Xbox One - Questions & General Comments on Console

Mega Coin Squad out today, this looks good and a great homage to Mario...

[JBHuskers]

Might be worth waiting for the price to go down from $15 though....one review on Meta for the PC version said:

As I was playing through Mega Coin Squad, I felt as though I was playing a free game I downloaded off the App store on my phone while I was bored on the toilet.

There is a limited time discount for Gold members that makes it $11. I might just go ahead and try it. Looks fun as hell.

That's okay, I have a 3.5GB HDD on my XB1

Just wish Sony would follow suit with the external HDD support.

Yeah that would be nice - at some point I'll prob upgrade to that Nyko thing (even though it looks pretty ugly).

Now 54.5% of the HDD is full. Witcher 3, GTA, UNITY, BLACK FLAG and others fill this up pretty quick. Will need an expansion sooner than later. The side attachment option seems to be the best option thus far.

You can use any external HDD as long as it is USB 3.0.

I noticed that in the last update the ONE Guide finally works now for Canadian customers. Surprised it took so long but in all honesty it's pretty underwhelming and I have already stopped using it. I find it a lot easier to just use my PVR cable box as t is all set up the way I like. I don't really need youtube upates on my tv guide.

I have two XBOX One controllers. Both have the rechargeable battery pack that can be plugged into the Energizer charging stand.

I also have an XBOX One rechargeable batter pack that can only be recharged via micro USB cable.

My question is, do I have to use the Xbox One micro USB cable and do I have to charge it at the Xbox One?

Can I use any micro usb cable and can I recharge it at my PC? If so, how do I know when it's charged? When I plug it into my PC it lights the controller up, the Xbox logo it white.

I ask b/c some things (cell phones) recommend using their factory supplied cables. I didn't want to hurt this controller.

Thanks.

Edit: google is my friend, looks like the answer is Yes.

It's just strange that as soon as I plugged it into my PC the light went White. From reading online, white means it's charged. When we were playing it kept telling us the battery was low and eventually the controller shut itself off.

Now we're getting better on Games With Gold

Another ? about Xbox One.

So I have 2 sons, I've been playing Madden 15 with my 6 year old for a few months, each time we play he has to put in a password we set up. It gets annoying.

My 4 year old wanted to play so we bought an extra controller and I created a child account for him. I have him set to the exact same access, this time it wanted him to create a personal PIN. The first time he played Madden, the XBOX One said this is rated for 10+ and a parent needed to give him access to play. I said YES. Now each time he logs in and plays it just starts up.

My 6, now 7 year old has to put in his PIN every single time. How do you make it so you don't have to enter the PIN each time we fire up the Xbox One?

I'm just not understanding why for the 4 year old it works, but the 7 year old it asks me for more access stuff???

Dumb question but...

I stream on twitch on my PS4. Can I use the same credentials to stream on xbox1? I tried to sign in but it gives me a code to register. How can I have one account on two systems???

[GatorfanStovy]
