    Re: Xbox One

    Looking forward to this. I never got around to playing Ori, then came word of a definitive edition and I figured I would just wait.

    Moon Studios’ sidescrolling exploration-platformer Ori and the Blind Forest captured players’ hearts when it debuted on Xbox One last year. And starting March 11, it’s getting the star treatment with the release of Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition for Xbox One, which delivers a multitude of new areas, difficulty options, and gameplay upgrades that should appeal to both new and seasoned Ori players.

    Current owners of Ori and the Blind Forest can upgrade to the Definitive Edition for $4.99, while all new players can pick up the full game for $19.99, which includes the original Ori.

      As performance continues to degrade, wondering if we're experiencing the slow death of our second Kinect. I do have the extended warranty from BBY on this one at least.

          The original was so good. I usually don't like those games. I will be picking up the definite edition for $5 since I have the original.

            I can calibrate it in a silent room and then while still silent commands are very hit or miss. I'm torn on if it's helped or hurt by the most recent preview.

              Maybe you already know this but your room shouldn't be totally silent matter of fact you should also turn up your tv volume as loud as you can while calibrating.

                Yeah you cannot try to calibrate it in a silent room or it won't work when there is ANY sort of noise.. turn on the fans, etc to get whatever noise level you normally have and then crank up the speakers to max volume it will calibrate at..

                  It was a test. I calibrated it and then continued to try and use it in silence and it was still unreliable.

                  The Amazon Echo sitting next to it just embarasses the tech completely and utterly, thanks to voice processing being done in the cloud.

                  Before the big OS refresh, and before my first kinect failed, I could use it from 40+ feet away and out of line of site, shouting 'xbox, on' as I came home.

                    Off topic, is the Amazon Echo the tube looking thing that you can ask questions from the Baldwin commercial? If so, is it as awesome as it looks in the commercial? I want it, but my wife may loose her mind if I buy another piece of technology. Not like it will stop me!

                        Have you tried a hard reset, lately? I noticed one day that my Kinect would only respond to 'Xbox, on'. I did a hard reset and the commands started working, again.

                        Hopefully, the Cortana integration will improve the reliability of the commands even more.

                          Every day or two, due to poor app performance.

                            It 100% delivers on everything it promises, it's remarkable and we have an Amazon Dot coming for another room and probably ordering a second Dot once we make sure we need it.

                            Wish we had one in every room, and will probably lean towards buying more devices it can interface with - Nest, home automation stuff, etc.

                            My 4 year old comes home every day and asks it to play his two favorite songs ("Alexa, play Head Shoulders Knees and Toes by the Little Singers" and also Best day of my life by American Authors), and we use it frequently for alarms and timers, listening to the radio, news and Pandora.
