Has anyone here have their cable box connected to their One?
I have a Directv genie (client not main unit) HD DVR receiver and there was a couple things that concerned me.
How has your experience been with it hooked up? If you can record stuff, can you watch those recorded shows?

What worries me is, that's the only way for me to be able to watch tv. I would always have to turn on my Xbox to watch tv. I watch sports games and like to fall asleep to that, and I'm nervous about keeping it on too much in fear of overheating. For my gaming consoles I usually never keep them on for THAT long unless I'm playing a JRPG, or a game I'm REALLY into. Sorry for the rant.

164 Xbox Ones won so far in 1 day. https://www.onehotholiday.com/winners


Lucky dogs, wish I could win one. I probably won't be getting one until January.

Just curious and if you don't feel comfortable you don't have to answer, but why January until you get a One? Price? Availability?

Fantastic site. If you want anything fixed/changed/enhanced ect on Xbox One post a comment on that site. Phil Spencer tweeted that him and his team are keeping an eye on it.

I asked for a complete revamp of the cheevos page, and the ability to keep pins static rather than moving around going by what you last played/used.

Pretty sure when watching TV the xbox isn't using a lot of power, I have my cable hooked up but then I barely watch TV so I can't really say from experience.

I do know on the site I just posted, the request for having your xbox one in a low power state whilst watching TV has been requested, lets hope MS and the team see that and implement it.

Damn dude, thanks for the swift response, and hasn't MS been pretty good when it comes to updates in the past?

You can't turn off controller vibration? I always play no vib lol



South park spoiler from tonight's episode:

 

The XBONE won the console warz. Bill Gates killed Kaz. Victory is ours.



So I just bought Forza 5 for $15.89 lol

I had a 25% discount card and thought hey might as well use this for Forza 5 which would make it $45 ($15 off) when I took it to the cashier she was confused about the math at first so she goes and gets a calculator to do the math. Well the good news is she wasn't dumb and she knew how to do the math. And good news for me she also didn't apply the math correctly. Instead of giving me $15 off she got it backwards and only charged me 15$ making it a 75% discount. xD

This probably makes me a horrible person for not saying something about this since I noticed immediately she had done something wrong (or exactly what she did wrong) but hey I have Forza 5 and only for $15 xD
