And I can assume that because he didn't get the joke he hasn't been following Resolution Gate on the xbone because there are far more important matters a man with a family like he does should participate in. If anything I feel ashamed for even getting and laughing at the comic.

Thank goodness!

It kind of reminds me of that old PvP cartoon where the cute girl (Marcy?) sees a printed out web cartoon on the young nerd's (Francis?) wall, but she doesn't get it, because it requires a journeyman's knowledge of the topic being joked about. There is a sheaf of additional print out tacked behind the comic explaining the particulars behind why the comic should be funny.

...and now I've over-explained that.  :-\

While the Xbox One version of Call of Duty: Ghosts has been confirmed by Activision to run at a lower resolution than its PS4 counterpart (720p upscaled to 1080p native, respectively), that numerical difference is less meaningful than you might imagine.

The two versions look nearly identical. Viewing the Xbox One release next to the PS4 , I had difficulty telling them apart. It's possible that the PS4 version looked somewhat sharper, but that may have just been my imagination after confirming the hard resolution difference. The next-gen releases of Call of Duty: Ghosts are so close together that gun to my head, I'd have no confidence in being able to discern which version was which — at least, while the two are standing still.

The Xbox One release's framerate was far more noticeable. As mentioned in the initial review, Call of Duty: Ghosts suffers from consistent framerate drops on the PS4, especially during multiplayer when action got especially hectic. The Xbox One version suffered no such drops, maintaining a steady 60 frames per second throughout.

For a multiplayer shooter, framerate consistency is paramount. Given its relative visual parity with the PS4 release, Call of Duty: Ghosts is a more playable, slightly superior (albeit disappointing) game on Xbox One.

Framerategate?

"There has been much discussion online in recent weeks about resolution issues affecting PlayStation 4 vs. Xbox One titles. It's been confirmed that the PlayStation 4 version runs at a native 1080p, but the Xbox One version is upscaled to 1080p from 720p. I played Call of Duty: Ghosts extensively on both next-gen systems on several televisions of different sizes, and saw no differences between the two versions. The experience was virtually identical on both consoles throughout the duration of my play time. If you own both consoles and are deciding which version of Ghosts to get, I'd recommend simply going with whatever console your friends will be playing on."

I played a bit of Forza (old build reportedly) on the XBone at the local MS store. The machine does look just like an audio receiver of VCR or something. The controller was a nice improvement on the 360 one, the face buttons have a shorter throw and the D-Pad felt surprisingly great. Clicky so you can actually feel the diagonals and a cross pad (without a hole in the middle) which is my favorite layout. Triggers and sticks had less resistance then on the 360 but felt fine to me, not mushy at least. They should be a bit less fatiguing in racing games. The "impulse triggers" seemed pretty neat in Forza. Feeling braking feedback was good but the vibraton didn't seem super detailed from what I could tell.
The bumpers were weird. I think the idea is you're supposed to reach around and hit them with your index finger when their resting on the triggers, as they seem to hinge from the center. If you just push them straight in like before they seem hard to press and if you press toward the center of the controller you might not be able to push the bumper in at all.

Forza was fun enough but I messed up by not turning off the assists. The game basically controlled throttle and braking for me. The Prague track is pretty but the lack of AF was a big bummer. Aliasing was pretty obvious but I was suspicious that the TV had its sharpness jacked up (out of the box settings maybe).

Maybe because you're post are always obnoxious and predictable themselves. You're always talking shit about games you either never played or have no interests in.


Sad shit? Sad shit to what? An HD port of Halo 2? GTFO. An HD port of Halo 2 is something people have been clamoring for, it's exactly the kind of low cost, high reward side project any of these companies should put out. I don't know if you've even played Halo 2, but the game was great. Some of the best maps and online gameplay the series had and something that's been missing in later installments. Halo 3, Halo Reach, and even Halo 4 have all been missing something. You give people an untouched HD remake of Halo 2 for a good price, fuck yeah people would be interested. We can't play Halo 2 online and that sucks.

People love Crackdown and do want an actual quality sequel. C2 did'nt do hot because no one wanted another one. It did bad, because it sucked.

Pretty much every game listed in that giff is not sad shit. People love Forza. I and sure other niche gamers only want an Xbox for Crimson Dragon. I don't know who the hell wants KI, but it's not like a small crowd hasn't been asking for it all these years for whatever reason. And I guess the new has tuned out well.

So I'm not even sure whats the reason to talk shit about any of this when you're going to eat up the exact equivalent of it on Nintendo's side.

Its par the course for gaming.

I'm sure with PS3 we had similar things with FFVII Remake or whatever other Japanese series people hoped would return.

That's what people do when they are excited about new consoles. They get excited about the games not announced, they get excited about sequels and whatnot that may even be impossible to happen, but it's exciting because who knows what will happen with new consoles.

Halo 2 sucks, but take the "L" Andrex. You keep walking into the shit you complain about.

Sure, I'll take the "L," doesn't bother me. But I think it says more about a poster that they're so intellectually stunted they resort to ad hominems that aren't even true. (http://i.imgur.com/Sr7OX2M.png) I'm the least excited person in the Wii U thread for Mario and Zelda. Take a moment to think about that.

Making fun of me for liking Nintendo is like making fun of a 5-year-dry alcoholic for his drinking problem. Try and use something more current, yo, that's all I ask.

You mean something that was historically ninfaggy? Really? You're turning into a parody, man.

Lol that's why I said it was sad. I figured people here would realize.

The single player campaign sucks.  The multiplayer was wonderful.  Halo fans would love it if Halo 2's online to be revived.

It's the same as if Nintendo re-released Smash Bros Melee with online play.  People would eat it up. No one cares about the target smash.

Yeah MS was great at the begining and then Kinnect happen(they had probably slowed down before than).

After that, it just became "here's you're Halo, Fable, Forza, and Gears, so shut up".

I feel like for the past year(maybe 2) my 360 has basically been dead. This is really my worry with the Xbox One, MS doesn't really have a good history of supporting their stuff after a few good years. I mean sure the one has some good exclusives now and will for the next two years, so I don't think that MS is dead. I just wonder how long that great support will last. At least Sony seems to support their consoles well. I mean PS3 has had a great year and next year looks pretty solid.

The 360/PS3 didn't really hit their stride until 2007. It does seem like all the exclusive franchises they had which were actually successful were pretty conservative shooter/action/racer stuff.

I can't see Assassins Creed or Bioshock being successful as exclusives.

PowerStar Golf getting decent review. I would get it as I'm always down for some hot shots golf but no online multiplayer means no buy for me.

Dead Rising 3 also getting decent reviews. I rented it from Gamefly. I only wish I actually liked the series. But I'll give it a shot.

I rented Ryse over Forza which is probably a mistake but whatever. I don't generally like Hack and slash games and this one looks uber grim serious which is a turnoff. I at least know Forza will be very solid. And Ryse has a high potential of getting thrashed in reviews. I'll probably send it back to gamefly like the next day.

None of the other launch games interest me outside of BF 4 which I already bought with the console

Save file corruption. Doesn't matter if you load up a cloud save, those get corrupted as well. The workaround is logging out of PSN and playing SP offline, apparently. I just deleted the whole thing until they get around to fixing it - "hopefully" early next week, according to Battlelog. "Hopefully."

They knew this shit wasn't finished, or even in a fully playable state:

I'm going to rip the shit out of it when we record the next Cruncheons this week.  My hope is that out of our 500 or so listeners, I can talk at least a few people out of buying it. This never should have been released in such an unfinished state. I mean, I just got an instant crash when I hit the start button a few minutes ago. It crashed before the game even booted up.

I think with some of this devs, they were working on too many versions and consequently each version suffered because they weren't able to put in decent time on any one version. Not that's its a valid excuse. AC 4 seems to be working fine and I haven't heard too many complaints about it being a broken mess despite coming out on so many platforms.

Couple of my friends are also having major crash problems with BF4. Talk about wasting a golden opportunity. Ghosts is getting shat on everywhere, it's ugly, uninspired...perfect time for EA to swoop in and steal mindshare with a defining launch title. Instead BF4 is buggy as fuck on PS4 and ugly as shit in XB1 multiplayer.

It's sort of like if some distinguished mentally-challenged fellows shut down the government, and all you have to do is successfully launch a website to capitolize off your opponent's retardness but instead you fuck everything up thus proving to be a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow too.

I just got a game fly account. How long does it usually take to receive the games? I just added a bunch of stuff to my queue but almost everything is low or not available until the 22. I hope I get something by Friday or Saturday at least. NBA 2k14 is the only one that's not low and is available.

Of course it is!  No chance of disappointment that way!

When I placed my order this morning I chose two day shipping to get it on Friday and then I went to the gym. When I got back I checked my order and it said November 26th as the delivery date and I hurried my ass up and changed it to one day shipping. But now I'm out an extra 12 bucks (not much, I know. But still). I'm chatting with Amazon and they said it was an availability issue.

because the xbox one preorder guaranteed a november 22 delivery date with 2 day shipping.  They changed the date to November 26th randomly.  And it makes no difference in the end.  I assume that now that it's one day shipping it will just ship tomorrow instead of today.

