@locknuts -- have you configured it ? If you haven't , you need to do before using it. Also where it is palced? I use trhe kinect all teh tiem esepcially for watching movies and D4. I have it placed it oa all above the tv and it works really good. Its good for navigation around the OS and good for games like D4 , Alien isolation as noise detection , its useful for substitution in fifa games which my brother told me. It has its uses but willl never replace the controller

My Xbox ID is: Lachusss. Add me or leave your ID and I'll add you!

Also, first impressions are pretty good overall. I'll be getting some actual games this week but I've played a bit of the Killer Instinct and Forza Horizon 2 demos. Both seem pretty great. The box itself and controller are uglier than the PS4 but the controller is pretty comfortable. Not sure if I like it better than the 360 controller yet, but it's close. Compared to the DS4 it's basically a draw.

Kinect seems pretty useless as it doesn't recognise my gestures or voice most of the time, so I'll probably end up unplugging it unless it's a really good alternative for a headset. I'll find out soon enough with all the great games coming. Looking forward to MCC, Sunset Overdrive and after playing Bayonetta/2, I'm really looking forward to Scalebound as well.

I'm very happy with my decision to swap, as at the end of the day it's all about the games and the Xbox One has the exclusives I want.


I read your log on your profile.. you have at very least had an XB1 since february. because people don't sell one console for another.. just to rebuy it later. also since you game PC as well.. just buy the games for the PC, cause they are coming

Oh lord, is this for real?

No.

Man, if it IS real, that's pretty lame.  Why people feel the need to lie about gaming just blows my mind.  Pretty dosappointing, too.  There's only one excuse he could givebto justify having an account for that long but now, I'm not even sure I would believe it.

No. It's not real. I got it yesterday.

Yeah I'm enjoying the demo and I was a huge fan of the SNES original. Plus it seems pretty cheap.


Oh so you got the one free character?  Not sure who is free right now.  Its $40 for the entire game which id definitely recommend.  Story should be coming soon, 16 characters, etc.  Personally its the best online fighting game ive played which includes all the big names like MK, SF, Tekken, DoA, etc

@locknuts -- Its not software download. You have to go to settings then kinect. to get to settings, you need to to my games and apps, then my apps . Settings should be there

Others in this thread have informed me that I haven't configured it properly yet. I'll have a proper go at it when I get home.

Yeah I don't see why Locknuts would lie about it, to be honest. Seems like a very strange thing to do, so let's try and return on topic please!

Whatever that topic was. I forget.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I'll send a request to get you into the Preview Program. You should also try the Smartglass app. Coupled with Kinect, it's like a remote in your pocket.

It doesn't mean I'm happy though, I still feel sadness for you selling your PS4...


Send a request to me too. Gamer tag: NineEther999

I would have just saved my money and got both. You are going to be missing out on so much. You had 6-8 years of gaming on one console on lock down. You had to lose money in the trade in unless you sold it on ebay. Regardless it is your choice.

I know. The problem is that I have this thing called a wife who dislikes my hobby enough as it is. 3 consoles in the house plus my gaming PC might make her snap.


This is where Kinect comes into play. My fiance hates gaming and would destroy my system if she didn't know how expensive it is. Guess what? She loves kinect because I showed her Just Dance and recently I discovered Fantasia and bought it for her. I've been getting mad kinky sex since. Kinect will be your best friend! Oh, and I like to use it with my cable.
