XBOX GAMING THREAD | PHIL TRUE 4K

[Bad Religion]

So, I know this isn't the place. But you guys seem to be pretty knowledgeable. I haven't owned a console in about 5 years. I'm bored and looking to do some light gaming again, and looking at buying an Xbox 360(used).

What purpose do the gigs(4GB, 320GB etc. play into the equation? Is it just the convenience of saving the game discs to the HDD? All of my media is streamed, so none of that would need to be saved to the HDD itself.

In essense, should I just purchase the most inexpensive Xbox I can find? or is there a "best" version to look for.

Edit: also is the RROD still a huge issue, or was that fixed in newer models?

I had a 4GB 360 and only played 4 or 5 gamed and it was fine for me. You can also purchase up to 16GB of space through USB if you need to, so I suggest the 4GB if you arent playing that many games.

If you like to buy digital, you need the larger HDD.

The RROD still happens, but very rarely at this point. Just make sure you are buying the elite model.

 

[Bad Religion]

Yeah, changes in production team, meaning anything can happen. You mad?

Bruh MS OWNS THE KILLER INSTINCT IP JUST LIKE THEY OWN THE HALO IP. DOUBLE HELIX CANNOT MAKE ANOTHER KI JUST LIKE BUNGIE CANNOT MAKE ANOTHER HALO

February 11 system updates


On February 11, the first update will be delivered to customers who sign into their Xbox One.  It features many new improvements – including lots of behind-the-scenes updates for developers building apps and games for Xbox One, several new features we believe Xbox fans will love, stability and product updates to improve the customer experience, and continuous improvements to the quality of Kinect voice so commands become more fluid and responsive over time.  While we won’t be going into all of the details of the product updates today, we will be sharing more information soon. 


Some of the features you can expect to see on February 11 include:


 

• The ability to see and manage your storage space. With this update, you will find it easy to find how much space your content takes up and better manage your content. You can also control your install lineup and more easily manage your download queue. We’ve separated My Games and My Apps into separate lists, so you can easily create separate queues for both. Now you can pick the order in which you want your content to load and we’ve added a boot progress indicator so you can better track updates while they load.
• The battery power indicator is back! You can see it right on the home screen, so you can easily track how much battery life is left on your controller.
• And, you will be able to use your USB keyboard with your Xbox One.
  
   

These are just a few of the many updates we will be shipping on February 11. We’ll share more details on these and other upcoming features in the coming weeks. We have several surprises in store that we think you’ll love.

How do you turn off automatic renewal for subscriptions? I used the trial for the Xbox music and want to make sure they don't charge me for it.

 

[carver]

Should be able to so it online.. Maybe even from the xbox itself but your best bet is at a computer on Xbox.com

They're gonna be doing games for gold with the xbox one this year and it will probably start off with the launch title arcade game.

I think its a good direction to combat what seems like stale releases to some.

Also treyarch cods are the best

 

[blackboyfly]

Great news. Maybe we'll actually see real improvement in COD games now.
