I have a question about the mic that comes with the X1. How much sound does it pick up? Now with 360, the wireless earpiece picks sound up way too easily, therefore my friends will always hear my game sound from my surround set. How is this with the X1 headset? Is it better in that regard? Noise cancelling i think it's called?

From my experience the headset that comes with the Xbox One is almost flawless. You can hear people more clearly and there's less background noise. I haven't used it all that much but the few times i was talking to friends it was like they were right there next to me talking.

It's waay better than the 360 head set. Much much clearer, but it will still pick up other loud sounds. Most mics do this, even really good ones. Thats why recording artists record in sound booths.
 
Some deals at MicroCenter.

Yes, the other day I went to play diablo 3 with a buddyvof mine and the sound was just sad. It sound like what the ps4 sound like.

Yeah, the PS4's sound quality on the mic is about the same as the 360's. Sony always seems to be a generation behind. All hail the king of consoles. That PS Quad.
 
Hey. Did anyone else get an email from Bioware with a youtube video called, "You've been Chosen". Here's the video I got...




Whats this about? Anyone know?

Yes, I got one too. It's a new game from Bioware that they're going to announce at Gamescom.
 
cool wheels. I used to have wheels for 360, but it was too much effort to set up for play, so I sold it.
 
Seriously ? $400 and no clutch, f*** off Mad-Catz

Watch the video, says no lag. Everything does as it's sopposed to do just there's no shifting force feedback(as forza is made for pedal shifting) there is however "higher shift resistance mod" http://www.chilicoke.com/mods/shifterresistance.htm
They even have a DIY mod for you to do e-brake
 
Could someone please explain how the my friends console is set as mine and mine is his console. That way we can only get one digital copy of game and still play together? Don't have an X1 still, but just wanted to know.

He just needs to set your X1 as his home console and you set his X1 as your home console then everything you buy, he can download and play and vice versa.

Good to know. I wish mics would cancel all other sound and only pick up the voice, that way i could have my home cinema set on high volume whenever i want, haha.

You don't need to put a serial # or something it's just an option you pick in the console options menu?
 
Nope. Just sign in and go into settings to set it as your home console.
Also had a other question. As long I'm signed into my profile when I purchase a game digital on my friends console I own the game right or does he since I bought on his home console? Will I'll be able to play offline if I decided to make my console my home console.
