I have no idea what the Game stop cash grab is so I'm guessing not :p

I live in the UK as well so I'm assuming it wouldn't have applied to me.

Well dang. It was the free $5 codes that they were giving away that people made a bunch of fake Facebook accounts for. It was pretty great.
 
If you’ve already played, you haven’t seen everything yet. We’ve got some surprises in store, and if you play on Saturday, July 26th beginning at 2pm PDT, we’ve got a permanent reward on reserve that will commemorate the experience.

I swear to god, bungie asked my boss before planning those things... EVERY time this events happen I have to work!

same with all iron banners last week!

Yuck!
 
It downloads faster on the xbox one if you don't go into the app after it says it ready to play. Shit is zooming now after I turn my xbox back on.
 
My download slowed down when I "started" Destiny.

I stopped and deleted the 4% I downloaded and then got to 12% I'm the same time after.

Either way, that's some serious traffic. Why didn't they just dish put the codes early?
 
Xbox live is having troubles. I got to 25% quickly, now it's going really slow and my brother just got logged out of xbox live.
Just hit 30% here. It's not setting any speed records, but it seems relatively steady. Knock on wood. (XB1, USA, state of Georgia)

12GB just for an installer?! Oy.
 
So I am looking for all sorts of new things, nothing yet, but I did find a red tick on my radar when I went to King's Watch, there is something back there.
 
It's hilarious seeing people trying to sell Beta codes on Ebay. I had to check to see if people were dumb enough to buy one, seems some people are. But they aren't going for a very high price. Some bids are up to about a dollar.

What is the point of that as a seller? Ebay and Paypal would take most of that dollar. It's just dumb for the person selling and the person buying, as you could get the Beta for free by pre-ordering.
 
Not sure I can be bothered to sit here watching a progress bar... Might go to bed and play in the morning.

Can't even play halo whilst I wait because it'll lag the game up :/
 
As long as I redeem the code on xbox website and have someone turn on the Xbox one at the house it should start downloading right away?
