Anyone else having regrets? Feeling ignored? I am. (truth sorry, read before you judge)

No regrets, I was prepared and expecting the system to not be 100%(Linux and Android are my primary operating systems after all), but the kinect works best for me when I'm talking in a normal tone, amazes me when I say a command while the volume is up and
it still seems to respond really well.

---

It will get much better as the updates come out, but I understand that is also the problem.

 

Lmao, comparing talking to the Kinect to a child.

I have no regrets with the console, playing some of my new favorite games is my first priority and that is the best part.

Sure, certain apps/features aren't there, but we should all be aware that they are working on most of it.

Edit: Most of your post is just whiny drivel. You sound like one of those self entitled people who have absolutely zero patience. You want games for gold already? You bought everygame what are you going to get for free then?

I didn't see it that way at all. And "self-entitled" is a way-overused term on this forum. It's like the catch all term for anyone with any issue.

 

OP, I have to ask: what about all of your games? I know you're not happy with the console & its features, but what about all of the games you said you purchased? Are they at least fun & make the console worth something? Outside of saying you purchased ALL
of them (which is about 20+ games), you never bothered to mention them again - I find that quite odd to say the least. Despite all of the issues you may have with the console, I'd think that that many games would be more than enough to keep you entertained
despite the issues. Am I wrong?

 

The 360 is still ahead of the one. Easier to navigate. Real headsets. Larger population...which is why it is still getting more attention than the one. Give it a year or two. They will have updates, work out all the bugs and slowly start to put more
and more of their resources towards the one. We should have expected it, but we are dreamers. I went back to my 360 for the time being with certain games. We probably wont see what these machines are capable of for 3-4 years. I imagine it will take developers
a couple years to really get the hang of the new system.....then another 2 years to develop an amazing next gen game. lol

 

Play oblivion and then play skyrim. Play Battlefield 2 and then play Battlefield 4. Play Condemed, gun and the other 360 launch titles and compare them to GTA V, Red Dead Redemption, Tomb Raider, Batman, Fall out 3, Bioshock Infinite, ect. Do you remember
the red ring debacle? Or how glitchy certain games were back on 360 launch? Launches always have issues but there is a lot to look forward to. In a few months we will probably have our minds blown with Titanfall, Watch Dogs, The Crew, The Division, Destiny,
Dying Light and the like. I wouldn't get too down on the one yet.

 

No regrets at all here. How does so many have issues with kinect. Recalibrate the kinect mine hears me no problem.

 

Only regret I have is purchasing NFS: Rivals digitally.

 

"WWE network is for everything but Xbox One"

They stated it will be released this summer. Not sure why but, it will be released.

 

Apps like Crunchyroll are not made by Microsoft, they are made by their own content owners/developers, I'm sure there are many new apps in the works but we will just have to wait until they are ready. As far as games for gold, Microsoft has already said
there will be something like that on the Xbox one, but again we will have to wait as Microsoft can't just give away brand new games during their release window, especially from third party games.

 

No regrets BUT.. The X1 does seem somewhat less next-Gen in comparison to the 360 launch and yes the Xbox original also. BUT.. I also believe the X1 will get better with time. I'm just so damn impatient.

 

"The xbox one seems less next gen than the original xbox"????

-

Where does this kind of thinking even come from????

Not if you're playing the games.

 

in all fairness, i have an XBL friend. his IRL friends were trying to convince him to get a PS4. saying how the X1 is crap and how they will all have a PS4 its better and cheaper blah blah. He decided to be smart, not listen and make up his own mind and
decided to get an X1. now his IRL friends are jealous and upset they didn't get an X1 and they brought into teh hype. Everyone is different

 

Man... for your gripe about them wanting you to have WIndows 8... that is a crappy way to try to get you to move over. And yeah, I agree with you about I want a UI appropriate for a PC/laptop, not for a tablet (if I wanted a tablet I'd buy one. Actually
I have one my mom passed down to me and I barely use it). As a Mac user I'll admit I kinda feared that Apple was going to do to Mac OS what Windows did to Windows OS (and was annoyed WIndows did it first cause they were my backup plan if Apple did ruin Mac
OS that way. Windows 7 from what I hear sounded decent as from what I understand it was like XP but improved. I guess I'll have to learn Linux if Apple does that). Hey, at least Mac upgrades are cheap/free (too bad the computers are neither cheap nor free
).

Honestly, not surprised though. That's kinda why I avoid MS. They are so used to having a monopoly that they are used to just pushing you to do what they want rather than convincing you. Do it our way or what else are you going to do? They make some decent
stuff. I liked Windows XP (had a main computer that was XP for years and was happy with it) and their Flight Sim used to be good (They ruined that turning it into freemium.... grrrrr). And nothing beats Excel (Word sucks though. Too bad everyone uses it).
My xbox 360 is fine except for MS's BS policies (I just use it for single player games cause no way am I going to endorse their crap with Live Gold. They can gimp my machine all they want, I'm not going to pay their BS fee. I already paid for the xbox, I shouldn't
have to pay a "rental" fee as well. Only reason MS doesn't charge you for single player games too is then it would be too obvious that you paid for the privledge of renting the xbox from MS if they didn't allow you to do at least something with the device
you just bought without paying an extra ongoing fee. You know, MS is so ridiculous with Live Gold I can't even reply to people's PMs since I'm not a Gold member? WHat's more offensive is fine, don't give me PMs, but then don't allow people to PM me so I can't
even reply back!! I think that is honestly what really pushed me over the edge about Live Gold).
