Dead Rising looks fun.

 

[Nastrodamous]

picked up nba 2k14, assassins creed 4 and battlefield today, even though i own ac4 and bf4 on pc already.......

 

[RoKKeR]

Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhh

I'm trying to convince myself of a reason why not to go all digital but that's getting increasingly difficult when I see stuff like this. Just pulling out your phone, tapping one of your pinned games and boom, there you are.

That's a next gen feature to me.

 

[danwarb]

I need Dead Rising in my life

Yeah, the more I see of it the more it looks like the best DR/zombie game ever.

It's like GTA, but with thousands of zombies milling about individually on screen.

 

[HawksWinStanley]

Dead Rising looks fun.

Yeah it does look pretty awesome. And the framerate seems fine.

 

[Wishmaster92]

thank you bookmarked this, hope i can really get one. i'm actually shacking lol

Good luck man.

Huh?

 

[RoKKeR]

Huh?

Using Smartglass to instant switch between games is neat to me and is really only a viable option if you are switching between digital games, no?

 

[Pollux]

Amazon on twitter says it's Day One.

Ok, and with the way this works...and bear with me for this...

If a "buy" option comes up, and I click it, is that unit reserved for a short period of time while I'm entering my information or can someone snatch it away from me while I'm trying to purchase it?

Very cool, but I love the new Xbox cases too much

 

[danwarb]

Huh?

I think you can launch games from the Smartglass app. You could just say "Xbox go to Dead Rising 3" instead.

 

[GTI Guy]

I thought this twitch stuff is delayed for Xbox One how are folks playing Xbox One games and showing on Twitch?

I agree. If digital prices become reasonable and see more price drops and sales to match other digital stores, then I'd be all in on digital. I would prefer to install the game off a disc and then purchase a digital license to just be able to play it whenever without a disc but I'll have to wait for Redbox to start carrying Xbox One games.

The same way they did it with the 360 and PS3, a capture card and a computer.

 

[soul creator]

it's cool, the disc can still act as a digital game...oh wait

 

[SenjutsuSage]

b-b-but why?

Had a tremendous loss in the family today to a heart attack. So, it kinda puts my xbox one far lower on the priorities list now that we need to plan a funeral.

 

[GodfatherX]

Nothing is held until your order goes through, item can sell out after putting in cart before you complete your order details

 

[Satchel]

This is me

I was ready to go 90% digital but Microsoft dun fucked up by making the best game cases on the market.

If it's like amazons black friday sales then the item is reserved for you for a few mins while you pay, best to get an account and payment set up before if you can to save time.

Hate to hear that.

 

[Wishmaster92]

Senjutsu i just read your other comment. My condolences brother..... Best to you and your family.

So extremely sad to hear about this man

 

[MXRider]

This app is so much better than the original. Fast and fluid.

 

[MThanded]

Is this for the day one edition, or the standard edition?

day one.

Sorry for your loss. I'll keep you in my thoughts.

Sorry to hear that dude. I'll be praying for you and your family.

I think that only holds true for lightning deals, which would include black Friday deals. Since this is a regular item I don't think it applies

Sorry man

 

[blinkz]

Quick question maybe someone can help me with, as far as I can tell there is no micro usb that comes with the console right?

also does the controller get power from a micro usb instead of batteries if you plug it in?

 

[Bsigg12]

No cable with the console and yes if you do plug it in with a micro usb cable since it becomes a wired controller essentially. Any micro usb cable should work.

 

[rokkerkory]

Do we have an official review thread?

 

[The Mango Sentinel]

I wonder if I change my order to two day shipping right now if I'll get my console on Friday. Anyone know?

Amazon btw.

 

[Entrecôte]

I said TADOW!

Ryse looks incredible on these apps videos.

I mean damn son.

Has a game ever been such a tease? I mean at least Knack looked boring in the videos. Trying to keep expectations low in case of major disappoint.

 

[danwarb]

Blanka mask electricity move.

 

[operon]

very sorry to hear about your loss Senjutsu

That would certainly nice. That was a feature that was lost with all of the 180's, yes?

Sorry to hear this. Stay strong.

 

[grkazan12]

I posted earlier in thread to no avail, but will it be to hard to find a non preorder console at say a Best Buy on Friday?

 

[S0cc3rpunk]

Good luck man.

thanks

 

[joshlpaige]

The best advice you could take is to signup for one-click purchasing. If this is as limited as it seems, having the ability to bypass all the pages prior to completing your purchase would increase your odds of snagging it.

Damn.....you have my sympathies as well as my thoughts and prayers.

How do you sign up for this?

Yea, unfortunately.

From what I'm hearing, you might be able to find a green box, but no Day One Editions. Supplies seem a little tight for the Xbox One right now.

 

[S0cc3rpunk]

sorry to hear about your loss Senjutsu

 

[FrankT]

These videos continually updating? Some videos I saw earlier I cannot see on the app anymore.

 

[Pollux]

Also, and again sorry for all the stupid questions, can I cancel a 1-click purchase a few minutes after making it?

I was planning on calling my girlfriend and having her try to do this as well so hopefully one of us would get it and if we both do cancel that order immediately.

how do you do that by any chance.

If you show up early enough on thursday then it won't be difficult.

 

[ZQQLANDER]

Hard, yes. Impossible, no. I would imagine that your best bet would be to get up early and get one on Amazon.

 

[RocketSurgeryTV]

Anyone know if you can use SmartGlass to wake the X1 from standby?

My deepest condolences to you and your family Senjustu.

Go into Your Account in the "Hello, [Your Name]" drop menu. Once there, Ctrl-F "1-click". It'll be to the right of the menu labeled "Settings". It's pretty easy from there. Good luck tomorrow.

 

[RayMaker]

damn that UI is fast

Is there a way to see his UI stream, Hes just playing dead rising 3 now!
