It was like cod in the same way chess is like checkers. I guess they're both games at least.

Apparently sprinting and loadouts are enough to draw the comparison.
 
Just noticed something kinda neet. The plug in for the change n play kits also work for Nokia 920 if anyone else has one. I'm wondering if this is something future based ala transferring stuff from phone to X1 and vice versa? Any thoughts from anyone? Wifes wasted so I'll be on here all night posting stuff.

I doubt it, my PS4 charge cable also charges my Galaxy S3, my daughters Kindle Fire, and even my Panasonic 3D glasses.
 
I used to work in the mobile phone business and most manufacturers were using the same style charging port. I think it was some kinda EU ruling thing.

Anything that handles micro-usb will work.

What does the EU have to do with American products? Ala Xbox, not being sarcastic really want to know.

Actually I am pretty sure it is law here too now. All cell devices have to have a universal input. I could be wrong but my Nokia 920 can be charged by alot of cables, including my 3d glasses one and I live in the states.
 
Halo 4 Campaign was awesome! Not big on MP heard a lot of complaining that it was to much like cod. If that's true I hope they go back to Halo greatness. The only thing about mp I always liked was it was who got the most kills who won the match. Wich is why I never won! I always had fun when I did check it out though.
Halo 4 MP felt like...Halo MP to me. It was just a recipe of Halo.
 
Am I the only one who feels insulted when " in the real world" the X1 is called the Xbone? I bring this up because I was talking to someone and they said it, and when I mentioned the awards, and games they said they weren't giving me attitude. What the person said was " xbone blows and so does Ghost". The whole conversation started by me telling this cod fan I was surprised by how much I liked Ghosts.

Will it go by timezones?
Well I'm trying to find a link for the article I read. It was a while ago but from what I remember, they didn't go into details.

Edit: found it on the AMA with IGN.
Will digitally downloaded games be able to be pre-loaded before release, so that they're simply unlocked and ready to go at 12:01am on the day of release?
WHITTEN, CHIEF XBOX ONE PLATFORM ARCHITECT: Not at launch, but you’ll see us do this and much more over the life of the program

I don't get offended but it does paint a picture in my eyes to the folks saying it. I immediately write them off as at best "fad followers" who just try to grasp onto things to pathetically try to be "cool" or simply morons. Either way I tend to look down upon them. Win/win for me!
 
Just announce it already!

Crackdown Developer Working on Unreal Engine 4 Action Adventure Title

by Nick Calandra
December 30, 2013

It was previously known that the developer of Crackdown, Ruffian Games, was currently working on an Unreal Engine 4 game, but up until now we didn’t know much more than that.

We’ve been doing some digging through Linkedin profiles and finally came up with some new information on the title that Ruffian Games iw working on. The Lead Artist of Ruffian Games, Paul Large lists on his experience tab that he’s currently working on an untitled action game utilizing Unreal Engine 4. You can see the listing just below.



(Click image to enlarge)

While it’s not exactly all that surprising, another developer, Barry Cairns does confirm on his page that the title is a next-generation title. Again, you can see the listing below.



If the title was listed as an open world action adventure title, we’d have much more confidence that the title was indeed Crackdown 3. However, in 2007 Crackdown did win the BAFTA award for “Best Action and Adventure Game”, so at the same time, this could easily point at Crackdown 3 being in development. We’ll be on the lookout for more information in the coming months leading up to E3.

I just respond: Xbox One Baby! BAD to the BONE!
 
Can anyone comment on this? What could a driver update actually do?

http://gamingbolt.com/xbox-one-upco...things-xbox-os-team-best-in-the-world-insider

NeoGAF user and industry insider thuway revealed recently about how he’s looking forward to the next update for the Xbox One’s OS in the coming weeks and that it “should mean great things”. The nature of those great things is up for debate, but what else could be expected aside from better voice command recognition and improved performance?

“I am trying to get a good read on when the next Xbox One driver update happens. Should mean great things. Sometime in the next few weeks,” he tweeted.

He also added that the team working at Redmond were probably some of the best OS programmers in the world, which is a given since this is the company that helped bring us Windows. “Make no mistake about it. The team at Redmond working on the Xbox OS are probably the best OS programmers in the world.”

Earlier today, thuway had spoken to a developer about the biggest bottleneck for the PS4 and Xbox One with the response being memory. Given that both consoles have been proudly touted as having 8 GB GDDR5 RAM and 8 GB DDR3 RAM (along with eSRAM) respectively, there is some limit on the RAM allocated for developer.

However, he clarified in some new tweets that it was a simple answer being given and nothing more. “I should leave a footnote: developer who made RAM comment was not complaining, only giving a straight answer.”

While developers may be satisfied with what the Xbox One and PS4, we shouldn’t assume that their ambition stops at any specific number. “Developers are very happy with these next gen machines, but let’s not delude ourselves into thinking developer ambition stops at 6 GB of RAM.”

I've heard a lot of negativity about the X1 from people who aren't even gamers over the last few months. When I first pre-ordered the X1, which I did as early as possible, my gf who is not a gamer in any way saw that I had pre-ordered it from Amazon texted me saying "You bought an Xbox One?! My friend told me that her brother said that console is bad!".

Hopefully now that the X1 is actually out on the market people's opinions will start to turn. A lot of the negativity is no longer warranted.

That's the part that's makes me feel insulted. He's been a Xbox owner since the 360 came out. I think he just believed all the negative stuff that was being written about it, and he's backed himself into a corner. Or he just can't afford it, and is in not wanting to admit it. The dude even lied to me and said he got a 4 launch day sent me a message telling me how great it was. He didn't, and he still doesn't own one. I hate when the game world and the real world collide!

I got all those, plus NBA, Fifa, peggle, killer instinct, BF4 premium, max, powerstar, and just dance 2014! Only game I got rid of was COD ghosts. Hated it. I wonder how full my hdd is.

my favorites thus far have been BF4, Rivals, Killer Instinct, Max, Fifa, NBA. Forza is fun here and there, and havent been able to really get into DR3. Assassins is good, but BF4 and KI3 keep me from playing it, and also my wife, who has been hogging the living room tv which is where it is!
 
I find it odd that my Xbox One just randomly records clips. I see the pop up toast notification, and I am like...uh...ok....record this you b****.
I think it's down to each game, the game decides which content to record such as in Fifa, volleys, keeper punch outs etc.
 
Just to chip in on the Xbone topic, when I see people using that word they straight away get plastered with fan boy, not looking into ANYTHING after E3, listening and seeing what they want to see dumb a$$ clueless clowns who I write off straight away and ignore anything after that :D
