I think I would end up losing the battery doors at some point! LOL!

If that's the case, I'll probably pass. Don't care to remove the battery pack after every play.

Do the 360 battery packs (charge and play) fit the xbox one controller?

PSN sucks this holiday season. It's not the entire service but I've seen "Sony Entertainment Network is busy" more than I happy to admit.

Xbox Live has been rock solid since Christmas for me.

Agreed. Universal thumbs up from my wife and me.

Only thing I want is the HBO GO app to get released. That's the last reason we fire up an old Apple TV that I want to move to the guest room.

Re: Xbox One

I am really enjoying the Xbox One. It has its issues and areas for improvement, but it's a nice start to something new. It's really cool to go down into my man cave and have everything accessible, just by voice. I'm watching TV and I can easily bring up apps or games and switch back and forth.

As far as gaming goes, I have played a little KI, Forza 5, and BF4. Before the new consoles released, I was worried about the whole resolution controversy. I'm happy to say that I had no issues with the two native 720p games. They looked and played great. I love the new controller, as well. It's even more comfortable than the 360 controller and the rumble triggers are a nice touch. The bumpers do take a little getting used to, but they're not too bad.

Overall, I am very happy with my purchase.

Microsoft had their Christmas meltdown like three years ago. I would assume, like Microsoft, Sony will get more servers up and running and will be more prepared going forward.

I say that as a 360 and One owner that believes the XBO is the best gaming platform going right now, in part because XBL is so good. We'll see going forward how well PSN does, but I don't think its weakness will be stability. I think XBL's advantage will be their cloud services that let developers do things in their games that PSN simply won't allow.

PlayStation (and PC) can do the same exact things "with their cloud".

It's not a new concept, nor is it as big as you may think it is.

The only plus XBL has is the whole dedicated server thing. That makes a difference, but even then it's up to the devs if they want to use it or not.

Re: Xbox One

I'm hoping games for gold starts competing with ps+...so far it's far from similar offerings

Re: Xbox One

I am enjoying Peggle 2 way more then I thought I would. Definitely a nice game to mix it up.

For those asking about the Live service, it has been flawless for me since launch day. PSN has been hit or miss.

I'm just starting DR3 and enjoy it. Similar to the others but better. I haven't played Ghosts but kinda burned out on COD. Doubt you could go wrong