Yeah, I lost all interest in Forza once I read that like GT, it's now more about a "driving simulator" than a racer.

Horizon still plays way too sim-like.  It's basically Forza/GT in their "arcade" settings.  As someone who loves arcade racers and finds sims boring, it was not fun at all even if the graphics were pretty nice.


PGR 4 is the answer.

I love Forza Horizon. By far my favorite racer of Last Gen. The next one if they make the right iterations could easily be my most anticipated racer. Great game. And just the right blend of sim and arcade for my personal tastes.

To be fair most people who are serious about their racing games whether its Turismo or Forza are more interested in multiplayer against actual people than necessarily racing AI.

And Forza 5 is more about racing avatar's ("Drivatars") of other people that also aren't perfect versus racing against perfect simulated AI bots.


Sessler isn't a car nut by any stretch but he really liked Forza 5.

That's part of what I'm complaining about.  Bots that take the perfect line every time even if it means crashing into another car.

Resogun and Geometry Wars are fine games. But in either case neither are the reason I would drop 400 or 500 dollars on a console. They are fun games in addition to have with other stuff and fun to play in small short batches.

Much in the same way that I wouldn't build a brand spanking new computer to play Binding of Issac.

Which is not to take anything away from those games. But just to put things into perspective at least for me.

I wouldn't buy a system if a decent shoot 'em up was the only game for it, but as long as I know there is something down the line that I also would get then I might as well get the system early. The price difference at launch and a year later is going to be close to $0.

Looks like fun, our master chief didn't do anything. The fuckers at my store didn't get any of the Pin editions of KI. I was told they would have it and it seems like all of the stores didn't get their copies. Mups did you see any? I had to wait till everyone got their consoles to get mine. I've got to move the 360's out so till then it sits in it's lovely black box. I ended up buying Zoo Tycoon since they said it was a Walmart exclusive game, but it was at the MS store. I also cancelled my Forza LE from  Amazon since they had a few copies of that too. All in all it was a fun night, I got to pick the raffle prizes at the store.

Now to wait till Target opens so I can pick up my preordered Dead Rising 3's, Ryse, and a second controller. I picked up Swap force tonight at Walmart since it was 37 bucks, which is more acceptable for that kind of game. Couple that with the copy of ghosts, ac4, bf4, and 2 copies of rivals coming from EA tomorrow. And i'm going to be stacked with games to play for a good long while. I may even get Just dance 14 if Gamestop has it for $15 next week.

I used to let it go and think it was the "polite" thing to do by letting it go, but there's way too many people like that in the world nowadays and I'm too old to give a fuck. I'm still polite enough, but obnoxious entitled assholes can eat my dick up. I don't mean to make you feel bad, Exodust, but those kind of people only keep it up because other more civilized people let them. Here's a first, hard life lesson for your kid, lady.

I ain't mad, all the kid will do is play Call Of Duty, throw a bunch of slurs at people online and grow up to be a drop out loser. Besides, it's kind of funny imagining how they would react to launch period issues.

Played it last night and it was really fun.  If you liked the other Forzas you'll like this one.  The rumble in the sticks is actually really cool and I was driving around in a C3 Corvette and I have to say they really nailed the feeling (I own one IRL).  Forza 4 didn't feel anything like that in the Corvette.

Played for a bit and messed around with the interface for a bit. Everything setup easily with no issues.

It's fine. The voice stuff is mixed. When it works it seems amazing. But then you try to do too much with it and it breaks or doesn't work, or doesn't do what you expect. There are probably like 5 or 6 voice commands that are super useful and I'll always use but the rest is just easier to navigate around with the controller.

The controller is very good. Feels great. Feels more sensitive but that's maybe because I haven't been on my 360 in awhile and all my 360 controllers are beat to shit at this point anyway so it may just be that I haven't used a decent controller in awhile. D-pad feels better but for some reason I also feel like I will break the d-pad at some point. It's not flimsy or anything. It's just I don't know. It feels like after a billion hours of use it could break or something.

Uploading a short game clip now that I'll upload to youtube just to see in a bit. Hopefully they extend the length of the game clips. 5:00 minutes is just too short.

The whole nature of multi-tasking and being able to do multiple things at once is at first a hard concept to wrap your head around. I'm not even talking about the snap stuff. Just the fact that you can sort of seamlessly switch between the game and the dashboard and downloading and stuff. The prior generation was such a kludge of trying to do that stuff but I guess I also got use to it that way. The new way is infinitely better but it also feels freaky. Like I'm breaking the rules or something.

Hooked up my ipad to the pass through TV port and it works terrifically with it. This will be a crazy useful feature for me for things like music/tv/podcasts and movie box.

Downloaded Killer Instinct since its free with one character and will try that later even though I'm not really a fighting game guy at this point.

Tried Battlefield 4 for a bit. Seemed to work reasonably well from the little bit I tried. It's looks like how the PC version looks on medium depending on what settings you are at I would guess. It's a huge step up from 360 but if you play the game on PC its nothing that's going to blow you away.  But its nice to finally have a fully functioning version of Battlefield on a console.

I wish I had Dead Rising 3 or Ryse. I refuse to buy those games though so its either wait for Gamefly or see if Redbox or something has them around here.

Basically its a nice first step and we'll see how it improves and when the good games come. There is no real reason to own one now imo unless you are a fanatic about any of the current games on them. It's obviously all about the future which for me, the first step of which will be with TitanFall.

That's about it.


Here's that bf 4 clip from the xbox. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_K-ggPpN6k


Here it is on my PC as basis of comparison. higher resolution of course although its downscaled to 720p in obs which records the gameplay. On PC multiplayer I run a mix of settings. Some at high. Some at low to maximize frames and see people clearly which some of the high graphical settings actually make harder.

Minor thing but I also tested streaming video and audio content from my PC to the Xbox One. It's a bit different than on the 360 because there is currently no app on the xbox one where you can initiate the playback or browse the content. Instead you setup streaming in windows media player and then initiate the content from the media folder on the PC and it is pushed to the xbox one.

I'm having a hard time taking any news outlet praising One's UI and features seriously  given that every stream and video I've seen of someone actually using the thing for what it was made for has been horrific, particularly the giantbomb stream. I'm sure the system is fun to play but fuck, the hardware, UI, and features they've been making a big deal out of are undercooked, unimpressive, and shallow. Thankfully it has solid looking launch titles going for it.

I'm really impressed by some of the choices taken with this console. So far the most used features are not the ones I was expecting. Voice commands really do  function better in most all situations of ui over the controller. Another small detail is the way in which it works with all of my av equipment without any fussing of any sort. No more looking for a remote to pause or turn the volume up.

I'm really enjoying the fact that I can take my Xbox and give it a custom word so as to not confuse the other console in my bedroom. And it detects me on all three units without even a hint of user interaction.

Demi use the two voice commands. Xbox and xbox select its super fast

1.) Boot windows media player.
2.) Go to the Stream option between organize and create playlist. Click more streaming options.
3.) Check the allowed box for your xbox one. Should say something like Xbox-systemOS
4.) Click next and go to the next screen and make sure it allows sharing for music and videos.
6.) Now right click on any piece of media on your computer. You should see an option that says Play to: And then an option next to it that says Xbox-SystemOS. Select it.
7.) You'll get a little pop-up. Just hit the play button on it. Videos files will play via the Xbox Video player and music files will play via the xbox music player. So you should probably download those already if you haven't already on the xbox one.

Some files types aren't eligible. Like mkv's. I haven't tried any old of the old transcoding software to see if that works yet to handle those kind of files because I assumed it doesn't yet.

that's in the apps and games folder. You can change the queue order by hitting the start button and selecting install now. Its a bit confusing to me too but I'm getting the hang of it.

Sounds like more of a pain than it really is. One you enable the xbox media player and set it to play to the xbox one. you can click on any eligible file at any location on your computer and just push it to the xbox one to stream.

On a side note the resume games quickly feature is currently defaulted to off in the power and startup options. It's labeled beta so I assume it probably fucks up with certain games which is why its labeled that way and is defaulted to off.

I turned it on though and it seems to work properly with the Battlefield 4 campaign. As soon I power on, I can start off where I stopped when I turned the system off in the game. That's pretty cool. Hopefully they iron out the bugs so that feature can be safely turned on.

Also it's just going to take me awhile to get use to the idea that I can just pop from a game to the dashboard at any time. Whenever I do it by accident, I totally freak out thinking I just closed the game like it was a 360.

I just hold the power button button and select console off. When I come back to it later by hitting either the power button again or the front of the console it always boots up really fast. Like 10 to 12 seconds. I assume if I unplugged it, it would do the longer cold boot up.

Demi what Xbox one game do you want? You gotta have that hot shit Zoo Tycoon?

