July 1, 201313 yr If you're asking why it may be good news, it's because that guy has been a PR nightmare for Microsoft by sticking his foot in his mouth a few times. Story has also been updated to confirm the report.

July 15, 201313 yr They have sold their allotment. Have to wait until Microsoft gives them more. Yes but I was thinking more along the lines of another suggested major retailer.
July 15, 201313 yr Author Yes but I was thinking more along the lines of another suggested major retailer. Oh my bad..haha Walmart, maybe Target, Microsoft website. May google it and see if they have any different ones. I'd sign up for emails from Amazon and Gamestop though, I'd guarantee they get more.
July 19, 201313 yr Author Xbox gamers will be able to play games while downloading or installing them.
August 1, 201313 yr Author A lot of updates here recently. - Xbox 360 Headsets will be compatible with the Xbox One if you purchase an adapter. - Xbox One will allow gamers to capture highlights and gameplay using capture devices similar to what is used on the Xbox 360. - Xbox One will incorporate a "reputation" system for gamers. Green - Good player, Yellow- A player that needs to improve, Red- A player that should be avoided. Now this system isn't based on how good or bad you are at a game but rather how you play (cheating, abusive, etc.) Microsoft is calling it a "smart match" system. - Indie developers are now allowed to self-publish on the Xbox One.....HUGE for Microsoft! Rumors Microsoft may be adding for RAM to the Xbox One Microsoft may end up including a head-set with the bundled Xbox One.

My first thought it that they really should include a headset with the bundled Xbox One. My follow up to that however is that I really hope my turtle beach's are still compatible with the new Xbox One. Love my beach's.

Yeah I have a Turtle Beach X42 and I'd much eater pay $20 or so for an adapter than buy another set of Beach's.
August 2, 201313 yr Author Microsoft has upped the GPU speed of the Xbox One from 800mhz to 853mhz. Said that often times they have to change speeds depending on what they put in to begin with sometimes they were too aggressive and sometimes they were too conservative. Microsoft has also changed the graphics driver in the Xbox One. Whitten also confirmed that Xbox One’s graphics driver has been changed, explaining, “This is the time where developers have the final dev kits in their hands and are really working closely with us on how things have come together. Since E3, an example is we’ve dropped in what we internally call our ‘mono driver.’ It’s our graphics driver that really is 100% optimized for the Xbox One hardware.” http://m.ign.com/articles/2013/08/02/microsoft-confirms-xbox-one-gpu-boost
August 8, 201313 yr Author Microsoft has really stepped up after making mistakes and seem to really want this to be a great console. Changed policies, add headset, maybe more. Really listening to fans of console. I was good before the changes though.
