Thinking of buying an Xbox One

TriGgA AnDrEw · Apr 4, 2014

If your thinking about buying an xbox one let me put it simply DONT. I was a die hard xbox fan had the 360 since the week it come out and when I heard about the xbox one I had to get it, and since I've had I've need nothing but disappointed with it. A
lot of the time it keeps randomly signing me out of xbox live, 500gb sounds like a lot of memory but you actually get about 300gb spare which isn't hard anything when you have to install the whole game to your XboxOne one and on the subject of installing I
spent £50 to buy dead rising 3 online and it's currently 7am here and I've been installing it since 4pm yesterday and it's on 9% and my internet connection is fine we used to run about 4-6 wireless devices at once but now with the xbox one one I can't even
use my iphone properly without it freezing on the Internet the xbox one is the biggest waste of money anyone could ever spend absolutely disgusted with it will be getting rid of it as soon as I can.

Dont know what could cause this, but i currently have 8 digitally purchased games, and 7 of them was downloaded and installed in between 20-40 mins, depending on size.

Only one that took a long time was Ryse.

One thing when buying digitally is that there are potentially three things that happens at the same time.

Main game being downloaded, Updates/patches being downloaded and Game being installed and updated/patched.

Btw, you can start a download and turn off the xbox (if using instant on) and the download will continue even when turned off.

As for the size of the hdd, yes it will become too small fast. But external hdd support are expected in may/june.

I remember the first 360 had 20gb hdd with a lot less available, so this is just how it works. The PS4 has the same 500gb, bigger console hdd are coming, probably by the end of the year too.

This just in! Up to 6 gamertags can be on an Xbox One family. Only the gamertag who uses the console as their "home" has to have gold. They can "share" it with the other 5 "silvers" who can play mp and do anything else
a "gold" member can do. You're welcome.

I'm not a silver. I changed my gamertag a few months ago and it never updated on the forums. Not sure how that has anything to do with what I said though? But it's down to what games you like. I'm a fan of the Infamous games and I've already completed TLOU
on the PS3 but happy to replay it again on the PS4.
