Everything you need to know about the Xbox Design Lab 2017 custom wireless controller. The online service is similar to the Moto Maker system from Motorola that lets you customize hardware, but in this case you customize an Xbox wireless controller instead of a phone. Announced at E3 2017, Microsoft has updated the Xbox Design Lab offering with support for more countries and new features. I got my hands on a new custom controller to see how the process works. What's new in 2017. The overall theme of Xbox Design Lab is the same with the ability for users to choose different color schemes on the Design Lab site, mix and match buttons, and even get a custom laser-engraved message. The big news though is finally those outside of the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico can enjoy the program. Gamers in the U.K., France, and Germany can order today from the Xbox Design Lab site, and additional European countries should be added this summer. Besides greater availability there are some welcomed fresh design options as well for 2017, including: Four new color options — Ink Blue, Mineral Blue, Sierra Brown and Desert Tan. Eleven new thumbstick colors including Glacier Blue, Zest Orange, Retro Pink, Electric Green, Robot White, Lightning Yellow, Ash Gray, Ink Blue, Mineral Blue, Sierra Brown and Desert Tan. New metallic finishes for D-pads and triggers to add a premium look to your controller. Black rubberized grips for added comfort and control. Some of those features, like the rubberized grips and metallic finishes, are direct descendants from the super-premium Xbox Elite Controller, trickling down to the more affordable wireless Xbox controller. How it works. The Xbox Design Lab system is straightforward. You just navigate to xbox.com/xboxdesignlab in your web browser and log in with your Microsoft Account. Pricing for the base model begins at $79.99. The controller is the same as the one that comes with the Xbox One S, which means it supports Xbox One, Xbox One S, and the forthcoming Xbox One X via the Xbox wireless connector system. Even more exciting, this controller supports Bluetooth 4.0 so it can work with any Windows 10 PC of Surface as well. The Xbox Design Lab site makes picking your controller a breeze. To customize the controller, you select from eight sections including the controller's body, back, bumpers, triggers, D-pad, thumbsticks, ABXY buttons, and View & Menu buttons. All of those can have their own color schemes. Changes are made in real-time, and there is a 360-degree model that lets you see what your controller will look like when finished. For the new features mentioned earlier, those are new options found under triggers, D-pad, and back. Nothing is free, of course, so Microsoft charges you a few extra dollars for the more premium features. Here is what they cost in addition to the $79.99 base price: For the metallic triggers and D-pad, there are no color restrictions. You can choose all 19 colors for regular or metallic options, which is excellent. The laser engraving is limited to just 16 characters and costs an extra $10. New rubberized grips are only in black, but are highly recommened. All said, if you max out your Xbox Design Lab controller the total cost is $96.96 (although when we shot the video in this post the rubberized grips were extra, bringing the total cost to $103). The controller ships from China and can take up to two weeks to reach your home. However, the one for this review showed up in about five days. Shipping is free. Xbox Design Lab controller for 2017 – How is it? As someone who regularly uses the Xbox Elite Controller, I enjoyed the new Design Lab one. The Elite Controller suffers from one single drawback in 2017: it lacks Bluetooth. That makes it ideal for console gaming, but it lacks wireless connectivity for most PCs. The Design Lab controller, however, does not suffer from this deficiency making it a better purchase for some gamers. The metallic finishes for triggers and D-pad feel more premium. While they are not solid metal, they are cooler to the touch and add some nice pizzazz as well since they shimmer in the light. While those metallic finishes are cosmetic, it's the rubber grips that I enjoy the most. The material is not overwhelming, but it adds a subtle contrast with the plastic Xbox controller's body since this is where three of your fingers resides while gaming. The rubber grips are highly recommended (especially since they're now free). I skipped the new color options, but those are more neutral earth tones that are less cartoonish than some of the brighter more contrast-laden ones. The metallic electric green really looks stunning. The build quality is excellent too. There are no creaks with the controller when twisting, and the included two AA batteries in the box mean you are ready to go when your box arrives. Even the packaging is well done. Xbox Design Lab is (still) a winner. I was a huge fan of the Xbox Design Lab idea in 2016, and it's even better this year. The biggest news is that the U.K. and Europe can finally now get in on the action (and additional European countries will be added this summer). Those countries benefit from a year of Microsoft improving manufacturing and getting feedback from those in the U.S. too. For instance, last year's model had ABXY buttons that rattled slightly whereas this year's edition does not. Everything about the program has been tweaked, and those new metallic finishes and rubberized grips are definite recommendations. If you are in the market for a new Xbox controller, or just want an additional one for your Windows 10 PC, look at the Xbox Design Lab. The only downside I see is trying to decide your picture-perfect design. Microsoft boasts that there is a total of eight million different configurations with the Design Lab now, and that can cause some stress – but it's worth it for your very own controller.

