    If you're experiencing issues downloading and playing Games With Gold titles, rest assured that we're on it. Our team is hard at work and we won't stop till we get it fixed! Thanks for your patience while we work. We'll update you as soon as we have more information.

Is it me or is there really no listing at all on the One's Store about Games With Gold?

The one and only way I could find the games was to manually search for them.

Perhaps I missed something obvious, but I saw zero mention of any thing about Games With Gold within the Store on the XBox One.

They're creating a Gold-specific hub that will come with the June update.  So no, you didn't miss anything, it's not there yet :P

Hmmm, thought I had that update already since I am part of the beta program for the updates. Is this a new beta update you are referring to?

Just start the download from PC (make sure you are logged in) and both titles are listed as free, they should be downloaded and installed when you get home from work.

and no, the update is the June update which we got a few weeks ago

For those of you getting stuck at 99%, Xbox Support etc know about the issue and the engineers are working on it. That was the word last night on Twitter anyway, might be fixed by now?

June update starts rolling out today. May update came out the 16th.

 

The GwG Hub is included in the June update.

My issue was fixed this morning once I applied the June update. As soon as the update was applied and my system rebooted and got to the home screen, I had 2 notifications pop up for Max and Halo saying both were installed and ready to play. Both worked just fine when I tested them.

 

I do not see the Games for Gold hub though

MN tweeted a picture of it, it should be there but maybe because you got the games already it doesn't show up now?

Yes, had that same issue where it was almost done but then failed. Went to bed, work, got back home, update was done, game ready. And it's a pretty cool platformer too!

    • I use Gemini in my rotation of AI clients...that work pays for. It is good at most things, better than copilot for imgage searching and making images, worse at writing vs Claude and way worse at hadling technical issues when it comes to Azure stuff. I also use YT premium and maps. Anything else Google is a pass for me. I have now seen multiple people locked out of their Google accounts for reasons that are just very vauge.
    • Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced plans to build a new datacenter campus in Pecos, Texas, as the company continues to invest billions in AI infrastructure. The new facility, called project Kilby, will reportedly have a capacity of 2 gigawatts and will be one of the largest single capacity additions in the company’s history. To power the campus, Microsoft signed a 20-year deal with Chevron to supply natural gas from the Permian Basin, America's largest oil field. This deal is set to become the largest collaboration to date between a U.S. oil and gas giant and Big Tech. It’s no secret that Big Tech has often been criticized for exploiting natural resources for its AI developments. Microsoft is trying to mitigate some of that negative consensus by promising to build its own power supply for the new datacenter, independent of the public grid. The Pecos datacenter will be powered by a power plant hub, built by Chevron, with up to 2.5 gigawatts of gas-fired capacity, with potential to scale to up to 5 gigawatts. The facility will include at least seven GE Vernova turbines, with first power potentially coming online as early as late 2027 or early 2028. The power plant hub is part of an approximately $7 billion investment by Chevron, making it one of the largest dedicated energy projects tied to a single datacenter campus in the U.S. Microsoft hasn’t publicly disclosed the amount it’s investing in the new datacenter. Microsoft has also committed to implementing a closed-loop cooling system that will only require an initial water charge to operate. The company said that “the total lifecycle water use of this datacenter is only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, or how a 20-year fossil fuel commitment squares with the company's pledge to be carbon negative by 2030. The construction of the new datacenter should provide over 6,000 construction jobs at peak build-out, and create hundreds of operational job roles once the facility is built. Via: Reuters
    • A lot of uncertainty in this story. Might. Could. Maybe. The truth is we don't know what will happen to the universe in the end, or if it will end. Our own Milky Way galaxy will merge with the Andromeda galaxy in about 2.5 billion years, with our solar system as part of a new, larger cluster. I guess we'll have to and see how it goes down.
    • While people can rely on text expansion, it'd be nice to be able to save prompts as aliases. Since AI chatbots need so much provided context to lessen the chance of them going off rails in their response, it'd be nice to be able to start your prompt with a command word that provides all the necessary context that you find yourself often providing. I know there are 'memory' features, including in Gemini, but I still find myself needing to tell it things in each specific conversation for it to give appropriate responses in many contexts. For example, I have it in the memory that I'm running Fedora 44 KDE Plasma 6.7 yet Gemini constantly gives me instructions for older versions. Once I remind it what I'm running, it corrects itself. This isn't something I should need to do every time I prompt it about my setup.
