So the guy doesn't have his contact info up to date and it's microsoft's fault, right?
The charge is something we've read about before, I'm sure it's a deal where you get charged if you don't return the defective unit within so many days of receiving the replacement.
Which wouldn't have happened, because whoever was living in his old house was just like "hey, free xbox!".
Why is this a "news&qu...
To each their own.
I thought Half Life was garbage.
I'd take any of today's "mediocre games" over Half Life any day.
I just never "got" what was special about Half Life.
Your parents bought you GTA San Andreas when you were 8 years old?
That makes me sad.
You guys are all dreaming. Kinect is not going anywhere. They'd be stupid to separate it now. Too much time and money invested in it to make it an option. It is part of the console, period.
The first "remodel" of the XB1 with something removed will have no disc drive. Downloadable games/apps and TV features only.
Heck, I would have bought that version at launch if it had been an option (for both consoles), I'm going to be all digital thi...
Yes that article is positive about the XB1 so of course everyone here thinks it is bogus.
You people.... Wow.
He clearly says the city can be more dynamic on the XB1. Dream all you want about him meaning something else, but you are incorrect.
Yeah you would think by now they could at least catch up to the quality of XBL on the original Xbox 10 years ago, but sadly that remains far beyond Sony's grasp.
I can hardly believe how unreliable it is.
Yeah it's ridiculous. They just go out and find any tidbit of negative MS "news" and spin it into an "article".
They really should be banned from submitting this garbage.
I'm glad somebody gets it.
GameStop doesn't have a horse in this race, they want both consoles to do well so they can sell a lot of games and make a lot of money.
So all the money they spent designing a better controller was wasted because 5 people on the support forums got a bad one?
Unfortunately, nothing has a 100% success rate. There are always a few failures. How many stories have we seen about PS4 controllers having problems with their analog sticks falling apart?
Does that mean it's a failure, or a waste of money?
No, it just means that some of them have a manufacturing defect.
...
What exactly is "Sad" about a store trying to sell a product??
What is wrong with you people?
I was about to comment on that as well.
Another junk article from spawnfirst and Maria.
Why are these getting approved??
Agreed. Stuff like this makes gamers look like stereotypical raging nerds.
You know, like the nerdy guy in a hundred different movies or tv shows that gets all pissed because somebody confuses Star Trek with Star Wars.
That's what we look like when we make a big deal out of something like this.
God we are getting old. lol
Yeah that light on the controller is a big annoyance.
I sit slightly off center of my TV so I can't see it reflecting, but it does still light up my lap as thought I am trying to help somebody find their way to my crotch.
Come to think of it, maybe it's not so bad after all. lol
Yeah it's definitely not for me, but I'm sure some people would want to do it.
Keep in mind the overwhelming majority of people on this site were not impressed with the looks of either console when they were revealed.
Some people may prefer a gaudy looking multicolored box under their TV. lol
I was 30 when the PS3 hit.
You aren't going to get any sympathy from me. lol
Yeah don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the PS4, I'm stoked to get my hands on infamous next year.
The console just doesn't feel like anything "new" to me, is all I was trying to say. Not sure how else to explain it.
Agreed and Well Said, Sir.
Agreed on all counts.
The funny thing is, I know that the PS4 is a more powerful console in terms of graphics, but using it doesn't feel like anything new to me. It's just a "better PS3". And there is nothing wrong with that, I'm just saying that is how it seems to me.
By comparison, using the XB1 feels like a whole new experience. Everything I do on it, even the simple stuff navigating the dashboard, I keep thinking "I couldn...
I was just about to ask the same thing. I thought this hadn't been announced for a US release yet.
I hope it comes out here, I'd like to try it, even though I am VERY skeptical of the F2P model.
