**XBOX ONE** Official Thread

I get the feeling, come release and games being played on both consoles, the 1080p vs 720p argument will become moot as I'll bet mostly we can't tell the difference.

Yes some people, and good luck to them as it's their choice, will not want an XBox One because of this and will probably never admit there's little noticeable difference. Me, I intend to have them both.

If I watch a film or TV program in 720p on my TV and then watch a 1080p version I can see little difference if any at all.

When I had my old 360, RIP, and now my PS3 I never once thought "you know what, I really fancy the camera tracking thingamajig" but the XBox One version certainly has tickled my fancy. The content of that video up ↑ that way somewhere has really made me take notice of it. I'm now thinking what will it be like in a few years?

I will say Microsoft have shot themselves in the foot a little as I was just thinking about my PC. It's 3 years old this xmas, all parts bar one thing bought from OcUK, and today I've been playing the new Batman game in 1080p with no issues so really couldn't Microsoft have done a little better now? Saying that as they wanted to include Kinect they obviously made a choice and, if I'm honest, I'd still buy the Kinect version if it was optional.

Someone else said they don't have brand loyalty and I'm the same, except maybe for Kawasaki as most of my bikes have been there's, so if Apple bought out a superb system with loads of games for a price I was prepared to pay then I'd buy it. Same for Google. Same for Alan Smith from 13 Acacia Avenue. I don't care who you are.

There has been a lot of heated debate in here so how about we all focus on a common enemy, if Amstrad made a console now do you think it'd be any good going by their product history?

Peace out mother ****ers.
 
Then there's something wrong with you, anyone who says they can't tell the difference between a sky movie at 720p and a bluray at 1080p doesn't deserve to own a HDTV.

Just like I ignore people who say they can't tell the difference between DVD and HD.
 
Im guessing that image is due to people thinking the XO can only do 720p, which we know is wrong, as forza is running at 1080p60.

It's just abit of PR damage control over the whole thing
 
I have not been following this console launch like others even though having both of them, can I ask why are people defecting over to PS4, just facts please don't want to start a debate.

I remember seeing about the head tracking thing in GT5, where your head movement would cause you to look in that direction in game, so you could see around you and see between corners better.

Never bothered picking up the camera as that is all i'd use it for, but in theory, would be very useful :)
 
Red and White is right... I mean the great exclusives on the Xbox are there because the Xbox is a powerful console..... Not because MS went put and purchased the exclusivity. Pft.
 
50% or there abouts power advantage.

£75 cheaper.

Is there anything else that needs to be said.

The fact that both consoles have bad points, such as the PS4 having no DLNA despite the PS3 having it, as well as no exclusives that remotely interest me? But even with the extra power, it didn't exactly blow the XO away on the BF4 video's, if not the complete opposite.

This plus better exclusives, ps+ (my main reason) and reports say Sony have finally learned how to make a pad that's not an absolute turd.

But still managed to put the analog stick in the wrong place? You can say what you wish about your favourite exclusives, but they all depend on what you want, which for me are none that appear on a PS4 now that Metal Gear appears on both.

Now, remove of the PS4 speak in here! :)
 
Moving on from the troll-ness of this thread...
I just got an email from Game stating "Due to the epic size of Xbox One" they'll be charging my account early but does anyone actually know which date they'll be taking the payment?

When I spoke to them yesterday they said it would be from the 12 th onwards, but it wouldn't surprise me if they take it earlier.
