When, Microsoft?

We will see those capabilities tomorrow. If not tomorrow check back on Tuesday. If not then just keep checking.

:)

 

When is this out?

I saw a couple of trailers for Destiny and it looks pretty cool...when is it out? I guess with it being from the guys who made Halo it should be a safe bet that it's a good game, right?

 

When is this out?

Activision has stated that it WILL NOT release before the end of 2013, so i'm hoping for a First Quarter '14 release? Though we don't know for certain. I'd be surprised if there doesn't end up being some form of public beta for us to get into, I mean it IS a persistent online world, so that's going to require more beta and bug testing then they could possibly manage internally.

It's a safe bet that it'll be a good shooter, it's NOT a safe bet that this whole persistent online world aspect will come to fruition in the ways they are telling us it will. It's quite an ambitious project, so a little skepticism is a healthy thing to have.

 

[quote user="Ominae"]When are we going to get the capabilities on the Xbox One that we had on the Xbox 360?[/quote]There has been no announcement as to when.

Use an app to push music to Xbox One.

In
the USA, it's illegal to rip video from copy-protected sources. There are virtually no legitimate video files that aren't DRM'ed, so unless you have a whole ton of content you created that you want to watch I'd keep the mention of your personal rips to yourself.

If you're outside the USA and it's legal to convert your video to something else then you just have to wait until MS feels it's something they should support.

Xbox One is quite good at content-friendly content consumption.

[quote user="Ominae"]My overall impression of the Xbox One? If you're looking for the machine MS hyped so relentlessly, it hasn't arrived yet. Right now it's top of the line harware that lacks the software to make use of it. [/quote]

Probably the truest thing that has ever been said about Xbone. I, however, disagree with the statements that it is a step backwards. The 360 has some functionality that the Xbone currently does not but the Xbone also has functionality the 360 does not. IMHO
Xbone is a giant leap forward from 360 and will bare that out. Plus it is an unfair comparison, decade (almost) old finished MS product to just launched MS product. Remember MS puts out a product the earliest they can call it "finished". Our motto as MS consumers
is (and I have seen it in someones signature on this site) we are all beta testers. If you wanted a "finished" Xbone you should have waited at least 1 year but probably more like 2 or 3 to buy one.

*edit* I am not mad *edit*

So you spent 500 dollars on a product believing that you would be beta testing it for possibly years to come until it returned features that we had for years on the older model?

I'm sure Microsoft loves people like you but unfortunately not all of us believe that you need to take two steps back for every step forward.

 

Everything MS releases is a beta. XP took years to attain it's glory. IMHO Windows 7 was the closest thing to a finished product MS has ever released and that was only because Vista was it's beta. I am not as naive as you make me out to be. I walked into
this purchase with eyes wide open. With MS I expect a little time for them to get up and running.

 

Patience is a virtue......

I guess this is why we keep getting unfinished products from them.

Unfortunately for Microsoft ( and EA ) I think people are getting fed up with that. I can think of no other product or tech that gives us less with the promise of more when buying their new product.

I guess I just have different expectations as a consumer. If the old product/tech did A, B, C I expect the new one to do A, B, C, D and be working on E. That to me is logical and as I look around my house that's how every other new product/tech that I own
works. I just don't understand why Microsoft gets a pass.

 

I know Randver it would be nice to have a finished product.

 

I hope X1 stays an unfinished product for as long as I own it. I'd hate to think MS would just release a console and not develop it any further over the next 8-10 years.

 

It's already happened for me just about to play a 360 game on my 360

 

Where is can you buy a product that gets better over time? Most products degrade over time.

Not in the tech world.

The video card in my PC gets better with every new driver, my racing wheel gets better with every firmware upgrade, Logitech KB with every software update, etc

Now my toaster will always be a toaster and won't get better over time but some products have the ability to improve built in and we should expect them to evolve.

 

Their ya go buddy. Looks like your catching on.

 

The vibration in the controllers! Need to be able to do that too. This whole system has been a bit of a let down.no streaming (without some shabby workaround). And my hands are killing me from the vibration. Can't turn it off in Battlefield! This used to
be a dashboard setting.
