I will modify the clip I have for the Kinect or make my own shelf for the tv easy enough to do

I am sure there will be a bracket for the TV at some point.

Yes got mine from Tesco as they have had stock for days.

my bloody tv works as a media extender even just sees my plex shares without plex software on it. Lame MS for omitting that part

Rainbox Six is now free on Xbox live until 30th September.

Unfortunately we now have to put our credit card details in to download something FREE since they got rid of the MS points!

LoL even my old Smart TV can play stuff off my PC, the list of stuff the XBONE CAN'T DO is getting longer every day!

I haven't used that method in years as we can still stream from a NAS, but it would still have been useful for some people i guess.

It's intended to be placed on top of the TV.

I know that MS has made some (well, many...) stupid decisions, but even they can't be so stupid (surely?) as to forget that HDTVs (the kind of TV they intend everyone to use) don't tend to have nice deep flat tops...

If anyone is interested Tesco still have the Xbox One day One Edition with Forza instock and i think you need to be quick as these sell out in hours.

You do if you use Xbox.com to download your purchases, luckily though you don't if you do it the slow way via the dash.

Nope. I dont trust the retailer enough for me to cancel my pre order which was made less than 24 hours of the reval back in May to make a new one really close to launch. Ill just stick with mine and by Forza on launch day as i want both Fifa and Forza so either way i would be buying one of the games

I am going to Eurogamer on Saturday with the 2 tickets I won with virginmedia, I hope I see games running on final X1 hardware but I expect it will be PCs.

You don't get to keep the 'free' games when you end your subscription on PS+ like you do with Games with Gold