Устранение неполадок с аккумуляторным блоком зарядного устройства для геймпада Xbox One. Если аккумуляторный блок Xbox One не заряжается при подключении беспроводного геймпада Xbox One к консоли через USB-кабель, то, возможно, аккумулятор пришел в негодность (такое случается со всеми аккумуляторами). Срок службы аккумулятора зависит от частоты перезарядки. Если аккумулятор перезаряжается часто, то срок его службы меньше, чем при редком использовании геймпада. Перед заменой проведите следующие тесты: Проверка кабеля. Проверьте надежность подключения кабеля на обеих концах. Попробуйте подключить другой кабель. Иногда в кабеле возникает перемычка или наводка, мешающая его работе. В зарядном устройстве Xbox One используется стандартный кабель USB — micro-USB. Можно воспользоваться любым кабелем USB — micro-USB, чтобы проверить наличие неполадки кабеля. Очистка контактов батареи. Выньте батарею и очистите контакты аккумуляторного блока сухой тканью или ватным тампоном, смоченным изопропиловым спиртом. Не используйте воду и химикаты — это может повредить контакты. Проверка беспроводного геймпада. Вставьте в геймпад батарейки AA и проверьте его работу. Попробуйте заменить аккумуляторный блок Xbox One. Если геймпад работает с другим аккумуляторным блоком или батарейками AA, то причина не в геймпаде. Гарантия на аксессуары Xbox One. Сведения о гарантии на консоли Xbox One и аксессуары см. на странице Гарантия на продукт: консоль Xbox One. Использование аккумуляторного блока зарядного устройства. Вставьте аккумуляторный блок, поставляемый вместе с зарядным устройством Xbox One, в свой беспроводной геймпад Xbox One и зарядите его с помощью кабеля зарядки, входящего в комплект. Установка аккумуляторного блока. Откройте крышку батарейного отсека. Вставьте перезаряжаемый аккумуляторный блок Xbox One стороной подключения вперед, выровняв его по точкам подключения в отсеке. Батарея вставляется только в этом направлении. Верните крышку батарейного отсека на место. Зарядка батареи. Подключите кабель зарядки к USB-порту, расположенному в передней части геймпада. Подключите другой конец кабеля зарядки к USB-порту на Xbox One. Если консоль Xbox One выключена, включите ее. Консоль должна быть включена после подключения геймпада, иначе зарядить батарею не удастся. Однако по желанию вы можете снова ее выключить. Индикатор на кабеле для зарядки будет светиться оранжевым. Это указывает на то, что батарея заряжается. Когда аккумуляторный блок полностью зарядится, индикатор станет белым. Вы можете играть c геймпадом, пока батарея заряжается. Все сигналы геймпада будет передаваться через кабель, пока он не будет отсоединен. Когда аккумуляторный блок будет полностью заряжен, можно оставаться подключенным к консоли через кабель для зарядки — это не приведет к разряду или повреждению батареи. Вы также можете зарядить батарею, подключив геймпад и кабель зарядки к любому источнику питания USB и применив другие сертифицированные USB-кабели. Однако в таких случаях время зарядки может отличаться. В беспроводном геймпаде Xbox One будут работать стандартные AA (LR6) батареи, а также аккумуляторы AA (LR6). Обычные перезаряжаемые батареи в геймпаде не заряжаются. Перезаряжайте другие батарейки способом, рекомендуемым их производителем. Устранение неполадок. Время от времени стоит очистить контакты батареи сухой тканью или ватным тампоном, смоченным изопропиловым спиртом. Не используйте воду и химикаты — это может повредить контакты. Если светоиндикатор кабеля для зарядки не горит, убедитесь что батарея на месте, а кабель правильно подсоединен к геймпаду и консоли. Все важные сведения по технике безопасности при использовании батареек с беспроводным геймпадом Xbox One можно найти в руководстве пользователя Xbox One.

