Xbox One

I will probably end up with Forza, and then let my daughter pick out a game. I am waiting on Ryse and DR3.
 
Bought mine at WalMart at midnight last night. I was the 6th person in line, and they had 7 in stock. I did the opposite of what everybody else was doing (GameStop and Best Buy).

I was tempted to run by Wal-mart just to see what they had this morning at 4:30 when I got off work. That's what I would have been down to had I not pre-ordered it a couple days ago off Amazon.

I guess Amazon has a warehouse in Memphis? Initially the email said it would arrive the 25th. Last night I get one saying it shipped and will be here today. So I'm just sitting at my house waiting. Will probably pick up Forza later today.
 
Question if anyone knows:

When I transfer my live account over to the XB1, can I still play the 360 online also?

Same thing for BF4. Can I keep playing on 360 even after I move to XB1 (I have a couple friends that arent upgrading yet) and still make progress with my soldier?
 
Just ordered mine from the Microsoft store as apparently they've gotten more in stock. Not sure when it ships, though, but I'm not in a hurry.

Yes. XBL will be universal. You'll be able to play 360. You can also chat and send messages to 360 people from the X1 as well.

I know they have one in Louisville. I think it's Nashville because mine didn't even ship until yesterday afternoon, yet it delivers today.
 
I hope for everyone's sake it is minor. That way if you do have issues you can get your system back quickly.

I just don't want to deal with it at all. The hassle of sending it in and waiting 2 weeks to get it back. That's all I ever did with my 1st gen 360. Don't wanna deal with it again.

My wife ordered one through Amazon, will arrive Saturday before 8:00PM, according to tracking info........
 
For anyone else looking to get one, keep trying the Microsoft store. That'll be the best place to check for the next couple of days.

This is my first time buying any first gen game console. Always waited a min of 8-12 months before ps2/ps3/360.

Succumbed to peer pressure from my friends I play online with.

They know I've voiced numerous hesitations. Hope I don't regret it.
 
Well it is setup. I just eliminated a receiver, 360 and a blu-ray player in the living room (it was a win win situation... the wife liked getting rid of all the "extra cords"). Gaming wise neither is better, it just depends on the games you want and/or the friends you play with. I haven't bought a game for mine yet but tested out Forza at a friends house earlier today, and it is beautiful. However, my main gaming machine will be the PS4.

as a receiver, does it have dual zone capability, so you could run outdoor patio speakers or TV through it

Still look like they're available from the Microsoft Store. There is also a $699 bundle that looks pretty good. Might return my earlier purchase for this deal :)
