Usually when we have people over, we mostly play Just Dance version 6035305 - whatever the newest one is, for the Wii. Probably a bit better for the Kinect, but that's ok. It's a great party system, and I imagine the Xboner is a great party machine too. Sometimes if my brother is over, we'll load up Dark Souls and see how far we can get if we're absolutely hammered (usually continually dying on the first few bad guys). I wouldn't invite people over and say, load up Killzone and have a party. If I want to show off single player games like that usually it's just my brother over and he wants to check them out, otherwise we dust off the Wii and people seem to have a blast.

Yeah, really, let's not overreact just because everyone wants to bash the Xbone. It doesn't seem like it's any more pronounced than the Blod yet.

Sigh.

Scored a PS4 at Best Buy today, but didn't know the $100 gift card promo ended yesterday, so still I have an original 60GB PS3 and two Xbox 360s. Hope they do the $100 promo again.
I'm thinking you're probably out of luck. I used it for my launch 360 that doesn't even have HDMI and a ps3. 200 dollars for what would have normally been like 35. It was way to good of a deal.

Yeah that was a sick deal, wish I would've brought in my games to get their double trade-in value on those, but probably would've only been like an extra $25 anyway hah.

I used my $200 gift cards to pick up a shitty Dynex 60" TV for $549 so I can complain about input lag in the HDTV thread.

I guess the Kinect is not meant to be put directly on top of the XB1?
the kinect also has a fan.



Forza 5: The monetization is even worse than you think. - NeoGAF

Christ, anyone who buys that game is basically giving money to the devil himself.
I don't know what angers me more, that there's assholes out there who will still buy this game AND spend even more money on unlocking cars, or that these assholes can actually afford to do that because some other bunch of assholes gives them the money to do so in the first place.

If only you could be either rich or stupid on this world, everything would be so much better. Having people both rich and stupid is the ultimate downfall of our species.

Who in the right fuck is using ipv6 for some internet in the first place.
we accidentally started using IPv6 on some company VPNs and it fried our client configs. Go us!

takes a lot of energy to do that much spying.

And yeah, people shouldn't get too excited about those failed disk drives. It's always funny when hardware fails in a way that makes noise but a bad batch of disk drives is a very possible and common thing. It should also be pretty fixable by replacing what amounts to a cheap part.

I haven't noticed the Kinect get hot, but like how the piano black areas of each console let me stack shit on them like a controller dock and the Skylander portal.

Yeah, a few disk drives failing is no big deal. It's only an issue if another PS2 disc drive situation happens. Pretty much every single fat PS2 drive was going to fail at some point, it was just a matter of When and not If.

I don't remember if my fat PS2 drive ever failed. I think I actually got rid of the system when I got my PS3 because it would still play the games. Not 100% certain though. I picked that up launch day. Spent the night in front of Best Buy for it.

For the few of you that may stream on XBONE. Kinda rediculous if true. Could be random bugs and these guys just making a story. Maybe someone here has heard of or experienced this?
