HBO was available in Penn long before it went national.

They sold it one way, it went the other, pay TV that is...not HBO.

One thing to note is that the cable from controller to Xbox One doesn't have to be sold by Microsoft.

I'll have to give a hands on report about the controller in a couple weeks.  I may be terrible at racing games, but I'll try it out if I can for the controller rumble feedback in that game.

If you can with the racing fella!

If you get the chance to just go mad with the car and push here and see what feedback you get from the triggers.

I also like how any cable will work for the pads to the box.

An interesting quote from Marc Whitten - "That said, like online, the console will still function if Kinect isn’t plugged in,"

They're running out of things to 180 on.  So they better hurry up and announce a sku without kinect that's $100 cheaper.  And change the name to The Other One.

Let's go with a similar idea though that you'd have t make a decision on.

You go out to buy a car, that car comes with special rims, though you have to buy a separate rim/spare tire or go with a spare tire that's too small for the car, that spare tire could (stress could) cause mild damage to the car when used.

What would you do?

And answer the question, not try to side step it with other options.

It's not moot Shadow, take your damn blinders off. People everywhere were freaked out that the Kinect would transfer info/video etc from their household to "someone". The mere statement that it will function without the kinect has eased many peoples minds, COST not being a factor.

You really need to learn to see things from multiple points of view.

Or, you could go work for Microsoft.

"moot in this unboxing thread"

Read what I write, and respond to that - not what you think I wrote.  It's not moot in general, it just doesn't pertain to this thread.  Belongs in another thread in OT - there are many.
