[XOne] Playing in English

No you didn't, he asked which version it was, or shiny or matt. A 'yes' answer was insufficient.

 

The pianofinish black version of the 360 doesn't exist anymore, it's only the matte version now for both the 250GB and 4GB version.

 

Unfortunately, they don't ship to Belgium... I'll have to order from bol.com, even though it's a little more expensive.

 

Follow me are the new xbox what now buy in the store is all Matt black, correct me, i'm wrong ) I love matt black so much more than shiny xD No fingerprints etc.

 

I'm not even going to try to correct you. But yeah, you're wrong.

 

Pardon wat?

 

Damn, he totally got the words out of my mouth.

 

I hate you all welcome in this topic

 

... and to think that I started all this with an apparently harmless question...

 

Welcome to XBW

 

By the way, if anyone is interested, I finally bought my xbox at GameMania in Leuven, they have the anniversary bundle for €233.

 

Awesome. Enjoy playing the games

 

Language Chaos

I am indeed enjoying it but having some language troubles.

When I first set up my xbox live account I entered a US address, only to find out that this would prevent me from downloading the included games. Thanks to the surprisingly helpful Microsoft service I was able to transfer my Gold subscription to a new account, which I created with a Belgian address.

Now I am facing the following problem: My xbox locale/language are set to English, but most games appear in French, also the included downloads (Fable III/Halo Reach), while my xbox account page is in German.
For example, when looking for new downloadable games, my xbox menu is in english but the game descriptions appear in French.

Is anyone else experiencing these kinds of problems, and is there a way to switch everything to English?

Thanks

 

You have to switch your Locale settings to UK/US/English or something like that. That'll change your language in games.

 

The following video shows an example of how to change the language settings on your Xbox 360.

Keep in mind this doesn't work on every game though. I think some games are language restricted due the store and country you buy them at.

 

The downloadable games (Halo Reach and Fable III) seem to be French only... everything else is in English now.
This may be due to the fact that I first entered Belgium (French) when I started the console (I did this because I had problems when selecting US as a locale), even redownloading the games doesn't help. This is kind of annoying, although at least my French is better than my Dutch
