So question for those who are lucky enough to go with Xbox One+PS4 with camera... How are you setting it up? I'm kind of in a unique position because my PS4 camera HAS to be on top of the TV so I'm trying to figure out where to fit Kinect in. Bottom of TV is no go because it's got a bulky stand(from '07) :/

 

[xxracerxx]

I wish XBO had actual streaming right now, would love to watch you guys play something.

 

[Cloudy]

What sort of setup do you have? Ideally waist high is the consensus, but between 0.6m and 1.8m is optimal. If you have an entertainment unit, stick it there if it's high enough

XB1 is in the ps3's spot now. On top of the front speaker?

 

[ChosenPredator]

My wallet hurts just watching.

But that has to be one Orgasmic unboxing.

My man. I got all those at launch. And I'm happy I did.

definitely happy with all three can't complain about anything as of yet im fortunate all my day one systems are working (knock on wood) still need to hook my xbox one up though so who knows..and yeah the wallet is hurting viciously at the moment lol

Yes. Obviously only the Jago ones until they switch characters.

Are you sure? I just did 5 dojo lessons and no achievement.

 

[dejay]

I just sat with my neighbor while he set up his new One. That controller is fucking godly. The 360 king is dead, long live the new Xbox One controller King. Looking forward to trying out his system more tomorrow when he's got it fully set up.

Yeah - I'm sitting here with a One controller on one side and the 360 controller on the other side. The 360 controller looks like a lunking mess now, whereas yesterday it was the nicest controller I've ever owned.

I got my PS4 camera on top and my Kinect will be under since I've got the TV sitting on a good stand. I don't know how to help you. But, yeah, that's what I'm doing. Is your TV wide enough to mount you Kinect on top next to the PS4 camera?

On giant bomb's quicklook they said it didn't seem like it gave achievements on the free version.

 

[RomanticHeroX]

Impulse purchase'd one from the Microsoft Store, where they're currently in stock. Look for a post in the Buy/Sell thread soon, while I try to figure out how I'm gonna afford this.

Holy smokes. Some haul.

 

[sangreal]

one of the launch streams said you get no achievements using free characters

 

[DopeyFish]

man the voice control for me seems to be flawless for everything but "Xbox Off" lol

 

[Chairhome]

So excited. It's installing dead rising now.

 

[Iced_Eagle]

hm, I must be wrong. I ended up buying ultra 5 minutes after playing anyways. Game is awesome.

 

[The Flash]

30 minutes is too long on that screen. I'd suggest turning it off and on again, but I'm reckless.

I was stuck on another screen for too long, rebooted and it was fine.

Yeah I've been stuck there for over 30 minutes now. You think that's what I should do? Turn it off with the power button or unplug it?

 

[MXRider]

On giant bomb's quicklook they said it didn't seem like it gave achievements on the free version.

That sucks. So if I buy one character I get achievements?

 

[RoKKeR]

Does Battlefield 4 work?

 

[Eclectic Jabber Monkey]

Is GT OK to link here? They have a game montage up with some new gif-able stuff. The Quantum Break stuff was cool. Was that two people playing Sunset Overdrive? Co-op please!

Sad that much of footage was recycled from E3 though.

That music playing the same verse over and over is rather grating by the end...

 

[Wishmaster92]

Did you reboot it yet flash? Or are you going to wait a little longer?

 

[Iced_Eagle]

Its "Xbox Turn Off"

 

[SomewhatGroovy]

Just pulled out controller. Squeeky shoulder buttons.

Nice

 

[TriGen]

I wouldn't unplug it.

 

[kinggroin]

How do I sync my controller?

It just blinks over and over again. Lol, can't make it past the first step!

 

[U2NUMB]

Update downloading...

Odd start with that long green screen and pulsing controller.. mine took some work to get synced.

But all seems good now, update is going very fast.

