Old n Achy, if you're not already on my friends list, I need to get you on there.  Overall, even with the not always functioning party chat, I've enjoyed my Xbox One so far.  However, with all of my friends that haven't gotten one yet, it's a little like starting over again.  I need to get more Xbox One friends.

Plenty of consoles available, just not at the price any sane person would pay.

Yeah, I guess you mean EBAY. I'm never desperate enough for something to pay for more than it's retail value. Even then, I look for sales. My wife loves it when I get something on Sale and especially when I price match within 30 days after the purchase. You'd swear to goodness I just got some free Gold.

Targe has a couple sitting on the shelevs the other day I was there. I cant imagine they lasted long though. I'll probably buy one once Titanfall comes out and maybe see if I cant get some type of XBOX/Titanfall bundle.

Sometimes I think the number of people I know of waiting for TITANFALL outweighs the number having already bought an XB1. We could be in for some interesting times in March.

The XB1 occasionally shows up in local inventory and I'm sure the lucky can still get one. Pretty sure most inventory doesn't last a day.

FYI. TITANFAL 360 is not being made by RESPAWN (contracted). No video or pictures have been shown yet. AFAIK.

I'm sure at it's core it'll be the same. That's the only game that interests me so like kitten I'll be on the 360 with it. Respawn has to be making it, but maybe someone else is doing the port over?

The following quote came from Polygon, apparently. Sounds like a different beast than just a port. I am giving a heads up because no media has been released for the 360 version yet.

Quote:
Respawn has now fully moved on to next-gen development on Xbox One and the PC. While an Xbox 360 version was also announced this week at Microsoft’s E3 press conference, it’s being handled externally. More curiously, EA and Respawn have refused to discuss the Xbox 360 version or to divulge the studio working on it, though Respawn insists they’re working closely to ensure their partner is getting what they need to make a game that lives up to Titanfall’s next-gen versions.

It's odd, but I don't care. I can't justify buying a new console that's $500. for a game I might not even like.

Oh I'm with you 100%. Hell I'll probably just gamefly it... shooters don't do it for me anymore. NBA2K14 has become my new love.

Not odd at all. Those are my reasonings as well (plus I'm broke...lol).

The earliest I might get an XB1 is when Destiny launches. At least with this game we'll get a Beta to see if we like it.

I'm totally gonna laugh if the 360 version plays better becasue they passed it off to someone who might see this as their chance to make a name for themselves and they do a great job.

I pretty much just bought the console to sit on the shelf until March.  I think there's like 3 games i'm interested in playing on Xbox this year, TitanFall, Destiny and maybe watchdogs tough all the delays have me worried.  Crew looks interesting but the last few Tom Clancey games out of Ubi have been shit so i'll wait and see on that.

I'm not sure if i'm going to liek Titanfall though or not, it seems like there's just too much chaos going on to actually be able to focus on anything for more than half a second.

quoted.  I'll check back on your tag later in 2014 to see if you stuck to this, lol

come on.  Most years games you haven't even heard of get on your radar month to month.  Just because huge huge games are announced a year ahead doesn't mean that's all that is coming.

Plus I'd check out The Division and I don't even play Clancy games.  Dragon Age Inquisition, The Witcher 3

Those are the 3 games I'm looking forward to this year. Don't think I will pick up any others, pretty sure those will keep me busy for a while.

Withcher3 doesn't have a release date yet, but it's one i'm interested in.  I've read an unofficial date of Sept, unfortuniatly that would conflict with Destiny and if I have to make that choice, Witcher 3 will get put on the 'pickup later' list.  For Inquisition i've just read 'fall 2014' and i've read it may not even ship in 2014 at all.  Having missed the previous two DA games, I could go either way on Inquisition, it would depend on what other games are releasing within 3 weeks before and after and where they rank in priority for me personally.

I said 'crew' but I actually ment Division, that games' on my radar.  I'll need to see a lot more of it though, UBI's not had a very good run with Clancy games as of late.  The tech demos look impressive though so far.

2014:

Halo 5 : not interested

Titanfall  : Would rather not buy it but by March, i'll probably need SOMETHING to play.

Destiny : must buy

The Division : IF it ships in 2014 at all, I'll wait and see what people think about it first. For sure it wont be a launch day purchase for me.

Witcher 3 : IF it ships in 2014, I'm interested. But if it comes out against Destiny, i'll prob pick it up during holiday salesand play it in Dec.

Dragon Age Inquisition : Also may not ship in 2014. They are trying to launch it in fall though but i'll already be playing Destiny and potentially have Witcher 3 on deck.  So i'll probably never get to DA:I , just like the previous two DA games.

Thief : not interested

D4 : not interested

Watch Dogs : was a must buy until they delayed it again. Now it's a wait and see, still interested though.

Sunset Overdrive : Interested depending on when it comes out.  At least this one they seem confident it'll ship in 2014.

 

ALso looking forward to seeing what the indy scene comes out with.  I"m probalby more interested in indy stuff than $60 boxed retail games at this point.

I think we may be the only gamers here lol. I've never seen a rush at our Best Buy for consoles or games. It's kinda nice to walk in and know whatever game I want is there :)