I've got so many games and so much work this weekend I'm going insane. I literally took an hour nap today at noon. I was up all freaking night yesterday and today. In the little bit that I've played I'm underwhelmed by the graphics of NFS: Rivals (muted and flat just like BF4) and the textures in KI are so bad it's sad. The games are great though and I really have had fun regardless of if I think the graphics may be less than stellar. I'll get to ryse and dr3 tomorrow as well as forza5, zoo tycoon, just dance, and more KI.

Oh and about finding where things are like download queues and hard drive management. The console has been designed to make things like that remedial and not something users should have to even worry about. I know it might be difficult to just relax and give in to the experience, but we're all better if we at least try to go with the flow.

LONG LIVE PHATA!

The current way they handle it is just confusing. It can work if you want to make it work but all the little minor things that made the 360 party system work perfectly either are missing or aren't intuitive here. It's small things but the small things are the devil of the details. This party system wants to be clever but its too clever for its own good.

It's the only real thing I've come across UI wise I don't really like on the new system but still its not where it should be for something so integral. Me and 4 dudes played in game chat tonight instead of party chat simply because we didn't want to mess with it this evening.

Played an Xbox One tonight at Mup's place.

I'm really impressed by the entire thing. Microsoft successfully delivered on their goal of making a personalized media/entertainment console. I was wow'ed by many of its features, particularly the new Kinect.

As a preface, I'd say that I watched the Giant Bomb livestream on Thursday and was not impressed by the tech in any shape or form. Drop outs, kinect wouldn't understand half of the commands registered, the snap featured seemed pretty unwieldy. But doing it in person, in the comfort of someone's home, we had no issues. The kinect could register almost all of our commands. The only time it got weird on us was when we tried to search on Bing to try out the snap feature.

"Search for penis", "Dude, I don't see any penis." So the Xbox suggested Superman and we did,"search for Superman," and we still didn't get Superman.

In a long night of game playing and fiddling with the UI and console that was the only time the Kinect fucked up for us.

I'll separate this into sections:

Hardware

When I first got to Mups' place, he was playing NBA2k14, and the game was installing. I knew that ps4 allowed you to play games while games downloaded, but I'm not sure about installation. I wasn't knowledgeable about Xbox One's capabilities in this area, but I was more than impressed. Instead of waiting for the game to install, he was just playing the game in the middle of installation. As someone who is far too used to downloading games on Steam and installing games on ps3 and having to wait, wait, wait, I thought this was beyond fucking incredible. The installation itself took almost 40 minutes to an hour - fuck, that's a long time, how many gigs IS that game? - but the simple fact you COULD still play never stopped impressing. Being the first thing to witness as I walked in to demo a next generation console really made a huge impression on me, as it is something I REALLY don't see either the 360 or ps3 being capable of. Steam needs this NOW. IMMEDIATELY.

What's also impressive is how the game ties into the interface. We'd say,"xbox, home, in the middle of play - mind you, it was still installing - to go to the home menu and we'd get a little screen cap of the action. It was still installing in the background. COOL. You know what's cooler? He showed me a little trick and went,"Xbox off" to cut the systems power. We rebooted it and the system still kept his place on where we put the game in the background by going into the menu, and we resumed play. That feature should be required in all consoles going forward. Fuck yes.

Speaking of booting the system up, I like how personalized it is. Say "xbox off" and the second he picks up the controller, it says,"Hello _______" which I think is a nice touch. However, the system expands upon such personalization within its friend list features. We saw that Mojo had been playing Dead Rising 3. We could instantly see a clip of him playing the game. Like the PS4, Xbox One has a really good way of allowing players to be social and share videos of themselves playing games, for tips, or maybe just to show how awesome a one particular game is.

Even when you go to the store page of a game, for example Ryse - which we looked at - you can see uploaded user videos of the game. This is a great feature because now, you don't have to go to game trailers or youtube to see if a game is for you. You can just go to the games individual store page and watch someone playing it. Another blow against the ever irrelevant gaming press. Convenience is the main feature and attribute of the Xbox One, and it embodies this into every facet of its user interface.

Xbox One, is a very impressive piece of technology. For all the arguments that it is weaker, it is still a marvel at some of the things it is capable of doing.

Software

NBA2k14 - This game is fucking hilarious. The mo cap technology for the players would be great with weed. They'd make these stupid, unnatural faces, that had me dying. We'd mimic them and that game is a great party game for that alone. I didn't play it because, unfortunately, no two controllers, but hey, it's NBA2k, the only basketball game in town, and for a reason.

(http://djsdoingwork.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/nba-2k14.jpg)

Look at that fucking face.

Dead Rising 3 - Fuck yes. When I picked up my Xbox 360 in fall 2007, I did so with the intent on picking up two games: Dead Rising and Blue Dragon. I didn't come away disappointed with either of these titles. I have very fond memories of pre-Kinect Xbox 360 and its early titles, and Dead Rising is the king of them all. I ended up playing it 6-7 times, and still never came close to a 1000/1000. As the first game of that generation I owned, Dead Rising has a lot of sentimental value for me. Dead Rising 2, while good, was a step back in practically every regard, but Dead Rising 3 is a complete return to form.

The main issues that lie with DR2 are its difficulty. It was easy, no matter what I tried. In DR1, I loved micromanaging events. Most games teach us to savor winning, Dead Rising taught me to savor losing. You would lose - a lot. Certain missions had strict time limits, and you couldn't possibly be in three, four, or five places at once. You had to decide what you valued at any given time, with an entire shopping mall to organize your onslaught. Gamers traded tips on how best to do this, or how to do that, and it was a very social game experience due to its difficulty. Dead Rising had tension. Dead Rising 2, by comparison, never had a hint of the word. Dead Rising 3 fixes this.

Missions aren't just the only way DR3 makes the game tense. Just traveling the games landscape is challenging. In DR1 and 2, zombies were mostly just fodder. There were specific enemies that WERE tougher, like the troops in DR1, or the prisoner psychopaths, or the cultists, but for the most part, killing zombies was easy and breezy. DR3 though? The first thing I did was try to grab an axe. I swung it a few times and pretty soon I was overwhelmed by a zombie horde. Not only do weapons NOT do the same amount of damage they did in the past - an axe would take 1-2 chops to net you some PP - but they have a VERY short life as well. This axe lasted me less than 30 seconds before it started blinking red. Zombie hordes are also much, much larger.

So that means you're already handicapped in DR3. Another handicap? Zombies just don't fuck around. In past games, you could dodge them easily. You could literally go in to a zombie horde with a baseball bat and turn them all into jelly without a scratch. You cannot do this shit in DR3. Not only are your weapons weaker and last shorter amount of time, but zombies are harder to evade. If they get close, they WILL grab you. So if you see a large swarm of zombies, your best bet is to use cars as a defense. The game then turns into an odd platformer, as you're jumping from car to car, trying to escape the grasp of a horde.

(http://www.digitaltrends.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Dead-Rising-3-screenshot-hero.jpg)

The map is so much bigger as well. Dead Rising 1 and 2 take place in confined areas: a mall and a casino/hotel. DR3 takes place in a city, and the map reflects this. We were struggling to get to places while rushing to complete side mission tasks. This makes the game even more tense, because the map is so fucking huge, with short cuts, and high ways, and long paths, and huge zombie hordes. Dead Rising 3 is a nice modern revamp on an old classic that expands up on what worked in both previous games.

I played maybe an hour of Dead Rising 3. We traded controllers and gave each other turns, and damn, was it fucking fun and a complete return to form after the - slightly - disappointing Dead Rising 2. I am actually mad that Capcom made this game exclusive because everyone - pc, ps4 - deserve to play this gem, based on my limited time with it.

Final thoughts:

Xbox One isn't a perfect system, it has a few kinks. But when it works, it works really well. As a mass media consumption device, this thing is great at what it does, and I won't blame anyone for wanting one after my time with it. Micorsoft have had a rocky year. What, with rumors plaguing their new system for months before reveal, to the actual lukewarm reveal, to the arrogant quotes by MS mouthpieces after the fact, to the PR about face. This hasn't been Microsoft's year. But damn if they didn't put out a quality product and an AMAZING piece of tech. If you want a console that do an all in one thing, the One would no doubt suit your needs. I haven't played a PS4 yet, but after tonight, I really can't wait to see how it compares.

Well seems I might have gotten one unit that is a disc muncher. And then the unit in the living room suddenly became completely none responsive to anything, but then it freaked out and did everything I had tried to make it do in like 30 seconds. I don't know what the fuck that's all about as I was just looking at achievements. Also I don't know if it's the games servers, but I haven't been in a game of NFS Rivals with anyone online. And since the game has a set number of cop resources in the world the fucking cops all come after me. I took a little video to show how many helicopters came down on me, It was totally unnatural.

For all the shit CoD: Ghosts is getting I'm going to say this. This is a pretty damn good game and its damn good looking too. Yeah it may not be perfect, but it runs great. Only issue I have is the game randomly will auto aim to a point in the level where other enemies are that you can't even see. Story is thin so far, but it's CoD so I don't expect Oscar material.

