That Ryse trailer is sick. I'm playing the game first, so the reviews don't mean much. The thing is, the game has been bumped on since E3, so it's not going to be that much of a letdown if it gets poor scores. Right?

Well it's been dubbed as MS's Knack, which scored 56. So not really, some are expecting worse than that.

@Slade6Alpha: Sorry, quoting is not working on my new phone, so I hope you find this post:

Dead Rising 3
Ryse: Son of Rome
Forza 5
Battlefield 4

Planning to get some more games two weeks after launch if I'm not too busy.

Found it! Nice, when I get my One I'm definitely getting those first three games.

Do you think it's going to preform that badly? 56 is pretty bad, this type of game the scores could be all over the place. I'm expecting mid 60s, low 70s. But again, I'm never the best when it comes to predictions.

No I don't, I expect points knocked off for gameplay but not that much. No idea how it'll score now, reviewers are unpredictable!!

Good news is Xbox One users are rating it on par with KI, DR3 and Forza rather than Crimson Dragon and Loco.

That Ryse trailer was totally badass. I was wondering where I heard that music from and it was from the Mass Effect 2 launch trailer which I found equally badass.



Sometimes I wonder if Microsoft really doesn't know what they are doing. How can they implement Twitch and praise how great and important it is but not have the possibility to stream your gameplay from Xbox to Twitch at release? That's like a joke... Not that I would need it but it's like "Hey guys, use Twitch on Xbox One to watch plenty of PS4 streams because we don't have this option"

Xbox One Will Not Support Live Streaming At Launch 

Microsoft announced new details about how Twitch will work on the Xbox One at launch. The good news is that you’ll be able to watch videos and earn achievements. The bad news is that you won’t be able to stream directly from your console for another couple of months at least.

“We know the ability to instantly broadcast gameplay is something the gaming community is excited about, and we are too,” Microsoft writes on the Xbox Wire site. “We are working to ensure the initial Twitch on Xbox One broadcasting experience meets the expectations of the Twitch community, so while this feature won’t be available right away, we’ll let you know as soon as it is ready. Our goal is to deliver it during the first part of 2014.”

 

 

The Twitch app will give Xbox Live Gold members access to everything on the service. The app can be snapped (placed on the right of the screen) and cycled via fast switching.

I'm really really enjoying remote play on PS4. Wii U off TV play is also great. Are any of you guys hoping Microsoft joins the other two and gets an equivalent experience?

correct me if I'm wrong but WiiU doesn't work away from the console (in the bus etc)???? PS4 is suppose to right ??? how does the PS4 on the go remote play works ???? is it good and on such a small screen is it playable ??? 

 

I'm not really interested since I don't play much on the go even on my smartphone.... but I'm curious to know how it works



Review snippet (Taken down)

Pros
- Much better streamlined dashboard/UI
- Great selection and variety of launch games
- The controller is a lot better (THANK THE GAMING GODS FOR THAT NEW D-PAD!)
- The Kinect 2.0's body capture technology comes vastly improved
- Multitasking is a breeze thanks to the Snap feature
- Online gaming is a much better experience with Smart Match
- The apps all perform well
- Watching TV on your Xbox One just feels right
- Following your friends feels a lot easier to navigate than before
- The addition of media achievements and challenges is awesome

Cons
- The Kinect 2.0 voice recognition technology works...most of the time
- The SmartGlass app doesn't have a lot of readily compatible games/movies...yet
- Crimson Dragon and LocoCycle are letdowns
