Thats retarded. Amazon just released a $99 X1 replacement called the fire.

I think I'm aware of what active cameras there are in my home

x1, titanfall, 12 months live 450.

X1 has turned into a dreamcast 2.0. That puts real price under 400. Terrible for a system to drop like this in 6 months.

4/7/2014 3:14:34 PM

Damn that's a good deal.

4/7/2014 6:08:15 PM

Considering that a digital copy of a game and a year sub to X-Live is basically a no-cost to M$ I don't see where you're getting your Dreamcast comparison.

But, if you really think it's the end for the XBone then by all means go start posting in that thread for the rival system. I'm sure you'll have a rousing conversation with the owners in that thread...if you can find it.

4/7/2014 10:26:52 PM

To make it simple since you are dense.

XBL 12 Month is $60
Titanfall $60
Xbone Price ($500) now $450

They are throwing everything they got at trying to move systems. Even though Xbone has been selling good, there is a desperation behind these moves that has trouble written all over it. You can scream that a digital copy cost nothing all day, go look at the price of a digital copy in the Xbox Store ($60).

4/8/2014 3:39:03 PM

There really is no talking to you.

4/8/2014 3:50:30 PM

XBL 12 Month is $60 -> regularly on sale for $35-40
Titanfall $60 -> games regularly go on sale for $15-20 off very soon after release, sometimes even before with credit offers etc.
Xbone Price ($500) now $450 -> yay, good for consumers?

4/8/2014 5:08:51 PM

Lol you are comparing the cost of the digital copy to the publisher vs what it costs to the the customer. Two totally different things.

4/8/2014 10:52:57 PM

Do we need to take up a collection plate for Black Jesus? Never though the son of god would be such a miserable tightwad.

Alms for the poor! Alms for the poor!

Seriously, if you cant afford to blow $100 -$150 then maybe you should save your shekels and not play video games. Try macaroni and glue for some cheap fun. Then again, I am sure you would cry when Harris Teeter has a BOGO sale.

In June they start offering X1 at $399 without Kinect
Games With Gold is coming X1
You no longer need XBL Gold for Netflix/Hulu/etc (finally)

5/13/2014 3:11:42 PM

I'm confused by the pricing structure. Xbox 1 with kinect and game is 450, xbox 1 without kinect is 399....doesn't add up to me.

5/13/2014 3:40:40 PM

im happy about the netflix without gold since i was a big Xbox fan, but after 10 years of gold, I just didn't use it much anymore so had to drop it. Sucks that the device was relegated to dvd use only (and maybe an occasional game).

5/13/2014 5:14:34 PM

I wonder how long I'll keep gold now

5/13/2014 5:44:10 PM

I'd like to be the first to thank Microsoft for killing the kinect. Now that it is no longer bundled, developers have no incentive to try in integrate it into new games.

Microsoft needs to get out of gaming ASAP. They fucked up the Xbox One is so many ways, this console war was over at E3, all they are doing now is alienating early adopters.


yaddayadda prices come down etc, they reversed their stance on everything. Can't trust this company, its only a matter of time until Team Xecuter mods the X1 and all ways on internet, and DRM comes back.

5/13/2014 9:00:45 PM

does anyone else feel like sports games on x1 are different? fifa and nba 14 both seem like you have less control over the players on x1. maybe i'm just a bitch though.

5/13/2014 10:36:18 PM

I be selling xbone shit, yo:

Backward compatibility would be awesome. I'm nostalgic about playing ww2 COD.

5/15/2014 4:45:33 PM

^^^I agree. I don't seem to get the same workout when I play on X1 as opposed to playing sports games outside. I don't feel like I have as much control over the avatars as I do myself. It like a completely different cardio experience.

The only way to win the console war is not to play.

[Edited on May 21, 2014 at 4:52 PM. Reason : Join the PC master race!]

5/21/2014 4:23:00 PM

^ If only it wouldn't cost me 2k+ to join the master race and max all games. I have a gut feeling that console gaming is dead after this gen. Both consoles are mediocre at best.

5/21/2014 6:57:17 PM

the 360 came a long way from when it was first released. i think the xbone will do the same.

5/21/2014 7:11:44 PM

news to me that it would cost $2k+ to play everything on max

[Edited on May 21, 2014 at 7:25 PM. Reason : btw...medium settings on a PC look better than consoles]

5/21/2014 7:24:17 PM

Show me build specs for a PC that will MAX any current game, that cost < 2k to build.

5/22/2014 12:47:36 PM

oh don't start this stupid argument again

5/22/2014 1:02:34 PM

MAX in capital letters? I'm not so sure.

Besides, you're missing a lot of requirements here. MAX at what resolution? You could probably build a machine that could run Wolfenstein: The New Order with the highest graphics settings at 640x480 for 500 bucks.

Besides, I think you're setting the bar a little high when the xbone and ps4 can't even crank out 60fps at 1080p regularly with these games.

And this:

Quote :

"btw...medium settings on a PC look better than consoles"

i5-3570K - 229
gtx 770 - 350
asrock mobo - 130
8GB ram - 80
850W powersupply - 150
crucial 240GB ssd - 130

So you're at 1069 dollarbucks with all the major parts covered. Just need a case, KBM, and a monitor. I think you could find all that for less than 900 and still be under your 2k ceiling.

Fuck, you could bump the processor up (though that one overclocks) and graphics card up and still make it.

5/22/2014 1:03:23 PM

if the average person felt like fucking with all that, PC gaming would be at the forefront but we don't so lets just move on