Xbox one s controller laden

Microsoft’s big Xbox Reveal event is finally here, and Don Mattrick took to the stage to announce the Redmond company’s next-generation console effort: Xbox One. Laden in a glossy, black finish, Microsoft has really stepped up its design game with this one, and with a real focus on software innovation and interactive applications, the general user experience with the Xbox One looks enthralling at first glance. With so much of a furor surrounding what the console would actually be called, it was nice to see such monikers as "Xbox 720" and "Xbox Infinity" never bore fruit, and although the console’s naming scheme moves things back to basics as it were, the Xbox One is anything but. One way to describe this new console is an amalgam of the traditional gaming portal and the modern set-top box. There’s a big emphasis on molding the entire entertainment experience into a singular entity, and therein lies the rationale behind the name. Microsoft wants the Xbox One to replace your DVD / Blu-ray player, your preexisting console, your set-top box; and from what we’ve seen so far, it has all of the ingredients to do so. Voice recognition software is integrated from the get-go, and allows you to control almost every aspect of the Xbox One. You can flit between your apps and live TV stream thanks to the new Instant Switching, and with an even deeper emphasis on Kinect than ever before, the appeal of the Xbox One simply cannot be overstated. Different apps/elements can run side-by-side, allowing users to, say, browse the Web on IE while watching a downloaded video, and on first impressions, it looks as though Microsoft has really presented the gaming and entertainment world with something to ponder. Console and Kinect hardware gets a complete new look, so does the game controller with redesigned d-pad. We’ll be taking a closer look at the console and its features in a post coming up very soon, so stay tuned!

Xbox One's February Update Still AWOL [Update: Rolling Out Now] Update Major Nelson has confirmed that the February system update is rolling out for Xbox One right now, adding the controller battery indicator, storage management, install lineup control and USB keyboard support. The Major also offers the following tip for calling up the battery indicator on the dashboard: "Once you get the update, you can press the Xbox button to see the battery indicator on screen in the lower right next to the clock." Original Story Originally promised for February 11th, Xbox One's first proper system update is still nowhere to be seen, and Microsoft is remaining tight-lipped on an ETA for the patch. So where is it? Larry 'Major Nelson' Hyrb confirmed that "as soon as I get more information from my engineering team, I'll share". "I don't have all the details," Hyrb claimed on Reddit . "Things are moving quickly and all the teams are working extra hard. I don't really like giving dates either. Too risky." The February update is scheduled to bring with it a battery indicator for your controller, HDD storage management, USB keyboard support and the ability to control your install lineup. It's set to release ahead of another major update in March , set to implement an array of improvements to Xbox One's multiplayer and parties. "We've got a lot of great stuff in store for Xbox One. It took years for the Xbox 360 to become a mature, feature laden platform. We've got the same long game planned for the Xbox One," Major Nelson added.

