My local one was selling X1s at exactly the same price without kinect as they were with Kinect the week before. So it just means the full package was more expensive.
I didn't think CEX sold new items as its an exchange store.
The only reviews I ever take seriously are those that are written atleast a week after release.
Most games you cannot judge fairly at first. For example, day one Titanfall was 10/10 for me. A week later, no desire to come back and it had dropped to a 6/10.
See people we should stop taking sides and urge both sides to keep up the good work, without competition neither company would need to push great deals like this.
Ofcourse its just a business strategy, to them gaming is a business. Happy gamers = more money. Nothing to moan about!
I only own a PS4 and these games are certainly not for me. However I don't mind the free games being indie as by the time AAA titles are on Plus, chances are Ive already got them.
IM sure even Pong managed to offend someone. People are far too sensitive these days, its impacting music, film, books, freedom of speech, comedy as well as video games.
I know in in the minority, and that's cool, but I think this game looks awesome.
What? It doesn't? Ive been holding my smartphone out toward people all day hoping to unlock some music tracks or maybe intercept text messages...damn...
He should play the game for ten mins, realise how stupid he is and then never show his face in public again.
I rarely buy games unless I happen to have built up amazon vouchers.
Theyre too expensive. I will buy a game if I think the multiplayer will be long lasting, or if all mu friends are getting it so I can join in.
Otherwise, I just rent from Boomerang Rentals. Used them for years and saved me an absolute fortune.
That's what Im thinking, its like if you down load a movie before release its often of much poorer quality.
The social features on Xbox One are great, except for the mess Party's were in for the first few months. God knows how they messed that up lol.
This is handy, although I don't know who half my "friends" are anyway lol.
I have a PS4 and love it so don't take this point as a bash against it, but... I don't think people buy a console because of power.
Lets say, X1 had the best exclusives and loads of them and PS4'had a couple of half assed ones. Do you still think people would buy it because it was more powerful?
PS2 was the least powerful of its generation and it dominated.
I know that isn't the case right now, Im just saying power alone doesn't sell consoles.
Looks great, good to see some exclusive titles for X1, my X1 isn't getting much love at the minute.
CEX in England are sellng the Xbox One (kinectless) for the same price they were selling it with Kinect a couple of weeks back.
So the customer pays the same and gets less, they have to pay extra for the Kinect now.
It happens to most games, its why I avoid hype now. Nothing ever lives up to the hype created by the internet.
It smashes my expectations, as I avoided the hype train.
I don't understand why anyone would want a Kinectless X1.
But, I think the voice commands work with the headset too. Not sure how well it all functions with a controller, never tried. Maybe headset is a good option?
Cool, and no doubt we will be able to share them on upload or something.
That's what annoys me with PS4, I can only send my stuff to friends or Facebook..there is no app for sharing and browsing others screenshots/videos.
Well if it had only one exclusive in 2014, that would be poor as hell.
Exactly. Once the Kinect-less Xbox One comes out, and stores start stocking the Kinect on its own, these pre-owned prices will go up.
The only point of buying one of these is if you haven't got an X1 yet and waiting for the kinectless version as an attempt at saving money..
Times were far simpler back then.
Some of the best features we have now are because of competition. Trophys, party's on Playstation, Games with Gold, Playstation Plus..
all of those were spurred on my competition. If you're happy with your NES, go play that.
You just sound like a typical Sony fanboy.
As for your other comment below, MS aren't robbing. Xbox Live gold is a service and should be paid for same as any other service. Before PSN ...