I can't wait till the headset's that are compatible for Xbox One come out as much as I love the audio through my speaker setup it'd be nice if I want to play games late at night. Also I heard that the reason the headsets aren't out yet is cause it has to be compatible with Kinnect's audio logic processor. Meaning that the mic on the headset will act as the microphone array for voice input. Hence why they have to be licensed due to them using the wifi connection of the controller to piggyback the audio to the headsets.

DR3 Nightmare mode is -really- hard to juggle for 100% run - I think it's really made for strictly story mission. I'm level 22 or so, will probably just restart and blaze through the story.

There is no way you are 100% the game on Nightmare mode. Story mode is clearly where you do most of your collecting and such.

Yikes, I think Nightmare Mode and Story Mode are different save files. I guess I'll just blaze through Nightmare Mode and then play Story Mode.

Nevermind - from X360A

Quote
-Actual roadmap coming later, but just be aware that completing any mode allows you to start with the same stats in the other mode, or via chapter select. This means you can complete Nightmare mode and start Story mode with the same character, or do Story mode to power yourself up for Nightmare mode. The only stuff that doesn't carry over is the number of follower/survivors you have on the survivor board.

the amount of fake F2P bullshit that seems to be in all the 1st party games is disgusting

yeah, it's gross, but it's not only Microsoft doing it.  Gran Turismo 6 will have microtransactions, and no one touches EA.  I only have myself to blame.  In 2004 I bought a bmw m3 for project gotham racing 2.

I am actually mad that Capcom made this game exclusive because everyone - pc, ps4 - deserve to play this gem, based on my limited time with it.

The rumors people are rolling with now is that Capcom was going to cancel the game and Microsoft picked it up (similar situation to Bayonetta 2 on Wii U).  "Be even more upset at Capcom" is what I'm saying.

Still holding out hope for PC or PS4 version.  If not, DR3 will likely be my first xbone game whenever I pick one up.  Game looked really fun in the giantbomb videos.

I don't get it either.  It's not just that everything is an app, they changed the core functionality that made Live on 360 work so well.  I assume they just weren't finished yet.  They spent so much time making sure the voice commands and new features worked and that's all fine and dandy but the stuff that Live is already known for is borked.

Good thing I don't do much multiplayer stuff.  The benefits of having no friends.

Post by: Stoney Mason on November 25, 2013, 12:39:23 PM
The thing is even system level stuff can be pinned now. So its easier to just pin than to try to remember specifically where it is originally.


After thinking about it the reason the friend/party system doesn't work is because while a lot of things can be converted to apps conceptually and work fine, friends/party isn't such a system. Party and friends works as an overlay system to the existing system on xbox 360. And that's the more natural way to think of it.

Snapping it in is more work than overlaying it for the end user. Friends/party is such an integral feature that it works much better as an overlay system. It's like a "super app" in the sense that its a lot more important than other apps. It overlays others games, the dashboard, etc on 360. It's so fundamental I would argue you could have designed a controller with a dedicated friends/party button on it.

The only system issues I have so far is that it seems like my system unpauses randomly.  I'm guessing kinect is thinking someone is saying resume.  I was playing DR3 last night and paused it and ran to go to take a piss.  When I came back it was unpaused and I was getting mauled.  This is the 2nd or 3rd time it's happened and I just assumed it was something I'd done before this but I wasn't even on the same floor in my home.  So now I just go to the home screen and use the resume shit instead. 

But on another note, DR3 is really goddamn fun.  Easily worth the 50 bucks I paid for it.  I used to have to do DR1 and DR2 in short spurts because it was a bit repetitive and admittedly, a little too difficult for my patience.  The changes they've made keep it from being frustratingly difficult to just difficult.  I can handle that.  I find myself just killing zombies for the pure count now.  I love taking a vehicle and just mowing down mobs.  Or just grabbing a weapon I created and jumping into a crowd and slaughtering them.  Love it.

Is there a good vid?

I remember the dev saying that not even anyone on the team successfully completed everything

DR1 was one of the few games that I got really good at

Almost 1000/1000 it but I never came close to finishing all missions

I also jumped right back in after the credits rolled and started to clean up the collectibles and gold stars. Very few games compel me to do anything past the main story end. This is definitely one of the best launch titles ever.

do I need to get a certain rating to get the cannon in nightmare mode? I'm avoiding pretty much all side missions except a select few that I need to do to get access to some frank statues

Modders have managed to unlock mouse and keyboard support on Xbox One - as well as the use of pretty much any other kind of controller.

The video below shows DualShock 3 and 4 pads, a Wii Pro Controller, and a mouse and keyboard being used to control Xbox One launch titles Killer Instinct and Call of Duty: Ghosts.

It's made possible via the latest version of the CronusMAX mod, which is now compatible with Xbox One consoles.

"This is perfect for those who love their old 360 controllers, or had a real expensive modded 360 controller and now don't have to worry about buying another," modding outfit Team Xecutor explained. "Or want that extra edge by playing with a keyboard and mouse."

It goes without saying that modding your console is a risky business and instantly invalidates any warranty. It can also give players a sneaky natural advantage when using alternative controller types. Tut.

There's been a lot of talk regarding high digital prices of games on the PS4 and the Xbox One, with Sony in particular coming in for criticism for high prices that have since been adjusted.

However, rather than lower their prices, Microsoft has now gone in the opposite direction, with the price of Xbox One exclusives Forza 5, Ryse: Son of Rome and Dead Rising 3 all being raised on the Xbox store.

Forza 5, Ryse and Dead Rising 3 were all previously priced at Ł44.99, but are now on sale for Ł49.99.

Digital pricing on console platforms has understandably been criticised by those who question why digital prices should be equal to, or even higher than, retail copies of the same games.

Not yet, although technically PS3 full game trials already limit playtime to an hour.  Xbox indie game were similarly limited to ~5 minutes of playtime. 

So far it's an isolated case on the xbone and only limited by gamertag.  Not a big deal or anything, just sort of a weird decision.

Forza came in via gamefly today. I put about and hour and half into it.

It seems solid and good as I expected. It's the most polished and probably the best looking of the launch games imo. (I haven't played Ryse so maybe that looks better). It's more impressive from a next gen standpoint than Battlefield 4 or Dead Rising 3 by comparison. It looks like a sharp PC game with a nice framerate.

Driving is very good. Feels nice even with a controller. The drivatar stuff seems cool. I'm not sure how accurately it is really modeling people but just playing against AI that can make mistakes like I've seen so far is more fun for me. It's a solid Forza game exactly as you would expect. It's the only game also that has done anything with vibration on the response triggers where it feels interesting.

Amazon.com is selling these.  This is the first time I've seen it available to buy if you didn't want to stand in front of a store like a gomer.

So what are the best games out for it?  I'll get Dead Rising 3.  Forza 5 seems interesting but the IAP model seems very off putting.

They are fixing Forza 5, so it may not be a huge issue (as much, anyway)

Dead Rising 3 is good. Ryse is aight (short game). AC4 is supposed to be good - for an AC game, graphics aside. Then theres the usual titles, COD, BF4... NFS Rivals.

I wouldnt spend half a grand on it, myself. Save yourself the buyers remorse.

But on another note, the simulated damage is not a joke in this game. In the past entries you had to ram into a wall 5 or 6 times going 100 mph to really disable anything to the point where you couldn't compete. One mistake on here can really end the race for you. Not just engine damage either. The new damage to the brakes is a game changer. I love it.

I spent some time messing with Halo Spartan Assault.

It's a fun twin stick shooter.  There are 30 missions according to the game and at each mission, you have an opportunity to get a bronze star, a silver star, or a gold star.  It's a score based game so what star you get is dependent on what score you get.  You also get more XP if you get a silver star vs. a bronze star.  There are objectives you need to reach at each mission but most of the game is just shooting enemies and hiding while recharging.  The game rewards you for being very aggressive: just run into a place and shoot a bunch of shit up.  If you're worried about dying, there are numerous things to hide up against.  The best way to rack up a high score is pure aggression: you get more points based off of how many enemies you kill in a short period of time.  Launching grenades isn't a bad idea either as you usually get a few per stage.

The biggest flaw is that it is an IAP trap.  So anyway, I decided to grind a few levels, rack up higher scores, and try to get some XP.  There was a booster you could purchase that would give you more points and more XP.  So I got that.  Well, it turns out, the upgrades you can purchase with your XP are only applicable for that mission.  So that XP/Score booster I got only applied to that one mission.  However for 99 cents, I could buy what amounted to four booster upgrades.

The game is $14.99 but unless you want to grind a ton of stages to get an upgrade for a single mission, you're probably going to have to shell out a few dollars for credits, which will allow you to buy upgrades.  I suppose you can probably complete the game without any kind of upgrades but if you want those gold stars, good luck.  I think the game is fun but I suspect it lasts maybe 3-4 hours, depending on how hard you want to try to get the gold star rankings for each mission.

Finally got Dead Rising 3 and Forza 5 today.

