Xbox One : Thread 03

[Neon Ignition]

My local has the demo pods for both consoles but both were turned off. XBO is big but tbh not as big as I'd feared, doesn't look so immensely bigger than PS4 as it seemed, should just about fir both in. They look really similar, the missus thought I was taking the p*** and two units of the same console rather than two seperate makers machines.

I'm thinking about how I'm going to fit mine in too. Hoping I can move my Wii U over more towards where I have my PS3 at the minute (due to ps4's smaller size) for the increased size of the Xbox One compared to my 360 Slim.

[Neon Ignition]

I've gone for the PS4's vertical stand, without it I don't think I'd stand a chance.

[Family Fry]

Well there's a big hole where my ps3 used to be, so xbox one will squeeze in there nicely.

Just checked my order status and shopto hasn't give me any points for FORZA 5??damn you

It's just poor practice, Game tends to cancel it's reward system on big launch days so you can't redeem your points too which is counter-reward. Either run the scheme or don't.

Is that a recent thing? Never something I encountered during my time there.

Na it says on POS for the Xbox One pre orders on all packages.

Earn ?x.xx of reward points.

Guy told me today I would get ?9.40 for my main bundle.

Edit
AHHH you mean redeem you points against consoles?

[EvilBoris]

I'm prepaying for mine a couple of days before, that'll solve that problem.

[BIG EDD]

It is strange as they are always bang on with the rewards points as soon as you pay for a game.
i'll wait until my xbox has been dispatched and check then

I'm assuming so, I don't remember having the issue in the past but for recent releases like GTAV and CoD you could earn but not redeem on release day. Originally I was going to use my points on the XBO but now I'm playing it safe and just sitting on them.

So it is normal practice for Shopto to not give reward points for hardware?

No i got points for my Wii U it seems they have stopped just before its got to this launch.

Yeah since the Wii u last year they for some reason have stopped giving reward points for any hardware, which i know is probably for cost reasons but have to say its put me off buying hardware from them in the future. May as well buy from Game or Tesco etc as they do give reward points.

If ever I have wanted to wish 5 days of my life away then its the next 5 days simply cannot wait for Wednesday and the Xbox One Tour and then friday and the Xbox One then a week Friday for my PS4 what a magical end to a very hard year for me.
