Re: Xbox One

Yea that's what I figured is all I would end up using it for as well, that's why I'm hesitant to pick one up not that it's expensive, just can't really justify the purpose of getting it

Most games dont have kinect integration and since I do most of ny gaming at night near where my wife and kids are asleep, I couldn't use it even if games had it. I can't be talking to my xbox at midnight. Cortana could be interesting though.

Re: Xbox One

I too can't justify getting a kinect. In theory it sounds cool but I know I would never make use of it.

Just extend my Live account through 2017 of September, this guy is selling 12+1 for $34 bucks, just had to at that price. I was already setup through August 2016, now I added another year ��

Re: Xbox One

I'm seeing Kinects for $49 and thinking about picking one up, just wondering if it's worth it for me or if it will just become a decorative piece, lol. I don't have cable as I stream my shows (Netflix, Amazon etc) so the snap feature really isn't a big deal for me, are there any other pluses other then just being able to say "Xbox on/off"? Any input appreciated as I ponder picking one up, thanks

We use our kinect for navigating those apps just as much as we adjust volume, etc.

I rarely snap anything, that was most useful for stuff like fantasy football, but second screens like tablets are usually better for that and we've got a bunch of those.

Yeah, tv and switching apps it's great

Re: Xbox One

Since the headset has no boom mic it will not be best of quality but the price is for the sound it produces and features...not so much for the mic quality

Also, if you get Elite 800x, there is a 2 year warranty.

Re: Xbox One

I've started using decent headphones for gaming now. I picked up a pair of Philips X2 Fidelio on prime day and attached an inline mic to it. They sound and feel great.

Re: Xbox One

Yea I will probably just wait a little longer, either MS will make it a more useful and support it more, or stores will start wanting to dump their stock of them and the price will come down more in line with justifying picking it up just for the little added conveniences most of you have pointed out

True but it will probably never happen, I'm sure the only reason why Sony even has one is because of their deep rich background of headsets with Walkman and disc players back in the day, and even their Golds are good especially for the price but nothing great to make MS want to dip into that area when there are plenty of suitable 3rd party headsets out there, IMO

Microsoft sold the wireless rights to Turtle Beach. No idea how long it lasts or if it excludes them.

Re: Xbox One

Is it possible to download AC black flag through the xbl online store, since I won't have my xbox for a couple months?

If you have a gold account now, logon through your PC, enter your Microsoft account info and go to games find AC and click download, you be good and it should start installing when you turn your system on.

Yeah, this is what I've been doing the last 2 months, in preparation of me getting my XB1 in September. I went ahead and took advantage of the $30 XBL Gold deal in June.

Re: Xbox One

All the headsets seem to have conflicting reviews. I went TB elite 800x instead and totally enjoying. Sounds great, chat is good with right setting, and bluetooth allows to connect with phone and use APP to control, as well as take phone calls. The key is to plug in base and headset into pc with usb's provided at sametime to earforce updater. Loving it so far. [emoji6] truely wireless.

Do the 800x work with the ps4 as well? I just want to buy one headset that works on both well..

Yea bro, but for $300 it has to do everything well. I have the Sony golds and I don't use them too much because people complain that it picks up too much background noise. When I have my AC on they say it sounds like an air plain in the background.