Where to buy Microsoft Xbox One S: The Xbox One S is a mea culpa in the shape of a white plastic box. It takes all the stuff that didn’t make sense about Microsoft’s third proper games console and gives it a right royal heave ho. Kinect? Kablamo. A £400+ asking price? Eradicated. That monumentally fugly power brick? First to the wall. Three years after the fact, the Xbox One S looks and feels like a more enticing machine than the bog standard PlayStation 4. Better still, it now comes with a 4K Blu-ray player, support for HDR gaming and a sleek design that doesn’t make you want to barf on first sight. Job done then? Would that it were so simple. As you well know, reader, that console doesn't exist anymore. It's been replaced by both the PS4 Slim and the 4K PS4 Pro. Plus, Microsoft’s next Xbox - the truly 4K Xbox Project Scorpio - is set for release later this year. Confused? We don't blame you. So let's make this as simple. The One S is the best Xbox you can buy, but not the best console. That title belongs to the PS4 Pro. If you fancy a crack at exclusives like Forza Horizon 3, an affordable 4K Blu-ray player or want to play your Xbox 360 games on a shiny new machine, the One S is well worth your cash. Better still, it's going for a steal right now. Xbox One S Design: 40% smaller, infinitely better. OK. Let’s start with the easy stuff. As games consoles go, the Xbox One S is rather handsome indeed. Just as no one goes to a museum solely for its gift store, looks are still an important part of a games machine’s make up. If you’re going to use a console every day or so, you’d rather it didn’t share the same unedifying visage as an own-brand Argos VHS player. Mercifully, the One S leaps over this low bar as though it’s Jess Ennis competing in the hurdles at a school sports day. Its white shell and dotted grill are really quite striking and a 40% trim in size means this console is far from the behemoth it once was. Best of all, it does away with the power brick needed to run previous Xbox Ones - a revelation of monumental proportions. Why? In essence, the power brick was an arse. A hairy, pimpled arse that became symbolic of some quite dreadful design choices. Upon taking the thing out of the console’s box, your first thought was to how quickly you’d be able to scurry it out of sight again. Now that faff has been consigned to history, what you’re left with is a device you can actually display with pride in your living room. To that end, the One S has been designed to work upright and comes with a complimentary plastic stand to adeptly prop it up. So if you want to plonk it right on the side of your TV, that’s a thing you can now do. You probably won’t, but it’s good to have the option. Xbox One S controller: gets a grip. One of the most significant cosmetic changes that’s been touted about the One S is its new controller, which is near-on identical to the original One controller. Its control sticks are made from a slightly more durable material, it’s got a greater wireless play range than before and its back is populated with these neat dimples. In day-to-day terms, you’ll struggle to notice the difference. At least we did. Those dimples are meant to aid your grip on the controller after a particularly frantic Rocket League session, but they’re too small to have a significant impact on your gaming. Even if you regularly sweat like a sumo wrestler in a sauna. That’s OK though. The original Xbox One controller had a sturdy weight to it and sat well in your hands, and this one does exactly the same. A far greater annoyance is that it hasn’t been updated with built-in wireless charging. It still doesn’t even come with a charging kit. Being told you need to load up a gamepad with a fresh pair of AA batteries only to remember you were too lazy to pick any up on your way home from work is one of life’s most blood-curdling frustrations. Environmentally speaking, this routine is incredibly wasteful too. If the PS4’s controllers can be rechargeable as standard, there’s no good reason why Microsoft can’t enable the same. On the plus side, you do get a good deal of play out of your AAs. Casual gamers will only have to swap in a new set every month or so. Plus, the One S’ pad now gives you Bluetooth support, which is an absolute gift for PC gamers. Hooking this thing up to a Windows 10 PC or laptop is a cinch and means you don’t have you plug yet another cable or wireless adapter into your rig. Naturally, this is all part of Microsoft’s newfound Xbox and PC friendliness, which also includes Xbox Play Anywhere - buy a downloadable copy of a game on one platform and you can play it on the other, with progress and achievements synchronised across both. Admittedly the cost of buying a digital copy of a game in this way is far higher than simply buying a disc, but as any grandma worth her salt will tell you, ‘There’s no such thing as a free meal.’ Xbox One S 4K gaming: almost, but not quite. This is especially the case when it comes to the One S’ 4K capabilities. Put simply, if you don’t own a 4K TV and won't be upgrading to one anytime soon then don’t buy an Xbox One S. This shouldn’t be a particularly great revelation to anyone though. It’s a bit like saying, ‘If you don’t like chocolate then don’t go on the Cadbury’s factory tour’. More so than its newfound facelift, the Xbox One S is a console that’s being sold on its 4K and HDR [High Dynamic Range] capabilities. In technical terms, this means the Xbox One S has an HDMI 2.0a port that enables a 4K 60Hz output. The Xbox One supports only HDMI 1.4a, which simply can’t handle 4K video or gaming. What does this all mean? The One S’ picture quality is, in theory at least, four times better than its elder sibling. Even if maths isn’t your strong point, you’ll know that’s quite a big difference. Better still, the One S is also the best value 4K Blu-ray player you can own by quite some margin. In contrast, Samsung’s UBD-K8500 player costs £380 and can’t play Tetris, let alone Gears of War 4 or Super Hot. If you’re looking to get more value out of your new 4K TV, buying either this console or the also 4K-capable PS4 Pro feels like a no-brainer. The only catch? 4K gaming on the Xbox One S isn’t really ‘true’ 4K. Confused? Allow us to get all techie on you. Xbox One S 4K gaming, explained. Every game for the Xbox One platform has been designed in high definition - mostly 1080p or a little below that. To display these games on a 4K screen, they’ll be upscaled to that resolution - and that process involves adding extra pixels where they’re not provided by game makers. Essentially, the device doing the upscaling - in this case the Xbox One S - is guessing what it thinks the missing pixels are supposed to be displaying. If you an original Xbox One into a 4K TV the same upscaling will take place as well, but it will be the telly doing it rather than the console, and the results are less impressive. Playing The Witcher 3 can give you all kinds of image processing problems unless you tweak your telly’s settings to adjust for them. Then it’s pretty good, especially when your screen isn’t dealing with a lot of motion. In contrast, the Xbox One S’ upscaling is stunning straight off the bat. The Siberian snow storm that opens Rise of the Tomb Raider looked absolutely glorious on our screen at home and we winced that little bit more in fear as Lara leapt from ice-laden mountain face to snow-swept crevasse. Because those pixels are added in, there are moments in close-ups where a hand or window ledge looks slightly coarser than it might have in HD, but we’re talking about very fine margins here. Besides, no console that’s out at the moment will offer you a dramatically better performance. Even Sony’s PlayStation 4 Pro. Xbox One S HDR: its ace in the hole. Not heard of HDR? Don’t worry - if you’ve bought a new 4K telly in the last six months there’s a good chance it’s got this spec built in, which means you’ll be can enjoy Gears of War 4 and Forza Horizon 3 in jaw-dropping quality right now. To continue with our egregious use of food metaphors, the difference between 4K without HDR and 4K with HDR is like eating a burger without cheese and bacon. It’s still great, but not cheese and bacon great. What HDR does is offer greater contrast between dark and light shades of colour for a more dazzling, dynamic picture. Imagine you’re watching a flash of white heat as plasma sears out of a Scattershot rifle in the next Halo game. With HDR and 4K enabled any muddiness that might occur when colours meet is near-on eradicated and you’re left with an image that pops out of the screen and sears your retinas (not literally). It’s awesome when you see the effect on movies and it should looks fanned special when gaming too. Mercifully for the movies part of this equation, there’s no such need to wait and see. PlayStation 4 Pro vs Xbox One S: which is best for 4K? Alright, so we'll just come out and say it: Sony’s PS4 Pro is a better 4K console but not by much. And it really depends on what game you're playing. Honestly, that's all most people will ever need to know about the difference between these two machines. Both use upscaling as standard and that means neither is a proper 4K console. Given it costs the best part of two grand to build an Uktra HD gaming PC, that should come as no surprise to anyone. Think of it like buying a bottle of milk. With both the One S and PS4 Neo, you’re essentially getting semi-skimmed 4K, as opposed to the creamy, full-fat option. Either way you’ve got a delicious beverage right there. Why is the PS4 Pro a better 4K machine? It can run some games in 4K, such as The Last of Us and Rise of the Tomb Raider, and its upscaling is more refined. Especially when it's running a select number of games that have been patched specifically for the console. You see the Pro generally gives you a 1440p output (read: 2K resolution), which means its picture is still upscaled for 4K screens. Instead of of upscaling an image by 4x like the One S, it does so by 2x. If someone