Has anyone had their series x not download your requests from the app? 
 

It’ll only start doing it if I turn the bloody thing on which means having to get out of bed.

 

I have all the worst settings for the environment and my electricity bill turned on.

I've just spent the last hour playing Okami HD on my phone via the Xbox remote play function (using an Xbox controller)... I'm probably well late to the party but it played excellent, admittedly I was in the same room as the actual Xbox so I'm not sure how much distance could wreck things but this could be a bit of a game changer when the Missus wants the TV.😂

 

Better yet the Xbox actually stays off and it's still in power saving mode... fucking hell, the wonders of modern technology.🤣

I’ve tried it in the past but it was bad for me. Constant hitching, intermittent noise on screen, dropped resolution all the time, very noticeable lag. Don’t know if they’ve improved it recently or if it’s a problem with my network though. Might try it again. 
 

I’m sure I had to have the Xbox on too? How’s it running the game if it’s in standby mode? That doesn’t make sense.

Must be witchcraft...😀... trust me, the white on button stayed off.

 

Dunno if it's streaming off the servers or the Xbox... I was going of what remote play was on PlayStation so maybe it is streaming... at one point (when I did have the Xbox on) I had the picture on the the phone and tv at the same time though.

 

Just Googled it and apparently it is using the console itself @Metroid66?

Okami is a fantastic game, isn't it?

 

 

In all fairness I've only just completed Kamiki Village so I've not made much progress... I've been more surprised by the seemingly perverted bug thing that just wants to get back in to some womans Kimono all the time...🤣

 

The drawing is just simulated on the pad.

Yep, if they want this to be successful they need to remove barriers that might prevent non-gamers from trying it - so either bundle it with a controller and Gamepass trial or make it a low price optional extra at point of sale.

 

Otherwise it's asking people to spend an extra £50 (£35 on a controller, £15 for 1mth GP) on something that they may/may not even like.

LG include the GeForce Now app with their tvs too (Nvidea's streaming thing). Not that this is what we're talking about, but LG tvs are really good for apps 

 

However, I'm pretty sure neither of my LGs have Bluetooth built in, or if they do it's shit, so whichever game streaming thing I tried on my TV I had to plug in a wired controller
