Xbox One
 

Anyone else watching the live stream of the new Xbox reveal? Pretty fucking impressive I must say!

yup, features are very impressive.

I concur.

Yep Watched it.. Definitely a Buy for me :D See what comes out of E3 in 2 weeks.

Not much announced game wise & few people disappointed about that. What they fail to realize with E3 two weeks out, Microsoft wasn't going to go ALL guns blazing and end up with nothing to show come E3.

Particularly happy about Steven Spielberg being attached to a live action Halo TV series. Game of Thrones: Halo edition anyone? F*CK YEA!

Got a release date yet ? no live steaming at hd4 :(

Forza 5 is available at launch of Xbox one, trailer looks epic.

Not a fan of their new DRM model at all.

For example, with the Xbox One, I won't be able to bring over a game and let you borrow it for a week, or even show you it on your console, without you paying for it. It will let you install it, but when you go to play it, you need to pay for the game.

Gone are the days of bringing over NHL08 to a mates house to play while having some ebers etc.


In saying that, a few of the new interface features seem pretty awesome (Voice control...though I can see this being abused by friends to troll you while in the middle of a game...haha. and the Snap Bar), but that wont be enough for me to go out and purchase one, yet.

PS4, here I come :p

Will get both.... Looking forward to seeing some actual games in a few weeks.

+1 on the playstation 4, (not bashing) although I'm interested in seeing what the xbox turns out like :)

Time to trade my 2 Xbox 360's and 20 games for a 100 dollars towards the new Xbox.

Who takes games to other peoples places to play anymore? That's the point of playing online, no half screen crap. I've never owned a Playstation so I can't comment on it at all.

EDIT: Also just read that that Larry Hryb or 'Major Nelson' has been quoted saying you can take it to someone's house and log into your own live account, seeing its on Cloud, and play anyway.

Umm, quite a few people....nothing beats having a few boys over and playing a few rounds of Mortal Kombat, NBA Jam, NHL or FIFA while smashing back some beers before heading on a night out with the boys.

Though if what you said is true (about being able to sign into your xbox live account and play) that partially fixes the issue, and I'm happy with that :)

Just pre ordered mine with cod and forza 5 hopefully the fact I can get them with it at release is a sign of a November release :)

How much?

I will probably get the One first (mainly for Forza), then the PS4 the following month.

899 preorder

how much you gotta cough up? $899 won't be the end price - I was thinking more like 600.

Not sure, I just paid the full 899, I assume its like everything else at eb games for pre order, just need something on it.

I like how the xbox button in the new controller has been moved up. This will prevent me from accidentally hitting it. The frustration of hitting that home button whilst trying to beat Shao Kahn in Mortal Kombat using the D pad :mad:.

Force feedback on the triggers is a plus also.

Trying to do some research but unfortunately work likes to block all non work related videogame sites/forums.

Has anyone tried to play movies/tv shows that are on an external hard drive plugged into the xbox one yet? I was under the impression that this feature wasnt available at launch but there may have been an update to rectify the issue?

Only asking as i am intending to get my xbox one very shortly and the ability to do so should help with my current theatre room audio setup.

Thanks

No unfortunately neither Xbox One nor PlayStation 4 have this capability yet. Although updates are planned as you stated for inclusion of this feature for both systems respectively in the future. (No ETA)

Just do what I do and plug your 360 into your Xbox One through HD/TV mode. Lol.