Never played a Dead Rising game before.  As a result I suck at it.  I am doing a bad job of picking up weapons along the way to beat zombies with and as a result I kept getting my ass kicked.  I'll get the hang of it.

Forza 5 looks great.  The last Forza game I played was the third one.  It's been a while since I played a simulation racer.  I think the last one I played was Gran Turismo 5 but that game was so boring and stale that I could barely stand to race a single event.  Not the case with this game.

The biggest downsides to those two are the updates.  Forza was 6 GB and DR3 was 5 GB.  What the fuck is up with that?  Even though I'm going to go disc the best I can for the new generation, it seems like I might fill up that 500 GB faster than I thought, especially if the rumors are true that people are filling up hard drives with 350 GB of data on it.  The good news is that the data downloads fast so it doesn't take too long and besides I watched Netflix and played some Spartan Assault.

I really do like the Xbox One.  It's great to just watch Netflix without having to press a button, which is how I do it now.  Everything zips along and it really feels nice, it feels like Microsoft got their shit together here.

Add me as FineDevotee.

Some updates:

Dead Rising 3 - I got the hang of this game.  I played it too much like Dynasty Warriors where you clear an area before you move on.  That was a huge mistake because the zombies keep coming and there isn't enough weaponry to kill them all.  Furthermore, most of the PP I gathered are from side missions or collectibles anyway so once I got over that, the game became much better.  I got into Chapter 2 but I keep going back to Chapter 1 to get everything I need.  My initial upgrade path is for more PP so I figured getting everything else would be easier if I earn more points.  The biggest problem I have with the game is if I pause to let my dog go out and piss, it's a toss up to see if the game remains paused or not.  The Kinect commands must be extremely sensitive or something, I don't know.

Halo Spartan Assault - I like this game as well.  Even got a couple of gold stars without any kind of upgrades.  The biggest beef I have with the game is this annoying glitch (at least I assume it is) where after you get off of a turret, you keep firing your weaponry until it runs out of ammo.  It happens at random.

I'm digging the Bone in general.  It's nice to watch Netflix without pressing a single button on the controller.  I don't like gesticulating like a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow but the voice commands are pretty nice and the Bone seems pretty responsive.

As I'm getting into the latter stages, the Pay to Win model of IAP is really rearing its head.  Might break down and spend a few dollars on upgrades to finish the game.

I've sunk to a new low.  Some kids in Forza multiplayer last night kept bragging about this and that and how in real life they own an Audi R8 (but they sound twelve).  So since it was right before bed time I spent the entire race singing a song about how they each had 4 wieners in their mouths and so that made them gay.  I had no wieners in my mouth so that meant that I wasn't gay.  I'm not proud of it, but it was kinda fun.

So what kind of assists are you guys using in forza? My only assist is STM. And now I am trying to get by without any rewinds. Before I removed the braking lines I was able to get away without using rewinds and consistently coming in 1st. Now without it I can't seem to get any higher than 2nd and if I end up having to use more 3 rewinds I just restart. This is kicking my ass.

Ryse is surprisingly fun.  I wasn't very interested at first but yeah after watching videos on the activity feed I was compelled to get it.  The production values and presentation are top notch and the game is some good basic slasher fun.  Controls can be a bit wonky sometimes but it's not much of a problem except on Legendary mode.  Then it can make you want to commit suicide.

Finished the campaign.

I broke down and spent $6 on credits.  I used it for damage boosters.  I tried the sniper rifle but that thing is pretty shitty.

The game also starts crashing a lot on the F simulations.  The last mission took me to the dashboard three times.  Of course your credits don't get refunded so money was being lost because of the game's lack of stability.  Not good.  I have a bunch of leftover credits so I started equipping score boosters and started to try to get gold stars but the game kept crashing out so I stopped.  I still have a lot of credits left so I'll get back to it and finish it.  So my thoughts:

+ Fun, interesting gameplay the rewards you for busting into an area, shooting a bunch of shit up, and then moving on
+ Standard, familiar twin stick shooter controls
+ Decent graphics; not quite new gen quality but good enough
+ Stages last anywhere from 4 to 8 minutes usually.  In later stages you will likely need to replay stages, especially if you're like me and suck at games

- IAP model in which most of the IAP sucks ass and is limited to just one mission
- Game crashes a lot in the final stages
- Weird bugs: getting out of a turret sometimes results in you automatically firing your weapons (you can stop this by pausing), the game will sometimes change the direction of your fire, and firing weapons out of the hovering vehicles is wonky and unintuitive

This game is ok.  Not worth $15 but if it is on sale some day for $5, then it isn't a bad deal.  I would make some snide remark about how this game diluted the Halo brand but I'm not sure if anyone gives a shit anymore.  If anyone is interested in playing coop, let me know.

The game has a persistent online stat's management that works with all of your friends scores. So essentially you're always playing against your friends best scores on all courses. It's not perfect, but it is fun when you get challenged by a friend in the game to beat your best.

I think its something about the video capture that makes it look like that. Of all the games I've played I still think Forza actually looks the best (I didn't play Ryse) and performs the best and does it at 60 frames which doesn't come across in a video.

The bad: I'll be without my xbone for up to 2 weeks.

Don't feel bad Mupepe they had mine back to me in less than a week's time. Sent it in on a Friday and got it back a week later. Disc read errors are annoying as all fuck, and I don't even think it's a hardware based issue. I think it's a software issue that is due to something left over in the os.

Purchase any 3 qualifying Xbox One games from Xbox Store using your Xbox Live account between Dec 26th, 2013 – Jan 1st, 2014 11:59 pm EST and receive 3 months of Xbox Live Gold for FREE! Qualifying games: Crimson Dragon, Killer Instinct (either paid packs), Lococycle, Powerstar Golf, or Max: The Curse of Brotherhood. Offer is also available to all consumers, including those who have previously purchased 1 or 2 of the 5 qualifying Xbox One games from Xbox Store prior to the promotional period, and then purchase additional qualifying game(s) during this promotion (to equal 3 games in total).

I only bought Crimson Dragon and Max. I downloaded the "free" Killer Instinct, somehow they must have thought I bought it.

Why do you say that?  Is it still happening on your new one?  I've spoken to a lot of people and they tell me that my issues are definitely not the norm.  Either way, I really hope it is only a week.  Xbone is pretty much my entertainment every evening.

I think it's something to do with the original DRM they had in place for the discs. I only say that cause it reads the disc and I've gotten warnings that saying things that make me believe that even after I got my repaired unit back. When I see the warning again I'll take a picture of it, but It says something about having rights to play the game and is usually followed by disc read errors that happen after you start the software. My thought is that DRM was so baked in that it's the core cause of those errors.

Well mine just usually tell me to enter a blu ray, DVD, music cd or Xbox one game. Or it does nothing at all. I only get the rights error when I try to launch the game too soon and it hasn't spit that insert disc error. And when it gets going I never have issues. I dont know. I'll see I guess. We have long ass warranties so thats good

I bought the Dead Rising 3 DLC - it's pretty short for $10, but I enjoyed it since it ties pretty well in the single player (it explains why there is a giant chopper in the middle of the street, it explains why all the safe rooms are empty, it explains just who the hell Kane is - he attacks you in the army depot, remember? it also explains why there is an army depot at that point in the game).

Achievements are straight forward. It was easy because I was godlike (max everything) so I just ran around working on PP Trials.

I decided to work towards the 1000 on this one. It's gonna be a huge grind, but, it's gotta be done.

Quote
As I noted in my blog post about the December system update, we’ve changed the way these work on Xbox One to reduce the impact on our customers. For the vast majority of Xbox One owners who use “Instant On” (the low power state that allows you to instantly power up your console by saying “Xbox On”), the console automatically checks for updates when customers turn it off. This means now that we’ve made the February update available, the next time you turn your console off it will take the update during off-peak hours in your local time. All that to say, never fear you’ll see it sometime over the weekend. As a reminder, here are some of the features you’ll see in this update:
The ability to see and manage your storage space. With this update, you will find it easy to find how much space your content takes up and better manage your content. You can also control your install lineup and more easily manage your download queue. We’ve separated My Games and My Apps into separate lists, so you can easily create separate queues for both. Now you can pick the order in which you want your content to load and we’ve added a boot progress indicator so you can better track updates while they load.
The battery power indicator is back! You can see it right on the home screen, so you can easily track how much battery life is left on your controller.
And, you will be able to use your USB keyboard with your Xbox One.

Thanks!

Tip: Once you get the update, you can press the Xbox button to see the battery indicator on screen in the lower right next to the clock.


Quote from: Bgamer90
Full list of changes/improvements:

*Update to My Game & Apps to allow sorting of games and application lists, and separate queue lists for games, applications and installs

*Ability to delete game and application save data

*Improved installation and DLC management

*Addition of the controller battery power indicator

*Improved UI for accessing friends, achievements, messages, and party chat

*Game DVR app to be included in the Xbox OneGuide as an app channel

*Update to the boot progress indicators for system update

*Improve consistency of UX for update & install progress

*Separate game, application, and install queue lists

*Addition of USB keyboard support

*Stability and performance update

As has been the case in some Xbox 360 updates, users in the beta will be sequestered from the rest of the population. As the new features are focused on parties and friends, those in the test program won’t be able to receive party invites, use party chat, party matchmaking, and even party visibility.

