If someone wants to post it, the PS4 jailbreak is apparently now legit. All games are now free on the PS4.

I'll take a look but with the X1 NAND being dumped, the drive being worked on and X1 games already being ripped in totality, things look to be heading that way with both consoles.

That's a very bad thing.

Yeah especially considering how early we are into the generation.

Edit: Hey B166er

PS4 rumored has been debunked, if you want the link I'll PM, just ask, X1 links can be provide too which are now confirmed.

I've read about this on the Xbox support forum. Chat with a support rep and they'll send you a new power supply.

I have to say, Xbox support is leaps and bounds better than it was back in 2006. I had a controller disconnecting problem and they sent me a new Xbox in the mail without me having to first return the old one. Got my replacement last night and it was a brand new xbox, not refurb'ed.
Shoot back in 06 they would credit your account some MS points.
 
The Xbox One's start in a nutshell. Beautiful and powerful.

I really think all these complaints are total nit picking's and really not 'issues'.

Sure they've missed a couple of bits out but they are not CRUCIAL at this stage we're in, this is MS they will patch and update it with ease in the coming weeks.

I have no fundamental issues at all with my xbox one or the functionality I think it's all being blown out of proportion because news is now slow due to the consoles launching.....isn't it?
Just like they fixed Windows 8 so fast? Its still crap, they think that party, achievements are ok just the way they are. I used to alwaysbe in a party but with xbox one I'm finding myself socialy isolated, don't receive notifications of friends online, party chat terrible, can't easily compare achievements etc etc. People who made xbox UI have never used xbox 360! Everything what made xbox 360 the best is actually wayyy behind xbox 360 levels. Why do I need to wait for my achievements to load? I'm accessing them on local machine. Why give me annoying friends feed but think that friends online notification would be overwhelming? Why hide my friends behind many clicks and when you invite them into party even more clicks? This used to take two click on xbox 360, now its 6.
 
Not sure about all the UI hate( I Still think it's a great starting point), but the settings tile is in the Games and Apps Menu. You should be able to pin it to your favorites if you want...
This is really unaceptable. How can you say a great starting point when they broke the faundamental thing? Why make everything its own app and having to wait on loading times for each app all the time? They took xbox 360 UI and downgraded it! It was also windows 8 style but acceptable for console and useful with great Guide, now you have to go to dashboard and either find out if you can snap an app which half you can't. In my opinion for quick things that I want to do snap is way worse than guide as guide had everything you could need at your fingertips. Now friends are a background thing and so are achievements and party chat. Loading times to see achievements on my local console? C-mon lets be real
 
Party chat has been hit and miss so far, the most frustrating thing is not being able to turn party chat on. With games like BF4 if you join a party your best chance of getting the party chat to work is to go to the dash and join, then re-enter BF. FYI my NAT is open, all X1 ports forwarded and X1 is in the DMZ. Still love the console regardless.

That sounds and weird and honestly very unexpected if you ask me. These things like Party Chat and how smooth it all works has been a freaking given on Xbox 360 for years now, how did they not bring this over to X1 smoothly? The X1 ain't out in my country until god knows when in 2014, but i sure do expect to play Titanfall while talking to all my friends in a Party Chat. If not...sorry that would be ridiclous.
 
Apparently on Reddit there have been a lot of complaints about Party Chat not working? They said this should be something that works from day one. And Major Nelson said this:

“Had a meeting today about much of this and I can say that things will get better. I can’t offer a timeline of a list of what till be addressed first, but we are aware of the issue and things will get better.”

I find this a bit hard to believe. Could be that some people have problems with this, but i doubt a huge amount. Cause i haven't read much about it here.
Party system os terribly broken. My friend in party with me while I'm playing COD and he's trying KI and he can't join a match because I'm not in KI? Wtf! All of my friends had issues with NAT being Moderate and their Party Chat refusing to start because of it.
 
Ahhh, that's the smell of fresh rumors, from a totally different source (not MisterX's guy):

Hello guys long time since my insiders have gave me info to spill,but here we are and enjoy these tidbits!;-)

Warframe is a timed exclusive on the PS4,everybody should know that from IGN article.He is what you don't know.D.E. The makers of Warframe had over the phone talks with Microsoft about bringing Warframe to Xbox One,but demanded to be paid the amount Sony was offering to be a permanent exclusive.Microsoft reject the money demand.That is why in the article on IGN D.E. Said they would be happy to be Sony exclusive!Microsoft doesn't want to pay them money!

Sony was in talks to buy Crash Bandicot ip back FRO Activision.Thats why Acti pulled down the website for the IP and Sony was leaving hidden clues about crash Bandicot in its commercials.You guys should have all heard about that.Here is what you don't know,The Activision CEO Bobby saw how much hype Crash was getting from the internet and certain forums and Actiivision Increased the amount of money they wanted for the IP,Sony has sense back out of negoations!

Microsoft and Epic has been discussing a reboot of the Gears of War franchise.Talks are pointing to a reboot starting before the Gears of War Judgement prequal and retelling the story all the way to Gears 3.The new series has not been green lit yet,but there is talks!

Quantum Break is said to be one of the greatest looking games ever to be made!Insider just wanted to throw that out there!

An open beta test for Titanfall has been in the works,and VGX announcement could give the date!Insider said every one at Microsoft is pumped about this idea.They believe once people play the game it sells it self.They beta will be for Xbox One I'm told!

Microsoft has been hiring and is looking to pump out more first party games then they have ever did!Insider says multiple reboots have been discussed and sequels!

Microsoft has also been looking at bringing free to play mmos and other games to Xbox One and have discussions with serval companies!

There has been talk of giving PEGGLE 2 away for free to Xbox One owners,nothing is final yet.The hold up is weather Microsoft wants to pay EA a ton of money or invest it some where else.

Microsoft is already preparing it E3 games agenda and some games that have just end started in the last few months will make its debut at E3 minus some unseen problems!

And a little about QB that I missed....can't wait for VGX!

Wtf man, of all possible problems i had not expected any issues with this. Something that works so damn well on 360. I just don't get it. And that stuff from Major Nelson that things will get better...sigh...they sure as hell need to be too. He can't help it, but wtf man.

Hold on...a retelling of Gears up to 3? So basically this would mean we get Gears 1-2 and 3 again on X1? I sure hope i misunderstood that. Either a brand new Gears game, or rather a new IP or gtfo.

the problem is.. yes right now they could achieve those graphics with one or two scenes but will they be able to keep up that detail when/as the whole game is created?

Forza 5 downgrades come to mind
 
Stupid question, but how do you send a friend request?

Last night on BF4 I was playing Defused with a few random people and we were having a blast. I had work in the morning and wanted to send friend request to them all and had no idea how. Eventually I had to go into my recorded clips and watch a clip of when I was playing with them. I had to pause the clip, look at the BF4 HUB, write down their names, then go to the find someone under friends and type them all in.

There has to be an easier way than this.
 
you could have also check your battle reports from battlelog

but yeah there doesnt seem to be recently played players list
 
You guys might not like the negative media attention the One is getting, but there are some flaws with the software and it's good to be constructive when pointing out that there were some missteps/hurdles when designing new software for a new console. MS has admitted this and they are going to fix them in time. If you're not having any issues or don't care, that's fine, but don't downplay the issues, they are there.

Do certain media sites need to be that snarky and sensational with their headlines? No.
