You can't even get in the Raid if we wanted to. You would die from the Vex just looking at you anyway though.

Not only that, The VOG gets disabled completely

To the people who said that they didn't want Borderlands "3" since it wasn't on xb1, Gearbox gives you Battleborn.

 

[seandon23]

I've read about that game and it seems pretty dope gonna keep my eye on that title

 

[shottadru]

Think they showed Battle Born at E3

I'm a lvl 27 warlock too,I'm down for a run any night around 930

The game seems so colorful. Hopefully it has a personality similar to that of Borderlands.

I think this is the trailer you're reffering to.

I was playing earlier and my controller just randomly turned off. Couldn't get it back on until I unplugged the headset (just the regular one that came with the console). Anybody know of a way to fix this? I can't play without my headset .

 

[iYen]

^i had a similar problem.
Carver told me do a hard reset(hold console power button until it turns off).
It worked for me

 

[blastercombo]

KI season 2 is out and all I can say is dissipointed

Game isn't even done yet. I'm not taking about the characters on the way either. I'm talking about combo and maya don't even have a story and still animate horribly, only ONE stage finisher, the stage finishers also animate horribly, the UI is ehh.........

This is pretty much what the gaming industry has become. Pay now we'll finish later.

There's an obvious drop in quality since they've changed development teams

Yeah tried that twice, no luck. I kinda think it may be a faulty controller. Over the last month or so it's been randomly turning off and on even with fresh batteries in it. This is the first time this has happened though :\.

 

[blakep267]

Im finally at the level where I can raid. Next time you guys do it, shoot me an invite Lazlo griffin

Halo pre order is live on XBL

Halo pre order is live on XBL

its a tough one. I know I'm gonna keep the game, but if I do the midnight gamestop launch I don't have to worry about any potential xbox live malfunctions

Then again, midnight launches can be just as bad.

Alright so I think I'm going to cave and buy an Xbox One, mainly for the MCC. My issue is which bundle to get? I think I'm leaning towards the one that Walmart is offering where you get the console, kinect, forza and a choice of a game (will be Desitny) for $520. Or should I get the white console that comes with Sunset Overdrive, even though I don't think I would enjoy the game that much and it doesn't come with a Kinect. I'm just looking for some input and suggestions.

1) Is the Kinect worth it?
2) Will I regret not getting Sunset Overdrive?
3) Is the price difference worth it?
4) Should I trade in games toward it and just grab one at Gamestop instead? If not Gamestop, what are some other viable options to trade in?
5) Is Jadakiss as hard as it gets???

There are going to be very good deals come black friday apparently, which sucks because MCC comes out on the 11th. But id still hold off until the last moment for a possible deal. Im talking about buy a console, get a game etc

Also if you have a 360, you can trade it in for $100 towards an xb1 at the microsoft store

1. I think the kinect is worth it. But others my disagree
2. Sunset may not be for everyone. Watch the vids of the first hour play through

1. The kinect is worth it for voice commands and navigating the xb1 a little easier. I've read various users' insights about how they really this feature. There's a kinect voice command called  "xbox record that," but an update will soon make that easy to do via the controller. With more time, the controller itself might be able to be almost as fast as using the kinect. In terms of OS navigability. I personally don't think it's worth it's $100-$150 price tag. It doesn't enhance gameplay and there aren't too many games that utilize the kinect in a non-gimmicky way.

2. If you like third person action/adventure games, maybe. Just so you know, the sunset overdrive bundles gives you a download of the game, not the actual disc.

Here's Insominiac's game portfolio. They have a great track record.

3. In Cali, that bundle is $570. I don't think the price difference is worth it. It would be about $513 for the sunset overdrive bundle, forza 5 and destiny. I think the main factor is if you really want the kinect. If you do get the kinect bundle and dislike the kinect, you might be able to recoup your money. The kinect now goes for $150 new, so you could resell it.

4. I'm unsure. m$ had a trade in deal last month for the xb1. Where you get $100 towards an xb1 purchase, by trading in a 360. Gamestop may have a trade in deal during black friday(11/2, so that might be an alternative.

5. Jadakiss has not been to prison, only jail. Therefore, he's not as hard as it gets.

Lastly, if you're just getting the xb1 mainly for MCC, just get the xb1 when MCC comes out. If you purchase the xb1 from walmart, you can return it.

IDK if walmart would not accept a bundle that has had it's download codes used.

Black friday may have good xb1 deals.

Some past xb1 deals were the titanfall bundle with kinect for $400(bestbuy) and an xb1, game, and $50 giftcard for $400(xbox.com).

If waiting for those types deals aren't worth it to you, cop MCC when it comes out.

Repped and thank you both. I appreciate the thorough responses. I was checking online to see what kind of trade in values some of my games will fetch and I found that I can get roughly $60-75 for some games that I barely play anymore ($25 for MLB 2K13 ) so I think I'm going to do that at Walmart and use that towards the bundle with Forza and Destiny. I watched some of the gameplay for Sunset Overdrive and didn't like it too much, despite the track record. I don't think the allure of the white Xbox is going to be enough for me to cop. I'll use the money I saved from that and the discount I'm going to use to reserve MCC. Hopefully I'll be executing this in the next two weeks or so. I'll keep you all updated.

If anyone cares to chime in though, feel free too. I'm interested in everyone's opinions.

You might need a chat adapter. It's $25.
