Probably been posted before in here but I just really love the white controller.

That's so awesome.
 
1. I hope Larry goes on a nice vacation post launch, he deserves it really.
2. This is the greatest 7 days in gaming history.
3. I hope BF is ready to go at launch server wise.

Trying to find this out - With XB1's out there live now, has anyone confirmed if BF4 is working? Any streams of people playing?

Virtual high five for a RAD wifey. Don't think mine would do that.
 
Does anyone know if the "Emergency Offline Update" feature can be used for the day 1 update? If so, it might be useful for people that have slow internet connections (or none at all) on release day?

http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/system/emergency-offline-update

Emergency Offline Update (EOU)

The Emergency Offline Update (EOU) can be used to perform a system update to a console that’s having trouble downloading the system update from Xbox Live. To perform the EOU, you’ll need:

A USB flash drive formatted as NTFS with a minimum 2 gigabytes (GB) of space
A PC with an Internet connection and a USB port.
 
Anyone with Amazon Prime + One day shipping have theirs shipped yet?

"Not yet shipped"

EDIT: Oops, I actually have 2-day shipping, not one day. That's what I always use for release date delivery, and my shipments tend to ship the day before and only spend ~24 hours in transit, despite the "2 day shipping" method. it's estimating a Friday delivery.

fired zero bullets in the orphanage.
2 day, I'm prime and it's not yet shipped still.

Also, my TV is pretty much loaded up so I was thinking of picking up an HDMI splitter. Do those add input lag or anything? Haven't used any before.

Very minimal if its got its own power supply.

I used to stream mw2 on justin.tv that way and never had any issues with lag.
 
Have no problem with anyone's personal taste, people shouldn't have to justify their purchase to anyone. What I took issue with is him saying PS4 is for gamers and XB1 is for entertainment lovers, when XB1 is arguably providing a better experience for gamers.



Why would I be mad when it's delivering games I want to play vs the competition. MS has more games for launch, and for 2014 (revealed) thus yes, the line up is better. And it's always personal taste which you prefer, said that before. Not pissing on anyone either, go and reread my posts if you need to.

To you it's better, and you keep stating it as fact. Me thinks you don't like the "competition"

It's because of the competition I have all these games to play, so no, I love the competition ;)

It's my opinion the line up is better, others have theirs, nearly everything posted on the net is opinion.

I'm saying on paper, the breadth and amount of games (notable titles) coming to Xbox One is better. That can totally change next year when Sony announce their full line up. But as of now all we have is Order, inFamous, Driveclub and maybe Uncharted 4 (is it 2013?)
