If people want to skip buying a great game because of an asinine reason related to demo replays, then that's their prerogative.
Not sure why anyone would need to play a demo more then one or two times anyways, its a demo, its to try it out and see if you like it, not to replay 100 times. Personally I never play a demo more then once.
 
The Division May be Delayed to 2015

The Division may be delayed until 2015 according to an anonymous source from Ubisoft Massive.

Speaking to GameReactor, the source claimed that while the recently-demonstrated Snowdrop Engine that powers the game is close to completion, only a sliver of the actual world has been built.

"The game engine works well, it's not done, but works well. The actual game development has barely started, however," said the anonymous insider.

"The fact that Ubisoft has gone public with a 2014 release date feels laughable to be perfectly honest, we will never be able to release The Division this year. It's a large project, and we have very far to go."

While unconfirmed, it's certainly possible that the title may have slipped to 2015 considering the fate that's befallen other Ubisoft titles. Last year, the publisher said that upcoming racer The Crew would release in the first quarter of 2014, with The Division following towards the end of the year. Since then though, a number of setbacks have occurred.
 
Is there any way to retrain kinect to recognise people better? I don't have a problem signing in, neither does my girlfriend who also uses the Xbox.

But sometimes I'll be signed in, watching Netflixetflix for example, I'll move to get more comfortable or exit the room, upon re-entering the xbox recognises me as my girlfriend.

Yes, I have an awesome womanly figure. No, it's not the end of the world but sometimes it is annoying. I also have trouble with "show my stuff". Am I turning into a woman?

If you are having trouble, go into the Kinect options, or while signing in and choose "I wasn't recognized". The Xbox will then ask if the person in front of the Kinect is you and after you confirm it says it'll "remember you better next time".

I don't know what that means, but I suppose it helps collect data relevant to recognition.

I'll have to give that a try. Lately it only seems to sign me in about half the time, the rest I have to do it manually.
 
Not turning this is to a console wars question, but with Sony Announcing cloud live TV, with I think quick switch and resume play on other devices, Does this mean all the advantage Xb1 had with TV now gone? With the cloud talk from MS why didn't they go this way from the start?
 
Cheers for the responses. Have done that 'i wasn't recognised' trick a couple times. Is there a way to make it forget and start again?

Lol. Mine still gets confused when my brother turns on his xbox( an entire state away) because we look very similar. It always asks if he's here or there :D

Announcing features and having them delivered in a manner that is pleasing to its customers are two vastly different things. The Xbox One has features that work now, and they integrate pretty seamlessly into most home theater options.

Also the eye can't touch the Kinect, personally I've always liked it. Hopefully a lot of the " I won't even plug it in" has stopped. I've had problems with it picking up my commands, but its still freaking so awesome its worth the hiccups from time to time.

Mine isn't plugged in.
 
I've been using the same gamertag/calltag for four separate systems by now (Dreamcast, Xbox, Xbox 360, X1). I've never had a desire to change it, and don't really know what I would change it to if I did.

I believe there is an option to change your GT if you go to "Friends", then "My Profile", and then choose the option for "Change Gamertag". I hope that is right, I'm doing this from memory, as I am at work currently.
It costs $10 my account is currently suspended, because a purchase was made only account that wasn't covered(New year eve, god I hate drunks)
I was just kidding around though. I'm actually excited about the fact we will soon be able to use our real names. I hope that will be free.

This is especially true with Sony. They love to make great promises that never truly come to fruition
 
God I hope not. Haven't had a ghost recon fix since 2007(that future soldier garbage wasn't ghost recon).
Not surprising. Since WD is delayed until about springtime, UBI wants to spread out their games if nothing else. I bet another Ass Creed game will launch fall 2014, so might as well release Division sometime in 2015.

i guess that's a good point. Jus with all this news with TV, now cloud game streaming its full momentum forPS4.

I wonder when we will here more about cloud services for XBone? In streaming or server processing?

Man how many times have live went down compared to psn. The games are here and only getting better! You have darn neat future technology in the Kinect, shoot ten years, no make that 5 years ago the Kinect would be inconceivable. Enjoy the console don't worry about sales numbers.
If that's what your going by then the Wii was the best last Gen console.
Relax play and talk to your console.
Or go get a 4 keep that Xbone crap on the PS thread.

im not worried about sales, just like to know where my purchase of xbox one is headed and is it keeping pace or above the competition with features which is why i choose xb1 over ps4 1st and of course games i like more too.

maybe ms has some plans just not ready to reveal yet. Is there a show next month?

Man everything Sony is promises MS has now. It will only get better. Look at the difference between 360 when it was first launched, and how it plays now(including on line service).
Just get what makes you happy. You have 7 years, if you decide you made the wrong choice. Plenty if time to get the other 1. If you choose a 1 get DR3 its kick a$$.

MS has a streaming service that allows me to play Xbox and 360 games?
