When I bought this thing on Monday it was a spur of the moment decision just because Gamestop happened to have them in stock when I went to buy a Vita:ehh:

I honestly have never been interested in anything kinect related and haven't used my 360 at all really since Halo 4 came out and sucked ass:leostare:

But even though the interface is buggy as shyt, with the snap feature being laggy as hell and me having to repeat myself 3 and 4 times just to complete simple commands I still am blown away by how useful and innovative this TV shyt can be a year or two down the line once they iron out the kinks:takedat:

The controller is amazing, way better than that husky ass 360 controller :ohlawd: (but not better than the DS4)

Ryse is fukking beautiful :to:

The User Interface and layout is cool, I like all the new high resolution gamer pics they've supplied for people to use

I'm really enjoying this purchase....

Next week after krimmuh I'll go out and find the Forza Limited Edition and DR3 and probably an extra controller

But thats basically my short 72 hour review brehs, I'm a sworn Playstanley who is actually enjoying the X1 :ld:

If you are having to repeat yourself multiple times, you should probably re-calibrate the kinect. Make sure your volume is turned up very loud when you do it.

After a good calibration I almost never have to repeat myself anymore

that work? Your brother is going to be mad. He must have purchased it under your account or something unless the family share plan is back!
The first system that downloads the game should have the rights, so they both can eat.
What happened there is what I'd recommend if the opportunity presents itself. People did it all last gen :manny:
Yeah I'm still trying to beat DR3 I'm on the last chapter now. I'm gonna trade dr3 and Ryse in this weekend and I'll get AC3 and Max.

Halo wars coming soon too. Xbox early adopters are eating good right now:banderas:
I wish Halo Wars was coming out soon :to:
Spartan Assault is still a very stellar game. It almost looks like Halo Wars to a degree
But gameplay, nothing alike.. sorry :yeshrug:

You have a ways to go then bruh. Make sure you download the speech tutorial and there is a system tutorial that you need to check out. Then make sure you understand that these features will take YOU some time to get down. If you know the command and how to say it, you won't have much trouble. Its how you say things that will determine how it ultimately works. I'm two weeks in, and I fly thru menus now.

Plus the recent update made it so you don't have to say "Xbox, command... Xbox, command" as often. Now you can say Xbox, command... command.... command" for most things.
I bet you didn't know you could pin anything to the dashboard, or when you use the web browser you can speak the name of a website by saying "browse to, google.com" and thats what will load up.
Its not perfect, but you can save the site as a favorite, then change the name to something Kinect will understand easier. Like so...

Some Of You Guys Might Know This Already But I Was Ignorant To It So I'll Share Just Incase Anyone Else Is

I Was Always Annoyed That I Can Turn My XBOX On & Off By My Voice But With The TV I Kept Having To Grab The Remote

Well In The Settings Theres An Option That Lets You Turn BOTH Of Them On & Off With Your Voice

Is BF4 fixed, so I can play the story without a reset, I know a patch or two has went out, but has that been fixed?
