"Skype with Kinect 2 is a perfect match"

 

 

Can you please explain to me how so? Legit question since I use Skype.

High Quality, crisp voice, and can group chat.  It also allows you to have them in chat while watching movies from your TV or playing games.

@OP  I've said before but everything announced has not bothered me in the slightest.  And i love the OS and features so far.

Seeing as the other 200 threads allows you to bash it basically there needs to be some threads where people who are interested in it can talk.




       

I liked it over all, I just had a problem with the used game fee. So other than that I'm still thinking about getting the Xbox 1 but I'm waiting until E3.



Mmmkay.

I like the live sports updated and voice commands. I LOVE the fact that you can call channel names and it switches. I cant tell you how annoying it is to remember for example what channel IFC is on.

Huge football fan so the NFL deal is kind of cool. But no Sunday ticket is a complete bust.

This is unfortunately all that I can say good about the system. Are those enough for me to buy it and pay for Live?

No



It is so great I want to have sex with it.

I like the look of the thing and the NFL partnership.



The idea of 15 exclusives in the first year is crazy. Because MS exclusives are nothing that you see in the market.
Also I want to know if Xbox TV is interactive with Kinect.

I've been meaning to ask people this without a thread so i want to ask you since I've always looked at you being a reasonable guy.  But why is it that you care about this fee?  Shouldn't the money go to the publisher/developer rather than retailers like gamestop getting 100% of the money?  Isn't that kind of jipping the people who made the game?  It has been no secret that ive never supported used games, but the way this works you are still allowed to resell your games.  So what exactly don't you like about it?  Say you buy a game at 60 dollars and beat the game.  You can resell it to a retailer for let's say $30.  You still saved $30.  The only difference is that now the developer/publisher gets money when used games gets bought rather than the retailer taking 100% of the money.  This is a win for people who buy games and like to resell them, retailers, and the developers. 

By the way this is a real question.

I read that as "leet mommies" and immediately thought of Kinect being always on.



Interestingly it appears something isnt right.

Microsoft are categorically saying on Twitter the reports are wrong. You dont have to pay a used game license.
