I was just reminded of something that happened todat; I was on my way to gamestop to pick up my copy of Tearaway, after waiting in a line; due to the XB1 releasing , anyway after picking up my copy a guy walks in to pick up Ryse: Son of Rome so the clerk(and also a friend of mine) hands him the copy and this happened:

Customer: I wanted this for PS4
Clerk: It's only on XB1
Customer: You mean you guys sold out on PS4?
Clerk: No it's exclusive for the XB1
Customer: But I had this pre-ordered for months
Clerk: I'm sorry but it it was announced as MS exclusive for years now....it was a 360 game at one point
Me: excuse me but how did you not know it was exclusive, didn't you see the commercial? it had the XB1 logo after it
Customer: I though it was like Call of Duty; how MS just shows their logo but it's available to all games
Me; oh I see...well sorry dud you're out of luck
Customer: Can I put the money towards something else
Clerk: yeah, what do you want?
Customer: Dead Rising 3
Clerk: That's also exclusive to the XB1
Customer: what!?!? come on really!?
Clerk: I'm sorry, maybe their might be a port sometime down the road...

he did pick up KZ: SF thought(I suggested it to him)

This is hard for me to believe.

 

So I just opened up the box and had a look at everything and I must say that it is a mighty fine looking console, Kinect looks sharp too. I grabbed the bag out of the van when my wife got home and was surprised at how heavy it was. I decided to put to use my postal scale and the regular edition box weighs exactly 15 lbs. I weighed the Kinect sensor and that came in at 2 lbs. 1.8 oz. and the console by itself weighs 7 lbs. 14 oz. Not as big or heavy as I was expecting but I love the way it looks, very modern and clean looking, IMO. The controller is nice too and I really like the smaller sticks. I was a little worried about the bumpers because that was one complaint I've consitently heard but I don't think it will be an issue. All in all I'm very impressed with the look of this thing, I can't wait to mess with it for real.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

I find it interesting how many people confuse disk and disc in computing.

Haha amussing gamestop story. XBONE has the better exclusives but it'd be a problem if people didn't know that.



Hey, can anyone tell me what the video playback is like on the XB1 (through USB or DLNA). I've looked around but I can't find anything concrete, so has anyone tried?

Late night question guys! Does the Kinect clamp onto your TV, or do you have to buy something for that. Once I get mine I want it on top of my 42" Panasonic TV and not on my cabinet alongside the bottom of my TV. How is your setup? Hope to get some answers in the morning (for me).

I don't believe it has a clip out of the box, but you might not need one depending on your setup.

I always have to put cameras on the bottom since my TV doesn't have a flat edge on the top :(

i have mine below my tv.  But i think you have to buy a clamp. Plus it is pretty heavy so i wouldnt want the thing to fall.  It would likely do some damage to it.

Here is one if you are set on putting it on top though
