Great deal Just tried to buy it but it doesn't give you the option to enter the promo code any where before you click place order

[Rob]

You can't use promo code if checking out as a guest, you need to register an account first

[Rob]

Think this is the link to today's offer and promo code http://www.rakuten.co.uk/shop/shopto/product/XB1HW152/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

[Blade]

Cheers Rob. The missus has an account so I'll ask her to logon and buy it. Thanks for the post and advice I really appreciate it mate

[Blade]

Missus has bought it but with forza 5 for £2 more. Happy with that. Cheers again Rob, really good deal.

[Blade]

Correct the last post. Tried about 50 times and it doesn't work even when logged on in your own account its a con.

Not your fault Rob, thanks anyway mate.

[Blade]

Deal can back on so order one, cheers Rob, great deal appreciate the link

[D6]

wow, im confused

[Blade]

They have daily deals. The original deal would not work. I logged in two days later and the same deal was on with a different promotion code which worked so I got there in the end.

Forza 5 is awesome!

[Blade]

Looking forward to playing it. They got the nurburgring in there ?

Also going to be worth a look.

[DaytonAndy]

Yes mate, Nurburgring is tricky! Have you/are you getting xbox live? We can race!

[Blade]

Not looked into anything yet tbh Andy. Will have to find out what it does etc... Just bought it as the lad wanted it for his birthday for mine craft and don't really know much else tbh.

[Blade]

I have just turned the xbox on as the kids are away this weekend and thought it would be sensible to check it all out before his birthday so as no disappointments or problems on the big day.

Good job I did as its taking some setting up.

One quick question is I have the Forza game on disc but it seems I have to install it onto the hard drive, why is this ?

Its telling me it will take up 10% of the HDD disc space, so that means I can only have 10 games on there which seems a bit strange IMO.

Anybody got any advice ? Am I doing something wrong ?

[rocket]

Nope most games install to the hard drive as they need to read files fast rather than using the disc. Sometimes there options to not install certain files to the hard drive but this is game specific. also certain games will only have a small install and other massive. The days of mega drive all the game data on the cartridges are long gone I'm afraid.
