Oh, it’s gone again. I was able to browse the store for a few minutes.

In other words, I was sort of right. Whatever coding remains from the original version that needed the One to remain online otherwise it's a no-go is probably what's being talked about.

Yes. I choose my gamer tag in the early days, and I guess all three character tags are taken now, or youre not allowed to have three.

Is there any more news about the Xbox live signing in bru-ha-ha? I can't play Assassin's Creed as I'm not signed in!

Edit: Nope, hang on, I'm in!

Makes sense really, Xbox is the game brand it should all be under that banner.

BT Sport is now available on Xbox, via a series of convoluted payment plans:

BT Sport is now available to watch in more ways than ever before thanks to the introduction of a new large-screen app available on Xbox, Samsung Smart TVs and Apple TV.

Initially allowing access to BT Sport 1, BT Sport 2, BT Sport 3, ESPN, BoxNation and the BT Sport Extra channels, the app is available on the new platforms to existing BT Sport customers at no extra charge*.

Launching in time for the UEFA Champions League knockout rounds – starting next Tuesday with the huge Manchester United v Paris Saint-Germain clash – the app will also include on-demand content, highlights, TV listings and the BT Sport 4K UHD channel later this year**.

This enhancement will ensure live sport in stunning ultra-high definition is available to more fans, by making these devices another way to access 4K content on TV.

The app will enable customers to access BT Sport without the need for a set-top box, view content via a second screen at home and allow those with a digital subscription to watch on a big screen.

New to Xbox one and having an issue with resuming suspended games when turning the Xbox One X back on - I get a message saying something about user account being swapped and live not being accessible (although it is). I then get booted back to the main game menu (game in question is D4). Not sure if this applies to other games. The game does not fully exit to be clear, it's kind of equivilant to selecting a "quit to main menu" option in a game. Kind of annoying as it's a long load time from the main menu.

Is this a common issue? Game specific?
Thanks if anyone can help....

It's a good thing what Microsoft are doing, and that's a great advert. Showing kids with disabilities there is so much risk of making the ad mawkish or 'worthy' but I think the tone here is perfect; regular kids who love to play games but showing they have extra challenges and showing that the adaptive controller can help them. Playing it at the Super Bowl too so it reaches a massive mainstream audience in the US.

Do you have 'instant on' mode set up on your Xbox One or are you turning it fully off?

Some games are a bit prone to glitching out when doing the automatic resume, but they're usually the online multiplayer type titles. Not sure why D4 should cause a problem.

Instant on is...on. Will try a different game and see if the same issue occurs there. Bit of a shame as I love the resume feature on my PS4 and it has never gone wrong for me in 3 years. Have also done a full power cycle.

I’m not sure it’s an actual feature of Xbox. I have never been able to get it to work.

Same for downloading in sleep mode. Whenever I have tried instant on and turn the console off my Xbox doesn’t continue downloading

I found it only really works if you use ethernet and not WiFi.

Well downloading while in standby definitely works, when I had my hard drive fail I often left tens of games downloading while I went to bed, and when I woke up they would all be installed.
