Go on.. you know you want to buy 100 of those so you can win a free Xbox One. ;)

Oh, just... THE INTERNET!
YOU WIN THE INTERNET! ALL OF IT!

"Press a tiny bit harder to register?"

I had no problems with any of the buttons when I played with the controller. The only issue I had with the controller when I played with the XDKs were software based (Call of Duty: Ghosts had a different controller scheme than the norm and I had to fight my way to the top of the leaderboard).

The "finger massage" was not the sort of feedback I was hoping for from the new vibration motors in the new controller (pun intended)

Lets get back to games. Man I wish MS would revive 1080 Snowboarding... oh wait, they have Amped.

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

But wouldn't you only get 720?

;)

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

I think the disappointing sales of the SSX reboot means we won't see a snowboarding game for a long, long time.

Amped 3 rules though.

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

yeah that's disappointing. Amped 3 was great. SSX had some really cool multi-player features. It's too bad more people didn't play it.

I agree, the whole resolutiongate going on is really, really stupid. I guess this is the reason people this generation will buy one system from the other. I thought we played games, not resolution and fps. What a boring and meaningless reason to buy a console. Buy a high end pc, that's what high resolution and fps are for.

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

I wonder if we'll see both snowboarding and skateboarding back soon at all.

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

That was the joke. :)

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

I think it can be important. For many people, 7 or 8 out of every 10 games they buy are going to be third party, and most of those will be available for both systems. If one console runs those games noticeably better, that could make the difference in which console to buy. Sure, there are exclusives, but those can be a toss-up depending on what games you like. So things like the processing power or even the controller can be the deciding factor.

Surprised to hear Ryse getting positive impression. Dead Rising 3 looks great but i still need to start 1 and 2 :lol:

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

...and.... pulled back in... :gah:

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

Just read that Killer Instinct will not have an Arcade mode at launch. Boooooo!!! They are waiting until all 8 characters are released before adding Arcade mode. We will get a Survival mode though, but stil...weak sauce.

Also, wtf do I get for $20? Just the six characters? The first 8? This free-to-play business model needs to die already. All it does is confuse and irritate people. Just let me but the whole damn game!

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

Wha?! How is that even possible not to include Arcade mode at launch? Man, constant disappointment coming from MS it seems like. Oh well, hopefully DR3 won't suck.

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

If you have to buy characters then it isn't Free-to-Play, it's Shareware. Free to Play only works if the entire game is accessible for free (ie - Candy Crush Saga and several of the MMOs).

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

Doubt it. Hell, there's most likely not even going to be a baseball game on a Microsoft system this year.

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

Sony seems to think that giving just a few characters for free in a fighting game and charging for the rest is "Free To Play".

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

Apparently MS and Sony agree there, though I don't know what you're linking to there.

Re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
 

Maybe it didn't come through right on browsers (I'm typing on an iPad). It was supposed to be a link to the PSN Store's Free To Play section which features DOA 5 Ultimate : Core Fighters. That's a bare-bones version of DOA 5 Ultimate which includes only a few characters and the rest are available for individual purchase.

Man I wish MS had sent me that KI email because I want the game, but not enough to pay full price for the upgrade. Maybe I'll hold out for a sale on that...
