It's crazy because 2 million sounds like peanuts but in Japan it's actually pretty significant.

This comment x 1000.

It really really sucks when you can't read a review that doesn't have the extra undertone (or message) being displayed. Why can't we just read about the damn game anymore.

Thats exactly the thought process in this piece. $199 is way too much. Even $99 on a PlayStation TV is pushing it to be honest.

"bundles and other points-only items" according to the screen shot.

I think the most concerning thing is the inclusion of points-only items this time around.

Agreed. He's definitely one of the more respectable people in the MS camp and knows what the challenge he's facing. He's going to surprise people when he starts locking down more exclusive content and pushing for new Ip. Gamers should be excited about this move especially.

I think you're reading it wrong. It doesn't talk about Forza being 60fps on Xbox One because of DX12. At all.

The post doesn't deny that Forza doesn't already run at 60fps on Xbox One.

It says that it runs at a "Static" 60fps on Direct X 12 (a PC api).

Direct X12 is headed to Xbone this year, and according to what was said, games could benefit from that.

From the MS Blog:
"By porting their Xbox One Direct3D 11.X core rendering engine to use Direct3D 12 on PC, Turn 10 was able to bring that console-level efficiency to ...

On Gamestop's site, it says the 30% only applies to games...

The asterisk refers to software. You can read the details at the bottom. Xbox One is ONLY ineligible for the additional %10 power up rewards points. It fully qualifies for the additional %50 percent trade offer.

Ive had a couple of friends trade in standard edition consoles towards a special edition one. The red xbox 360 for Resident Evil comes to mind actually as one of them.

"the notorious hacker group" known as the notorious hacker group. Is this for real?

You can get the game for as low as $20 if you go digital with PS3 or 360 version. I'm not defending the pricing but there are multiple tiers. And if you're playing this for the actual experience / story I feel that the platform shouldn't matter.

And if you're lucky, maybe even as soon as this month ;).

I wonder how quick this gets patched up.

I know a handful of people who tried their luck on a PS4 last week this way and it worked. Meanwhile I reserved mine right after the announcment. The more the merrier but damn, lol, wish I knew there wasn't such a rush.

This × 1000. After playing KZSF, 1080p is the true differentiator, for now at least.

It's saying that Pachter thinks cable companies will eat the upfront cost of the console for potential subscribers. Kind of like when a cell phone carrier "gives" you a cell phone on contract (or provides it at a much lower cost). It would make sense given Xbox One's approach to TV.

Really? C'mon it's 2013.

You know what, you're right. If you make videogame avatars of the same sex kiss, it will totally make you a homosexual. /s
