Bro can teach how to do that? 😁 cos i see previously somebody said argentina no longer accept our cc. And the reload credit is quite exp.

just change your xbox region to Argentina, CC use local CC but with AR address

it's a hit & miss sometimes, if got cross region error try again some other days

some says doing a xbox reset will do the trick, but I haven't done that as past few days it's working perfectly for me

bought lots of dirt cheap games during the year end sales

Set to 1440p and 120hz with odyssey g7. I dont even know previously the monitor can do that because ps5 dont have that option.

But I dont know if the game can go to that setting, how to check ?

Anyway love love love the quick resume feature on xbsx. Can play 4 games at a time 😂, the loading is super quick, totally feels like next gen 🤣

Quick resume the best

But so sad fifa21 doesnt have tat feature, maybe ea wan u to see their logo. They spend alot on that, LoL

Are you referring to quick resume? If yes, FIFA21 does have quick resume - always jump back into my FUT whenever I boot up my console.

Anyway, Happy New Year guys!

yeah even GH still has stock for that rm3099 Japan set

Hopefully we can get it at rm2300 below soon for SG set, Japan set should be cheaper since warranty is nearly impossible.

Weird tho mine doesnt resume at match. Later try again

Got excited when I received a notification email from impulse for the xbox one. Thought it would be for a SG set. Turned out it was for a RM2999 JP set.

Sad.

I doubt I will see the SG set even by end of February. At this rate I might just outright cancel my PO until stock becomes common. But between the Geforce RTX, Ryzen 5000, PS5 and Xbox Series consoles, I don't know which ones will have normalized stocks first. This kind of shortage is unprecedented.

all these has to do with the chips manufacturing, guess AMD is the main bottleneck for the consoles shortage, they just can't keep up with the massive year end demand!
My office laptops are due for refresh, and any of the the Ryzen spec laptops are only available after 8 weeks+ !!

Yeah pretty much. I already gave up finding any loose Ryzen 5000 CPUs to upgrade my desktop. No one is selling them without bundle. I was supposed to help a friend build a Ryzen 5000 desktop, and I just tumpang buy an RTX 3080, new X570 board and Ryzen 5800 CPU. My friend just needed a Ryzen 5600. At that time there was still stock for the 5600, but not the 5800. We waited too damn long to take action, by the time we were ready to build, no Ryzen 5000 CPUs were left!

news say microsoft is now begging amd to increase their production

Yeah I read about that. Phil Spencer specifically was on the phone with Lisa Su asking "how do we get more"? Supposedly these shortages will continue into April, so let's see.

yeah.. scalpers actually gonna hurt their market more. Because they are software seller. They wan to push software rather than hardware. if hardware is bottleneck by scalper, how they push the sales of software. Thus u see puny ps5 game sales at launch even in japan. altho 1 thing is the exclusive like demon souls is not well received in japan even for the original one.

it's a very typical business taichi moves, MS is pushing the blame to AMD basically by telling the whole world, see? it's not me, it's them

as if Lisa has a magic wand that with a simple wave the chip production shortages can be solved magically in a short time.


years and years we have suffered from this annual shortages of chips, if it's not ram, then it's HDD then it's CPU...

but if MS and Sony didn't release their new consoles back to back at the same period, I doubt we will have such severe shortages

Yup true. Back then the Xbox was launched 1 year after the PS2. Then the PS3 launched 1 year after the 360. It was only during PS4 / Xbox One era that Microsoft and Sony fought head on during launch. But there wasn't any kind of severe shortage during that launch. Unlike this time in 2020. Trying to launch a console during a pandemic couldn't have been easy.

last time no scalper, now scalper is so advanced. But then, thanks to the limited stock also la.. if the stock alot, scalpers also cannot buy finish.

Don't know if this is old news or not but i think they changed geographical lock for 360 games in the store refresh. I've never been able to buy Catherine due to the geo lock but I just bought it for $5 as it is currently on sale.

Oh that's nice. Let me see if there's anything I want.
