Do u run both game pass & Xbox live?

Which do u recommend?

I run three active subscriptions that total $25 per month.

Game pass $10
Xbox gold live $10
EA access $5

I usually get discounts though. Like my previous live subscription was $9.99 for 3 months and my current game pass subscription is $9.99 for three months. But yeah, I do all of it

How is Starcraft 2 not on this list?

dabosuker:
Bro I only rushed to buy because I could not wait to download my first game. Even though after buying, I still had to download 68gb update before I could play the game.
Once I return home by ne t week, I will continue with my downloads, thanks for the tips will surely look to them and queue them up for download, so sea of thieves is that good, I passed it as a not too interesting game (guess I was wrong). Are the already downloaded games also available when your game pass subscription runs out I also noticed to do mutiplayer u need xbox gold membership, so I guess one has to run both game pass & gold membership?
Apart From PES, I certainly won't be buying any other game. Game pass is more than enough

You can’t play Gamepass games without an active subscription. They throw in bonuses once in a while so keep an eye out. Yeah you need Xbox live for online play

Bro I haven't named her yet, stul configuring here & there , am crowning her the queen of my entertainment, I have given out my 2011 N15k LG home theater , I have no more need for her services, now all sound must pass through the new Queen , that surround dolby atmos sound can't go to waste, already ordered a complementary sound bar to follow.
Am a Konami PES fan, I tried to get the PES 2019, but Bro the N21500 jumia price tag was just too much for me at the time, so I managed to get myself for a motor sport 7 @ 12k, knowing it was 4k enhanced, I wanted to see how good the graphics were..... I must confess even with my 32" HD TV I was blown..... Gosh I really need to get me a 4k tv .... I also managed to download other titles with my free 30 day game pass like RYSE(son of Rome) love it!, Forza Horizon 4 (Endless Road, crazy graphics standing by my window u might think I have a car in my sitting room ), shylock Holmes, Observer, City skies, farm simulator, & Dead Island.
Yeah I was glad when I heard mouse & keyboard support were coming to Xbox, imagine having games like Ages of empire, command & conquer, civilization etc on a console,. That would be wonderful! Like you said I think I came back at the right time.
Meanwhile did I hear some1 say they have 6 different game pass subscriptions...?? Help a brother is there a hack

Name her quick. I’m a fifa fan boy...nuff said. Oga why are you buying game? Have you played everything in game pass? Be guided o. Now gaan play metro redux. Then play the division (my game of the year. Hit me up any time and let’s play together.) then play quantum break. Wolfenstein and doom are also in line. Sea of Theives and state of the decay will wound you. Being honest it’s hard to buy game o. There is so much with game pass. It’s not possible to have more than one subscription on one account at any given time. Don’t look for hack my brother...you no go see. That’s a PlayStation thing. For the family of the cloud...we form like we spend money but $10 per month is a very awesome deal considering 12 months cost the same price as one PS4 game. Name her quick and gaan download the division. You’ll thank me immediately. Espoehn you play with me...hehehe

Hello guys,
Glad I found this thread , I have always been a gamer. Bought my first console : segamega drive II back then, also got aPS1, then PS2, I did not get aPS3, because I thought& decide that PC gaming was way better than console. So I rather got myself a beasty 17inch 3D laptop back then in 2011, then for close to 2 years I took a brake from frequent gaming. My loyalty to Microsoft & their hardware made me keep tabs on the Xbox one x, I followed the build up till the release last year (Project scorpion). It really did catch my attention. I actually prefer PCgaming ( 1 machine 4 work & play), but the way Microsoft advertised this machine coupled with my loyalty , if I was going to make a come back to gaming, I needed to get a console to motivate me, it wasn't going to be PS, I needed something different & unique .... It sure had to be most powerful console alive
So last month I decide to get back in line joor with an appearance with the xbox 1 X and my oh my,..... I have been blown, I now understand Microsoft vision when they made the first xbox. Console gaming has really changed back from when I had my Ps2.
Glad I found this thread, because Internet is the main issue now , we are now downloading games from 40 ,60 - 100 gb sizes. Overall am happy with my purchase. And yes we can form a group, need to learn from seunpayne & co

Guy that’s mad hardware you’re sitting on. Congrats. Hope you gave it a name. Mine is called Miss Xaya (pronounces zayah). You made the switch back in time. I’m also a PC gamer. Got a nice little rig here too. Just bought FM19 sef. Anyway, you switched at a the time when Xbox one just introduced keyboard and mouse support so it’ll feel like good ol pc gaming. Not all games support it yet...but moving forward, more will. Welcome bro

ladokuntlad:



Bro I want to ask how you make payment with your debit card on Xbox store.

