    When it is fully on, please test it out and sign in to the Xbox.

    Can someone explain HDMI passthrough to me?

    I am not sure why so many people have reservations to turning on the One to watch TV. Use Instant On mode and its on in ten seconds and "Xbox On" can turn on your console, cable box and tv! Its easier than having to turn the TV and cable box on separately!
    And the console is designed to be always on for ten years! I don't get the argument that you don't want it on when watching TV.

    Rainbow Six Siege Thoughts, Ideas, and suggestions

    I have received an E-mail giving me a code to download Tom Clancy's rainbow six siege beta. Nowhere on the e-mail does it say only for X-box One, PS4 and PC. Since I have entered the code and attempted to download it and spent almost 2 hours with tech support
    to find it can't play on X-box 360 my question is.... Will it be available on the X-box 360?

    TitanFall Bundle Disc Drive Error

    why does the bundle have to be in a repair list, the console is the same as every other xbox one. The only legit reason EB shold not do an exchange for a new bundle is if you claimed the game code, and in that event I don't know why they would not just
    swap the cards with the code

    assuming the game was just a code in the box.