OFFICIAL: Microsoft cuts Xbox One price to Ł399.99

Quote
Xbox One has been cut in price to Ł399.99 and will come with a copy of Titanfall.

The price cut follows a tricky start for Microsoft's new console. The machine has sold ok since launch, but has been eclipsed by its rival – PlayStation 4.

The new Xbox One comes with Titanfall packaging, an Xbox One console, Kinect sensor, Xbox One wireless controller, headset, Xbox Live Gold and a copy of Titanfall.

It also comes alongside a series of service updates to the Xbox One, as Microsoft looks to improve its online service ahead of the launch of Titanfall.

The new bundle will be available to order at retailers from February 28th.

I don't think the Kinect will be removed and I'm happy about that. If people hate it so much buy the system and then sell the Kinect. Removing Kinect for me basically gives Sony an even bigger advantage.

Xbox Fitness just for the things it offers has more than made it worth for me so far so has voice controls. But MS needs to lead the charge in 'core' experiences I would also say that MS should be and from recent news they have get the X1 into the hands of as much 'indie' game creators as possible. See what batshit insane stuff they can some up with. I want a nightvison Kinect game.

The much better motion controls should already be leading to some fun ideas.

This is good. While I think Microsoft was on the right track with the auto-recording and cloud service they had for sharing video, it still didn't provide the seamless sharing that Twitch offers.

The March update that delivers Twitch will also bring back toasts to the Xbox, the little notification pop-ups that tell you when a friend is online. And, Gibson said, Twitch will have its own toasts, alerting you when a friend starts broadcasting. These pop-ups, which can be disabled, won't appear on live broadcasts for others to see.

Jumped in on Xbone at the weekend, some great deals around in the UK. I've not renewed Xbox Live yet so I'm not playing anything online atm - will probably renew for Titanfall.. my tag is FrakEarth for when I do btw.

picked up FIFA, Plants V Zombies and Forza. Checked out the Dead Rising 3 demo -- what else is good? Ryse worth checking out?
Title: Re: *****OFFICIAL XBOX ONE THREAD*** REAL INSIDER INFO WITHIN *** DEMI SANCTIONED
Post by: demi on March 05, 2014, 09:19:23 AM
Ryse is good, but its short and you can finish it if you rent or bum it from a MATE.

Dead Rising 3 is great. I spent $100 on it ($60 + $40 DLC).

Max is nice and simple fun. Straight forward.

Crimson Dragon is decent.

Yeah Ryse is great to play through, not necessarily to own though.  If you like racing Forza is great too (I think that goes without saying) and +1 for DR3. 

They apparently lost my xbone or something during the repair process so they offered me a free game.  I own all the ones they offered except Zoo Tycoon so I got a free download code for it.  Woot woot.

Rayman Legend is alright, feels like an expansion pack for Origins. Unfortunately, can't get 1000 due to two factors:

1 - Requires you to win a game that is for local play only (req. 2 controllers)

2 - Requires you to do daily/weekly challenges for almost 2 months

The music levels are awesome though.

I finally got around to playing zoo tycoon. At first I thought it would be a toss away game I didn't play after the first 20 minutes. It felt like a dumbed down version of the tycoon games on PC.  But its really pretty damn good. I had a 5 hour session last night. Around level 30 the game gets insanely strategic. I really like it. Reminds me of when I first discovered sim games and I would stay up all night trying to make my stupid patrons happy

What to expect in this update preview

For those of you that participated in last month’s (1403) update preview, this preview wave will be a little different:

The 1404 update preview will run a bit longer than the 1403 preview. As a result, not all of the features listed below will be available in the first 1404 update. Some features will be enabled in 1404 updates that are rolled out later in the preview.

Some of the features listed below will be enabled outside of a console update. Keep an eye on the forums for announcements and information on when new features are made available.

What’s new in this release?
Game and app saves and updates. A game save progress bar will show you the status of your game saves. You will also be able to easily tell what games and apps are being updated or have been updated recently.
Friends improvements. Notifications will be added to see when favorites and friends sign in to Xbox Live. This actually was one of the most frequently requested features from the first preview wave and we made it a priority to include it in the April update. Also, friends who are in multiplayer will be identified in the friends list. We’ll also add the ability to view friends’ most popular apps.
Blu-ray 50 Hz video output support for content recorded at 50 Hz will resolve video playback issues some Xbox Live members in Europe are experiencing.
Kinect voice and motion improvements will continue to fine tune the quality and reliability of Xbox One commands.
Improved GameDVR video quality through compression algorithm improvements.
Updates to Xbox One device management to address issues controlling TVs, set top boxes, and receivers that our customers have reported.
New audio settings to tune how much volume is lowered when Kinect is used in communications.

Just a heads-up but my day one controller started showing signs of controller drift yesterday while playing Titanfall. I tried it in other games and it was the same problem. The right analog stick would drift upwards. So I got in contact with Microsoft support and I just need to send mine in and they will send me a replacement controller.

So cloud-powered gaming is a serious game changer but Microsoft hasn't done a quality job talking about it publicly. I mean Forza 5 used it for Drivatars (it sucks) and Titanfall uses it for the server AI that helps players (sorta neat) but I don't think the public generally understands.

ANYWAYS, here's a tech demo that shows off a small example what's possible:

Game DVR and Upload are among the most used apps on Xbox One.

 Now, use Game DVR to capture epic gaming moments, edit them in Upload Studio, and, with the simple click of a button inside the YouTube app (look for My Uploads**), share them instantly to your YouTube channel. The updated YouTube experience also allows you to watch YouTube videos in Snap Mode, add individual YouTube videos to your Pins, earn Media Achievements, and add your YouTube channels to OneGuide for instant access to YouTube videos right next to your favorite TV listings or App Channels.

Just a heads-up but my day one controller started showing signs of controller drift yesterday while playing Titanfall. I tried it in other games and it was the same problem. The right analog stick would drift upwards. So I got in contact with Microsoft support and I just need to send mine in and they will send me a replacement controller. Just a post for anybody who may have the same issue.

Got my xbox one controller from MS yesterday. It was weird. The new one didn't work at first. I was highly pissed. So I unplugged everything and let it sit for about 4 hours and then suddenly it worked.

Tonight, we will begin rolling out the next Xbox One system update. Again, I’d like to thank all of the Xbox Live members who previewed features with us and shared some of their feedback. Their input helped shape this system update, and we look forward to expanding our list of previewing Xbox Live members in the coming months.

Here’s the final breakdown of the features rolling out to Xbox One systems starting tonight and over the next few days:

Game and app saves and updates. A game save progress bar will show you the status of your game saves. You will also be able to easily tell what games and apps are being updated or have been updated recently.
Friends improvements. Notifications will be added to see when favorites and friends sign in to Xbox Live. This was one of the most frequently requested features, so we made it a priority to include it in this update. Also, friends who are in multiplayer will be identified in the friends list.
Kinect voice and motion improvements will continue to be fine-tuned for quality and reliability of Xbox One commands. For example, we’ve updated some of the gesture functionality to reduce false positives on non-hand objects triggering gesture commands.
Improved GameDVR video quality through compression algorithm improvements.
Blu-ray player supports 50 Hz video output for content recorded at 50 Hz. We’ll also be updating the Blu-ray Player app in the coming days to round out these improvements.
Controller and headset adaptor firmware updates will reduce audio static and improve wireless connectivity.
Silent reboot after system updates and system update on demand now available. If your console is in Instant On mode, the update will happen automatically and return to standby upon completion. This means you won’t need to power on your console after an update moving forward. If you want to take future updates when available without waiting for your console to do it on its own, we’ve added this option under system settings and you’ll be able to use it next update. It will only show as available when there is an update to take.
Friends Notifications
Thanks again for everyone’s feedback on particular features previewed these past few months and keep the feedback coming.

What I found out is you just need to unhook all cables and then hook em back up again. If you think I came up with that, no. It's on their support website and it works.

Yep. That's exactly how I got my controller to work.

After you unplug everything let it sit for awhile whatever problem you were having before seems to suddenly fix itself.

GameStop is doing an event this weekend for the Xbox ONE (http://www.gamestop.com/gs/landing/events/XBOne_Weekend_Event/default.aspx).

Nothing too special but you can buy Ryse, Dead Rising 3, Forza 5, Kinect Sports Rivals, and  for $50. Controllers are also $10 off.

Kind of silly when Amazon has has them for nearly $20 off: Ryse (http://www.amazon.com/Ryse-Son-Rome-Xbox-One/dp/B00FM5IY38) / Dead Rising 3 (http://www.amazon.com/Dead-Rising-3-Xbox-One/dp/B00FM5IY0Q/) / Forza 5 (http://www.amazon.com/Forza-Motorsport-5-Xbox-One/dp/B00FM5IY4W)

They have made a lot better choices since Spencer has been more in the mix. That can only be a good thing.

