Getting this thing to work on PC is another thing though, I'm betting my wireless receiver needs replacing with a bluetooth device, already got one though so we'll soon find out.
Controller looks real nice to me , unfortunately not had one in my hand yet , as said in a previous comment arctic who I follow on youtube (and trust his judgement) was bitching about the size of the thumb sticks , they look fine to me but will judge for myself on the 22nd.

Re: The Xbox One Thread

You can get things to put on top of the sticks. Commonly used on the scuf controllers. They'd rectify sticks that are too small. Although we could see a controller update,remember the original xbox, the controller was huge and annoying and was then replaced by a much better smaller controller.

Haha good times with this monstrosity http://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/...0509-xbox_.gif

replaced with the much better : http://www.deafgamers.com/oldreviews...troller_s1.jpg

The second one you can tell they based the current 360 and XB1 controller from.

Dear,

Thank you for preordering an Xbox One from GAME.co.uk

Due to the epic size of Xbox One we have a lot to do to make sure it gets to you in time for launch day. As a result, we will be processing your order(s) and charging your payment card a little earlier than usual. Please make sure you have enough funds in your account.

If your payment is processed successfully you will receive an email letting you know that your order is on its way. Your order(s) won't reach you early, the email just means it's being held ready for delivery on launch day.

If there is a problem with your order(s) you may receive an email informing you that your order has been cancelled. This could be due to a problem with your payment method. If your order is cancelled in this way please request a call back Customer Service Representative on the following page:

Re: The Xbox One Thread

It's £50 on XBL. I can see it being similar prices or slightly more expensive to go DD. I want to go DD as well but it sucks that we haven't been told about what the prices will be like.

Re: The Xbox One Thread

A few people from Target have got their console early, someone was able to use it and download the Day one patch which he revealed was a 500mb download.

I also read somewhere else that the X1 is a door stop until you have downloaded the patch, so i hope my internet doesnt go down on delivery day! lol

http://www.neowin.net/news/thanks-to...-shipped-early

Apparently 1 of these users has had his console banned by MS which is very bad PR by MS if you ask me as it wasn't his fault the console he purchased got sent to him early.

Re: The Xbox One Thread

Erm I assume you mean 50-500mb... (fixed now) I seen 500gb and nearly cried.

After all the drama over online requirement it seems a bit daft again to require a connection to make the console work.

I was one of those rare few that actually liked the always online idea though. I still could swerve and get one last minute but the lack of games would be a downside. I've got stuff like BF4 on the PC. Same with FIFA but that's without the ignite engine. Could get Forza and Fifa but seems like that's the only choices I have. Finding somewhere to put it is another problem. Wouldn't be an issue if it stood up like the 360. Don't have room on the desk for it lying down -_-
