I'm sure plenty of people are still playing Titanfall. It's gotta be doing better than Gears 2 at least, lol. I've been playing nothing but Gears the past few nights and it takes anywhere from 2-10 minutes to find a game.

Hmmm...well this was good timing. I was planning on buying Titanfall again today and then Major Nelson dropped the Deals with Gold which had Titanfall with 75% off.

So I got Titanfall for £6

Stop taking the wind out of his sails. Look at him up there, dancing his little heart out.

I re-connected my Xbox 360 up today to continue through my backlog of games and I remember there being a feature in which I could delete games that are 0%? I have a few on the Xbox One. Is there anyway I can use the 360 to delete the One games? because as far as I can see the Xbox One games don't show under the 360 achievements tab.
Well.. I'm about to fire up "Inside". Heard it was amazing! Going in in 3...2...1...
So, Inside is a really neat game. Lots of on the fly logic puzzles. Zero help or tutorials. Makes me think of a mix of Limbo, Abe's Oddessy, and Out of this World. Fantastic artwork and animation. It has those little details that make a game special. Control is smooth and intuitive, and it is VERY creative. It's a bit pricey at 20 dollars, especially if you factor in that it is supposed to only be three or four hours long. Still, it is very high quality, and I really want to signal to MS that I want more games like this.
HOW TO GET IT
• If your console is in Instant-On mode, it will download and install the update and reboot to standby.
• NOTE: Once the update is available, you can manually begin the update by launching the Guide and navigating to All Settings > System > Console info & updates.
• If your console hasn’t downloaded and installed the update by 1:00AM PDT 7/14/2016, you will be prompted to do so at that time.

OS version released: rs1_xbox_rel_1608.160710-1722
Available: 6:00PM PDT 7/12 (1:00AM GMT 13/7)
Thanks for helping us test the latest Xbox One update! We’re eager to show off the new features and experiences we’ve been working on. We’ve noted below a few important things to be aware of before you jump in.
• Certain content (games, apps, DLC) purchased in the new Store may only be available on consoles enrolled in the latest Preview update. This means…
• Games purchased on a console running the latest Preview update can only be played on that console or other consoles running the latest Preview update.
• Games purchased via Xbox.com can be played on any console.
• Games purchased on a console running the previous update can be played on any console.
• Certain parental control features aren’t functioning appropriately in the current build. As a result, we encourage users to exercise caution when letting children access a console that is using the latest Xbox One update until these issues are resolved.
• We’ve added several settings that are already found on Windows today. These include SmartScreen Filter, which sends URLs you visit in apps to Microsoft to check against a list of potentially harmful sites, and advertising ID, which helps Microsoft present you with more personalized ads in Universal Windows Apps. You can choose to turn these off and manage your preferences for how Xbox One uses your information in Settings.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
• Cortana
Thanks for helping us test Cortana on Xbox One! We’ve received tons of excellent usage data and feedback, leading to dozens of improvements. While we continue to train Cortana, if you choose to opt out of Cortana, the “Xbox…” legacy voice command will be enabled.
If you choose to opt-out of Cortana, please be aware of the following:
o Headset voice control support will be disabled.
o Voice dictation will be disabled.
o Universal Windows apps voice features will no longer function.
o Only “Xbox…” legacy voice commands will be recognized.
If you wish to opt-out of Cortana and use the “Xbox…” legacy voice commands, launch the Guide, navigate to All Settings > System > Cortana settings, and flip the first toggle to Off.
At this time we’re also disabling Cortana for France, Italy, Germany, and Spain, as support for these regions was only planned to be available during this preview period. For now, please continue to use and give feedback on the “Xbox…” legacy voice commands in these regions.

Xbox at gamescom 2016
It’s under five weeks until gamescom 2016 and I’m excited to share the news that Xbox will give our fans the opportunity to get hands-on with the most anticipated titles for 2016 and 2017, across Xbox and Windows 10. From our stellar lineup of blockbusters, including Gears of War 4, Forza Horizon 3, Halo Wars 2, ReCore and Sea of Thieves, to a host of ID@Xbox titles including We HappyFew, Everspace and Cuphead, we can’t wait for our fans to play. This year we’re also in a brand new location – you’ll be able to find us in Hall 8 of the Koelnmesse near the north entrance.
While we will not be hosting a media briefing this year, we’re planning a new and more intimate Xbox FanFest experience for our fans across Europe and worldwide attending gamescom 2016. We will be sharing more details on our gamescom 2016 Xbox FanFest soon.
We had a record-setting E3 and we were overwhelmed by the response. Xbox unveiled a new family of Xbox One devices, a host of new Xbox Live features and Xbox’s biggest games lineup ever on Xbox One and Windows 10. We also announced Xbox Play Anywhere, a new program which lets gamers buy a game once and play it on both their Windows 10 PC and Xbox One. Our E3 announcements showed Xbox’s commitment to offering gamers a future that goes beyond console generations and one that offers them the choice and freedom to play the games they want, with the people they want and on the devices they want.
At gamescom 2016 we’re excited to bring even more of these experiences into the hands of our fans. gamescom is always one of my favourite shows, and I’m excited to attend and spend time with everyone in Cologne.
Here’s to a great show, bis bald!
See below for the show opening times.
The Xbox booth at gamescom
Wednesday, August 17 – 9:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. CEST (press/trade only day)

Anybody else have their dash telling them their Xbox Live is about to expire even though you still have several months left on it?