 It's amazing how this cycle repeats itself over and over through out console history. Company gets too big for its britches. Suddenly wants to dictate any and everything and thinks their success inevitably means they are correct and thinks it knows everything. Gets humbled. Becomes a lot less arrogant and makes better decisions.

Until the next time when they get arrogant again and start the process all over again.

ditching it after however much R&D went into it is good, I think.  no sarcasm.  trying to justify it or doubling down on a bum product is sometime worse.  from what I understand they need to overhaul the interface now.

rest of the announcements are trying to hit parity with the ps4 where they can.  apps out of gold, games with gold, lower price, convincing fans to rally behind and deify businessmen.  and so far xbone one has more interesting games announced, imo.

Well they had to change their stance unless they wanted to lose this console generation.

The PS4 is more powerful, a whole $100 cheaper, has a larger game library in the US, has more favorable development terms, doesn't require an online subscription to utilize third party apps, has no negativity or FUD associated with it, and has forward thinking technology in development (Morpheus).

Buying the PS4 is a no-brainer for consumers and it's why there's already a huge sales gap between the two. MS is desperately doing what they can to stop the boat from sinking.

PC drivers for xbox one controllers out now.


Quote
Beginning today, new PC drivers for the Xbox One controller will be available for download, offering PC gamers a better way to play using the Xbox One controller. We’re planning to release the drivers as part of a Windows update in the near future; however, today, I am happy to offer  early access to our dedicated PC gamers on MajorNelson.com.

We know our fans have wanted PC compatibility, and we know they wanted to be able to use the Xbox One controller with the same games and applications they have been playing with using the Xbox 360 controller. We can’t wait for them to play their favorite PC games with what we consider the best controller ever made and we’re excited for fans to experience the improved D-pad, redesigned battery compartment, new comfortable design and offset analog sticks. The new PC drivers will enable the Xbox One controller to be used with any game that featured gamepad support for the Xbox 360 controller. Simply download the drivers, connect your Xbox One controller to your computer through a micro USB cable and you’ll be gaming in no time.

I prefer it to the 360 controller although its has slightly different strengths and weaknesses.

I prefer the analog sticks which feel less cheap and flimsy than the 360 ones. I like that the "back" and "start" buttons are beneath the guide button instead of along side it as I was constantly accidentally hitting it. Some people don't really like the bumpers as they function best when pressed on the edge end instead of the middle like the 360's one. That doesn't really bother me based on the way I hold the controller but it bothers some people. The D-pad is better but honestly the d-pad is mainly used for toggling stuff or menu navigation so the fact that the 360 one sucked never really was an issue to me. Other than that its roughly the same. The controller uses a micro-usb to connect to PC.

http://www.amazon.com/Micro-Cable-XBOX-PLAYSTATION-Controllers/dp/B00852KK28

I tried it on a couple of PC games and it seemed to work fine although obviously have to do more testing to see if any quirks arise.

My controller did go out on me twice. Once with analog drift and the other with some funky weird problem where it wouldn't sync with my xbox one. I sent it back to ms who had to replace it twice. Not sure if I was an anomaly case or the early run had a defect.

Yeah, it's your standard micro USB cable AKA every phone cable not from Apple.

X1 is great. It felt weird and strange at first. Felt small to me, like how it fill my hands very tight. But now I honestly can't go back to 360. Feels too "plasticky" cheap compared to it.

However a few of my games won't let me install them and now I can't play Peggle 2, Project Spark, or Xbox Fitness. At least I got the super helpful error code: 0x80072ee6.

:lol

EDIT: I am IT pro numero cinco. I fixed the problem like boss. :pimp
Mine did that as well.  I did a hard reset and then everything worked again.

Snap Mode for Achievements: As we showed at our E3 Green Carpet event before the show, we’re offering an easier way to track and view your achievements in the moment. With Achievement Snap, you can track your achievement progress in real time without ever leaving the game. You can also ‘Get Help’ on any Achievements you’re struggling with. Xbox will scan the web for you and deliver relevant tips and strategy content right to your TV.

Double-tap to Snap: Double-tap the button on your controller to bring up Snap Center, where you can launch Achievements or any other snap-able app, without leaving your game. Already have an app snapped? Double-tap quickly switches between your game and the snapped app.

Choice of Spoken Language: Folks in New Zealand, Ireland and Austria, with this update in July, will be able to select voice control using the English or German voice models from other countries.  And if you're an expat in an English-speaking country, you, too, can choose any of the other English language models that fit you.
 
Future Digital Bundles and Compilation Discs: We’re doing some work now so that publishers will have options for great digital bundle and disc compilation offerings in the future. As we test this feature, we’ll be seeing more flexible combinations of game titles and game content.

‘Like’ Game DVR clips: We’re adding the ability to ‘Like’ all your favorite Game DVR clips as well as activity feed items in SmartGlass.

The headset. It just suddenly stopped accepting my voice. Since theres practically zero way to test voice aside from party chat by yourself, it is hard to troubleshoot. The headset seemingly works fine, I can press te mute button, I can change the volume, and hear the subsequent beeps from it when its at max.

You've probably already tried it but unplugging everything including the power and reconnecting all the audio cables tends to fix my problems. My headset is a 360 headset and it has a weird quirk where whenever I resume from sleep mode, my mic won't work but if I unplug the power and reboot it will work. Not sure why that is the case but its that way every time for me.

Post by: Stoney Mason on August 18, 2014, 04:38:17 PM
okay I understand now. There was an update last night but I've always used a wired connection so this isn't an issue for me. I guess I would first do a full power drain where you unplug the power from the xbox and then reboot after 30 seconds. That seems to fix just about every xbox one problem I've ever had. I'm going to assume you already did that though.

I would then maybe test your xbox with a wired connection just to narrow it down and make sure its not the router. Maybe also try running the network diagnostic test stuff in the xbox settings to see if you are dropping packets or something more obvious is going on.

I did quick look through in the xbox one reddit update thread and nobody mentioned such a problem but you never know. It could be a unique or rare bug or problem.

Played some Warframe last night. It's an improvement from back when I played it on the PC a long time ago. There is now a full blown tutorial over the first few missions to teach you some of the stuff which wasn't there before. It still leaves a lot out but any extra help is welcome. Frame rate can be a bit inconsistent. And I've run into a few crash bugs.

Has nearly all the PC options though which is nice and you can remap every single button which every console game should have. I think its worthwhile if you liked the PC version.

Post by: Eel O'Brian on September 04, 2014, 10:50:16 PM
Okay, so other than the whole XBL clusterfuck I like this console okay. It's big as fuck and heavy as fuck and the top vent is comical overcompensation for the RROD 360 experience, but it's quieter than my PS4 at load and it's sleek. I don't have a Kinect (I told the dude to keep it and trade it at Gamestop, I think they give $40 or so for it).  I sit about two feet from my monitor/tv so I couldn't use it even if I wanted to. The controller is nice, seems solid and the material feels premium compared to the lighter PS4 controller. I like the larger shoulder buttons. The proprietary connector for stereo headset is dumb and I felt a bit ripped off spending $25 for it, but unless you want to be wired to your XB1 that's what ya gotta do.

The interface is a bit "meh" imo. It's a little too busy, and I'm not a fan of how there's a sub-menu for everything. Snap and the TV stuff is useless to me.  I do like the activity feed, and how videos will auto-play if you highlight them.

The only retail game I have is Dead Rising 3. It's pretty fun, so far I like it a lot more than the previous games. Definitely not a looker, though. I see the trade off they made, all those moving zombies on the screen is pretty impressive.

EA Access is...kinda worth it. I did the one-month for $4.99 to give it a try, and that's way the hell cheaper than outright buying Peggle 2. No real interest in Fifa or Madden, but I did download BF4 vanilla so I can play with the Xbone Boresquad now. They're also putting NFS: Rivals up in a couple of weeks. If they keep a steady flow of stuff along with the 6-hour new game trials it's definitely worth the $30 a year they're asking.

The interface in general has gotten better since launch month by month. And continues to get better. And yeah the activity feed is nice as originally it was completely useless.

There are still things I wish it had like a easy accessible quick guide menu like on the 360 and the ability to send voice messages. Also the ability to make myself appear offline without having to sign in online first. Something else I could do on 360.

waiting for the store to change over so I can get that $4.99 copy...

While we're on the subject of the Xbox one's interface I personally feel those that don't have the kinect are missing out on one of the greatest features the console has to offer. I don't have to fiddle around with a controller to do anything on that console. It makes taking videos of awesome things a breeze and allows me to check out things while I'm playing games that I would otherwise have to stop playing to do. I think over the last year the console has become what it was set out to be. Granted it doesn't always perform to my standards and someone in my household is blind to the issues that the boxes do have. I still use it and it's integrated very well into my entertainment system.