put a gun to our head and told us which game looks better - Forza Horizon 3 on the One S or Uncharted 4 on the PS4 Pro - we’d probably end up with grey matter scattered over Stuff HQ. They're both gorgeous and that's that. Plus, it's their HDR capabilities that really make the difference. Xbox One S 4K Blu-ray Player: great value, great performance. Sure, you can stream 4K from Netflix and Amazon, but here’s a secret - streamed 4K is not as lovely as 4K from a disc. Luckily, the Xbox One S supports all three. Unlike the PS4 Pro, which doesn't have a 4K Blu-ray drive. Not only are the One S’ 4K sources supported, they also get the HDR treatment, and from the dust and fire of Mad Max to The Revenant ’s hyper-visceral brutality, watching a 4K Blu-ray is the finest cinematic experience you can have in your living room. At £20+ per disc it's also a mighty expensive habit to indulge in. Making the step up to 4K Blu-ray from standard 1080p Blu-ray isn’t quite the same leap as it was from VHS to DVD, but it’s still dramatic. Michael Fassbender’s furrowed brow in X-Men: Days of Future Past is so deep and well-defined you could build a small mining village in there, while watching sweat ripple off The Rock’s biceps in San Andreas is enough to make any man weep at the state of their own chicken wings. Despite this, true cinephiles are going to want to know how the One S shapes up against the best 4K Blu-ray player on the market: Panasonic’s DMP-UB900. We tested the two in a side-by-side comparison and the Panasonic fared best, but then it does cost £600. Study Quicksilver’s slow-mo jaunt around a heavily armed kitchen in X-Men and you’ll enjoy better-defined colours and sharper particle effects from the Panny. Droplets aren’t quite as well defined on the Xbox, while the ingredients scattered around the scene are ever so slightly more vivid and less true to life in terms of colours. Is that shortcoming in fidelity worth paying an extra £250 for? Probably not, especially given the feature list advantage that Microsoft’s console has over Panasonic’s Blu-ray player. Real AV aficionados might spot the differences, but most of us will be too busy scoffing popcorn and basking in the ultra-bright glow of HDR to worry whether Wolverine’s scowl is perfectly rendered to the n-th degree. Xbox One S build: Kinect, we hardly knew thee. Naturally, the Xbox One S’ 4K Blu-ray drive has caught the most attention in the run up to its release. Look beyond that innovation though and you won’t find much of note at all. Don’t be fooled by its dapper exterior, this is pretty much the same console as the original Xbox One - only it comes with a whopping great 2TB hard drive, new IR blaster and has had one of its USB ports shifted forwards to the front of the console. That crucially means it’s got exactly the same amount of processing power as ever before. In order to support HDR-enabled games, Microsoft has handed developers access to a little more of the Xbox One S’s CPU and GPU than they got with the Xbox One, but this won’t result in a tangible performance upgrade. In other words, FIFA 17 won’t look any better or play any smoother on the One S than the One. Gamers will only see the benefit when they play those HDR-friendly titles such as Gears of War 4 and Forza Horizon 3 . The idea behind this is pretty obvious: current Xbox One owners won’t end up as second class citizens. That’s fair enough… until you bear in mind that Microsoft has been less than clear on whether developers will end up making exclusive titles for its Project Scorpio machine. Introduced as ‘the most powerful console ever’ at E3 this year, it essentially guarantees the One S will be outdated in the space of a year. And while it’s clear that Kinect is no longer part of Microsoft’s Xbox plans, it’s a little galling that an extra adapter is required in order to connect to the One S a peripheral that the company once forced upon its customers. Xbox One S games: Halo from the other side. As anyone who owns a Wii U will know, having a fancy console is one thing and having enough games to play on it is another entirely. To misquote Jesus, ‘Man cannot live on Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker alone.’ Compared to the PlayStation 4, the Xbox One still doesn't boast the same calibre of AAA system sellers. That means for every Forza Horizon 3 there's a Halo 5: Guardians , ReCore or Dead Rising 4 - all of which were a bit rubbish. And Quantum Break was more of a love-hate affair than Ross and Rachel’s run on Friends. That's not to say the One S doesn't have some must-play titles to its name. SuperHot and Ori and The Blind Forest are excellent, while Gears of War 4 was a bloody, fun return for the cover shooter series. In comparison, the PlayStation 4 has Bloodborne , Uncharted 4 and The Last Guardian . Games you’ll skip out of work early to play and will keep raving about for months to come. Combined with the usual third-party fare of Battlefield 1 , FIFA 17 , Final Fantasy XV and plenty more, you