Nowhere did I accuse them of breaking the promise of streaming backwards compatibility (but let's face it, Sony has broken promises before). All I'm saying is they've made a pretty bold claim citing unproven/unshown tech without at least providing a prototype to show they have something working.

This. So much this. Excited is an understatement.

Not yet. But they promised it early 2014 if I'm not mistaking. When promising new tech, you need to at least have a prototype to show people. And correct me if I'm wrong, but all Sony has shown are typed words.

*Correction- Like Sony has said they would do, but have not done yet. Broken promises happen man, and streaming an entire game is going to be a challenge I want to see Sony find a solution for. But alas, neither next gen console supports backwards compatibility yet.

Did you use an upgrade or buy the phone outright?

We're still comparing CoD Ghost footage, one of the least optimized 3rd party game that is out, to see the "differences" in graphics? This is becoming laughable.

Growing pains is all this is. Yes, improvements are needed, but the console works albeit needing a few additional steps that shouldn't be there. As a day one buyer, I'm impressed to say the least.

Agree completely. I'm planning on getting a 2TB external HDD soon, and was hoping it would be supported. Saw on Reddit Major Nelson said he had a meeting and things are being addressed.

I'm with you. My Kinect works AMAZING. I'm sure people have issues, but my experience with the X1's Kinect has exceeded my expectations for an initial release.

Secret Sauce

I have to go back and check, but I'm 99% sure Microsoft said they would support 4K movies AND games, while Sony said they would only support 4K movies.

My Xbox live 14 day trial didn't work. What do I get?

I guess I need to see if mines ok since I went all digital :)

As others have said, its smaller, albeit slightly. Maybe an inch or so when compared to the fat360 brick

Aimed down sight in BF4, leaned my head and my character looked around the corner. That's next gen

Just picked up my day one edition, and I'm amazed. Yeah, I said it, amazed. Perhaps I've been groomed with Siri for voice commands, but 90% of the time it works. 5% it doesn't hear me. And another 5% is user error not knowing specific commands.

Saw these videos this morning before going to Best Buy to pick up my console. Actually got me worried, but came home, popped a BluRay in (while downloading Ghosts,BF4, and Killer Instinct) and loved the sound of silence :)

That white one is gorgeous

Is this really that big of an issue? Serious inquiry here. Perhaps I am in the vast minority, but I couldn't care less about watching you live stream a game. Maybe certain professional gamers would be fun to watch, but those people more than likely have higher grade equipment to share their gameplay.

I'd say give it until the 2nd wave of PS4/Xbox One games. Until then, we're merely playing ports from current gen (360/PS3) games.
