It's a beautiful thing. Completely forgot about the cord until earlier today. Very nice detail.

Re: Xbox One

Quick question...
Do XBOX Live cards stack? Or can only use 1 at a time?

Pretty sure they stack just like PSN ones do. Not 100% sure as I always used mine one at a time but I dont see why they wouldnt.

EDIT: After looking it up it seems like you can stack cards but not subscriptions it seems. By this I mean if you buy a Monthly Gold Subscription of 12 months then purchase a 12 month redeemable card, they wont stack. If you buy two 12 month cards and redeem them then they will stack. The max is up to 36 months.

If you're going to spend $80 on fixing the console, you should do it and then trade it in to GameStop for $250 (which is valid until 11/15) and then just wait until Black Friday to buy an Xbox One. You would only have to spend the $80 to repair the console and then the $50 difference when you buy an Xbox One. Total would be $130. Not bad considering that you would be getting a new Xbox One and shouldn't have to worry about the problem anymore.

Seriously, im trading in my PS4 next week once I finish Syndicate because it keeps making this beeping sound when it's turned off and yesterday, Syndicate froze and I had to unplug the console and plug it back in and then when I turned it on, it does that system check.

Consoles are basically computers nowadays so every little thing can turn into something major. If you can spend $130 this month, my advice to you would be to repair it, trade it in, buy a new console and get back to gaming without having to worry about the console giving you problems.

You can put the in on top of each other. At the current state I am a gold member until 8/6/2018. Whenever I see the $30 deals I grab it. I figure it ain't going to get any cheaper.

Re: Xbox One

I decided to cut the cord last week after so many years. Tired of paying $150 a month and watched 2-3 channels. So just kept high speed internet at home. Sadly, sling tv hasn't been too good. Thinking about ordering the TV tuner for the Xbox. Anyone use the tv tuner?

I got the tv tuner. There was a deal where you could get the TV Tuner and a Leaf 50 for $99 from Microsoft store so I took advantage. Unfortunately it brings back the days of having to adjust the bunny ears from time to time, i've never found a perfect spot for it. I may go back to the bunny ears as moving a leaf around is a lot more annoying than moving bunny ears.

The tuner itself is nice and the integration is good. I'm waiting for DVR features before I give my final verdict though.

Re: Xbox One

The rabbit ear situation could not sound worse to me. Is it 1985 again?

Yeah, though the 250 from Gamestop is when it's towards a new Xbox One, so I don't know if I could wait until BF. It plays my GTA and Unity discs, so in theory I'd trade it in with one of those and I could probably get past their checks, but I don't think they'd just put 250 on a card right now, I'd have to buy a One right then and the deals aren't as great (like 400ish for most bundles, you get more stuff, but not itching to spend 150 right before Christmas when we've been tight). Maybe with the Best Buy BF deals (300 for a bundle plus added stuff) I could trade mine in for a lower value (like 140 I think), but if I had some credit (I think I have like 80 in credit or something) it might not be a bad plan. I'll have to think about it.

I'll survive, probably just get it fixed sometime early next year after we catch up a bit (we had a some medical stuff, and the big storm here hit the house and have to pay the 1000 deductible, etc). Plus we do pretty well with Taxes, so that'll get our savings back.

I got a cheap Amazon tuner that should work within the range, and I'm actually going to try putting it outside in a freezer bag lol. I've run one Coax all ready and just have to run one more and I'm hoping it gets good reception. It does well on everything except the VHF (I think) like PBS. My new coax will put it out at the back of the house facing the right direction, so I hope that'll help. Otherwise I'll just buy a outdoor antenna for not too crazy and see if that works....I have a few Home Depot cards that are helping here.

You can trade a ps4 or xbox one for 250 store credit on a card today if you want. They have a 250 towards an xbox one that is a stand alone promo but the actual trade value today for an xbox one is 250 credit and you can put that on another xbox one or wait for a bigger sale