certainly won’t be short of new stuff to play on an Xbox One S. And then there’s the old stuff to be digging back into. Xbox One S backwards compatibility: back to the future. After kicking up quite the palaver with its initial DRM plans for the Xbox One, Microsoft has seemingly bent over backwards to be as gamer-friendly as possible ever since. Most recently, it’s done this by suggesting cross-platform online play between Xbox and PlayStation consoles - should Sony ever decide to go along by the idea. Better still, over 200 games for the Xbox 360 have been made backwards compatible for the One, meaning the likes of Halo: Reach , Borderlands and Fable III are all free to replay. That’s whether you’ve held onto your discs for them or bought them digitally through the Xbox Store. It’s an immensely popular feature and with good reason: Sony’s PlayStation 4 again doesn't offer anything of the sort. Granted if you really want to play your old Xbox 360 favourites then you could always just dig out that console from the attic. It’s not half as convenient as redownloading Mirror’s Edge and hopping straight back into Glass City though. Upscaling a 720p game into 4K has the tendency to make it look mighty dated, but you'd expect as much. And if you missed any classics like Portal 2 , The Orange Box and The Witcher II the first time around? Then backwards compatibility is reason enough to invest in an Xbox One S. Xbox One S dashboard: summertime, feeling fine. Compared to its original incarnation, the Xbox One dashboard is a much cleaner affair to get to grips with. Now running with Windows 10 at its core, the operating system’s Summer Update gives you easier access to your games via the top right-hand side of the homescreen and has rejigged the Xbox Store so that games, movies and apps sit together in harmony instead of their former cluttered bedlam. Microsoft’s so-so voice assistant Cortana has also been baked into the dashboard, so you can ask it for the weather, whether Manchester United are still as woeful as they were last season or whether a day spent with Rare Replay is a valid use of your adult life. Actually, not so much with that last one but you get the drift. If you’re jumping aboard the Xbox One bandwagon for the first time with the One S, then it’s a good time to be doing so. Even though the console’s dashboard is still a tad too persnickety at times. Getting your 4K TV to play nice with the One S can also be a hassle at first. Upon installing the summer update you’ll be asked whether you want the Xbox to output 4K. Agreeing to this doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll be automatically treated to HDR as well though. In our experience, you’ll need to fiddle with your TV’s settings to be greeted with a list of green ticks in the ‘4K details’ troubleshooting menu. Microsoft Xbox One S Verdict. If the Xbox One S is meant to atone for the original One’s botched launch, it’s job done. This is a great 4K Blu-ray player, looks sensational with HDR enabled and does a fab job of upscaling your favourite games into Ultra High Definition. Perhaps most importantly, the One S is extremely well priced at £250 for its 500GB incarnation. That makes it the cheapest 4K console you can buy. Even though it's more expensive, not backwards compatible and lacks an UHD Blu-ray drive, Sony’s PlayStation 4 Pro is a better machine. Its upscaling is more refined and has a superior catalogue of exclusives. As much as games consoles nowadays want to be ‘home entertainment hubs’ you still buy them to have fun blowing stuff up, and the PlayStation 4 Pro does a better job of this the Xbox One S. Simple. So why should you buy an One S? Maybe you can't stand the sight of your old Xbox One or fancy a second console to sit alongside your PS4. Both reasons are more than good enough to make the upgrade. Just remember a superior Xbox Project Scorpio - the one with proper 4K - is due out later this year, and brace yourself for a serious case of FOMO in nine months or so. Voodoo Vince: Remastered.

Vince’s adventure takes him from the streets of New Orleans to the depths of a Louisiana bayou to find the whereabouts of his keeper, Madam Charmaine.

Falling safes, prickly pushpins, and bolts of lightning bring a whole new meaning to the phrase "no pain, no gain." • Magical voodoo world: Thrust into the depths of a twisted and dangerous world, Vince must trek through 30 detailed levels, including crawfish-laden swamps, a graveyard filled with imps and lost zombies, a fantastic French Quarter, and a network of boggy sewers. • Vehicles and minigames: As the game unfolds, Vince must master and pilot a number of vehicles, including a fanboat, a submarine, an airplane—and even a rat gives him a lift at one point. Vince must master one mind-bending minigame after another to complete his quest. • Dynamic cast of characters: No adventure would be complete without its host of surly characters. Offbeat creatures with all the charm of New Orleans are around every corner.

