Awesome! Saves the hassle of inputting all of those tiny numbers >_<

I'm hoping Nintendo switches to this format eventually as well, considering both Wii & 3DS have cameras.


Are they capable though? I mean I'm sure they are, most smartphones today are. I just always wondered why the original Kinect didn't support this and assumed it wasn't possible. 

I would be certain the 3DS could do that as the camera do do that doesn't have to be that powerful.  Rather certain that even with the quality of the 'Jenny Macarthy Fitness game' (I forget exactly what it was caled) for the Wii could do it.

And I think you are fogetting the original Kinect could do that in certain games like the plushy Kinectimals had a scanable code to unlock extra animals.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Good news and bad new guys.

Good News- Forza 5 looks amazing and im sure it plays amazing too.

Bad News - There is only 14 Tracks at launch. Must've been stressed to make launch release.

Hopefully more tracks will be added soon enough.




       

Alan Wake was a really great game, but consider this: 343i made a fantastic game (Halo 4, 2012) on a console that released in November 2005, on top of that it's their very first major game as a team.

-> Halo 5 all the way.

I'm thinking we should have one last VGC play date before the X1 launches. To give a send off to the 360 before it goes into official last gen retirement. Who would be down?


I'm in.

Well I am getting an XB1 soon, might as well immerse myself in the glory that is XBO Nation :D


We need a list of day one buyers so we can get hyped together!


Edit - Oh no I wanted my 22,222 post to be in here :(

Also in.

Voting Halo 5. I'm really excited for both these games. I may have even voted Quantum Break against KI! Nothing beats Halo though, especially pure 1080 60fps Halo adultery.



Such an agonizing choice for me. On the one hand, Halo is Halo. That franchise pretty much turned me into a real gamer. Halo 4 was 343's first crack at the game, and it was amazing. Best story ever imo in Halo, great overhaul of the engine, some cool new ideas. Multiplayer fell short, but with the Halo 5 they could really knock it out of the ballpark. On the other hand we have Remedy, one of my all time favorite developers, and the creators of Alan Wake, which was my number one game of this generation. Back with Quantum Break, a new IP I know very little about except.....I just have a feeling about it. I mean everything they've said so far just sounds so fantastic....Max Payne style gameplay, Alan Wake style story, tied in directors cut TV show that's actually tailored to your playthrough, awesome art style.

Call me crazy, but I gotta give it to Quantum Break
I'm dying to get my hands on this one

Man....why aren't I getting any free shit? I've been with them since the original Xbox. Where's my free game?
Lucky bastards. Some people are even getting the console from MS.

By the way, if anyone wants to trade me for the Fifa code....I'm all ears. Hate soccer. I'll trade you for like literally anything. Send me a bag of skittles and a thank you note. No, but seriously...if anybody wants it get in touch with me

Deal still open? Want something specific?



Voted Quantum since it is Remedy's and I'm not a fan of Halo.

< I got Killer Insinct

248,000+ gamerscore & 6 year 7 months a gold member.

Aint switched on my 360 today though (found out through my MSN account)

When i switch it on tomorrow it would be EXTRA sweet if i got a free ONE (happy regardless though)

Next big question is....... does this free Killer Instinct also include the Original Killer Instinct?

Wow! Congratualtions on the game And the gamerscore.  Enjoy the game.

I don't think the original is included as they have repeately said the Xbox One is not backwards compatiable.

An ARCADE  port of the Original is bundled for all those who purchase the killer instinct ultra edition.

Thats why i'm so curious as to wether we get Original killer instinct with our free copy.

Swiped this info from somewhere.............

Finally there's the Killer Instinct Ultra Edition, which Microsoft describes as "the best value" for fans. This includes the six launch fighters, early access to the two DLC characters, accessory packs, extra costumes and the original Killer Instinct arcade game.





Looks like this is going to be a very close poll, if early votes are any indication

It's crazy. I honestly didn't expect Quantum Break to make it this far, now it's taking on Halo.

 

Win or lose here and it's already won. I have a good feeling about it too...  I just couldn't vote against Halo.
