There are many posts about it spread across 3 threads. There isn't an actual thread for it though.
New UI is finally it. Please don't change it again and just tweak it.
It'll probably change in 6 months. Lol
I still cant believe he called the Xbox One a garbage system for garbage people. What a fucking asshole.
That makes his post so much sweeter.
When the assholes do a 180, you know it's a big deal.
Glad to hear this! I only have a 1080p set at the moment, but I'm excited about the CoDWW2 improvements. It still won't show up in my enhanced game tab.

Not sure if anyone saw this yet but I commend Microsoft on taking this step to recognize that some us play on gaming monitors, specifically 1440p and the lack of support for 1440p from Sony has really baffled me. Wish my Pro would natively support 1440p like the One because that would be a sweet spot for my gaming PC and 27" display.

I don't think a little finessing would hurt. There's a couple things I'm not a fan of. Took me like 2 minutes to find out how to add friends. I might just be dumb though
I'm about to go to Best Buy and redeem my "mystery certificate" after work today! I usually only get like $5-$10 from the things, but if I somehow strike it big I will absolutely be buying the Xbox One X tomorrow.
Otherwise, I'm waiting for my best bud to move in so I can try out his on his 4K TV. I'm hyped either way!

Nothing yet for mine. I'm gonna see if they're doing a midnight thing and if I can pick mine up then. Just in case I'm still up.
He was a big Xbox fan and felt let down. That's alright. I know its a mid-gen console but this feels much more than that. Starting with the S the X feels like a reboot.
Yeah, we fucked up but we are making a straight up gaming machine.
Pretty cool tbh.
Fair enough...
but just what do you mean by you don't want to "risk" it?
I had my Pop's Xbox One set as my home so he could play all the digital games that I bought, but set it back to mine when the hurricane was coming around because I was afraid I was going to lose internet. I haven't re-set his as my home yet simply because he just didn't play any games on it anyways, but I plan on doing it again soon.
If it frightens you then I don't want to push you to do anything you don't want to, but so far for me it's just been an easy-going process. I guess other people might've had worse experiences though. Hope you can find a fix to your issue either way!
Gamestop shipped mine then told me the payment had been declined. $0 balance on a $1200 limit. WTF are you talking about GS?
Some praise from the guys of Penny-Arcade:

No Bethesda game features HDR support on any platform, with the notable exception of Elder Scrolls Online on consoles.
is the patch for assassins creed even out yet?
Because every other comparison makes them look completely identical.
I got it a couple days ago and it shows up XB1XE tagged for me now. Oh...I'm talking about the first game, not Origins.
Thanks for the info. I'll leave my current one as the home Xbox, and the Scorpio will be set up from scratch :)
Amazon UK still not shipped my Scorpio edition and its 8:30pm here. Becoming a little worried.
Amazon US just charged my card.
Looks like they will be shipping tonight by air (unless it's already at a sorting place near me). But this was the way they did it for PS4 and Xbox One launches.
So those without a shipping notification yet, it might not be time to panic. When Amazon isn't screwing up my orders, this has been par the course.
Usually the tracking won't be updated till like midnight. And by 4am it will be by your local shipping center. By 6am it will be out for launch date delivery.
This is how it was for me for the other major launches. It's just easy to worry when others had their shipped yesterday or today. But if you live close to one of their shipping centers, they will wait. And it will be at your door on time (again assuming they don't screw up your order).
God I'm excited. I just bought Wolfenstein II and Assassins Creed Origins for my X last night.
Can't speak for UK. But as I said above, they often ship really late (where tracking doesn't update till midnight or even 3am). And it will still be there on time. You might live close to a shipping center.

Free console?!? Wonder why they never charged before shipping.
I'm glad you found a solution to your problem, but dammit...
I feel dumb now for not thinking of it myself earlier. It's so simple...
They could still use their local courier services to do same day delivery. Don't give up hope yet.....
Mine moved from being here by 8 pm tomorrow to 11, it still hasnt shipped...its not happening this week is it? I hope im wrong and am just being overtly negative.
Thanks this is slightly comforting.

I got my best buy shipping notifications around 3 eastern time and Fedex shows up at my place in the morning.
Shipping notification less than 24 hours before it arrives is normal for release day deliveries.
Don't give up hope yet folks.

I got a tracking number from UPS last Friday saying GameStop shipped my X and I would get it on 11/3. Then I got another email saying that was a mistake and they'd send me another email with the correct delivery date. The tracking number still doesn't have any shipping information. I hope GameStop isn't finessing me and I get my system tomorrow...
As far as you know they never shipped you anything.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Yeah it is stressful. I can say that for all the major launches, this is how they handled it for me and many others. Either you get your system shipped 2 Days before, to be there at launch, or you get it shipped the night before with one day shipping. And it's on time the same as the people that had their units shipped earlier.
The X factor is that Amazon has been inconsistent recently (their Switch launch was a disaster for many).
Make sure to check your bank, and see if they charged your card. If they did, it will give you a little more comfort (as they will charge before they ship). They will prob keep charging for the next 5-7 hours. So make sure to periodically check. They only barely charged me 20 min ago.
Anybody from Canada get any notification from BestBuy.ca? I pre-ordered from them way back on day one and I haven't received any shipping e-mails and my BB account just says that it's in progress. I pre-ordered the OG Xbone from them and it was delivered reliably on launch day, so I was confident in pre-ordering from them again. Not the end of the world if I don't get it tomorrow, but it would be nice!
Still not past the point of no return. I've had items ship out the morning of delivery and still make it because Amazon will use their same-day courier.
Xbox One X will be delivered tomorrow. I will be tracking UPS all day and asking if it's arrived yet.
I will need to make sure all my stuff is on the hard drive.
What was the first game you fired up?

Fuxking rediculous
Ganestop opening at 11.
Guess i can setbit up n play tomortow after work.
....maybe ill play til 1 am lol
Thank goodness I got the shipping confirmation from Best Buy. Except it's using some carrier called ontrac? Never heard of them and when I go to tracking it says the tracking number can't be found.... I'm hoping that's because I just got the shipping confirmation?
