It does, saying that in the nextgen screenshot thread. It's just grimy and flat.
It's not 1080p? I thought it would be... the scaler filter owuld only apply to those sub 1080p games, no?
It's 900p.
I want whatever is allowed by the mods
But a monthly recap thread or whatever would be cool though

Speaking of that are there any update news? There are more bugs and glitch they need to fix plus some functionality "adjustment".
How do you search for that?

lulz... that thing is off for like a week now D:
I just turned it on a few hours ago to buy and install Halo.
Hardly had time to enjoy it this month; exams, lots of dinner parties, "shopping" trip to London, work, etc.
For me it's clearing PC backlog and Steam sale. Halo is not very good, because with a controler it just get's very shallow :/
Was afraid of that. But it drains the battery too damn fast on my Lumia 920 and I want to complete it

You switched from the PS4 version to the XB1 version?
But yes, that sharpening filter needs to go ASAP. At the very least tone it down. It's kinda obnoxious what it's doing.

I thought AC4 on PS4 looks pretty good. Also, why switch man?

Funny enough I need to play it with the USB connector into a wall outlet otherwise it uses more power than it chargesWas afraid of that. But it drains the battery too damn fast on my Lumia 920 and I want to complete it

Just saw this in a local store:
Was this known? I had no idea the order was coming to the one.
Should have put down a pre-order.

Thief isn't but I was under the impression both Mad Max and Order were. Probably just a local store error.
Edit: Apparently Mad Max is indeed coming to Xbox One. I'm surprised I missed that.
Just the order is.

No, Mad Max and Thief are 100% coming to Xbox One.
Dunno what The Order 1886 is doing there, probably just a mixup.

Yeah, I have to agree. I didn't mind the combat at all, and I agree about the last 2 chapters being the best by FAR. Still not incredible in my opinion, but it's a far cry from the first half which seems really generic and boring. It's better upon replaying I found though, the first half that is.

Forza will give you the best value. With the amount of events to race in you could play for like 50 hours and then there's multiplayer. Ryse is like going to a 6 hour movie. It's good but not worth that kind of cash.

Never going to happen unless MS buys Sony

Great thread everyone! Really enjoyed it and the XBO launch.
Makes sense! Price is definitely the downside of going all digital. I imagine it will take ages for digital content to go on sale whereas Forza was already $40 on Amazon. I really want to be all digital with the Xbox One though so it is what it is.
Ryse is good but not full price good, $40 or less
Max was just okay in my opinion, terrible final boss battle
Forza 5 is the first Forza I've played and it's pretty good so far
Well, this thread has been a hoot. Glad there was one thread that was a shelter from the madness.
I think MS had a great idea doing hdmi in. The one has really become the center of the living room as far as entertainment goes. I believe this become more apparent over time.
I think it's gonna be a fun generation. I've decided to go all digital, for better or worse.
*grabs fiddle* Gentlemen, its been an honor

My xbox one isn't recognizing my kinect. I tried a bunch of different things people have suggest around the net.
Total fucking bummer

If it's broke I think MS will send you a replacement one

did you try a full shut down? --hold logo on box for 5 seconds until it shuts down and restart from controller?
otherwise as said, yes they will swap for new one pretty quickly

Try disconnecting the power cable and plugging it back in so you get the long green screen boot up. Happened twice for me with an unresponsive Kinect and that fixed it.

Yep I tried all of those things, none worked. I did the thing with MS support where they send one out first and then I send mine back so I'll have a replacement in 3-5 days (in a box they send with the replacement with postage paid). Not bad Had to give a CC# in case I didnt send the other one back - the price for a new kinect = $150 (if that wasn't known)
Took the wind out of my sails a bit but I obviously can still play games and 3-5 days isn't bad at all. Still enjoying the system.

Is there anyway to get around the crappy Australian digital prices? I want digital as I hate swapping disks all the time but a game on disk locally can usually be found for around $79. Digital price from the Xbox store is $99.
I have no idea about how regions etc work with Xbox.

Games are all region free. Console/store no longer uses the region of your account and instead it's whatever you set it to in settings (can be changed at will). To answer your primary question the best way is probably to buy games on the US store

Flew home on holiday leave for two weeks, and took my PS4 with me. Miss my Xbox One already
Couldn't pack both, so I had to choose what was more portable.

If you set it up like the vita one, call it the Xbox One Games Thread for (whatever month) and the OP lists the games slated to come out... I don't see why that wouldn't be allowed. That's what us vita-gaf folks had to do when they shut down the OTs for the system.
Oh this thread. Yeah, of course. Set it up and we'll all move on up to the East Side (Gaming OT)

Sad to see the launch thread come to a close. It's been a long ride Xbox One owners and 2014 is going to be AMAZING. TitanFall, Halo, Quantum Break, Sunset Overdrive, the ID@Xbox games starting to flow in, plus all the multiplats.
