Seriously one of the worst things of this gen as a consumer. I buy all my Live codes at a discount and entering in the numbers was a true pain.

Great news. Those codes are 25 characters long, and I often buy them.

Better with Kinect :drops:

There's a "first world problems" joke somewhere in this.

I agree though.

Yeah that's pretty awesome. The interface stuff with the Kinect is pretty great all round, it's only in game that I have no interest in it (except for using it as a mic).

thats cool. but ms will sell x1 without kinect after all the fanboys have gobbled up the release bundles so what they should do is have a qr scanner on xbox app on your phone. sony should also do this with their playstation app.

It will be like Siri before you know it.

Xbox go to Amazon and preorder Halo 5 & Titanfall. Username: John Doe.

XBox send receipt to my e-mail address.

While playing a Forza 5. XBox order a Sausage & Pepperoni Pizza from Pizza Hut.

Redeeming Codes with Kinect...

Probably the most groundbraking thing MS has done with the Xbone.

You're going to change your tune as usual when Sony finally manages to do something like this 2 years from now.

You cows always start it with "who cares when...". Then after a while "we have it too now haha"

That's actually pretty good. The only downside is if it will understand what the person says.

I never said it wasn't neat. But I won't have it because I won't spend $40 useless dollars on the stupid PSeye

Interesting. Hopefully they will implement the same thing for the 360 with Kinect. I hate scrolling through letters to enter those 25 digit codes.

I was thinking about this months ago... I was sure nextgen system would add a feature like this to their systems. I hope sony adds a system like this to the camera and and their phone app.

We all have biases and mine slant toward MSoft's console at the moment.

I don't have a kinect because I don't have the room for one. I did buy a used one at one point and didn't work all that well so I returned it.

And Like I said it's neat. But i'm truly not that lazy. Even if sony did it i'm still not that lazy

Good thing I have a ridiculously good memory and can look at those 16 digit codes for like 5 seconds and put them in instantly. This is just technology dumbing down the world again. Instead of practicing short term memory exercises with pre order codes, MS wants you to wave pieces of paper in front of your TV like an idiot.

Just buy them online and have the codes emailed to you, copy and paste into Xbox.com.

I love that you are assuming people are lazy for using a feature. It is the height of elitism. Get over yourself.

Animal? you actually enjoy entering those damn things in? On the Xbox they are a mile long and when you get a preorder bonus and Limited Edition content, entering multiple codes can add up to a lot of time. Win for MS.

No it's not. It's the ultimate form of laziness. It goes to show the society of today is becoming the society of wall-e everyone's to lazy to do anything themselves anymore.

I really don't give a flying **** if I have to enter a code or not. And like I said it's a neat feature i'm not denying that.

But it is lazy for people to be complaining about entering codes for free shit.

That's seriously awesome, and fast. Just another one of the several small touches that the Kinect adds to the console experience.
