That's SO-O-O-O-O Microsoft.
wtf. Thanks MSFT for allowing me to get it earlier

So you can get a 3 year warranty from MS for $69.99 w/in 45 days of purchase: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-o...epair/complete

I may do this just based on their track record of systems in the past.

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.

I like when boogie (I can't believe I just called a grown man "boogie") calls himself a stand-up comedian. I'm sure he's hilarious with his GAF references and Xbone smackdowns.

That seems really expensive to insure a $500 item for 3 years. I think the PS4 is $40 for comparable coverage.

square trade's is $35 for 2 years, which is slightly cheaper if you prorate it for the years you are getting it, but then you aren't dealing a company who didn't make the machine.

That was a fantastic video. This is the Major that everyone fell in love with(?) all those years ago long before he was a corporate stooge. Just a normal guy talking shop. Fantastic bit of viral marketing too.

I haven't listened to his podcast in years, but back when he first started he used to talk about Nintendo and Sony games. He was just another gamer who happened to work at MS. He's long since turned into Xbox employee who happens to have a platform.

Ontario, CA. That's where my XO still is, and has been since Saturday. I have a strong feeling it's not going to be in my hands up here, north of the border, by Friday.
