Oh look, asshats are putting them on ebay.

I really with Ebay and the console manufacturers would think of a way to stop this.

Tbf a few folk on here have got pre orders for multiple stores so wouldn't be surprised if they were going on ebay as well

I tell you guys, the run up before Christmas will see these selling for £1,000 on ebay

 

[Squink]

If MS release another huge batch of preorders most of those scalpers will lose money, or at least be left trying to shift stock they didn't want.

 

[MassiveJim]

Why did you not try another store?

Smyths - wouldn't load
Very, didn't have them showing until I got back from school run then they had sold out
MS - couldn't checkout just got an error
Argos out of stock
Currys - Huge que
Game - wouldn't load

Didn't know about AO and a couple others till it was too late

I'm not too sure, there's a lot of sold listing at the 6-700 mark. It may only be the really greed ones that may lose out.

Series S still available on Amazon.

You can share games you buy this way, but you cant play the same game on two different consoles. Ie you have to be playing different games.

When you say "buy", you mean download from Gamepass store? What if you buy two different versions of COD for example, one digital and the other physical ... can you play them both online together on two different profiles?

Queued for an hour on Game for the all access, got to the front of the queue then we are currently closed for site maintenance

 

[Robdav]

To add/confirm. You can both be playing a shared game at the same time, works perfectly for me and my brother whether that be a store game or a Gamepass game.

Loads of info online on how to set this up.

Amazon worked like a charm. Any good games releasing with this? Any accessories I should pick up? Battery chargers etc? I know nothing

Shopto have Series X/S controllers up for pre order now. Seems to be £5 cheaper than everywhere else.

 

[Soulja]

I've ordered 2 as I wanted to be sure I get one I'll be cancelling one of them closer to release.

Thanks bru, appreciate the confirmation.

Looks like Smyths fell over before any pre orders were actually made, thats impressive going.

 

[xb8browney]

I've kept my currys order and cancelled my amazon order.

 

[deaglecat]

Xbox one controllers also work with this right ? Just wondering about a 2nd controller...

I thought eBay had a policy that specifically was aimed at combating this? Like you had to have the actual product and it couldn't be for things not owned? Maybe I'm making that up, but Im sure I remember reading something like that.
