Buy a Ps4. We could play games together *.*
Honestly, if I was interested in getting an Xbox One I'd at least wait a week or two to see how things are going. Nothing is absolutely confirmed at this point but I wouldn't drop $499 with all this bad news going on. A lot of the reason why I'm picking up the PS4 at launch is because I've been ready for next gen and it sounds like they have their stuff in order for the most part beyond Suspend/Resume not being available at launch. The last thing I want to experience getting a console at launch is a bunch of errors or issues. I hate dealing with that with games already.
ftfy ;-)
He probably meant the very slight GPU raise it got a few months back. Look in his list of negatives it says significantly weaker GPU.

Crash to desktop now?
Links on these?
How is that clear?
Who says that it wouldn't bet? The Wii U doesn't run those titles in question at higher resolution, either. Apart from that, every other part of the Wii U's hardware pipeline is hopelessly underpowered, so the eDRAM has less chance to become the bottleneck.

I don't remember Snap being the culprit in last night's thread. That was mostly about VOIP and general Xbox Live issues wasn't it?
Or has Snap been *the* problem all along?
One company screwed up and the other one didn't. One sided reporting doesn't even make sense in this context.

it's an easy way to open a new thread about something it was discussed in a previous thread which was closed by a mod.
Xbox One News is having cold sweat over this

yes, please...
Snap being cited is the first I've ever heard of it. Before it was just known games crash. We now have an idea as to what it may be that creates the crashes.
I am going to! But not until next year probably.
He jumped ship just in time!

Snap functionality causing so much of the problem is definitely new
Trust me I of all people followed what was said in the other thread

XBL and OS issues on XB1 has nothing to do with XB1?
Ok Penello....
Funny you should say that
lol, I can feel the angst, he's right though, remember E3: "MS declines to deny"

I'm just gunna wait and see what the hell happens when 11/22 hits. However, me not knowing how plausible it would be. But I'd say they should delay the thing and work on getting some upgrades thrown in, plus fix the kinks. Because damn man.

This GIF would be perfect if it had a BSOD at the end.
That doesn't mean shit. The XBox1's GPU is still inferior in everyway to the PS4's GPU expect for the recent upclock.
yup you are correct
My old HP netbook with an Intel Atom CPU, 2 gigs of RAM, and integrated Intel graphics is "balanced" as well. That doesn't mean it's a good gaming platform...
The rumours when he tweeted that were about the journo shit storm that was brewing.
It could be something else happened yesterday and he wasn't talking about this at all.
Yep. Same two guys repeating the same thing over and over.
No, there are alot of sources saying the same things. It's a safe bet to assume that the OS is indeed a mess right now.
But that still wouldn't stop me from buying an XB1 if I really wanted one. This isn't as bad as the RROD because that was a hardware issue. This is a terrible software issue that will probably be mostly if not completely fixed by spring of next year. In the meantime, people will still be able to play their games and wont have to buy a new box like they had to with RROD. At launch, microsofts best bet is to simply hold off on releasing certain features (snap) until they can get it running properly. Their top priority should be on making sure everything that worked with the 360 works here. People care more about lost connections and dropped parties than they do about running a game and an app at the same time. Get the basic stuff running right, and then after launch, fix the rest and add it in one feature at a time.
They shouldn't delay. They should release the system with a bare bones OS, fix it as soon as possible, send out apologies, and then give everyone who had gold during that time an extension. That or give them a free XBLA title of their choice. A delay would destroy them right now.
Really? Could you link me the posts in the other thread talking about Snap crashing the xbox? I must have missed them... thx in advance!

That had nothing to do with these issues. That was due to some YouTube reviewer controversy.

Required Day One online-only patch indeed. Makes sense. Sounds like they'll still be working on the OS after the games are pressed, hence the requirement to take the XB1 online at least once.

at this point they just need to scrap the console and give up. Whoever worked on Xbone is gonna get reamed by MS brass

exactly. there are benefits to delaying something. improve upon it rather than release something that's not up-to-par for your standards.
Goddam DriveClub looks so nice there.
The delay is gonna do great for this game.
We know that.
The quesiton is, can they fix it in time? I have no idea.
Maybe read the date on the Tweet. He was right. The other night was about Sony not providing review units.

Wow...color me suprised if all this is true. What is going on at MS to get to this point? The best option at this point is to hold back some of these new features in the OS/Live system until they are ready and not release some half-baked stuff that doesn't work most of the time.

Thanks for posting. Consumers needs all the help they can get in making an informed decision.
