Peggle 2 is no longer a launch title, but will be coming "a few weeks later in December."

Son of a FUCKING BITCH PREORDER CANCELLED

Actually after reading that it sounds like it was never a launch title to begin with.

Microsoft is advertising HARD during tonight's Walking Dead episode. The Surface, the One, branded game commercials... at least one per break, sometimes more.

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

Did anyone else get an email from Xbox about Forza 5 with a code for a DLC Audi car? Mine came today with this description:



Forza Motorsport 5 doesn't come out until November, but you can start filling your garage on day one. Use the code below to unlock the 2010 Audi Forza Motorsport R8 5.2 FSI quattro—with a special livery and custom tuning package—to use in-game for free.**


** Xbox One and Forza Motorsport 5 game required to use downloadable content. Account on Xbox required to download content. Promotional one-time-use code valid for named recipient of this email only in the 50 United States, including Washington, D.C. Promotional code is nontransferable and not redeemable for cash. Subject to Xbox Live system requirements and Terms of Use at www.xbox.com/live.
The thing is - the code is a 25 digit code but not redeemable or showing as valid on www.xbox.com . I'm wondering if it's something you have to enter in-game. If so, that's fine (though a little stupid to send out the email three weeks before you could possibly enter the code), but at very least they should have given proper instructions on how the code was redeemed.

Anyone else get the email and code? Were you able to redeem the code online or on the 360 console?

How did you get the code? Sign up? Pre-order?

How did Xbox know you preordered the game, if you did?

It just showed up in my inbox, From : Xbox < [email protected] >

I did preorder the Limited Edition from Amazon, but there's no way that Xbox.com knows that.

No doubt.. It's already tracking people before they have it in their home.

What does this even mean?

I want to retort but have no idea where you're coming from on this one.

I meant that the new Kinect is so good at spying on him that it's doing so before it's even in his home.

I thought my response to chuck's post would have given away what he meant.

Not surprising, TWD is the highest rated 18 - 49 non-football show on TV.

Looks like I will be able to afford a Day One X1 after all! The issue now is finding one in stock on the 22nd. Im hoping to find a pre order pop up somewhere like the ones did at Gamestop a few days ago.

For me, that is seriously the most exciting next-gen news I've heard since all of this started. I'm not even kidding.

I think I'd be down with another Viva Pinata. Hopefully it's some sort of sequel and not a kart racing spinoff.

Oh man. I am all about another Viva Pinata.

Even cooler would be if there was a Kinect capable mini-game that let the kids play with the pinatas like in Kinectimals.
