How the hell can you complain about Microsoft giving us more?
Everything about this is a good thing.
What the fuck is wrong with this forum?
I should make a list of names from this thread on immature, born post 2000, fanboys, and never read anything they post again.

You're kidding right? While I agree with your sentiment, we would sooner see Mario on the PS4.
The headset wasn't listed in the contents at the time of first pre-order, and oddly still isn't listed on the page as of this morning:
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/pre-order-xbox-one
("Whats"? ow, my eyes)
Edit: hah, they *just* updated that pre-order page to include the headset in the list in the time that I was posting.
"Xbox One system software uses a significant amount of storage."
I wonder how much we'll have for actual games - 450 GB? 400 GB? Less...?
A formatted 500GB has about 460 I think. Out of that set aside 10-30 for the OS and cache and we will likely have 430-450 available. I am leaning towards less than more, but over 400 makes sense.
Yea, it's getting rather annoying. It's part of the system, it's not going anywhere.

That looks ALOT lower quality than the build of plastics used in everything else..

It seems it's the other way around. Kinect sending IR signals to power on/off or control other devices in your room.

Official specs, please?
We have seen plenty of promotional videos for PS4 like dev diaries, DS4 trailer and UI trailer.
MS needs to provide as much exposure as they can because of their muddy messaging and reversals.
One company is really worried about their current brand perception while the other is not. The company with more "hey, look at me and how great this is!" is probably the one needing to boost their brand perception.

I guess just like general rumble, it is up to the developer.

Well it's a small hypervisor which is a few MB plus two OS environments, so yeah I'd say roughly 10-20 GB gone for OS stuff. This is also the reason the system drive isn't removable--unlike PS3 and Xbox360, the OS environment isn't a small firmware that lives on a flash chip, it's installed on the HDD.

If you were to remove the HDD, you would have to reinstall the hypervisor, configure it, provision two VMs and install the Xbox OS on one and Windows on the other.

This place is lower than Gamefaqs. Comparing a console to rapist and murderers. How pathetic.
These people are called "fanboys" and apparently hate competition.
I said this in a different thread but i wonder if the new Xfinity X1 DVR has XboxOne functionality built in. Seems like a pretty coincidental name if not.

Who here is complaining?
Why? I don't plan on using Kinect, EVER! I don't plan on leveraging the HDMI in and connecting to my cable box. I don't plan on getting XBL unless there is a compelling reason. I just want to play exclusive games.
Oh fucking shit that makes sense. Kinectless SKU at games com incoming.
I thought hard on this, and I think this is an appropriate response to that comment.
It's annoyingly entertaining. The same people razzing MS for 180s are doing there own version. They cry that if MS changes XYZ they'll look at an XBO. MS changes, they still hold up a middle finger. lol.
Well Xbox1 is not for you then.
98% of all statistics are made up.

You're right. A rapist would never consider restricting used games...
I don't get the hate for this either. I don't really like what Microsoft has shown, and it's great that consumer backlash is causing them to change their stance on many things. But this is nothing but a good thing for the consumer and a good thing for keeping a robust online community via voice chat.
It's not like this was the thing that is going to help or hurt sales. That mandatory Kinect and $100 for weaker hardware and less AAA first party studios and unproven indie support and f2p multiplayer behind paywall and apps behind paywall is still lingering.
But this specific thing is great for consumers.

Decided to go PS4 on launch(maybe it would of been different if the reversal did not happen but hey...) but I will be getting a One as well down the line,I might even look for one on the shelves on launch but I highly doubt I will find one then lol...nice of them to include the headset as well now.
But isn't Kinect the IR receiver as well? Assuming it is, that is a nice change from the 360 as it's easier to point the remote at Kinect (which is under the TV) than it is at the console which is way off to the side in my setup.

I just can't see how anyone who truly cares about games and the future of the industry could support this console...no matter how much they change. They showed their true colors and started backtracking because they were getting completely decimated in preorders. They don't care about the gamer at all. Sure, you'll have decent exclusives for a while, but then they'll completely abandon that in the end just like they did with 360. I can't support them based on principle alone.

It's on Skydrive and the pics are taken by a Lumia 920. Microsoft employees have to use every product in the MS ecosystem it seems.

Very nice, a step up from the 360's.
Same well adorned crap.

I don't know about that. That XONE headset seems like if I stare at it too hard, it would snap. I'd rather MS just sell a quality headset separately that was actually worth what they charged.

It's nice to want things.
Those things are integral to the system. MS knows Kinect can never reach its potential unless it is in EVERY box. And so it will be.
Some people don't like it, and thats fine. Buy a PS4. I am buying both. I wan't to play exclusive games as well.
Also, just out of curiosity. What Single Player only exclusives are you dying to play on Xbox One?
I'm buying a Xbox one because I love games.... Christ get over it
I really like the grippier texture on the analog sticks. I bet it feels nice to the touch.

So play the games and chill. Yes its more expensive because of Kinect. But its time to get over it.
