*****OFFICIAL XBOX ONE THREAD*** REAL INSIDER INFO WITHIN *** DEMI SANCTIONED

[Eel O'Brian]

NFS Rivals is up on EA Access today.

[Mupepe]

Yeah I agree with G. I love my Kinect for its voice commands. I got way too used to that. Sometimes tell my 460 Xbox on and feel like a dumbass.

[Mupepe]

New rewards setup

http://rewards.xbox.com/myrewards/

damn this actually pretty cool. How much is 5000 points?

[G The Resurrected]

$5 USD! You're rich now Mupepe 

[Mupepe]

yessssssssssssssssssss!!  i'll use it on dlc i'm always too cheap to buy

[demi]

New Rewards is shit, tbh.

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.

[Stoney Mason]

There are surveys. They are under my missions.

[demi]

Who is getting Destiny? I REALLY want to get it, but the fact it's online only is a killer to me. Who else is getting? Who is going to manage BORE clan? Unless multiple people can do it.

[Mupepe]

I'm getting it but I won't be able to play until next week.

[Stoney Mason]

Passing. I think its gonna be a fun enough game but I have my eye on other games and I didn't really enjoy the mp.

[Eel O'Brian]

I'm getting it for XB1

[G The Resurrected]

Both Roxanne and I will have our copies tonight after midnight. I'm down with a Bore clan if we've got enough people.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

u guys might wanna wait for reviews on the xb1 version just saying i heard some rumors  no troll

[G The Resurrected]

Yeah it's utter shit and plays horribly.  Played the beta and it was fine. If the bump to 1080p really comes at a cost to performance and hinders gameplay then whatever I've got more friends on Xbox than my PS4. Demi come and play with us.

[demi]

I'll probably cave, wish there was a deal somewhere. Need to blitz through Murdered and send it back...

[G The Resurrected]

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.

[demi]

I could do that, I still have my Target gift card. How does it work?

edit: Needs iOS7 to work. Won't be an option for me.

[G The Resurrected]

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:
https://cartwheel-secure.target.com/offer/17654

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

Sorry demi 

[demi]

No big, I can drink my 6 pack of Coke instead......

[G The Resurrected]

Gotta get that Diabetus!

Actually noticed that on the cartwheel site that they show you the barcode now so you can just dl that photo to your phone and not use the app. No need to have that app on my phone now!

I didn't bother with the beta because The Crew Beta was on PC at the time. Will probably wait and see how the first week plays out

[Quaker]

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.

Still not sure if I want it on XBone or PS4. 

[G The Resurrected]

Join us Quaker!

If you have a generic coupon that demi can use toss it up here. I'm sure he'd be happy to save more money.

[Quaker]

Cool, I'll scan it when I get home from work tonight.

[demi]

People already lined up at GS nearby.

[toku]

I'm EST so Bungie is personally fucking me with this 3AM unlock shit 

[G The Resurrected]

Just went to my local bestbuy to pay off the editions I'm picking up tonight and they're is already a line 20 deep. They got 600 ps4 and 200 Xbox one copies. Bonkers! I'm not going over there till 11 since they already ran through the shirts they were handing out.

Use your printer scaling to make it the size of a dollar bill.

[Eel O'Brian]

This shit is gonna take a year to install. Are they downloading patches while it's installing? DR3 took a long time, too.

[demi]

What settings would I have to tweak in my browser? I'm at work.

[G The Resurrected]

If you don't print in color make sure to blame target mobile. I'm on the hunt for ghosts today 😠

[demi]

I printed it out and it looks good enough. I assume the cashier will just type in the barcode # if there is an issue.

[MCD]

go offline --> install game --> go online and download the patches if you want.

what I do.

[Eel O'Brian]

Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind for the future!

http://rewards.xbox.com/mymissions/

Do those actually add up?

I've been on Rewards several times, but MS usually disables my account as soon as they notice I'm not physically in Los Estados Unidos.

[Cheddahz]

So, I just got an Xbox One this week (cancelled my Destiny PS4 pre-order for it) and I've been loving the machine so far. The UI is slick and the controller feels great and I now get to play Forza Horizon 2 whenever it drops!

[demi]

There is a demo for Forza Horizon 2 next week to get your dick wet to. Unless you are a girl then you will just have to find something phallic instead.

Don't worry, I'm going to download the demo for sure and play the shit out of it and then be forced to wait for the game to come out

[Eel O'Brian]

Dude, spend $5 and give EA Access a try for a month. Right out of the gate you'll get to play BF4, NFS Rivals, Peggle 2, Fifa 14, and Madden 25. If you like it it's $30 a year, and they'll rotate in new games.

For real? I just might have to check it out then, though I do have a bunch of other games I need to try out (got Dead Rising 3, Wolfenstein, and Diablo 3)

[demi]

Can you use MS Points to pay for EA Access?

[Eel O'Brian]

Can you use MS Points to pay for EA Access?

No, not as of now

[G The Resurrected]

Can you use MS Points to pay for EA Access?

Services can not be paid with points. You should get it though it's a lot of fun knowing I have those games for basically $30 a year.

[demi]

No thanks, I dont really play EA games anyway

[demi]

D4 (Swery54's game) comes out friday for $15

http://majornelson.com/2014/09/17/swery65s-d4-coming-xbox-one-friday/

[Stoney Mason]

I have a feeling this will be free in a few months or later this year via the free game program so I'll wait.

[demi]

Just bought D4... will stream when its finished

[Cheddahz]

Gonna have to pick up D4 tomorrow (I get paid tomorrow and what not)

[G The Resurrected]

Just bought D4... will stream when its finished

I'm watching this game being played in the living room and it's actually really good. Color me impressed!

[demi]

Fail, it wont let me stream because this game isnt in Twitch database or whatever. Guess I'll save it for this weekend.

[pilonv1]

Can't you pick your own title? You can do that through the PC interface.

[demi]

If I had a PC that could stream, sure. But I am at the whim of Twitch app.

[Eel O'Brian]

Is it the good kind of DP weird?  How are controls without kinect?

[Stoney Mason]

http://www.destructoid.com/review-d4-dark-dreams-don-t-die-prologue-episode-1-episode-2--281305.phtml

Got decent review.

[G The Resurrected]

Roxanne hasn't eaten dinner and refuses to stop playing D4. It must be that good.

[Cheddahz]

Honestly, I'm shocked that D4 is getting really positive reviews (and it's not helping me out, as I still have to get off work before I play it)

[Mupepe]

D4 looks good but I'm kinda hoping someone in here posts some impressions before I buy.

[G The Resurrected]

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.

[Stoney Mason]

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.
