I heard it was awesome but can't justify paying £150 for a controller considering that is half the price of a console lol.

You're welcome the console itself looks like a good price especially with the extra controller and if you get the extra 2TB external it'll keep your son happy, he can buy any other games with his christmas money!

Let me know if you go for this deal or you find something better?

Yeah, it's pricey on its own, but the console bundle itself is a good deal considering you get the controller plus a 1TB SSHD console. I'd been wanting a new console anyway (my Day One was getting very noisy, and I'm on my 3rd PSU), so thought I may as well go for the Elite.

Luckily my console is still silent although I did pay for the 3 year warranty if something goes wonky.

I have the elite controller pre-ordered , it's got really good reviews too , hopefully will turn up on Tuesday so I can use it for halo 5

Thanks SnoopZ think I will go with the bundle pack and buy the external drive at a later date as the Bundle contents: •xbox one console with 500gb hard drive •wireless controller •chat headset •hdmi cable •power supply •xbox one wireless controller •the fighter within •killer instinct •halo: the master chief collection. £384.99 whereas the the TB console is £349.99 with no games.

As SnoopZ says I also have a WD 2TB HDD it's easy to install.

I fact I'm planning on getting another one to install 360 games when the backward compatibility is launched.

How is the Elite compared the Day One? I really wish Microsoft would trim it down and allow as to put HDs in.

The New Xbox Experience dash is set to launch for everyone on November 12th.

Hopefully they will fis the stuttering media issue while playing MKVs by then so i don't have to use my work around.

It's good, but I agree it'd be nice to have a smaller console!

I also wish that MS would redesign the awful PSU.


I am *very* impressed with the controller, though, more than with the console itself.

What's so good about it? Any improvements if you're not going to be remapping the controls?
