    teenage one blown all his cash on one.

    just going through setup. 577mb update done. installed youtube, glitch, upload, blueray player, Netflix. Any more free ones I need?

    not installed destiny yet. looks like you have to install full game to disk - not gonna get many games on the 350GB

    Do you still need the disk in drive to play the game - read that you don't, but surely everyone would install and then sell.

    Got the game without Kinect, but watching vids etc, looks like its important for PVR etc - reckon its something the lad will want to do. Is Kinect a must?

    You end up doing an update nearly every time u switch it on.

    Never used Kinect and got it on launch day

    If Destiny is like the 360 version then it installs 5GB and needs disc in to play

    U're right, 350gb int a lot

    U can connect your sky box to back of it and watch tv at same time, the only downside is u have to have xbox on if u only want to watch tv it doesn't act as a pass through

    Cheers. stuck in his bedroom, so TV not an option as he doesn't have a STB - freeview built into TV. He used to have Sky installed on his 360 and watch it online - cant believe it isn't available to stream on Xbox one, unless I haven't found it.

    You still need disc in drive unless you purchase digital version. You can also add external USB 3 drives to expand the storage. Or just uninstall games you dont' use often.

    Anyone interested in Fifa 15, you can buy the ultimate edition from the Indian Marketplace for £29-ish. Make the purchase, then switch back to UK and download the game. Should be £52.

    Wouldn't that be illegal? I.e. tax dodging?

    Re: Aye, fire away

    I'm guessing your paying the local tax in the country your purchasing it from. Same as buying from a non-UK web site. With it being a digital purchase, theres no 'import'.

    You can do the same on your iphone, by changing it to the US app store and buying from there.

    It probably breaks some of Microsoft Terms and conditions, but the loophole exists. £52 from UK or £29 from India for the same game.

    Re: Destiny

    Playing Destiny online isn't the problem. The fact that the game was so over hyped then proved to be one of the most repetative game's ever and one of the biggest let down's in modern gaming history that is its main problem.

    IMO of course :)
