Forums - Microsoft - Just bought a xone!!!!!

Congrats dude!

I remember seeing my Wii aside and exploring my new Xbox 360 dashboard and all the new things I could learn and do.

Have you connected it to your TV Box/cable/tuner yet? It's a nice feature. Plus you can use the One Guide to see what is on, what your friends are watching, and what is trending.

Also, what games did you get?

Remember, Xbox is much like Los Angeles. New York and San Francisco might hate us, but we are cool with them. (and they hate that too. )



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Welcome! We're excited to have you aboard, and we appreciate your attention as we demonstrate the... nah, who am I kidding...

Xbox Live Gold is a must though. You'll find you can have two games monthly for free for a whole year and with CDKeys it can cost no more than $30 per year...



There's a few cool tricks you can do. If you have a decent phone, you can "cast" it onto the screen. Whatever is on your phone will be on your TV.

With the Xbox One Smartglass app, you can control your console and use it to type.

You can pin things to you start up screen for quick and easy access. Even movies/series from Netflix!

It uses AA batteries but if you like, you can buy a micro USB cable or even use the one from your PS4.

Double tap the home button and you can "snap" apps. Two things at the same time! Track your Achievements while you play, watch a movie while you load a game, whatever. It's awesome.

There's more but half the fun is figuring them out.

So yeah I've finally betrayed Nintendo and Sony and brought a nice new ugly as fuck xbox one into my living room. It's now sat there dwarfing my little wii u.

But the thing was I couldn't pass up the deal: £196 or 279€ and I got a 500gb xone, two controllers, fallout 4, forza horizon 2 and the witch 3. Nice. Oh yeah xbzox ones were flying out the shop and I mean flying. Saw a few people with ps4's and no one with a Wii u :(

 

Wow, Xbox Ones were flying off the shelves? There were a few people getting a PS4? So X1>PS4 in the UK? No one bought WiiU which means Halo 5>>>>>Splatoon?

Ok in all seriousness congrates on the purchase. You should check out Quantum Break, Crackdown 3, Gears of War Ultimate Edition/4, Scalebound, Sea of Theives, and there might be other unannounced games for X1 in 2016,maybe we finally get to hear about Undead Labs class4 MMO game.



Proud to be a Californian.

Thanks for the advice guys. Me n the wife smashing forza out now so far so good.

One thing though. The downloads are soooooo slooooooooow. Forza been going 15 hours and only 58% done is this normal? My pc, ps4 and wii u don't take no where near that?

Congrats and hope you enjoy it man.

Make sure you get Rare Replay! A lot of great classics like Banjo Kazooie, Perfect Dark and Jet Force Gemini - along with other classic titles!

Would recommend Halo MCC as well - man I wish I had a XBO - would get these two games n_n.

 

Already got rare replay. May get MCC if I get time lol. I



Xbox finally has NoGamez!

The member I mean. Have fun!



Well once you done with Horizon 2 you should probably get Forza 6 even if you don't play it online it has a pretty good career mode and a very good free play mode and it has a split screen two player races.



Grab Sunset Overdrive as soon as possible its probably the best game of the gen so far!
