I have a friend with which we grew up together and then I moved from the city we grew up in to live in Quebec City then to Montreal. Both our lives took different paths, I went to school and he got children and didn't do much for his professionnal life so he lived on welfare for almost 15 years. Then at 32 I went back to university to pursue my career as a designer and while doing so I kept on encouraging him to do something with his life at least for his kids but he was affraid of leaving his kids alone (his wife was studying at that time). He had his worst yea ever because he lost both his parents that year. It was hard on him but still it was some kind of wake up call. He barely knew his father but when he died he left him a heritage and so did his mother. He decided to use the money to go back to school, trying to get his class 5 driving license so he could be a bus driver. I kept encouraging him and this year he is graduating and so am I. Why do I tell you this? Because as a present for my constant support and not judging him all these years for living on welfare he bought me an Xbox One Titanfall bundle, along with the Titanfall controller, Forza 5, Dead Rising 3, a 50$ points card, a play and charge kit and a one year Xbox Live Gold card... he told me we need to play this together.

I still can't believe this. I had to pick it up at the post office but didn't even know what it was. If you could see the girl at the counter telling me "Why so excited, it's just games!". Haha anyway, I had to share this with you guys. Thanks for reading.

I will give my impressions on the console when I finaly have time to open and install it.

I had that connet to XBL thing a few days ago, even though i was connected.  A hard shutdown fixed it so try that.  Seems like the hard shutdown fiexes exverything for me lol

That's what did it, lol. Hard reset fixes so much, like you said. Game freezes, black screen, you name it, hard reset fixes it xD

That's why he's on welfare for 15 years - he has a family with kids and a wife and prioritizes buying you $700 worth of gaming stuff so he can play games with you (presumably, he has the same for himself) - two consoles since November is like a tenth of the money he brings into the house each year. I mean, I get that you were emotional about receiving this generous gift, but I get emotional when I think about the guy's kids. Being a bus driver isn't exactly going to make his family wealthy.
