that's me paid in full at Curry's they marked the price up on the stock for the pre-orders so others couldn't jump in ahead of us haha. I had a code that discounted it back down to £444

Quite literally voodoo. The back compat team are wizards. It's so far from where they were in 2013 when Mattrick suggested keeping a 360 for back compat.

Seems that what is essentially going to be the XSX/S dashboard went live on XBO during the night.

It’s in french and it’s not perfect but you can see some basic examples of Auto HDR vs SDR with back compat games

Embargo lifts today so there's a ton of previews on Youtube. Mostly positive stuff, the general mass improvements to everything all adding up to a big leap.
Also interesting that the remote play is coming to the new iOS app. Which basically fills that Xcloud miss if you've got an X|S and a decent upload situation.
