    Default Xbox One S advice please folks...

    Hi all,

    Im thinking of upgrading out Xbox 360 for Christmas, and I think I have found a decent deal.

    Seen an Xbox One S 500Gb, with Forza 3 Horizon Bundle, and Fifa 18....for £199.99.

    Is that a good deal?
    Im new to the Xbox One series, not a massive gamer, its just for the kids really.

    What I want to know is if this Forza 3 game is a pre-loaded on or a physical disc? Also, is the Fifa game a physical disc?

    Is 500Gb enough space?

    Any advice will be great.

    Argos and Amazon have the exact same deal on at the moment...

    Thanks.

    Thats what I got, the black unit with the cr4ppy touch button power.

    This appears to be a half decent deal, but not really a game so just looking for a little clarity.

    Also, what would you guys rather, Amazon or Argos?

    get it where it is the cheapest... but if you've got a 4k telly you might want the daddy Xbox one X it is capable of up-scaling non 4k content and if you get a 4k game the pictures look absolutely ace.... but it has to be said... not many 4k games are available just yet.

    500mb depends what your kids will use for downloads and game saving most people say 1tb but 500 should be enough, what is your size on the 360? that should give you an idea if it will be enough, both games will be disks unless stated other wise , for bigger purchases i tend to go to physical shops just for the need of returns but never had needed to thats just me though , bare in mind it will come with only 1 controller so you may have to buy another one costing £50+ ebay/amazon usually do them cheaper though, GAME are doing one for £230? i think comes with an additional controller but with different games depends on the games they play etc , smithys toys are doing one for £220 comes with 2 games (one is a disk one is a download and with 2 controllers

    Im always a little sceptical about Black Friday deals, and also websites are always crashing.

    I currently have a 250Gb version, and I dont think its anywhere near fully utilised.

    Im seriously considering this Argos one, I can actually get it for £185, as I have a £5 voucher and also £10 worth of TopCashback Promotion.

    I would go for a bigger HDD, I have a 500gb Xbox one and although I only play 4-5 games ive used up 70% of the HDD already. The updates can be annoying as that can be large and take ages.

    Don't forget that some of your 360 games will also be on the ONE, this means you can download them for free onto your XBOX ONE which includes all your saved data and progression, again this will use up HDD space. You can get a standard external HDD and use that to boost your internal space ( Ive got a Toshiba 500gb which I will use once my internal storage is almost gone)

    I love my ONE and once you've played on it you wont go back to the 360. My favourite thing is that the games are bigger, I play a lot of battlefield 4 and the amount of players per map on multiplayer is double so it amazing. There are also loads of features which im yet to even use.

    I got a good deal about 18 months ago from game which included XBOX ONE 500gb, extra controller, fifa 17, 3 months NOW TV Voucher and blagged a copy of COD infinite warfare for £199

    Just been to Game, and they only have deals with CoD or Assassins Creed, neither of which are suitable for us.
    We need wither Forza 7, Fifa 18, or an additional controller.

    I spoke to a friend last night who has the One, the one before the S, and he said it is a top top unit. He said the 500Gb is plenty sufficient.

    Im on the verge of biting the bullet and placing my order with Argos.........................

    If you're not in too much of a rush, it's worth waiting and keeping an eye on hotukdeals.com

    This appears to be out of stock, but you do find deals like these;
