Re: Xbox One

It seems that this more about being upset that Tomb Raider is coming to XB first and not PS4.



Am sure if PS4 got the game first the outcry would be far less loud then it is now and some would just put up gifs of Mortal Kombat executions.



This is a business and Square Innex took a big payday to give the game earlier to XB1. Am sure they got money that would off set a few upset PS4 fans



When it comes out for PS4 they will also get those sales.



Smells like a win win to me.

This is really what it's all about. Sadly, some people have agendas and it's obvious. This is all a business move for MS to help their console out.

Sadly not even Tomb Raider can help out this console. With the recent rumors that the directx update won't change too much, I lost a lot of hope in this system. I love it for some games with friends, but Tomb Raider isn't going to make or break a console. I'll wait for the PS4 version or never play the game.

Re: Xbox One

Was not just you, but you need to go back several pages and re-read posts by you and ubernoob and see the back and forth. That is all im talking about.

Get over yourself, it's a discussion board. We were talking about Microsoft first party games and how they could have a better choice with the studios/IPs available to them.

If you don't like it, don't click on the thread. It directly relates to the XBOne and MS.

What does directx need to change?

So the console is doomed huh? Since direct x won't help much.. Even though most sports games coming out this year will be the same resolution and framerate this console is done huh? Even if both versions of tomb raider end up being identical you rather wait for the ps4 version or not get it. That says a lot. To me I see it different. I own both consoles and played and used the ps4 more in the beginning, but now I find myself using my Xbox more. Xbox seems to be doing more than sony especially with all the monthly updates. Xbox also had a better gamescom than sony and seem to be headed in the right direction. It also seems like no matter what Microsoft does they can't do anything right to some.

Re: Xbox One

The XboxONE/COD Advanced Warfare console looks sick! I'm thinking of trading my (future) XboxONE in towards it once its comes out. Ive already pre-ordered the Madden 15 bundle, I just don't wanna wait til Nov for an XboxONE. How much do you think I can get for a used XboxONE without Kinect? $350? $150 difference. Hmm wonder if its worth it.

Re: Xbox One

The problem with the yay/nay conversations is sometimes we use such strong language. Console choice shouldn't have life and death type talk.

When you feel so strong about a certain choice, you then look for it to be justified over another. It gets to be where we aren't having an informed discussion. Rather, we are just looking to be affirmed.

Re: Xbox One

This morning when I turned on and went to TV it asked to do TV setup. Afterwards I went to settings/power settings and there was a check box available for "on start, go to tv". I'm in the preview program so might not be available for those who aren't.

Re: Xbox One

Has the august update arrived for non-preview users? I'm confused as to when that is coming.

Have you ever read your posts? Always strong comments and negative comments, makes it seem more like fanboy talk to. There are other posts dealing with these conversations, that is all I am pointing out. This post should be about the xbone news and updates, not a bunch of back and forth to make you feel better about decisions you already made or not made.

Ummm. What exactly did DirectX need to do to not make this as you said hopeless console?

Last time I checked the xb1 plays games just like the PS4 does.

Or is a console dead because one has 1080p vs 900p or 900p vs 720P?

If that is a doomed console then maybe you should stick to PC

Re: Xbox One

September update preview details, though GAF users reporting the media app doesn't seem to be available yet:

• Parties – The Party App has been re-organized, so you can now see what activities everyone in your party is doing and tell more clearly who is playing in the same game with you. You can also more quickly perform common actions like muting, joining, or sending game invites. Also, Parties now have a Party Leader. This person can change whether the party requires invitations, and she/he can remove others from the party.
• New Friends Section – The new Friends section has been available for a few early access preview members and we’re expanding it to additional participants enrolled in the preview program. The new Friends section enables you to see at a glance what’s going on with your friends. You can stay up-to-date with your current activities, the most popular games your friends are playing, and a Gamerscore leaderboard to see who has improved their Gamerscore the most over the last 30 days. We’ll continue to roll this feature out to all participants in the coming updates.
• Media Player – A new app will be available soon that enables you to play media files from either an attached USB device or from a network connected home media server that supports DLNA protocols. The preview version of the Media Player app will initially only support USB devices, with DLNA support coming soon. Xbox One will support more formats than Xbox 360, including support for dozens of new file formats like mpeg 2 TS, animated gifs and mkv which will be added by the end of the year. See below for additional file formats.
• Xbox One Digital TV Tuner – Announced last week, this new hardware accessory will enter a limited preview program in Europe (UK, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain), in advance of its retail launch beginning in October.
• Stream TV to SmartGlass – Launching first in markets receiving the Xbox One Digital TV Tuner, you will be able to stream your TV across your home network to your smartphones and tablets using the Xbox SmartGlass app. You can also pause, play and rewind as well as change channels, without interrupting gameplay on Xbox One.
• Boot to TV – Now you will be able to set your console to boot directly to television when coming out of connected standby.
• Live TV Miniguide – For markets where OneGuide is available, a new mini guide on the bottom of the screen will display details about the TV content that is currently playing. You can quickly change channels and see what’s on other channels, while still watching TV.
• SmartGlass Updates – You can now post status messages from the Activity Feed as well as add comments and share items from both your Activity Feed and from Game Clips. Along with the new comment and share features, a personalized Activity Feed has been added to your profile. Messages have been updated to a new layout supporting a full conversation view. Additionally, we are adding the ability to record game clips directly from the Now Playing bar. Finally, if you upgrade the app directly we have introduced a What’s New page highlighting the features of each release.
• “Xbox On” in New Markets – Adding support for additional markets to use the “Xbox On” Kinect voice command to power on consoles: Australia, Canada (French), Italy, Spain, Mexico, and Brazil – a top used feature.
• Country Expansion – We’re doing a lot of work on the backend to prepare for Xbox One to launch in 29 new markets in the coming weeks.
• Multiple GameDVR Deletes – You will be able to choose multiple GameDVR clips to delete at once in the Upload app.
• Save your Avatar Gamerpic – A new option is now available to save Avatar GamerPics to your OneDrive.
• Settings Updates – New options help you manage your controllers and accessories. Also, Instant Sign-In is being moved to Settings, to the Sign-in, security & Passkey area.
• Bandwidth Usage Display – Located in Network Settings under the Troubleshooting column, Bandwidth Usage will show you how much bandwidth your Xbox One is consuming over a period of time. This is useful if you want to track against bandwidth caps set by ISPs in certain markets.