No "surveys" anymore. Your back purchases dont seem to count towards your VIP stars, and I certainly dont buy as much as I did before.

They USED to give you points for playing games around launch, but then they removed it. Now it's come back in the form of Games With Gold.

They probably still send you a fucking fold out cake.

Use cartwheel (discount app) at Target to get 10% off, use that and buy some candy and you get a $10 gift card. I'd give you my GCU discount (20%) for Bestbuy but I don't know if you have one of those near you. Those are the only deals I know of right now for the game.

Sign in with whatever and then put the app on your phone then have them scan the barcode at checkout.

Here the page for destiny:

Edit: looks like the gc deal was for last week's games and not destiny. My bad :(

I have a universal coupon for 20% off Destiny at Target I could scan if anyone wants it. It should stack on top of the cartwheel coupon too.

Mups did you play deadly premonition or are you a fan of twin peaks? If so just buy it, if not hold off for a sale. It's that simple. I don't think telling you more would help inform your decision making abilities. The game is good and while the kinect stuff might be annoying to some I think it's part of the games quirky side. The story and characters are engaging and unique, and this is just the start there is more to come.

Post by: Stoney Mason on September 19, 2014, 09:32:53 PM
I loved the story and the characters in deadly premonitions. The gameplay from moment to moment was not my bag. So I'd like a more story focused game from that dude where the gameplay is almost a minor part of it.

Have no idea where D4 fits on that scale.

The Asscreed bundle is the best deal, Black Flag and Unity both included. Black Flag is a good game (that you won't ever finish because Ubisoft games are way too fucking long). You could always sell the codes, too.

What a bunch of half-assed amateur bullshit the Smartglass app is. I've been sitting here for half a fucking hour trying to rearrange my pins and group them together (games, video, etc.). Goddamned thing never syncs right. Also, why the fuck can't I just rearrange the pins from the XB1 itself with the controller? All you can do right now is select one with "move to front," and that's like playing one of those sliding picture puzzles you used to get when you were a kid. How hard would it be to let me select a pin from the menu and just fucking drag it with the stick to wherever I want it?  I just said to hell with it and unpinned everything.  What the fuck good are pins if it's just a random jumble of bullshit you can't organize? Between shit like this, and the PS4 still lacking advertised features a year after launch, it's pretty clear the OS/UI on both these consoles were rushed out the door as quickly as possible.

So I installed my bitchin' :drudge new firmware :drudge for my fucking controller and was rewarded with it completely losing sync in the middle of gameplay. I turned off the console using the button on the console itself, but the controller light stayed on. I took the batteries out, tried turning it on, it just glows a steady light and doesn't connect to the console. I connected it by wire and it still does nothing.

Should I factory reset my controller now or what? I love this console dearly.


Oh and when I try to sync it using Kinect, I get a message on screen saying my Kinect is unplugged even though I can see the red lights and it face ID'd me when I turned the console on. And interrupted my gameplay session half an hour ago by forcing me into the XBox Marketplace via voice command somehow. Another brilliant innovation.

The last update was pretty good for me. It fixed the controller turn off issue for me but more importantly it actually fixed a problem I had since the system launched. I had an expensive pair of Astro A40's that worked on the 360 but never worked on the x1. It pissed me off. The last controller update fixed that.

Nope. I did a console reset where you hold the power button for 10 seconds and then resynced the controller from new and it worked.

Not on the preview either but thanks anyway for the link.

If you want a preview invite Viscen I can send you one but I have a feeling you might like that less because the preview builds tend to be buggier at first than the builds that go out when they launch to everyone else.

It isn't but they did say something like there is always the chance if they make a significant change, then that possibility does exist. But you can always opt-out of the preview beta at any time and probably reset your console I believe. .

Also the screenshot mode seems nice.

For what its worth streaming from xbox one to PC is also working now in the latest build of Windows 10

Not my video but I tried it last night also. It's okay. Possibly feasibe for non-multiplayer games although the compression and artifacting during fast paced stuff is visible.

MS are taking votes for the next Backward compatability wave. Publishers just have to sign off and MS does the rest, but anything removed from the digital store like Marvel Vs Capcom 3 won't be available.

Still way better than what Sony is doing for the PS4 though. Instead of popping in your copy of Deus Ex or Kane & Lynch, you'd need to pay $15 for each.

As I was typing this, I realized PS3 backwards compatibility isn't even on the table right now.

Yarp. Aiming for a 6TF+ device (So probably AMD Zen+Vega unless they are going back to Intel/Nvidia) and Oculus compatible leaked so far.

They seriously need some megaton games at this point though. Xbox has been solid but not spectacular since launch compared to PS4's gradual step up in title quality after 2 years and Wii U's outright nosedive in quality since 2014 and "More powah" is only going to satisfy console stans on youtube. Gimmie some fuckin' amazing games this E3 that had the same impact the original Gears did for the 360 and not just new hardware.

Yeah all that power is no good with games that make people go 'Wow' since this machine is looking like a late 2017  release

I'm hoping games like Scalebound will move over to the new machine and take advantage since that game is apparently late 2017. It's a no brainer. (but MS being MS may not see it that way) Also seeing as 2017 is a Halo year that would be good as a launch title. But MS really needs a knockdown new game or sequel to one of their newer IP's.

Being the least liked machine this gen has fucked up how receptive people are to their new IP's which have mostly been great but overlooked.

Halo 6 is a 2018 game. If they go Early 2017, the front tier game is probably going to be Scalebound. If it's late 2017, likely Forza 7 or something they money hatted.

Depends if it's Polaris or Vega. PS4 Neo is a polaris device for sure because it's meant to be just a bump of the PS4 specs without breaking compatablity. Xbox goes full next gen and goes a full prototype Zen/Vega chip or even a kaby lake (Maybe even Cannonlake if it's ready?)/pascal duo using HBM2 (Which would solve back compat problems with 360/Xbone games using the consoles static ram), I could see them pushing 6TF, Possibly further without having to eat costs or only take a small lump they can write off with software attach and an Xbox Live Gold subscription. 360 was produced eating costs but it was still making money due to software/online subscription and made it's money back by 2009 despite the RROD write down (If that didn't happen, it might have been as early as 2007). They could easily push it to mid-high tier gaming PC levels riding the current big move in PC Gaming.

It's an interesting situation. All we definitely know is that the Surface hardware team is making it and this was a controlled leak by far since the PS4 Neo reception was mixed at best and they would want to gauge their own audience and the gaming audience so far.

Still not sure if the Neo leak was controlled or some pissed off developers said "Nein" and sent the deets to Austin Walker.   
Title: Re: *****OFFICIAL XBOX ONE THREAD*** REAL INSIDER INFO WITHIN *** DEMI SANCTIONED
Post by: G The Resurrected on May 30, 2016, 11:44:59 AM
The Neo details come of as a controlled leak, just look at the language used when talking about it when it first was leaked. It came off as if they were reading from scripts and told by someone that this is how we'd like to introduce the idea and concept of the Neo. Then you see how some outlets were very quick to "know" exactly what it could and couldn't do. Which granted was part of a technical document apparently, but it came off as if they were groomed in some way or form.

The leaks for MS on the other hand are coming from all over, from people in the know and those not in the know. I'm sure a fair bit of info is controlled leaks, but the stuff I know and the stuff that's come out is just people getting excited about some new hardware for once. Will it amount to anything going forward? I don't know I hope it does cause I haven't been happy with the Xbox one and as my preferred console of choice I'd like to get excited that MS might be able to turn it around for once.

I still think there is a chance that they are making a few miss steps with Xbox VR and UWP, but if their plan going forward is to innovate at a quicker pace to keep up with the market then it's completely logical to go that direction for them. Also just think about the potential homes they aren't in yet and how many more they could be with the other devices planned for release. If you would have told the Web TV guys that there would be millions of MS branded boxes connected to tv's they would have died.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Anyways the 2017 box currently runs at 5.6 (the max load shown during gameplay) and that was a current manufacture from april. It has a port for "Xbox VR" their label not mine, it's similar in size to the Kinect 2.0 port. The details on manufacturing and other stuff come from the test qr tag on the front of the unit. There was a lot more details about it but I'm not a game dev so I couldn't tell you what all of it meant. Device showed constant hardware statistics while playing an announced unreleased game. There's a few other details like ram allocation 24gb total 16 addressable by games/apps 8gbs reserved, Dashboard changes and stuff like that. This test was not NDA'd which screams to me that either someone fucked up or they want people to talk about this thing openly.

Thats pretty impressive if we can get that next year and still dont get the crazy drm they wanted for xbox one.

Dont see this device winning MS any wars anymore, that ship has sailed, but it could capture a piece of the hardcore crowd that spends a lot of money.

@takemybreh: the Polaris/Vega split could be true, dissapoonting if Sony goes down this road but understandable as they got this gen on lockdown. Seems well see Sony and MS taking the number one power spot from each other now every few years. If Neo is this year then PS5 will be 2019.