 

[SeaOfMadness]

man the voice control for me seems to be flawless for everything but "Xbox Off" lol

that's because you need to say "Xbox turn off"

 

[jbug617]

It just blinks over and over again. Oil, can't make it past the first step!

there should be a button on the side of the console to sync your controller.

oh bloody hell

Are you pushing the sync button on the console as well? Its on the side next to the blue ray drive

That still doesn't look high enough, but if you don't want it for body motion straight away, stick it anywhere.

Actually that might be high enough - can you lift up the TV at all so that the Kinect doesn't block it? It probably will still work - you can tilt it up.

Failing that, there's something like this: http://www.instructables.com/id/3-DIY-Kinect-TV-Mount/

I know people have made similar stands with jewel CD cases (there was one in this thread a while back). For my old Kinect, when I had a setup like yours, I got some sheet metal similar to the one in my first link and drilled holes in it and bolted it to the TV using the holes the TV attached to a wall mount bracket with.

For now though, just stick it wherever and don't worry about motion tracking until you come up with a plan.

 

[The Flash]

I don't know what to do now. When I first set it up I noticed that I was stuck at the green screen for a while and then unplugged it because the power button wasn't working. I unplugged my Ethernet chord and then tried again. Got back to the loading screen and after a few minutes the screen wacked out all white noise like and then went black. I turned it off a minute or two after that and then turned it back on. I have been at the green screen for 40 minutes now with nothing happening.

 

[Cynn]

So excited. It's installing dead rising now.

Xbox One with one of the two best launch games and no shit titles. Supporting the WII U... If you had a Vita game in there I'd elect you for gamer of the year.

Does the power button work? I heard someone had issues and then they tried it without the Kinect hooked up and it went through ok. Perhaps try that.

Thanks

Worse visual instructions ever

 

[MThanded]

oh bloody hell

They need to make the voice stuff more fluid.

 

[Raven77]

Reporting in from Wal Mart, yes I made it out alive after only 90 minutes of wandering around Tue sir to get my games and system.

They had many XB1's left over, non pre orders.

Have you thought about making a twitch stream about your attempts to repair it. I heard they can entertain people for hours and hours.

I'll give the power button a shot. I'll try it with Kinect in first.

You're the new Hi11zones.

 

[jbug617]

according to Shipwreck the green screen stays for a little while then it comes on to update

@Shipwreck: When you first turn on your Xbox One it shows a green Xbox One screen for long enough to make you think "Noooooooo!!!!". But it's fine.

 

[MrOogieBoogie]

Just got back from the Xbox One launch party in NYC.

Had no idea the launch was tonight, but a friend calls me up and invites me to it (VIP pass) randomly at 10pm, and I thought, "Why the hell not?"

Made it just in time for Mackelmore, who was pretty good (not his biggest fan, but he's very entertaining nonetheless). Didn't play any of the games, but it was a cool event.

Honestly, the biggest highlight for me was seeing Geoff Keighley in person. During the commercial break just before the countdown to midnight he was being kind of a dick to all the Microsoft reps. It was obvious to me because I know he's a Sony fanboy, but man did he look awkward and annoyed on stage for a while there.

I'm not really sure. It's a 50" TV...

Might just have to jury rig it have tape the PS4 camera on top of the Kinect. Though I wonder if that would cause overheating issues...

 

[Dead]

God help me, I actually set up the kinect.

update going pretty fast. Nice.

officially retired my 360. No more space.

Once I get a new entertainment center and a new power center I will have enough space for it again.

 

[Klocker]

I thought kinect synced controllers automatically?

You should point the cameras at each other and wait for inception.

There are vents on top of the Kinect and mine's fairly warm at the moment. I wouldn't block it.

lol, it had me worried for a moment

 

[leng jai]

So does the Xbone controller work out of the box on PC and is it compatible with the wireless dongle used for the 360 one?

 

[Vee_One]

Any impressions of Battlefield or CoD yet? Is battlefield still broken for all?
