Unless it senses that and as a result will not let you use your XBoxOne.Quote:

are you suggesting that we buy a ps4, and put a cardboard box over it, painted like a Xbox1?Quote:

Hey, just offering a suggestion, if someone doesn't want to deal with the camera or mic, block them off. It's better than just incessantly bitching and moaning about it.Quote:

Rainbow 6: Patriots
Brother in Arms: Furious Four
League of Legends
Can't stand the thought of it always listening to me, but with a lineup like that, I'd have to bite the bullet, buy the thing, and then find a way to make sure it doesn't hear me. :D
Personally, I'll be shocked if those are all there.
Also, according to the same source, Dead Rising 3 will be a Xbox exclusive. On the flip side, Dragon's Dogma 2 will be a PS4 exclusive.
I wanna see Rainbow 6
I need some next gen Fallout and Elder Scrolls. I would let MS spy on me to get more Fallout.
I'm surprised they'd have a new main Halo so soon after Halo 4, but it would make sense to have one available at launch. If anything, at least Halo: Spartan Assault.
Could always reveal them both, then release a remastered Halo 2 at launch and Halo 5 the following year. It wasn't too long ago Microsoft expressed interest in making Halo an annual release. There's also been rumors swirling around of a Halo 4 release for the One that would be cross compatible with 360 users, but I don't know how accurate that truly is. Seems like a complete waste of time and resources to me, but who knows.
So much for that one rumor:
SourceQuote:
Available this July for $6.99 ERP only on Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8, “Halo: Spartan Assault” is the first top-down action shooter that brings a “Halo” video game to touch-based devices. Developed by 343 Industries in conjunction with Vanguard Games, “Halo: Spartan Assault” provides an accessible, pick-up-and-play experience for fans and newcomers alike.
Yikes.
Well, that's one Halo game I'll never play. Don't have a Windows phone or Windows 8, and I don't want either of them.
I wonder if current Live subscriptions carry over from 360 to XB1 :D I just got another year for $20 through that eBay deal.

The company has also confirmed to Polygon that your Xbox Live Gold account will be shared across the Xbox One and Xbox 360, and multiple household members will be able to share the same subscription but with different accounts.
Good thing, too. I'm good through November 2016. I wouldn't have been too pleased if I had to cough up more money.
I'm good until something like next March. Never had to pay a single cent on Live. Just get a new 12 month card from my sister every year for Christmas. I'm good to go each and every year on Live. Only money I spend is on buying games digitally with straight money or buying MS points for stuff.
Damn. Maybe I shoulda bought more than one :DQuote:

:D Same here. I ended up overall with something close to 10k points when I was all done.
Oh course, a lot of those points quickly disappeared when I bought a couple things I had been meaning to, and then blew the rest on song and pack purchases for Rocksmith. I still have probably another 6,000+ MS points worth of songs and packs that I want to buy.
Never cared for song DLC on games like Rock Band or Guitar Hero, but with Rocksmith, since I can actually play my real bass guitar on the game and actually learn to play the actual songs on a real guitar, buying the songs and song packs are worth it in this case.
I just spent 1600 :msp: on State of Decay :nod: wish it was 4:30 so I could play it.
game whores you all are
Fixed it for you. ;)Quote:

Plus, disregarding the camera and mic with Kinect, they'd be able to collect data from your PS4 just the same as the XB1. Not sure what the whole point of that post was. If they can/could do it to the XB1, they can/could do it to the PS4, so it's all a wash.Quote:

I don't see any protests at Verizon HQ today or a mass of people turning in their Verizon cell phones.
Also, it is true that the Government could collect PMs; video game stats; etc... from the PS4. However, if you feel that's the same as the Government being able to listen to you and see you in your home thanks to Kinect more power to you just don't be surprised when down the road it gets leaked that the Federal Government has been collecting and storing videos of XB1 users and using them in all sorts of ways (Tax Audits; Criminal Investigations; etc...)
I think we can all move on from the 'big brother' mentality... anyone who cares already knows whether to consider it a concern. At this point, it's just wait and see what E3 brings.
More on XB1 controller....
