The Xbox One controller is pretty similar to the first Xbox, if a bit smaller than it.

Well then, would they "remake" FF7 already? Because my husband's making me play it, but I really can't stand the "Attack of the Popeye Clones" graphics.

Tress FX, eh?

Call me bitter, but remember when Tales of Vesperia came out for PS3 in Japan? The resolution was lower than the 360 version, but it didn't matter to the Japanese who'd gotten the game on their almighty Sony system with tons of extra DLC.

Despite my liking of certain consoles, I've always been of the "PC Master Race" crowd. Wow. Installs. What's all the fuss about? ;)

And here I just thought he was being silly and sarcastic. *shrug*

I remember having to do this on one of my mom's old TVs....

That's what people don't get. I remember Majora's mask having character animations at what? 12fps? 15fps? Pure hardware speed wasn't going to make that any faster. It was simply the frames in the character's animation.

Exactly. Polygon seemed to imply that the drive is mainly a cache, and that the device auto-deletes unused stuff and dumps it on the cloud anyway. (With the idea you could always re-download later and not worry about the hard drive.) Microsoft may not care all that much about people swapping the drive as long as…

I don't get it either. Kotaku, IMO, was ruthless to the Xbox One last spring, as were many other gaming sites. (Tech and Gadget sites tended to be excited and impressed with it.) This, and Microsoft's eventual reaction, upset me a bit, because I actually liked the idea of sharing games with my family.

I think some sort of change is coming though. A few weeks ago Cable One got in this big fight with Turner networks over wanting to keep TNT/TBS and Cartoon Network but drop CNN and Headline News. The reason given was that the ratings were low, and Turner was raising their prices. If their customers weren't watching…

Indeed. I often wonder how well electronics are treated when they're rushed shipped. "Fragile" stickers only go so far.

I kept trying and it eventually worked. I think their site wasn't entirely up or something.

I really don't get that. Just....why? Why add it to gameplay?

*just read the review over at engadget*

I have long held the opinion that if there is a sign saying not to do something, it means somebody did it.

And the true winner of the console war is....AMD! XD

I have no love for Sony. They made real jerks of themselves in the last-gen and so far they're acting very similar.

Who is "they"? You can get a half terabyte external drive at wal mart for what? 50 bucks? Ten bucks more gets you a terabyte?

I'm not completely sure how it works, but I know some devices can control other HDMI devices over the HDMI cable. For example, without changing "modes" or anything on the remote, my TV can control a cable box or a Blu-ray player. I've seen this heavily featured on "smart" TVs as well.
