Anyone have the patch for Diablo ? I'm reading conflicting reports. Some say they have it and some not...
To answer my own question. Deleted and reinstalled and the patch has come down :-)

4k is the current buzz word, and people will rock up to Curry's, say ooh 100 inch 4k, please take my finance and not actually look at the panel, or the rest of the tv hardware specs.
Yep and the sales tag never mentions if it is 8/10/12 bit, just that is it is UHD 4K, Ultra High Def etc.

Looks like my 8Bit THX Cert 4K TV is showing HDR to the ST2084 and ST2086 SMPTE standards but as you say not a true HDR 10bit screen which was double the price of this one, and from my eyes I honestly couldn't tell the difference.

Stupidly ordered mine from PC World, no tracking number, no updates, no nothing currently.

It's in my ordered items, but that's as much info as it will give me.

There's not even a cancel order option so that I can go and grab one tomorrow lunch time.

Let's see if the situation changes later today/tonight.

Interesting on the 8k/10k, wasn't aware of that, but was aware that some early 4k TV's didn't even have HDR.

Yes, good point, that's an option.

You know what'll happen, I'll cancel and then won't be able to buy one anywhere laugh

Why did I order from those utter muppets!?! I think it's because they were the only ones showing pre-order stock at the time.

Amazon email confirmed my Project Scorpio edition has been sent and arriving tomorrow. Also ordered Gears of War 4 and also a couple of UHD 4K Blu-Ray movies. Just hope it arrives early to get the 4K game downloads started before the rush.

Just a tip for anyone getting their console tomorrow - if you have the space available on either the internal drive or external drive of your existing Xbox One you can actually install the 4K game updates now.

This video from Major Nelson is worth watching as it explains the process:

Do you have Prime ? Maybe worth getting onto chat even if not... Chance they could bump the delivery for you...

Preordered the Scorpio edition from John Lewis supposedly for delivery tomorrow but not had any despatch confirmation and when I called customer services this evening they didn't seem to have a clue what was happening as they said they're being delivered direct from an external supplier

I'm live chatting them at the moment. Got 6 months of free prime out of them for the fk up (after offering 1 month initially).... They've also said that I'll be getting it first thing tomorrow morning.
