On Facebook, you basically have people saying that the X1 is barely a gaming system, with supporters of the X1 saying that the people saying that are just poor and should move out of their moms basement.

The situation is pretty civil, all things considered.

Seems familiar.


Reminds me of PS3 elitists. Only chumps can't afford a 599 US dollar console.

For the robosexuals of BSN they will be. Not that it will matter as they murder you.

It knows when you are sleeping. It knows when you're awake.

Does it know when I've been bad or good?

I cannot wait for GDDR5! Hopefully Xbox won't hold PS4 back.

Xbox One has non-replaceable hard drive, external storage is supported.

More bad news.


You can still buy an external hard drive. Small victories.

Boogie2988 made some great points

"Because we're not going to buy this as a way to watch television, we have a cable provider for that, we have Netflix for that, what we're going to buy this for, is the games we can play. All these features are nice and I'm excited for them, but they're not necessary if the system does not have phenomenal games."


Here's the thing, though. The Wii pretty much broke the old paradigm of the console wars by going in a completely different direction from what the others were doing. Yeah, so they lost a lot of support from the core gamer demographic outside fans of Mario and Zelda and Metroid that were going to buy a Wii anyways. But what do they care? The appeal to the casual, kids and families and grandmas market worked. They obliterated the other two consoles in early sales, and was the only console not being sold at a loss.

We as gamers don't give really give a **** about the "value plus" features or whatever you want to call them (I do appreciate some of them myself, but they're not really why I have a 360), but they do sell consoles . Kinect, believe it or not, is partially responsible for the lead in sales the 360 has taken over the PS3/Wii/Wii U in the overtime period of the seventh generation.

PS3 launch was probably one of the most colossal disasters in gaming history. Hurting people physically in line just to get a copy. Incredible, ladies and gents.

Haha so is anyone here gonna actually *cough* buy this thing?


Its highly unlikely, I disagree with its used games policy.


Does anyone have a link to said used game policy? 


Links would be pointless, sorry. The MS corp VP said fee would be full cost of new game, official twitter changed this, then contradicted itself before Major Nelson posted essentially saying you could play on your XBL GT on other consoles or something but going against previous tweets about not being fee. Now there saying it was just 'potential scenarios' they thought of.

If you aren't watching tv or playing CoD: Ghosts, Skykinect will poop out granulated cheese dogs and contact authorities.

And better not have your girl over and do the chica-chica-bow-wow in front of that.

The hard drive on later 360 models aren't "replaceable" either as far as I know. Only the original small-ish capacity ones could be pulled right off the side.

Not when you realize you can buy 4TB external storage for way cheaper than the console and just connect and do your thang

Though you wouldn't need nearly that much space anyway lol

True. But I would rather have the hard drive inside the console. And if the hard drive fails, do you have to replace the whole console?
