Joking, I love Australia. Just asked if I could get a game for $68 here, they said no way! Thief will be $88 unless I import it. You lucky bastard!

Wow, buddy congratulations!

Good to hear about the dashboard. I also agree it needs some more work and apps. I know we do get some upgrades next week. If you look at the launch OS for Kinect to what it is now on the 360, things will only get better.

How do you like the voice commands on Kinect?

Also, I recommend playing Ryse on Centurion level. It makes it rage inducing hard. Well, at least it did for me.

Are you going to get TitanFall?



 

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!

$88 + tax? How much is the sales tax in Australia??

Yes, you heard me. $400 Xbox One (CAD) through kijiji, which is a deal because with tax it is $570 (CAD) brand new. It is literally brand new and must have been from one of those (fell off the back of the truck) deals as it was literally perfectly packaged (and Day 1). I have now completed the cycle and am a proud owner of all 3 consoles.

Xbox interface is amazing and far superior to the PS4's , however, Killzone: SF still takes the top spot in graphics for me (still in the beggining for Ryse).

Anyways, Ryse is ok but for those who own the console would DR3 be a better purchase or Forza 5?


I disagree, the x1 os Needs a lot ofwork.

I have to ultra agree with you, as in it needs a lot of work. I have both the ps4 and xbox one. The ps4 ui is so much faster, everything you click on loads almost instantly, the store, friends, apps well everything. The xbox one you click friends, or netflix, achievements almost everything on the console and it's super slow. Also installing a game on xbox one takes forever. 

Get Dead Rising 3, the graphics kinda look like a last gen game but it's really fun.




 

 

Great deal. Good find. Enjoy!

Tax is automatically included here. We have GST here... It's called other things elsewhere.

Picked it up for $65 from a retailer that operates online from the UK. I'll pre-order Titanfall here though so I get it day one.

Does Australia use American Dollars as its primary currency?

Ah, so then you guys aren't paying that much more than us. In Canada an X1 with tax (GST + PST) costs $570.

@ everyone

X1 the best of all 3?? Nope.  You just answered the question yourself.  Why is the X1 marked down to $400?  In 3 different scenarios now from what I see, costco and some other place too.  Great deal?? Yes, for you right now. But soon it's gonna have an official price drop and be even cheaper.  Not that I plan on getting one anyway.  Just saying it's nothing out of the ordinary with the X1 at its current state. 

Dead Rising 3, a good game probably but not something to really talk about since with the frame rate dropping down to 12 frames per second.

Who said the Xbox One was the best out of any console? The OP just said in his OPINION the Xbox One has a better OS.