I loved this game on original Xbox and still do!! 103 out of 108 people found this helpful. One of the best! This game is the only reason I kept my original Xbox, but now it's back and even better! The story is fun to follow along with the characters. The music and environment in the game really feels like you're on the bayou in Louisiana. This is a classic that was drastically overlooked when it came exclusively to the original Xbox, but is one everyone should have, it has a bit of everything in it (puzzles, platform, story, great voice acting, polished graphics, humor, collection, RPG, acheivements, ect. ) The developers really put a lot into this game and it shows. It's also challenging for the most seasoned players of platformers/puzzle. I like many others am hoping for either DLC or a sequel. 🎮🏆👏 117 out of 125 people found this helpful. just what it was back in 2001 , a master piece. 24 out of 24 people found this helpful. MORE XBOX ORIGINAL GAMES. What a great remaster of a great xbox original game. Hopefully this is the beginning of more Xbox Original titles, coming to XB1. Splinter Cell Series. Pleeeease😁 52 out of 55 people found this helpful. A Game Deserving of a Franchise. Voodoo Vince was a hidden gem on the original Xbox. A cult favorite that can now find a brand new audience thanks to Beep Games, Clayton Kauzlaric (the game's creator), the Xbox One, and Phil Spencer. This game ranks among the best 3D collectathon platformers, like Spyro The Dragon, Banjo Kazooie, and Super Mario 64. Voodoo Vince is able to stand out on its own however, with unique gameplay mechanics and an interesting story set in New Orleans. The soundtrack also sets it apart from the competition with the sound of jazz, making each area memorable. Vince was the perfect mascot for the Xbox's more adult player base, but could appeal to everyone who enjoys action, platforming, puzzles, and good humor. This game deserves a sequel and with the lack of current Xbox exclusives, Vince could really establish himself alongside Master Chief and Marcus Fenix. Thank you to everyone who made this Remaster possible, it pleases fans of this game, like me and newcomers alike! 20 out of 20 people found this helpful. Platforming done right! The fun open levels with interactive puzzles and platforming challenges are topped with a gorgeous environment and spectacular music. A must-buy blast from the past! 48 out of 51 people found this helpful. Can't recommend it enough. One of my favorite games for the original XBox that was damned to undeserved obscurity. Gorgeous settings and catchy jazz music really brings home the New Orleans atmosphere while you and your sassy voodoo doll massacre baddies in one of the most creative ways I've seen. Favorite platformer by far. 91 out of 100 people found this helpful. one of the most under rated games of all time. I remember playing this demo as a child, when i saw the trailer for the first time i almost cried and bought it right away. It was amazing, funny, and not too challenging for kids and grown ups. I beat it in about 7 to 8 hours and it was never a dull moment, I wish this game gets the exposure it deserve what i know it might not cause people dont like different, they like the same old things. 54 out of 58 people found this helpful. Childhood Video Game! This game is truly amazing, the gameplay and soundtrack are unique. Youll have fun, from beginning to end. 54 out of 58 people found this helpful. One of my all time favorite games. This and cel damage were my favorite games to play when I was younger and having them both available for the xbox one makes me really grateful that i can play them anytime instead of having to play the original xbox. I wish there was a sequel to this game; but that will probably never happen. The game is a one of a kind platformer that is charming and has a great soundtrack by Steve Kirk, but once you finish it there isn't much to do after. But i already knew about that from playing it before. There are few differences i've noticed in the remastered version, the logo is different, dust bags (health) is purple instead of blue and is more detailed as it was just a outline of a dust bag. The soundtrack for the bone golaith is slightly different while the one for the level: Earth,water and wood is completely different with a more upbeat cajun sounding song instead of the sad slow gloomy one in the original (which i prefer, but i like both). 35 out of 37 people found this helpful.
