I'm sure you can queue it up and download it upon an eventual purchase.

So Dead Rising 3 is only 720p as well? Why not just call this Xbox 360 1.2?

What a brilliant strategy to get more XB1 sales. ;)

Not that it should matter, but the latest IGN preview says it's 1080p/30fps.

EDIT: And Eurogamer says it's 720p. Who the hell knows today.

:up:

If those ungrateful bastards only knew all the free PR work you've done for them this year...

If that ends up working like it does in that video, then I'll stop lamenting that there's no chatpad this gen.

yep. i hate entering codes because i can never get them to work online. entering them on the machine is a pita w/ the controller. if it is that easy, it'll be awesome. :up:

Whoa! That is going to be awesome. No more entering codes.

Wow, they already got the QR code scanning implemented. Looks nice.

:lol: at them using QR rather than Tag.

Do you think that's a difficult one to implement? Or were they giving that impression?

I just recall them saying its in their plans and a great idea. I assumed it would be patched in later.

I thought this was old news... like really old news. If it works like the scanning in Kinectimals keep your controller handy. If it works as advertised, then total :up:

However, how will they prevent people from just snapping a photo of all the cards in any given store and scanning from their phone? Similar activation required at the register as current point cards?

Absolutely. Anything less would be idiotic on their part. So chances are, they'll screw it up. :)

720p + 360 (xbox) = 1080p Xbox

Totally misleading. It doesn't show him grab the Kinect out of his trash can first. That easily takes an extra 3 to 5 minutes, depending on how much rotten banana sludge you have to wipe off of it.

Try again. Everyone knows that you already have one at home, Mr. I-Promise-I'm-Not-An-MS-Plant!
