I'm having a blast with KI. I went ahead and bought the ultimate add on pack. Played a little of the classic KI. Man how times have changed.

How do you access your Download History (or purchase history) now? I'm not sure all my LE car packs for Forza 5 downloaded and I'd like to re-download it, but can't figure out how.

F that game. Worst one in the series on PS3. Got anything else?

So does the HDMI In do passthrough if the Xbox is off? Or does the Xbox always need to be turned on if you want to use the HDMI In port?

edit: Nevermind, I don't care, I forgot it doesn't passthrough 5.1.

It doesn't pass through when the Xbox is off. That was a major Day One bummer.

I guess that's why it was free then

I don't think I have anything else lying around...do you even have a KI code?

Yeah, and it's why I won't be using it for the TV functions at this point in time.

Amazon already processed my replacement. Took about 5 minutes through chat, and I'll have it on Tuesday. Not bad. Although they said the guaranteed delivery date may be inaccurate.

re: Xbox One: S $249 Now / X $499 November 7 2017

So I tried all my games except Ghosts.

Ryse- 7.5 out of 10. Definitely repetitive, but that's not always a bad thing. Still early in the game. Looks great.

NBA 2k14- 9 out of 10. A lot of fun, and looks great, too. So much different than the 360 version. Loading times suck, though.

Assassins Creed IV- 8.5 out of 10. Fun so far, better than the last one. Looks pretty good as well.

Forza 5- 8 out of 10. Not that into car games, a bit difficult. But looks awesome.

Dead Rising 3- 8.5 out of 10. A lot of fun and a huge world compared to the previous games.

Lego Marvel- 8 out of 10- silly fun, like all the Lego games. Looks the same as the 360 version.

Madden 25- 7.5 out of 10. Looks good, but pretty much the same game as the 360 outside of graphics. I did notice they have the 49ers farewell to Candlestick logo on the field and the 360 version didn't have it.

I'm not sure if I'll even keep Ghosts. Anyone liking it? I hated Black Ops 2.

I experienced the same thing. I snapped while playing Forza and all pressing A did was go full screen to the TV.

Yeah, I don't understand the snap thing now. I wanted to be able to have a simple game in the side window while watching Netflix or vice versa but nothing is working like that.

I am kind of unsure what is even snappable - let alone useful and snappable.

I thought that was the idea? That doesn't work?

I'm enjoying the system even more then I thought I would. A few questions I have that maybe I'm missing.

Any way to eject a disc using voice commands?

Any way to see the battery life of the controller?

Double-tap the Xbox button to switch focus back and forth between the two applications you're running. When the focus is on the game, you can play it.

I forget the voice command, but there is one.

Well, that makes sense.

I thought the snapping only worked on downloaded games, and not disc based. I remember reading that somewhere.
