I'm officially ready for the X.

Went out and bought a 4K set!!! I upgraded from a Sharp LC-46D64U(yeah I know. Old as hell) to a TCL 55P605. This TV is fantastic, man. So pleased with it and I can't wait to play Ass Creed Origins on this thing tomorrow.

I'm going to try my luck tomorrow morning as a walk-in at GameStop. I wish that somebody else was offering as good a trade-in value for the One S because I'm concerned about their inventory per store

Does anyone know if the Dolby Atmos license that you can buy for headphones, is linked to an account or to a single console?

Just got off the phone with a B.B. sales associate at the store where i preordered for in store pickup. I was inquiring on the email I received about my Scorpio edition not being ready for in store pick up and asked if i could still pick up in the morning when they opened. She said most likely not and she heard shipments for Scorpio edition were delayed by a week? Anyone else run in this? I called their customer service line and of course they weren't very helpful at all.

AMAZON UK: Has anyone else's order not updated yet? Money hasn't been taken from my account and it hasn't been dispatched yet. It still says it will be here on the 7th though.

It's 1.30am here now.

Almost here fellas/gals...wish I had gone to the launch in Manhattan, seems like a ton of people is there. Haven't been to a console midnight launch since the 360.




I wonder if we got any RE boys in there. looks dope tho, reminds me of when i stood in line for Xbox One at Best Buy, what a fun night that was we were let into the store and everyone was just talking and playing games, I remember they had a couple XO demos set up along with WiiU and PS4 so everyone was just playing that while we waited like an extra hour or two to receive our consoles. First time I ever did that and with my dad too.

God dammit.. The hype is real.

Unfortunately, the console doesn't launch here until December.. I'll have you guys to keep me in the loop.

I've just bought a pair of HyperX Cloud II's. I think there's a pair called Cloud X specifically for the X1. AFAIK though, you can Atmos with any headset.
I guess i can try the trial when i get my X. I thought you needed like Atmos branded headphones or something, if not cool to see i can use that feature too.

Finally received an e-mail from Best Buy Canada at 7:30 p.m. ET confirming that my pre-order has been shipped! No idea when it's supposed to arrive because the tracking number doesn't show up in Purolator's system yet.

Purolator always delivers around 3pm for me, obviously it will be different for you but i wouldn't worry about any delays they have always been consistent in my experience.

Yeah, they're usually around mid-afternoon for me too. My OG Xbone was delivered on launch day by BB, so I'm pretty confident that they'll come through again.

Just got my regular edition 1X....for some reason I can't get the thing to stay powered on! It keeps shutting off before I can even setup my language. I've tried multiple outlets. Has anyone had this happen before?

Sorry if this has already been addressed guys, but how's the UHD player on this compared to the Xbox One S? I heard the S had some playback issues.

I saw the regular X's and the Scorpio X's when I was at Best Buy on Saturday. They were all stacked behind the counter, and I could tell they had both types. They definitely got them (Houston area... not sure where you are). My order says "preparing" on the main page, but when I click on it, it says "ready for pick up November 7th" so... I'm going to swing by and see if they're actually opening tonight. The website said they're not participating in the midnight opening, but a girl on the phone said they were, so... I dunno.

Swap it! Sounds like a faulty one.

I think most of the issues on the S are in software rather than hardware, and the blu-ray app gets updated pretty regularly. Probably best to ask on a movie-by-movie basis to see about others' experiences.

Been playing around with mine all morning and am pretty impressed. Really solid feeling build quality out of the box and the enhanced 4k assets really add some pop. Make sure to check out that Insects demo also as it really highlights the differences of HDR and 4k assets. Very useful for those with unbelieving significant others.

My 1X appears to be staying powered on for now....downloading the 783 MB initial update now..., not the way I wanted to start this journey!
