These articles drive me nuts who would rather have a fragmented experience rather than the whole experience. Who wants an under specd PS4 clone if you don't want the X1 because of the mandatory Kinect then the asnwer is simple buy the PS4, a Wii U or go PC.

The Kinect 2.0 is NOT Kinect 1.0 it is not all about flappy, flappy wave your hands in the air like you just don't care, its not screaming at the TV like a crazed mad man or woman. Its definitely not a gimmick th...

The gameplay demo that has been shown at E3, ComicCon and PAX Australia is an alpha version and is not a TRUE representation of the final build of the game.

This is what a developer had to say about Ryse at ComicCon in respect of the gameplay demo:

"A lot of the design elements and balancing weren’t even in there yet."

"We have to shrink things down. Get very straight forward, very easy, to get people into it."

In respect of Kinect 2.0 (which remember is 10x more powerful than Kinect 1.0)

It comes with a new microphone, an advanced ray microphone supported by a multi-channel echo cancellation algorithm which allows the Xbox to zero in on speakers, dialing down the volume of nearby sounds in order to hear you clearly (it can also work out who's talking by looking for open mouths). The effects are "kind of like when you're at a cocktail party and you listen to someone'...

In NZ if I took the cost of the games off and just look at the hardware I would be lucky to get a low specd PC even if custom built.

A mid range PC in NZ would set you back approximately $1,500 NZ so no in my country console is the best way to go if you just want to play games

Plus I have four kids that I game with when not playing online MP or kicking back playing some SP. I love hanging with my kids and just playing some local MP on splitscreen. Can'...

In NZ I paid $749.00 for the X1

2 games (Dead Rising 3 and Ryse) @ $109.00 NZ ($218.00)
1 controller recharge combo $109.00 NZ
1 Recharge kit $35.00 NZ

TOTAL = $1,111.00 NZ

Then I am adding Titanfall ($109.00) and Killer Instinct (price not confirmed)

All up I budgeted to spend $1,500.00 NZ and that was when I thought the X1 would release at around the $900.00 NZ mark so I was stoked when I found it was going...

"But don't throw a fit simply because other people are seeing the loose threads in the knitting."

Yeah like SONY dropping from 7GB of RAM for Games to 4.5GB or 5.5GB with 1 GB of flexible RAM OUUUUUCCCHHHH!!!!

You mad bro, because Ryse like 10 times better than KZ or SS and is a new IP exclusive to the X1 not a quadruquel like KZ.

"Ryse: Son of Rome can be played either with the motion sensor device or through what appears to be an endless chain of Quick-Time Events (QTE’s.)"

Is the author serious????

Ummm Kinect 2.0 is a companion device, you cannot play the whole game with Kinect 2.0

You dont plan on having an hour long conference at Gamescon (something that MS have never done before I might add) Just to reveal that you are now going to let indies self publish.

YES it would have been one of their BIG reveals without a doubt. Though I have a strong feeling that they still have a lot of things up their sleeve for them to reveal, especially as we are pretty much at crunch time now.

Now I am expecting to see a lot of disagrees. Yet until Gam...

Remember a lot of people have stated online that they are going digital this time around. Especially since both are available same day.

So at this stage these figures only account for intent to buy a physical copy. I don't know could end up meaning nothing who knows

(PUBLISHER'S UPDATE: Microsoft's new Xbox One Kinect sensor was created entirely in-house and did not use PrimeSense technology. Therefore, the Redmond-based company would not need to pay royalties or licensing to any entity based on sales of the Xbox One Kinect hardware.]

If it was coming to a next gen console maybe but since I am pretty certain it isn't then sorry dude I am going to have to pass.

The author should have renamed the article "My most anticipated games of 2013"

My own would be

Ryse
Forza 5
Killer Instinct
Project Spark
Dead Rising 3
Watchdogs

Maybe Battlefield 4 or COD Ghost

where the author gets off thinking everybody else thinks the same, or that their list is the definitive list of most anticipated games due out this year is beyond me.

@ S8anicslayer ummmm I thought he (allformats) was placing more praise on SONY wasn't he or did I just miss something with his PS4 wins, Ultra, Ultra, Ultra!!!!

I am with Gamer666 I had the original 20GB X360 since launch never encountered an RROD ever. Once I almost spat the dummy thinking it had, just to find it was a faulty power brick, The retailer I purchased it from replaced it free and I never had any problems at all. Two years ago I upgraded to a 250GB X360s and passed the other onto my nephew with which he still uses to this day (granted we upgraded the HDD to a 250GB one othewrwise it is still the same Xbox)

This is already a day one purchase along with Forza 5, Dead Rising 3 and Killer Instinct.

I'm psyched also for the colliseum multiplayer gladiator battles. Totally going to be epic!!!!

Are you serious do you think MS is the only one who stores information about any of us. What details did you have to have or submit to create a PSN Plus account, a YouTube account, a Google email account or any other subscription based account.

MS is not the only friggen one who has data on any of us NOR are they the only one who may or may not pass on your email address etc to third party businesses.

Some of you are seriously deluded if you think that only ...

The issue is that the circumstances you speak of can happen regardless of MS and in fact they happen right now......So no I don't need to do more research.

I just don't use blind prejudice to justify my stance towards a company, a product an ethnic group, someone's religion etc.

You do realise that countries use your birth certificate as a commodity to borrow money. We as the human race are a financial commodity that are sold and brought globally...

This question needs to be asked:

If the X1 suxs so much then why is it still news that it suxs why do we see duplicate articles from various websites all saying the same thing day in and day out. Though the moment a positive article appears it appears ONLY once?

I have also noticed some sites dont seem to run positive stories at all and will just upload X1 stories that are negative.

I mean by now it isn't really news worthy.

Day 1 must have then I will buy the whole roster and straight off the bat start tearing shit up with Spinal. This is one major reason to get an X1.

MS don't need to lower the price of the X1. They just need more games like K.I that no matter how much you tell yourself that you don't need it, in the end you just know you just got to have it.

Keep up the great work DH and remember DON'T SCREW IT UP!!!!
