Since when did trolling become discussion. You can discuss things but when some people have an obvious agenda it makes a honest discussion extremely difficult. So spare the indirect threadwhining nonsense please
No problem highlighting issues, but if then both.

I highly doubt it. You would think fanboys would be busy playing their games (unless he's waiting like all euros) instead of continuing to troll.
Anyways, best to ignore that stuff and not derail the thread.
Has MS store shipped for you guys? My Amazon shipped some games today but not all of them despite all having 22nd November delivery estimate.
Your definition of trolling needs some serious work.
possibly, just be glad when things settle down in here, and the console fanboys on both sides spend more time on their respective consoles than on here.

How is FordGTGuy any worse than Artist,NetBuff,Gemüsepizza and many other Sony fanboys whose nicks i can't remember at the moment.
At least FordGTGuy has nice things to say about competition every once in a while,while those other guys act like Sony is the second coming.
Also quoting this for the new page,because why not?
Launch shapes up to be great,will join you guys sometime next year(hopefully).
Why the derail?
It seems you only ever come into Xbox threads to discuss negative news, and never the fact we are 2 days away from a new console launch.

Microsoft's Xbone's weak points needs to be exposed. From most reports, their next console is weaker in almost every category, down to even the boot time compared to PS4. Voicing our concerns is the first step in helping them improve on their next console (if there is going to be another one).

hear hear!
btw. it's only 1Day 10 hours and 32 Minutes left in Germany so just 34.5 hours!!!!
KI classic only comes with the Ultra edition
Fair point, but this is launch lol. There have always been problems and grievances at this point. I'm sure they be solving the issues over the next few weeks/months.
Not in here, this is hypeland, don't try to derail this train. choo choo

Does it show up in the search results ?
no, Killer Instinct, Killer Instinct Ultra edition add on , and Killer Instinct combo edition add on show up in search. Uk here Killer instinct arcade only comes with the ultra edition and is not available on its own so I would imagine that why it doesn't show up on it's own

You can upgrade but the day one live gold does only come with 1 character, not the 20$ game

All these mainstream sites look at game consoles differently than we do. The Xbox One is not a pure gaming console like the PS4 is so it's not surprising that they prefer the Xbox One. Microsoft chose a different route than Sony.
I think and I could be wrong that it comes as a code to add rather than actually logging day one. So that wouldn't work but I could be wrong it's happened before many times

So the only difference between the standard edition and Day One is this?
It looks like I can get Forza 5 code free with the standard edition at GAME so if the only thing I'm missing out on is the other 3 things listed I'm not that bothered unless I've missed something?
- Day One Achievement
- Day One Controller
- Fancy Black Packaging
- Free FIFA 14/Forza for Europe

Seems like OneGuide is available in Germany at launch.
http://support.xbox.com/de-DE/xbox-one/live-tv/watch-tv-with-oneguide
That page is also available for the UK and we know that one won't be available for launch (unless something changed).

Thanks for the information. I only made the decision to get an X1 a few days ago, so I hadn't been following the news much at all. I guess I'm in for the Ultra edition!
Course they have to be exposed, I'm buying one I want it working and every advertise feature working as they have it will but there is a difference in saying there is a problem and discussing when will it be fixed pressure on ms etc to fix it and posting a problem in a ha ha start another bashing thread. But don't want to move the discussion offtopic so will say no more
It could be because you can have app channels in the guide as well so while the tv channels may not be supported yet the app channels will

So I've been messing with my Xbone controller since yesterday. Feels great in my hands except something is off about the sticks. They feel really loose. So I did a simple comparison...
Not only are the stinks looser then the DS4 but its looser then the DS3. While sure I haven't played a game with it I gotta say I hated how loose the DS3 sticks where.

^^Interesting....I wasn't a huge fan of the loose DS3 sticks myself.

OTOH you certainly have more grip with the Xbone's controller.
So true

You think? I get a much better grip on my DS4 then Xbone gamepad
I don't consider highlighting issue with Xbone (and yes, there are many) to be "trolling". If you want an Xbox hugbox, GAF is certainly the wrong place for it.
It was in Microsoft's power to produce a better console experience, it's not my problem they failed at it.
Worthless mainstream reviews ignoring most legitimate issues highlighted on the more technical sites: Seems pretty desperate to cling to these works.
Figuring out whether MS will fix a problem (most of them can't be fixed anyways, lack of encoding hardware or GPU performance, controller ergonomics for example) is not our job.
is it already gone? i had the option to pre order and i kept clicking but kept getting the error page. now the option is gone
I look at it like this, both these new systems are evolving platforms now and its to be expected if certain things aren't ready for launch. Both the PS4 and X1 are missing features at launch but the Xbox One has so many more things it is trying to do so it definitely looks like its missing its target more at launch. In reality it will still launch with more options than the PS4 and it should for the price difference. As long as the hardware itself is solid, xbox live is working properly and the games that I buy are solid I know, as a rational adult, the other things will come and more than likely be great additions. I didn't complain last week when I bought my PS4 that it didn't have a suspend/resume option or its missing basic simple things that i'm used to on my 360. I know these platforms will continue to evolve and the competition between the 2 can only benefit us, the consumer. Its just sad though seeing so many people picking every little thing apart so it makes their platform of choice look better but in reality look completely clueless when they totally forget, by choice, something their console is missing or doesn't even have even though the other console does. Crazy times at launch I guess
There is no universal standard for this type of operation that is implemented universally: They'll just blast out channel numbers according to the provider and cable box you've selected while setting up. That's why this stuff is so prone to error and, ultimately, not all that useful.
There's no way to know at this point in time whether your setup will be supported.

I haven't used a DS4 but i meant in comparison to the DS3 where the nubs and loose sticks were a disaster for accuracy, IMO.
Nancy Tellem gave an interview recently about her plans for TV. Link is below.

She hints she has a sizeable budget, one that's big enough to create a series on par with GOT.

I don't want a hug box for either console, some balanced posting would be good but your a bit rich with your post history we don't want to know what your job is ,the drum you have been banging for a while

To people worried about the naff looking FIFA14 on the Day One Xbox One boxes, it's a removable sleeve that goes over the regular box.

Of course not. There's no reason to, the media features don't seem to be unique (much better served with PS4 or Roku; HDMI in degrades picture and sound quality) and the lack of hardware power and refinement means I'd have to buy a system for very few exclusives.
Except Sony did produce a better console experience - at a cheaper price.
