That's what you get when your dealing with a company that is an expert in software and their history is with software. Others.... not so much.
and that's fine. But this is not IGN and I cannot remember the last time I saw something like this reviewed and just seems odd.
I know it is tied to halo but reviewing this and giving it a score just seems odd. Cut-scenes next?
Even the percentages they list for the consoles practically preach that twice the install base size has right around twice the amount of more games sold than the console with half the install base.
It's not hard math
Gotcha beat - I've been on xbox live since first round of beta testers on original xbox :)
I can send out an invite also if someone needs one.
Considering I don't care about half those benefits and if the xbox network had 'xbox share' I probably would not use it anyway, I would prefer a rock solid network.
I highly doubt, since day one you have never suffered during an online game and if that truly is the case you must have just signed up 5 minutes ago.
The only problem is if you have already played these games then your in it for more trophies or achievements for the most part.
There is absolutely nothing different between the Xbox one version and the Xbox 360 version. I figured there would be so I rented it from gamefly but it's just the same only I'm playing it in my back living room instead of my front living room because that's where the XB1 is stationed :)
I am just stoked that you can pick an achievement and it will drop you near the start of trying to accomplish it.
This entire package is just mind blowing for the price regardless how many times you may have played the various games.
I actually totally forgot about forge - damm!!
@ManiacMansion I cannot tell if you meant Microsofts updates work great or work bad but if your implying there are always issues with xbox live updates. I think not. at least not to the extent seen here.
I never personally have issues getting xbox live updates and it's always very quick. Actually now on the xbox one, it's already done before i wake up or before I get home but either way the update is always done while my console is off.
(I do still ha...
Yeah you think ALL 80 MILLION PSN USERS are connected at the same time??? Excuse after Excuse for a shoddy network ran by shoddy people.
And everyone laughed because you had to pay for xbox live. Look how it compares to Sonys attempt.
That is one freaking slick interface!!!! What great options to give a gamer. Unreal.
I cannot edit my post so I will correct it here, I believe I was getting background colors mixed up with the tile colors that you could always change.
Always had a choice of colored backgrounds, at least I have.
I agree though, I picked from several backgrounds and the only place I saw it actually appear was in the main tile on the home page, the actual screen behind it always seemed to be just 'black'
wonder if I am doing something wrong here. I will use media app tonight to snapshot a completely bright picture say, sunset overdrive and try and see if that makes a difference.
i think tomorrow I am going to bust it out, I still have a bunch of original xbox games, i might have to fire up the original ghost recon and remember what games used to be like with the gritty greys and the falling rain - still one of the best ghost recons ever
Sweet will check out the features tonight right after I'm done mowing :)
Wonder if mine still works, been under the stairs for years now
you know though there are still great past and present games for the 360 with or without the deals with gold.
I find most of the deals with gold either don't interest me or I have already played them. But, I have a ton in MS points waiting for things like Halo on the XB1 etc so maybe that's a good thing that I don't spend it yet
Maybe before complaining you should realize what your complaining about. This has nothing to do with the 2 free games they give away each month that compares to Sonys PS+ this is just the new weekly discounts on add-ons and games
I like the humor in the fact its a guy working for naughty dog thats exclusive to Sony but the controller they use is an xbox controller lol
