    Don't be surprised, I don't have hidden agendas.... Maybe the games on PS never appealed to me, except for Shadow of the colossus... That game was awesome..... But other than that there is nothing that really catches my attention. Not that there aren't great games on PS.... There are... We know the titles of those games. Or who knows, maybe I'm more of a game fan than an actual game-r.... I rarely have time to play games now but I love watching reviews and retro games stuff..... Weird...

    It is supposedly only temporary. If Microsoft doesn't crush Sony in sales this Holiday season, that would be terrible for XBox.

    If they were selling a Master Chief Collection bundle, I'd definitely be buying (hopefully a retailer will offer a game with purchase of XBox1).

    Always liked what both Sony and MSFT have offered, but I'm gonna say that XBONE is runnin' the show right now with quality exclusives.

    On another note, I've played my WiiU a lot more than my XBONE.

    Feel you on that. Work 8-5 and other interests... Gotta really pluck out the best to spend time on. I still love to keep up with the industry and check out the review scene.

    I'm not sure anyone said otherwise, nor why that would be 'a problem'. ?

    Sorry I didn't mean to imply that you did. It's a problem for me, I want the in-game graphics to look like that. :)

    Do not buy Call of Duty. That's all I'm going to say.

    i saw some of the black friday deals for xbox one...i assume those are without the kinect as part of the system?

    does that render the console meaningless? or it still worth a look even without kinect?

    Has anyone seen a 1 TB HD Xb one that isn't part of a bundle and comes with the kinect?

    Or one that is part of the bundle and still comes with the kinect. The bundles I've seen haven't had the kinect.

    Kinect is weak unless you got kids or want to play motion detector games. When I had the kinect on it only detected me in the room half the time to turn on the console

    This cod is way better than the ghosts edition crap. It's more of a mixture of cod and halo. Since it gives you the jumping ability , double boost jump etc.

    I don't have the kinect and I'm doing just fine. There are times that I wished I had it, but it's honestly not necessary.

    Also, I see that there is no thread for Assassin's Creed Unity. Am I the only one playing it?

    SO....

    I played nba live 15 last night. Through EA accesses 6 hours trial. And.... It's really not that bad, I actually had some good fun playing it. No it's not as good or realistic as 2k15 but it's still a fun basketball game and the faces are done really well, the overall game play is MUCH improved, it's just still sort of raw. One thing I really appreciate is how they changed Dwight Howard's hair cut, it's a very small detail but idk I appreciate how they took their time to update it. 2k will have a players hair cut wrong for up to 2 whole years and EA changed it with in a week of releasing the game, straight class. Also the ESPN set up is sweet, the create a superstar mode is fun and easy to hop into unlike all of 2k's mycareer unnecessary bull **** corny cut scenes.

    I also played the dragon age inquisition EA access 6 hour trial and that game is FUN! I'v never been into the the wizard and dragon RPG type games (besides skyrim) but I legit couldn't put the controller down playing that game, definitely will take a hard look and picking that one up, even with my pockets being stretched lately with all the new big releases.

    BTW just to add in on the current topic I don't use the Kinect for ****, that thing is burred in my closet. The only time I got it out was to try to scan my face into 2k15 and that went absolutely horribly.

    Kinect is nearly worthless, don't waste your money on it unless you absolutely have to have it.

    I don't think there are any motion games in the pipelines and the Kinect motion lag seems worse than the 360 imo. This is based on the Kinect Sports game on Xbone vs the Kinect Sports game on 360.

    i had fun with the first kinect for a brief period.. playing bowling and the field goal contest was my favorite but the allure of the kinect wore off quickly, there simply isnt any games worth buying for it outside of the party sport games, and everything that does come out on it seems a bit gimmicky..
