I get the whole allure with one unit doing it all. What do you do when it breaks though, which it inevitably will. I have one word that will help you understand why I am so sure it will and at same time exemplify Microsoft's product testing abilities...Windows. They release unfiinished product into the wild and hope they can fix the problems that arise from large scale issues. Also, imagine drop 600 on something for a 90 day waurantee? That is why I have a 360 instead of a PS3. Again I say, we are fucked!

Oh, Forza 5 has metal flake paint. I guess its worth the risk now.

cloud will never break down to were you will lose your content, google search the cloud and you can see the facility they old these hard drives in, say one gos out the others take the memories on it and pit it in other hard driver, if you get to see pic of the facility you will see why its crazyyyy, the xbox its self probably will have bugs, lets hope they dont push production to fast.

That's why I have to reserve judgment. I had heard they were going to be adding Codemasters into the equation with Forza5, but the teaser does not seem to confirm this. That's not a good sign. They both can learn from each other.

yes they have if you go on forza page on face book or there fourm site it says. and yes ik we dont know what the developers will do with this extra space, yes some will hit spot on, and others wont.

CRAP-OLA!

by **Owen0501** 5/27/2013, 4:45 am

Damn, I now know the answer to one of my questions!

Will my XBL Arcade games transfer over? NO! To make matters worse, none of my Xbox 360 games will work as MS has confirmed that Xbox One WILL NOT play Xbox 360 games! WTF???

by Guest 5/27/2013, 5:59 am

Think Harry and Sniper have this one nailed. I'll be enjoying F1 and Forza4 and hopefully GRID2 for a while into 2013, until the x one comes way down and the new F1 comes out.

by **Owen0501** 5/27/2013, 6:34 am

I'll be with you. And by the way Microsoft has confirmed that Xbox 360 controllers WILL NOT work on the Xbox one! Still not 100% if that also means Fanatec wheels!!

So why would I buy it? Forza 5 isn't that much of an incentive!!

by **Sniper919** 5/27/2013, 1:41 pm

Xbox also confirmed that all pre-owned games will require a fee to play on a different console. Its another example of the money grubbing scummers at microsoft. PS4 might be the way I go.

by **luongo27** 5/27/2013, 2:04 pm

I comes down to which ends up being better GT6 of Forza 5 for me as that is where a lot of time will be spent.

by **Owen0501** 6/10/2013, 2:04 pm

£429 UK and $499 US - go suck one!

by Guest 6/10/2013, 2:07 pm

not too bad......

by **Owen0501** 6/10/2013, 2:24 pm

I'm sorry, but or that amount of money I want it to replace my 360 not sit next to it!

by **Bondzai** 6/10/2013, 2:26 pm

$500 is cheap. I'll get one at Christmas.

by Guest 6/10/2013, 2:29 pm

That is what I am saying.

by **Owen0501** 6/10/2013, 3:12 pm

£429 equals $670 - might be cheap for you guys but that ain't cheap here!!

Sadly I'll still end up getting one but not on release

by **LethalHoudini** 6/10/2013, 5:01 pm

Hey Owen you know what Im going to suprise you n not mention any Scouse references LMAO.

by **Owen0501** 6/10/2013, 5:17 pm

by **Owen0501** 6/10/2013, 6:02 pm

On a positive note, MS announced a commitment to the 360 and the new version released today looks pretty slick!

by **TyrannicCymbals** 6/10/2013, 11:32 pm

by Guest 6/11/2013, 8:45 am

Now even though Sony blew Microsoft out of the water, I just don't think I can get a PS4. I'm still planning on getting the X1.

BF4 looks amazing!!!

by Guest 6/11/2013, 4:05 pm

I just dont like the 24hr online check in thats crap a dude like me lets the cable get turned of regularly to buy new car parts lol u guys know that lmao

by **Owen0501** 6/11/2013, 5:07 pm

My Internet was off for 3 weeks last year because of dumbass engineer put a spade through my cable. If that happens with Xbox 1 I'd be screwed!
