I remember when "King Pin" came out on PC, it was the biggest demo I had ever seen in my life. 102mb. It took me two days to download it on dial up, had to dial flashnet 7 times to get connected at 38400kbps, kept getting 28800.

So how does everyone like their xbox now that they've had it for a month?

I love mine. It's a bit confusing at first

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming...
No shit about the confused part. You leave yours on all the time?

I love mine... Has few more things to work out but it is turning into an awesome little machine.
Voice commands rock. I will still use a remote, but when walking in a room and to get my projector etc warmed up it's nice to just say "xbox on". Walk back into the room real quick "watch tv" .... "watch fox" while cooking dinner. Then you can use the play/pause commands while eating with messy fingers not worrying about picking up a remote.
Biggest mistake I did was buy hard copy of games. Buy digital copies unless you are a game trader/seller. It's so nice saying "Go to Forza Motorsports 5" and not worrying about putting in a disk. Watch for xbox points/money cards to go on sale($30 for $25 or whatever) and load up your account. Best Buy ran a deal like that one day. So not only did I get the $5 free, I also used my reward zone points that are double for game related stuff.

Yeah well my Xbox wouldn't work with TV lol. Its a proscan and that wasn't on the list I guess so it still has to be turned on manually. Voice commands are really cool. I Need to redo it as its a bit glitchy. Plus the sensor is to close to my speakers cus anything that sounds like Xbox that comes thru throws it into listen mode

How does it work if you have a home theater w/ receiver?

I ordered an XBOX One off of Amazon a few days ago, mainly because I have always had an XBOX. Haven't owned a Playstation since the PS2, but the PS4 kinda has me thinking about returning the XBOX for one.
What is everyone's thoughts on the latest with the Playstation Now service?
I did a little research, and while the PS4 is more powerful, there really isn't any reason the games should look better on it than an XBOX (outside of BF4), all I hear about is how cross platform games will look different.
I guess I had convinced myself that paying the extra $100 for all the other stuff an XBOX does is worth it, but with the announcement of the Playstation Now service, it got me to thinking.
