yes i think i got the console what if it declines my credit card. do i loss the console. but i know i have money in it.

 

[jtrov]

Looks like someone fell asleep at Amazon.

Come on.

I was able to snag one under the "1 new for 499.99" right below the item description. I don't know if they purposely placed it their instead of actually showing in-stock. But that's how I was able to place a pre-order just now.

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Oops

I was wondering when you'd edit that out lol

 

[Fahrenheit]

I haven't used a DS4 but i meant in comparison to the DS3 where the nubs and loose sticks were a disaster for accuracy, IMO.

Yeah I agree, get a good grip on the stick on the Xbone. One thing I like better about the Xbpad over the DS4 is the shoulder buttons. I can be holding a trigger down and kinda move my finger over to hit the bumper where on the DS4 I gotta take my finger off the trigger to hit the bumper.


Hope both get good PC drivers

yeah i saw that after i pressed f5, then i clicked it and got the pre-order hope it actually goes through.

 

[EagleEyes]

Of course not. There's no reason to, the media features don't seem to be unique (much better served with PS4 or Roku; HDMI in degrades picture and sound quality) and the lack of hardware power and refinement means I'd have to buy a system for very few exclusives.

Come on man, do you really think anybody is taking you seriously at this point? Your entire posting habits this year have been so biased that its been fun just from a sheer entertainment value to read it. Continue on but know that what you say is definitely taken with a grain of salt concerning anything Xbox related.

 

[Terbinator]

Indeed. After 8 years my wired 360 controller is starting to get sticks like a few days old DS4

Spoiler

lol

Except Sony did produce a better console experience - at a cheaper price.

You've used both?

I gots mine

Where from????

 

[Black Republican]

Anyone else standing in line on 22nd?

I gots mine

wtf?!!?

OH GAWD WHAT HAVE I DONE

haha

You are weak

PC support isn't until 2014.

So why did you buy a PS4 and not a gaming PC?

 

[sixteen-bit]

Looking forward to KI

I'm not biased, I'm taking on a fact-based rational view of the situation (that's how I like to form my opinions). The universal truth isn't "both consoles were created equal": Microsoft has only themselves to blame for how poor this machine turns out to be.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Kiosk coming soon

 

[enewtabie]

Awesome. I was able to snag a Day one off Amazon.

 

[derFeef]

Because of the history of Sony and their stud.... ah forget it, it's netBuff...
This hasn't even a place in here.

Not everyone can work with the Xbox Team.

Why wouldn't I buy a PS4? All the great Sony exclusives as well as the best console version of multi platform titles.

 

[Fahrenheit]

As long as its coming. Even with the loose sticks its hard to go back to an OG 360 controller.

A better than what?

And if you think Sony met your expected standards, how about just using their product(s) and stop trolling here?

 

[clav]

haha

You are weak

day 1 or go home

 

[T.O.P]

what's he doing here i have no idea

Anyway

I gots mine

ENJOY!!!!!

Keep "fighting the good fight" in this Console War, soldier.

So are you saying that Xbox One will only have a few exclusives?

 

[derFeef]

You mean the studios?

 

[buckeye4life]

Are you guys not concerned that optical doesn't put out Dolby digital, meaning no surround sound gaming ? I'm floored, unless this is false, I'm cancelling my preorder before I'm billed today. Is this indeed true ?

 

[shakex]

I gots mine

So nice.

From Dubai. Will post impressions later

It is indeed true, and a huge problem for most headphone setups.

So are you saying that Xbox One will only have a few exclusives?

Seems reasonable to assume: It has much fever right at launch, and Microsoft's history wouldn't lead one to assume that platform exclusives are their strong suit. Add in the uncertainty over what their future strategy will be (CEO search), something that most certainly means they aren't investing all that much right now.

 

[Gumbie]

With reviews coming out has anyone seen if you can output game audio to the headset that comes packed with it?

 

[abracadaver]

I want to know this as well

My receiver only has optical in, no hdmi yet.
Can I play the games in DTS or only stereo ?

 

[Truelize]

Just woke up and checked my email and was greeted with my Bestbuy.ca shipping notification.
So happy, happy, happy!

 

[Pollux]

So, this means it went through?

I have an order number and all that, but haven't received an email confirmation...

 

[operon]

Come one amazon get your ass in gear and update the dispatch information

For reals man just get out, its a thread about celebrating and discussing a launch not a platform to push some pro-Sony bs.

 

[Maastricht]

Couldn't you get 5.1 from the controller, or something like that? I thought I read that somewhere.

That day 1 packaging is really nice.

It supports LPCM over optical too doesn't it? Lots of receivers can play multichannel that way.

 

[buckeye4life]

No offense, are u married with kids ? I have great surround sounds set ups, just can't blare my game 99 percent of the time

Add in the uncertainty of what their future strategy will be (CEO search), something that most certainly means they aren't investing all that much right now.

This assumption doesn't compute with the fact that Microsoft are expanding their 1. party studios and development teams. They will probably also continue with outsourcing projects like Killer Instinct and Forza Horizon.

Microsoft doesn't stop just because they are getting a new CEO.

This thread has been the only Xbox One releated thread that has thankfully stayed 'drive by trolling' free on the most part but it seems thats about to end.

netBuff haven't you got more negative Xbox One threads to make anyway?

 

[The Flash]

Stupid Amazon. "We're sorry! There is a problem and we are working to resolve it because we're a bunch of dumb monkeys!". Looks like I'm going to GameStop on Thursday.

If you feel someone is trolling, ignoring them works wonders. Why give someone like that an audience ?
