Xbox Series X / S

Can any of you guys recommend a good media remote for the XSX?

I have a Rii Mini that I plan on testing as soon as I get my Xbox... will update on how good it works or not. Been using it with Media PC + Kodi and it works very well.

Failing that I need to buy a Xbox Keyboard for my controller and media Remote as well.
 
1 Day to go people.....

I feel like a kid the night before Xmas :D

Same!

For those who ordered from Nedbank Avo, are you sure you are going to get your consoles tomorrow? It sounds like my extra controller and play and charge kits are only coming next week.

Luckily I ordered the console itself from Takealot.
 
Yeah you can still gameshare

Cool, if anyone wants to share, I'll probably only have something to offer after (next) black friday.

Awesome! I'm glad. I wish they sent out the other stuff early too.

I got a random EAZYT***** tracking number via SMS, and it made sense that it could only be this. 5 Minutes later I was speaking to a random girl in an office, that actually recognized my order destination based on the orders she packed/saw on the floor and confirmed my order from memory. She mentioned the xbox and the controller(s), so I'm quite sure it is being shipped out together?

Maybe I just got unlucky with the controllers. Mine hasn't shipped yet. I contacted them about it because the order said delivery by the 7th of November and a guy phoned me and said it will be shipped this week and should only get to me next week.

When did you order? They might've put priority on the xbox orders though. Another possibility is that Avo (did you contact Avo directly?) have no idea what is going on at the distribution level. When I contacted Avo they gave me the same story about orders only shipping this week.

That's interesting. I hope you are right. I did contact Avo directly. I ordered on the 23rd of September.
 
My wife wants me to wrap it for Xmas day :(

You think I could squeeze the old xbox1 into the shipping box ?! hahahahaha
Almost in the same boat - I'll be adding it to the network and AV ""setup"", and I am 99% sure that the kids won't even realise it is there. The idea is to keep it 'hidden' till the exams etc are over.


Push it harder!! Will you be collecting or are they delivering?
 
As a newbie to the console world, any suggestions for the first few games to try out? I don't really care for the genre, just want something to jump into. I'll be doing the whole Xbox gold + upgrade into gamepass tonight as well

Single or multiplayer?

Something like Red Dead Redemption 2 is great way to start if you like immersive single player games, although not technically next-gen it still looks amazing. I'm also a big fan of the Tomb Raider reboots especially Rise of the Tomb Raider. Most of the other single player games on my list are Playstation exclusives though.

For multiplayer I must say Modern Warfare / Warzone are definitely one of the best arcade shooters / battle royale I've played, it's lots of fun if you have mates to squad up with.