I also want to ask if the games are listed in dollars(needing to convert it to naira) or in Naira.

I am planning to buy a used xbox1.

Alright. Personally, I use the us store. Which means I put in a US address. Which is usually House None, NA Avenue in Kansas USA (pick any city but google the postal code). Then I add my Nigerian debit card. I have mine (Stanbic) and my wife’s (zenith) added. They both work. My friend uses gtb. My diamond never works. Make sure you get a card that PayPal accepts and you’ll be fine. Also the conversion rate is determined by your bank.

LucemFerre:


Thanks bruh


You and me both brother. I don't know the defining variations of short/long sights but, i use glasses cuz i don't see things that are at a long distance.
But, i read that some VR lenses would have to be used with contact lenses, while some others are made to accomodate glasses. That shouldn't be a problem.

VR could be big in the future when it is universally categorized as being 100% safe. I am part of the people who fear that sh!t, no kidding

I’ll admit, you are right...but we keep pushing to make the future come tomorrow.

tobianthony:
Well at some point wires as a whole will be gone ...

Not entirely...but reduced to a less than noticeable minimum

crafteck:


Would it still have lots of wires?

Nope. Thanks to the new HDMI tech that allows more bandwidth, we can send video, audio and data at much faster speeds thus eliminating the need for more wires

tobianthony:


Your own good ...both don't work in my neighborhood .

When times are hard, I use 9mobile

d4guy:

What network and data subscription do you use?

Ntel for downloading. Spectranet for playing. Both unlimited subscriptions but the Ntel is weekly.

crafteck:
Vr is dying within d nxt 2 years, it would come back in a few years with less wires more tricks and be a bit more relevant. For now, it's a gimmick that the urge fades in a few weeks like a Surulere sidechick, I feel im speaking 4 d masses

For the masses with that Lagos sense of humor I’m sure. In a way, I think you’re right. Not two years though. With the amount of work we have been able to do at FAROCON, I can tell you it will be relevant next year. We would be having an exhibition in February where you can come and experience VR the way it should be experienced. We aim to change the narrative and so far it’s been a great and positive step in the right direction

LucemFerre:


Right, i remember when i first heard about the thing. I thought i would need a football field not to hurt myself.
Anyways, i do agree that it is very inconvenient to use which would censequenyly keep hurting it's popularity

Actually you can enjoy a very immersive VR experience in a chair. Today we aren’t changing much...just putting you inside the same things you already enjoy. The past has put a lot of negatives on this but with time I believe that can be corrected and we will get people to perceive VR the way it should be perceived

meobizy:
I honestly believe it is a fad. Just like how it was back in the 70s when newly introduced, it did not gain traction. Today again it has failed to gain widespread appeal.
Technology themed TV shows if truthful will mention reports of how it has underwhelmed set expectations (you know those predictions observers set like "by 2030 100% of individuals will use this platform"?). Well a lot of people are not using it because of first the price, the setup involved and also the inconvenience [space need to move about].
With time creators will see no need to continue developing applications for any VR setup larger than a high end mobile phone. Let's all hope Facebook can change this prediction from the amount of Research and Development plus capital pumped into the venture.

You’re right...it is expensive...but I think you are confusing VR and AR. Even if you aren’t, most of your concerns are being addressed as me go on. Nvidia recenky relased drivers for low spec graphic cards in their 10th gen line up to make them VR ready. Maybe it didn’t take traction at first but with the amount of content and the experience it delivers and the fact that we finally have the technology to drive it mainstream, I think it is no longer a fad

LucemFerre:


Annnnd, I'mmmm not gonna go crazy?

Oh you will...but in a good way. The thing about technology is that it doesn’t wait for adoption. It’s coming...adoption is where the issue lies and we are trying to open the door so Nigerians can peep and see that it is good

typicalgamer:


it started to accept my since I registered my live account on south Africa instead of u.s that most people uses

I had issues at first until I tried my wife’s zenith. Some cards work...some don’t

Suspect33:
bro wait o, can downloaded games be transferred from one xbox console to another?

Yes. Either via hard drive or LAN

It is the future. The company where I work, we build game rooms people here in Nigeria. Initially, it seemed like it won’t be a great concept but today, with the type of content being pushed for VR, I can tell you it’s here to stay. Not in the ready player one way but in a more controlled and safe way. It’s a different experience from the normal gaming and once you have tasted it, there is no going back. We are also trying to make this technology affordable for Nigerians.

typicalgamer:


no it does not

I don’t follow...are you saying it does not accept yours or that it does not accept mine? I use a US address but I use my own Stanbic Nigerian card.

