Guessing that means I'll get little to nothing for trading it in.
 
I keep having to unplug my power supply for a few then plug it back in to get it to work. Eventually it will go out and I have to do it again. I'm assuming my power supply is going bad. Anyone else had this problem?
Same here where I have to wait for it to discharge. Orange light goes out.
 
So... my launch console is vintage. A classic!

Mike Ybarra has an informal look at the new dash.


Wow talk about listening to feedback. I have never seen so much involvement from company brass with gamers. That was some fast change already.
 
Gear nuke is claiming some Xbox One users are reporting there consoles are getting factory resets after the recent update.
According to reddit it's peeps in the Insider program or were in the Insider program. But select numbers.
 
When I turned my One S on Thursday morning it was like I was turning it on for the first time. I had to put all my information in again and download a new update. I have never been in the insider program or tried to get into it.
 
Since my power came back on last night our internet service has been out. I just woke up and set my XBox to offline mode was going to play Fallout 4 and now nothing on my XBox works says I need a internet connection even in offline mode. My XBox worked fine in offline mode before that update Thursday. Now it's a paper weight WTF!
 
I took my XBox to my parents house to use their internet to change some settings. My console is still set to my home console. I just put it into offline mode to test it out and nothing still works it says I need a internet connection for any game I try disc or digital.
 
I think I figured it out. I had to boot up a game while connected to the internet then once I put my console to offline mode that game works now. Problem is I have 182 games on my XB One and have to sync each game individually to my XB One again. This going to take awhile.....
 
I know I've posted something similar to this several times now (with links :p), but Xbox Wire posted it so one more time for anyone looking out for any of these:

New Xbox Wireless Gaming Headsets from LucidSound, Turtle Beach, and Razer Arrive This Fall

Xbox-Wireless-Post-Image-Hero-hero.jpg

At Xbox, we’re committed to providing new ways for gamers to play the games they want, on the devices they want, with the people they want. Last year, we announced an expansion of the Xbox Wireless ecosystem to include Windows 10 gaming PCs with integrated Xbox Wireless, and promised to deliver a range of truly wireless accessories. Today, we’re excited to share the line-up of Xbox Wireless gaming headsets that will be launching this Fall from our partners at LucidSound, Turtle Beach, and Razer. With the launch of these new products, Xbox has the largest variety of truly wireless headsets available for console gamers – no dongle required. Additionally, we’ve partnered with ASUS Republic of Gaming to deliver the ASUS G703 V1 – an all-new gaming notebook with integrated Xbox Wireless.

Xbox Wireless provides you with a best-in-class wireless gaming experience across Xbox One and Windows 10 PCs. Designed specifically for gaming, Xbox Wireless is the best way to hear every detail and communicate online without the mess of cables or the need for a dongle or base station. Each Xbox Wireless gaming headset supports the same great wireless reliability and range as our Xbox Wireless Controllers, and high-fidelity Windows Sonic audio that enables 7.1 virtual surround sound. Just like an Xbox Wireless Controller, gamers will be able to easily pair Xbox Wireless headsets with any Xbox One console — including Xbox One X, any Windows 10 PC that natively supports Xbox Wireless, or alternatively, any Windows 10 PC using the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10.

Read below for more details on the exciting new products and features:

Oh s***. Skyrim Special Edition is this weeks Free Play Days game if you guys are looking for something to play. I was literally just considering buying this a few days ago and now I get to play it free, lol.

Recommended mod for anyone looking for something crazy/different.

Man, I hate the art direction in this game :( Generic and boring...

Probably could be better but it's a start. We need more games like Super Lucky's Tale on Xbox. Should give me my Banjo/Conker fix at least until Rare finally gives us the real deal.
 


Up there with the best of the best narrative driven sci-fi (horror) games. Keep an eye on this one, very underrated IMO.

It's the sequel to an Oculus game, yeah. Doesn't excuse the Art direction.

Seems like a filler title at best, doubt it's going to sell very well at all but maybe some kids will talk their parents into it.
