Re: Xbox One

They know people are unhappy with that feature set and will be making changes. Hopefully in a holiday/new year kind of timeframe.

This.

Can't remember where, but I read a Microsoft employee comment on that and state they will be making it simpler and more streamlined for people.

Man Xbox Fitness is great. The visual feedback and the challenges breathe new life into these home workouts. Would be great If they got DDP Yoga in there.

I think it would be a system seller if it wasn't going to be stuck behind two paywalls. And that's before paying for the Premier workouts.

Re: Xbox One

My only real problem with the One is how inconvenient the party system is. Thoughts?

It is embarrassingly bad. There were certain things the 360 did perfect and Microsoft should not have over thought the process. If the new party system was a conscious decision, that person should never be able to make another decision regarding the One.

Good news is they are aware and I am hoping it was just a time restraint thing that resulted in the party mess.

Other than that, it is a fantastic system. My other small complaints:

1. Blu-ray plays dvd-r but not BDMV. This is a mind-numbing decision.

2. Currently does not output dolby digital but it appears this will be patched soon as well.

DDP Yoga would be awesome. That would be the last excuse I needed to get a XB1

How is Xbox Fitness? I don't think I saw any mentions/reviews since launch. How much is included with XBL Gold?

Re: Xbox One

I have to give props to Microsoft support. My XBOX One started making squeakly sounds with no disc in it. Almost sounded like a cricket was behind my tv. I called their support. The guy on the phone ordered my system replacement in under 10 minutes. Should be here by Friday. Good news is I can still play games just have to deal with the sound.
Question: does anyone know how to save game files to the cloud? I don't want to start over in my games and was hoping I could transfer them.

I don't have a console yet, but my understanding was all your saves are now sent up to the cloud without your intervention. So you can go to someone else's house and pull stuff down. Can anyone with a One confirm?

Mini review...Xbox Fitness is really a great experience. It makes the typical workout video much more engaging by taking the normal workout experience and adding a layer for the "gamer." The visual feedback (red to green bar & points/stars) during the workout is an excellent component to keep you motivated and on the right track (doing the exercises correctly). The point-based system that translates to a star rating for each component and the overall workout helps in the motivation department as well. Plus, they have added in workout and overall performance challenges that let you compete both against friends and the average person in your gender/age group.

There are a variety of workout videos to suit all different kinds of people...free with your XBL Gold subscription until December 2014, there are several 10 & 20 minute workouts that work various regions of the body, a couple Insanity videos, and a few P90X videos. Also, they have a few workout videos for purchase ($9.99 each, I think).

After next year, I hope that Microsoft keeps Xbox Fitness either free with your Gold subscription or makes it very affordable. I have enjoyed using it so far...it is a good alternative for me when I don't have enough time to get on the treadmill or on my rest days. My wife enjoys it because it is easy to use and there are a variety of workouts to keep the experience from getting boring or stale. Because she has enjoyed it so much, I have considered getting another Xbox One to use in our workout area...where I want my current Xbox One to eventually reside in my house isn't really conducive to a lot of movement and, so far, I have delayed moving it there because we have used Xbox Fitness so much.

If I'm not mistaken, it does it automatically. When your new console arrives, simply add your Gamertag and all your stuff should be there.