Microsoft adding PUBG to Xbox Game Pass on November 12th



Microsoft is adding Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) to the company’s Xbox Game Pass subscription on November 12th. The addition means Xbox One users who subscribe to Xbox Game Pass for $9.99 will now be able to access PUBG, alongside more than 100 others.

Microsoft’s move to add PUBG to Xbox Game Pass comes just as rumors suggest the game is about to launch on Sony’s PlayStation 4 in December. Microsoft appears to have paid for a year of exclusivity on the Xbox One for PUBG, but a move to PS4 opens the game up to millions more as it continues to battle with the popularity of rival Fortnite.

Microsoft has been consistently pushing Xbox Game Pass, just as the company is exploring game streaming with its xCloud service. It’s clearly a big part of Microsoft’s future Xbox plans, and the company has committed to releasing all of its first-party titles through Xbox Game Pass. As part of this PUBG addition, new Xbox Game Pass subscribers will be able to access the service for a month for $1 during the holiday season.

Already downloading

If ur console is set to US store, u need a US address . I personally prefer the US store , cos of deals and the ability to gift games

I think I’m connected to the us store. Just got game pass for three months for $9.99. It accepts my Stanbic card though

TheBawse:


Well said bro, a community already exist and boy , it consist of the best guys ever. I am adding u gamertag and would invite u to one of our gaming session via party chat . U wnt be disappointed . For those complaining abt games , we gameshare which reduces the burden in buying games . We always play online .

Awesome. Been offline for a while. Work and all that. I’ll check for your invite this evening.

Controller360:
I'm also thinking of getting an Xbox one probably by the end of the year or early next year...
Like how much would a fairly used cost?

55k on average. Way i see it, that could change towards the end of the year. With the amount of attention game pass is getting more people are looking to buy Xbox one now. More demand means an increase in price. Move as fast as you can.

kinglyt:
I want to buy iPhone 6s UK used but I don't know what to check when I want to buy the phone cause this will be my first time trying IOS.
so I will be glad if you can help me with any features I should check before paying for the phone.

1. Verify the os version. iOS 11 and above would be better.

2. If it’s ios 11 and above, check the battery capacity (settings/battery/battery health) and make sure it is above 90%. Unless you want to have a slow phone with terrible battery life after a few months.

3. iPhone 6s comes with 3D Touch. Press the screen. On all the icons you see, make sure the screen reacts to slight pressure. Most refurbished phones come with fake screen and you’ll hate it after a few falls. Original screens are much tougher.

4. Make sure it’s not locked to iCloud.

5. Get a receipt and don’t just buy from someone you can’t trace. You’ll need that info if the phone ends up being a stolen phone.

I’ll post more if I think of something

...and no it can’t be hacked yet but they give so many free games for $5 you’ll not even remember that you want to hack.

Suspect33:
I want to get an xbox but my fear is the disc costs, can't it be hacked like the ps4 and have games copied into it??

I don’t know about Lagos o...but Xbox one discs are cheaper. Most of the old games discs go for around 10k max and some below. I don’t use discs though. I download my own games. If we create a community of XB1 users I’m sure we can share games easily and make it easier for each other. That’s what my friends and I do. Truth is when someone sees how we play together online they just run and get an Xbox too

Suspect33:
for a casual gamer who is only intrested in football games and GTA, should I go for an xbox 1 or a PS4

Please go for the Xbox 1. Pay $5 for ea access and get fifa 18. Pay $10 for game pass and get pes 18. Buy GTA dirt cheap for $30 when you subscribe for Xbox live gold which also gives you games like battlefield 1

spoilerx:


sorry ur xbox gamertag

Seunpayne

spoilerx:


okay. am in lagos. whats ur GT ?

Omo, my English no reach there. Wetin be GT?

Thegamingorca:
You go fear nah

Come on man, you actually seem to be good at trolling which suggest a certain level of intelligence. I know you’re a ps4 fanboy but at some point you’re going to have to respect other people’s choices. Make a half decent comment, make a joke or state a matured opinion. You’ll have our respect.

Please stop trolling!!

Mrviktor:


I currently don't have a hard-drive now.. But am looking to buy one. All the ones I've tried aren't USB 3.0 compatible. Do u know any particular one that is.

Most new hard drives are 3.0 compatible. WD and seagate are really reliable manufacturers. You can get on jumia sef

...and so the topic is forgotten...most people I know use either spectranet or Ntel. I think spectranet is a lot better in terms of quality of service. I use fiber sometimes. That’s usually the best but it’s expensive.
