I liked the Boogie video. Well done. Smart P.R., Microsoft.
Every time I see a review or impression of the One, it seems so Kinect-focused in all its features that I worry the system will be barely functional without one connected to it.

Both my One and my replacement PS4 shipped from Amazon almost simultaneously tonight. PS4 guaranteed delivery tomorrow, One guaranteed Friday. I'm going to keep tracking them and cheering them on as they race from the warehouse to my office. It's like one of those animated scoreboard races they have during timeouts at sporting events.

To be fair, I DID get my Surface Pro (which also shipped from the fake Ontario in California) in less than 2 business days, so it's possible my XO gets here on Friday, but I'm now tempted to go to BB tomorrow at midnight just because. I have a preorder card that they were giving out like poisoned candy... but it's not for a Day One console... I think.

I keep hoping that Amazon will go ahead and ship my console in an effort to reduce the load on their servers from all the refreshing I've been doing for about 24 hours now.

That Major Nelson/Boogie video was a nice treat. I really dig Major Nelson and he seems to be one of the few real personable faces of Microsoft or of any gaming company. I know the ranting and raving that Boogie is mostly for show but if I were a major corporation I would probably blow the guy off. Instead this guy made out huge(not a fat joke) when it came to console launches this month.
My XBOX says shipping soon. My PS4 made a super speedy trip so I guess this system will see the same fast service. My HDMI splitter arrived today and my XBOX game will be here tomorrow. This time I'll have my wife on alert so this system doesn't spend 5 hours on the front porch because UPS couldn't be bothered to knock.

"Not yet shipped" on all of the above for me. I must live next door to a warehouse that I just haven't spotted out my window yet.

how to get the Xbox One to output surround sound with the HDMI input device: http://kotaku.com/how-to-get-your-ca...box-1468565797
i guess it is in beta, and hard to find in the menus, so that is why people didn't know what was going on.

Just wanted to wish good luck and happy-free-of-issues-gaming with the Xbox One to all fellow DVD Talkers. Probably check back and read the "reviews" later.

I'm sure he does...it's smart to know the competition.
Still waiting for my Amazon order to ship, but they did upgrade me to overnight yesterday.

My X1 shipped yesterday late morning... it's in Virgina (a mere 7 hours away). I wonder if there's any chance in the world it makes it to my porch today??

I'm looking forward to hearing everyone's impressions of the system. This will be the first home console I haven't bought at launch since the Jaguar.

Prediction time?
Ryse - 2.5 Stars out of 5 or 5 out of 10 for Good looks and shit gameplay
Forza 5 - 4 Stars out of 5 or 8.5 out of 10, business as usual
Crimson Dragon - 4 Stars out of 5, 8.5 out of 10, Shining star of launch
PowerStar Golf - 3 Stars out of 5, 6 out of 10, Fun, nothing great
Dead Rising 3 - 3.5 Stars out of 5, 7.5 out of 10, Fun, with some graphic hitches.
Killer Instinct - 3.5 Stars out of 5, 7.5 out of 10, Fun if you are a fan, good looks.
No rhyme or reason, just giving my fortune teller skills a little test! lol...
