**XBOX ONE** Official Thread

The only way I'd want a ps4 alongside my xone at this point is if multi platform titles that are not available for pc are better on it. So far I got BF4 Ghosts AC4 and need for speed rivals running on a pair of overclocked 780s so the ps4 is a dumb choice. However I cannot get that Forza experience or dead rising 3 for pc so I'm all over that xbox one. Titanfall will be a pc game for me though.
 
I actually cancelled my XB1 pre-order yesterday, just going with PS4 at launch. 1 of the reasons I won't disclose as there has been enough arguments in here and I don't to start another but the other 2 reasons basically are, I have seven friends getting a PS4 at launch and only one getting an XB1.

Second reason is the two games that really lured me toward the XB1 were Titanfall and Killer Instinct, Titanfall isn't out until March I think next year and Killer Instinct is only launching with 7 characters with more being added in the coming months. So makes sense for me to save my money now and just get it in March with Titanfall and hopefully more characters will be added to Killer Instinct by then.

If they could have had Titanfall at launch they would have won the console war I think (at the beginning anyway)!
 
I paid off my console and games from ShopTo last night as they start processing orders this weekend, and I'd rather know payment went through successfully instead of letting them do it.
 
Just got an email from Game asking to pay the remaining balance (after the £20 deposit). Not far off now...

I noticed all my pre-orders had the correct price but nothing has been charged. I spoke to them and they said they will take payments on the week of release. I want it all to go through so I can get Lego Marvel and a charge station using my points.

I paid the deposit via PayPal so they are asking for me to pay the balance through it too. Maybe the process is different for those orders.
 
Word of warning for anyone in the same boat. I got a server error after paying when it returned to the Game website and it seems like it hasn't fully worked. So I'd resist paying for the time being until they sort it.
 
I thought this was the underwhelmed thread. It's not, but this probably deserves to be posted here too anyway.

 
Got a call from the local game store near where i live, placed a pre-order back in sept iirc. But im going in next tues for a bit of a walkthrough with the xbox one ie showing me whats what and how it all works etc. Not really that interested but thought i might as well go and see what its all about. Will probably take my xbox360 and my other bits and bobs that i have and get it exchanged for some credit then pay off the remaining balance.

Not really using my 360 at the moment, ive more or less finished off GTA 5 now so will also take that in for an exchange. Looking at prices and comparing it to the credit i already have, i wont be paying more than £300 for COD ghosts, Forza 5 and an extra controller as well. Not long to go before its out, nov 20th from what the guy was telling me.

Not sure if mentioned but apparently the cloud servers need updating frequently and can cause the servers to reboot, kicking you out of your multiplayer session (for those games that use it).

Seems a little weird !
