As a gamer who's been loyal to 'Microsoft' from the very beginning, personally I think the 'X1' console design is certainly nothing special. Especially compared to the competition. It simply reminds me of the huge unimaginative "Brick" design of the original Xbox released way back in 2001..

Surely Microsoft could of come up with something a little more futuristic for today's next gen gamers..

With that said, in time I will indeed own the 'X1' simply because it's the games which I love..

But to be honest, I'll most definitely be waiting patiently for price drops and possible slimmer redesigned versions..

Just like many other gamers, I'm in no rush to go 'Next Gen', due to the fact that there are more than enough '360' titles I haven't had the pleasure in playing yet.

It would be interesting to know your thoughts concerning the 'X1' design.

Thankyou.. I will.. I waited longer to purchase the 360.. As you can see by my original post, "Im in no rush"

The first time Im play a game I usually play it on normal, then next time I will up the difficulty.. Unless it's a 'Halo' title, coz I automatically play on Legendary.

NOTE: If you are not getting an Xbox One, I see no means to why you would post on this thread.

I'm leaning towards Ryse: Son of Rome and Forza 5. Yours?

But I think this is a joke thread , simply to watch all us Microsoft lovers fall over with joy..

would you prefer a car battery?!

Its a great game.. But the developers stripped some of the RPG elements in the second game, which dissapointed many gamers who liked the original.

Im pleased they finally got it right.. I was starting to dislike these muppets in their suits

My main questions are..

A) If I had been on holiday for a few days, on my return would I be able to simply switch on a 'Xboxone' and play online?"

B) On my return would I have to wait 24 hours before I can play online?

Would I need to leave the console on whilst away?

C) Or does the 'Xboxone' have a feature that you can switch ON, that enables it to "Check in" every 24 hours if away?

I'm Confused!
