I think it's just the day one patch.

No 3d Bluray playback, DUH....http://www.engadget.com/2013/11/09/xbox-one-ps4-3d-blu-ray-playback/

IGN has a longer look at the dash too.http://www.ign.com/videos/2013/11/08/xbox-one-dashboard-walkthrough

12 minute demo of the final ui. Better than expected, not exactly snappy but faster than last gen. Lots of kinect use... from the mic.

Yup.

Meh. http://www.theverge.com/2013/10/28/5037506/xbox-one-dashboard-demo-video

Sounds like launch UI is not that bad:http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/09/xbox-one-interface-a-clean-slate-inspired-by-windows-8/

the beta ui is fuuuuugly. http://www.engadget.com/2013/09/08/xbox-one-beta-dashboard-video-leak/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_campaign=Engadget&ncid=rss_semi

You are over thinking it. This is the ps3 for people who don't game and will only ever use it to stream and watch blurays.

No, it's like the Disney vault. If you get it in time it's yours to keep even when it goes away, but if you miss it, you miss it.

Ummmm.... http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/08/microsoft-refutes-conspiracies-about-xbox-one-drm-bait-and-switch/

/boggle Again, good luck with that. Also, the games I have enjoyed lately have done superb jobs with their DLC. Skyrim. Dishonored. Saints Row the third (And IV looks to be starting strong too). Borderlands 2. If you don't like the DLC don't buy it. If it's not on your system of choice...

Good luck with that.

You can now self publish on Xbox.Strong 20 game launch selectionBut no launch date announce yet....http://mjr.mn/17GHH4P

You guys know that if you pre-purchase you can download these big games weeks in advance and then you only get a small unlock code at midnight when they go live, right? Edwin brings up a good point about the take it or leave it situation tho, we have that now with EA vs. Steam. Because of it EA...

I specifically favored buying in my current town over others nearby due to FIOS availability, it wasn't a deal breaker but it WAS a consideration.

Fair enough Clinton. The question becomes how reasonable is it for the rest of the world to stop moving forward just because there are a (presumably large) percentage of folks in your position. As I said we aren't going to solve the digital divide via debate on HTF and those standing on either...

Steam's offline mode is designed to be initiated when network connectivity is established in preparation for an offline event. If you start it without connectivity yes there is pain.

Yeah, that's my reaction to all of these doomsday predictions too. It only takes one service to not be that stupid to kill all of the others from doing so.

We've long ago established that I am unabashedly anti-choice. :)

My understanding is that both systems will have 100% day one digital availability but I don't have links to support that.We aren't going to solve the digital divide on this forum but for me digital only isn't the future, it's been my way of living for 3+ years. "The future is already here, it!s...

"The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry"

Here's the thing, progress requires pain. Everyone gets pissy when apple kills off the floppy or skips Bluray to go all digital downloads but if you look BACK in time you realize they were the right decisions. The alternative is to keep yourself tied to the past and never break free from...

We'll see!

And boom all is right in Xbox land (they added a headset to the box yesterday):http://news.xbox.com/2013/08/xbox-one-digital-games-and-live-goldIf you buy a single disk based game not on close out pricing you are crazy.All digital, kill Gamestop, GO!
