After not really needing a not really next gen console, I got a offer to get a Xbox ONE for 250, (wife's shopping points or something like that), so I got one.

Kept my Xbox 360 because not to many good games on ONE yet, no good golf title, no classic GRAW2 or Rainbow Six Vegas 2, or anything good like Red Dead Redemption... So keeping it hooked up for the kinda console classics.

Only games I've gotten for the ONE so far is FM5, (which I kind like but would be much better if my wheel worked with it), Battlefield 4, (again, for a game that I love to play but hate all the unfixed tech errors, I've bought 3 versions now. Lol), Tomb Raider, and today got Sniper Elite 3.

Looking to get the popular EA Sports games when released, Dragon Age, R6 Siege, Far Cry what 3 now or 4, or any other tactical shooter when released, done with the COD series.

So if you got a Xbox One, and play any of those games, feel free to add me.. Magnum9846

Glad to hear you got one, Magnum. I'll probably get one sometime in the fall. All my extra cash is going towards playing golf this summer.

Games with gold just started for the one too. So you'll get at least one game a month with that. I think this months game starts today but can't remember what it is.

was reading in this months issue of Game Informer how early Xbox one owners are already having problems with full HDD's. PS4 allows you to replace them, but according to the article, Xbox doesn't yet.

not having one I don't know, they gave a walk through for the PS4 though. Said had to be careful to read specs to make sure it would fit in.

The last update allowed the usage of external drives. They just have to be USB 3.0 or they won't work. Has something to do with data transfer speed or something I think.

I probably won't need more, limiting my games on the ONE... But I was able to hook up my 1 TG external HD with no problem...

Got off of a 12 hour shift at 6 AM this morning, played Sniper Elite 3 till 3PM, 1hour of sleep and back at work, love it... Took over 2 hours for 1 mission because trying to go for all stealth kills, didn't work but close. Great game IMO but the enemy goes back to not hunting you too soon and easy.

You know what's funny, I cancelled my day 1 pre-order because of the require kinetc thing, (along with other anti-customer statements), now that I have a ONE, and can see what kinetc can do I want one, but can't find them anywhere. wink

Local Game stores (not game stop, but stores for old nintendo games etc and used consoles) have them for like $100

I've seen them on ebay for as low as $50 (Buy Now).

I have one sitting in a box, how much wink

I was always curious about that Sniper Elite game, I just haven't played Xbox enough to fully invest in buying them.

$200 for just the Kinect2? Ridiculous as hell but not really surprising considering M$.

Like I said, Buy the $499 unit, keep Kinect II wrapped and sell it off for some profit.

Magnum, I added you. I may do GTA5, not sure since I still have it for my 360. I will probably get R6 as well. I should be on your friends list as a follower I think.
