Thanks both :)
I just got a new TV at the weekend, a Panasonic EX700 50" (4K and HDR). I couldn't stretch to an OLED and this was the best alternative I could find in my range. I did lower my expectations, knowing it can't compete with an OLED but it has blown me away so far! I can't wait to try ROTR, Diablo 3 and Halo 5.
Yes, Gears 4, Forza 7, Halo 5, etc.
Yes, Xbox One X will generally play multiplats better than the PS4Pro. I am sure there will be some variance, but it should mostly learn towards the X.
Is there a good list of exclusives somewhere? I'm honestly not sure besides like Forza and Sunset Overdrive I think it was called.
Does anyone know how the community of Elder Scrolls Online is on Xbox Live? Is it active? Is it social? Is it friendly?
I picked it up REALLY cheap on PC early this year but might try to goad some of my Xbox Live buddies to play with me if there's a fairly active external community to play alongside. Game was pretty fun, and I did play for a while with a controller and didn't mind, just wondering if the crowds are there.

Crazy right? I went in with crazy high expectations and it exceeded them. I love the camera work. It's next level.
Thanks! I'm just not sure where I can buy those monoprice cables, the cheapest shipping is $69 to Sweden from their website so it'll still be a crazy expensive cable before I get it :/
But I can do another search for just that sticker at the stores in Sweden, I can't be the only person with this problem so I'm thinking that cables like that should exist here too.
I'm a small minded filthy American so I didn't realize you were in Sweden. I'm sure they have something similar close by.
Heh no worries, I know what to look for now at least, sticker first, specs later :)
If you are an achievement Hunter the Fast and Furious stand alone is an easy source of cheevs.

In so torn what to pickup. I have a 60 Vizio from 2013. Originally thought it was a 65, so been on the hunt for a 70-75.
For the Motorsport series just go for FM7.
As for the Horizon series, they are each unqiue imo as they feature various locations to drive in. FH1 (BC on the XB1 family) has a Colorado setting, while FH2 is southern France with the Riveria, FH3 is set in Australia. Both those latter games are current gen and look stunning. I find their singleplayer modes both fantastic.
I think it is amazing that basically every single German who bought an X is in this very thread... ;-P
j/k of course - there are dozens of us!
Well, I haven't seen Czech in here with X, but Germany is close enough...so better than nothing I guess. Aber, Ich verstehen nicht. Schweinhund.
I'll back ResidentDante on this one and say that they all have pretty unique personalities because of the locales and soundtracks. Forza Horizon 1 also had some leftover cheesy "rival" characters that disappear in 2 and 3 -- they're kind of the over-the-top dumb personalities that you'd find in older Need For Speed games, and are meant to be sort of game progression goalposts. I think they're a lot of fun, but they are definitely stupid and appeal to the cheese-loving side of me, so your mileage may vary. I'm also a resident of the real-world Colorado, and seeing Horizon 1's fictional analog is entertaining -- they certainly nailed the general vibe and look of Colorado locales, but nothing specific is ever actually established.
Horizon 2 still has the most memorable licensed soundtrack in my own opinion (they're all great, though), but it's overall vibe lacks the same personality as the first game, IMO. Still, its Southern France setting is super gorgeous and stands out from the other two games.
Horizon 3 is probably the most robust and fine-tuned gameplay-wise, and its Hot Wheels expansion is insane and very fun to experience. If you HAVE TO go with just one for now, make sure it's this one. Fictional analog of Australia, personality is injected back in to be somewhere between the first and second games (just the right mass-appeal balance, I feel), and probably the most diverse locale yet -- forests, outback, a smaller version of a Sydney-esque city scape, all in one open world map.
For the Motorsport games? Just buy the latest one.
I'm not that far from the Czech border, if that's any solace...
Your German is good enough to participate in the German thread btw. xD
Some good 'ol Sudetenland joke : D And don't worry, my favorite internet humor "is of" Polandball, so that was not meant to be offensive in any shape or form. Good to see, that I am part of the west : D
Yea enjoyed the begging stretch though never got too far in an AC game before so don't really compare it to other AC games, do see myself completing this one though (played a lot of 1 and tried to get int black flag but couldn't).
Well, going there for music, being kid in exposure of MTV.de, Viva, Viva Plus left a mark on me. Díky moc : P
Maybe they're impressed enough with the buttery smoove performance already and don't want to do anything to drop it?
I had to return the 4k tv I bought last week because it was defective and they didn't have another of the same model in stock so it's back to my 1080p display for now. :(
Thankfully the super sampling looks really good so I'm not too annoyed.

That's annoying :-(. I have a Samsung that is 7 months old and had 4 replacement screens and a new mainboard so far. First time it failed was the day before Destiny 2 came out. I was not happy.
I have a bit of an odd problem with my X. I have a pass code to sign in and if the xbox is in instant on mode it will never bring me to the screen where I enter the pass code. I wait for about a minute then get the oops something went wrong message and it does it over and over. If I hard reset then it works. If I leave the console in power saving mode then I have trouble turning the system on. I will have to press the power button several times before it boots (won't turn on with the controller at all in this mode).
Is my Xbox in need of repair or anyone else having this issue?
As far as performance goes, I love it and games play better and look incredible.

No I'm not part of any testing groups but it does sound like a software issue.
Anyone else use a passcode to sign in?
This doesn't sound encouraging.
Suggest calling XBOX support to troubleshoot.
Best case, you figure it out....worst case (hopefully) they expedite a new system your way in exchange for the faulty one.
Good luck
I don't know if this is really the right place to ask, but does anyone have any opinion/preference on the newer wireless headsets that are out? I wanted to get something fully wireless so I could more easily enjoy watching movies without being tied to a controller. The reviews on most of the turtle beaches seem to be a nightmare, so I've been wavering back and forth between the Rig 800lx, and the Razer Thresher. The rig seems great, but I kind of didn't want yet another dongle. The Thresher also seems nice, doesn't have any dongle whatsoever, but the reviews are almost universally for the ultimate edition, which does have all the dongles and stands that I'm really not interested in.
Anyone have much experience with either one?

I won't ever buy Turtle Beach again. Two different wireless headsets, generations apart... same hizzing noise apparently only 10% of the users can hear.
I am now considering a "good" wireless (not bluetooth) heaphones you use just for watching TV, without the microphone and stuff. I have bluetooth that I can connect to my TV but the audio quality is pretty poor.
Certainly a big deal if you're in a small room, Pro ends up sounding like a hoover at times (MGSV is still a joke in this regard lol)
I just wanted to post this too. I got Scorpio Edition last week and man I cannot hear the fan whatsoever whatever game I'm playing. This is the single most thing that impressed me the most since it's a powerful closed box. My PS4 Pro is so loud when playing Pro enhanced games, so fed up with the noise level on it :(
I agree, however installing games off disc seems louder than my Pro or my previous 1S, or even OG XB1. Luckily that's a very small percent of the time that my machine is on. I have yet to notice the fans during a game, and I've played Wolfenstein 2 and just started Origins.
Yep at night I have to 100 percent wear headphones when playing the Pro otherwise I'd have to crank the surround sound to hear and wake up everyone else.
I played 2 hours of AC:origins last night. My pro woulda exploded , the Scorpio didn't even make a noise. No headphones required.
Same here! I had my first "wooosh" yesterday while playing FFXV, scared the crap outta me man haha
