It is clever, I completely reset the whole thing and formatted the disc yet it still remembered my pathetically useless progress in Assassin's Creed...  lol:

I've mentioned it before but it should just be £1 for the months trial and that gives you access to all these..

If you want something that will keep you going for a while Fallout 76 is pretty good now. Plus there is a friendly player base so don't panic if a high level player suddenly charges towards you, they are probably about to give you a load of stuff.  Thumbs:

So what's the verdict so far?

- back on eBay it goes
- back in the cupboard it goes
- it's good fun at times
- who needs a better model this is wonderful
- Got to get the latest model
- So good, haven't eaten or washed for a week
- Have become a mere biological accessory to X-Box supreme ruler of the planet
Well, whatever, nevermind

The technology is amazing, gaming at 4K is incredible...  Thumbs:

Haven't played it too much yet, keep getting killed in Assassin's Creed and got stuck in the early stages of Tomb Raider. I'm not really used to that jump/swish/block/run stuff yet...  redface:

Looking forward to Red Dead Redemption arriving (probably Monday now evil:) - the reviews on-line look incredible.

Again, from YouTube reviews I can't see any reason to upgrade to a much more expensive Xbox S or X - although no doubt in time they'll produce some exclusive 'killer game' that requires one.

Overall, very pleased with what I've got for what I've paid.  Thumbs:
