I honestly never see the point of "unboxing" videos. Unless it's like a Kinder Egg and every box is slightly different, I already know what's in the box. I don't need to see a video of someone taking stuff out of the box. The only time it's interesting is if the unboxing reveals something we didn't know before (like Major Nelson's unboxing revealing the chat headset).

I like the hairy guy KevinWK - he's entertaining unboxing special editions.
On another note, Ive cancelled my xbone pre order, ordered watchdogs for the pc for that week instead (although im sure Ill pick one up at some point).

That's a pretty smooth transition from dashboard to game. At least they are putting that 10% GPU reserve to good use
Aye, can't argue with how smooth that looks. I also like the fact you can suspend games to memory and return to the dash to do things. I've always hated having to quit my game just because I want to return to the dash to start a download or something. At least now, with the way it appears to work, I can be in and out of the game in seconds.

Ditto, I thought and mentioned the same in Eurogamer thread too. What a shame and they've invested millions on redesigning the thing.
Interested in what way you feel its too small? From what I've seen isn't it pretty much the same size as the 360 controller?
At the end of the day it's all going to be down to personal preference - I've heard some stellar reviews about the new controller (many praise the trigger feedback, for one), and I've heard some call it an abomination. Will probably have to wait and see until we can use them ourselves and make up our own minds
no. A 360 play and charge kit still sends the signal wirelessly which won't work. Unsure about wired though.
You would hope the wired works, why have a game like forza coming out and not let the driving fans that bought a MS wheel carry on using it wired. Seems a weird thing to do if it doesn't work.
I can understand the change in wireless tech but it will be really disappointing if you end up preferring the 360 pad and cannot continue to use it.

I think Kreeeeee mentioned to me in the Forza thread something about the X360 license being hacked to make third party accessories that werent licensed via MS and so MS have changed that again for the XO and the main reason why no X360 accessory will work on the XO - presume that includes the XO controller. I definitely know that no wheels will work on the XO...
Ill find the quote...

The 360 encryption for the controllers has been broken so anyone can make peripherals without MS getting a cut.Think that rings a bell, though doesnt explain why the F4 wheel and MSs own one cant work.
