Can't you just use an external drive for more memory. I just copped a xone this weekend.... figured out this remote play with my windows 10 2n1... that shyt's boss :ahh:. I'm laying in the bed playing games switching back and forth. I don't even want to use disks no more. If I had known about this xbox mini I would have gotten that instead.
That works good over WiFi? I might try to play this Batman in the bedroom and test it. My Xbox One is in the living room plugged into a wireless AC router in wireless bridge mode going to my main wireless AC router.

Sorry but digital only is flop city in the console market. The majority of games are still purchased through physical. Its cheaper,you can resell,borrow and lend etc.

Anybody that thinks consoles are going all digital any time soon is delusional. Their may be an option,but it wont sell well.
It should sell if its cheap

Why? you can use a external hard drive. they make slim ones.
I despise external drives. I want an xbox one, not an xbox one with even MORE shyt coming out of it.

Let's see:
HDMI IN and HDMI OUT cables
Kinect cable
POWER cable
Ethernet cable

That's FIVE cords coming out of my system, how much shyt are we going to connect to this damn thing?

I tried this Arkham Knight over my wireless AC setup. The lag is minimal. Beats the hell out of using a PSTV to stream a PS4 to a different room. I can't believe how well this runs. Probably not for stuff like fighting games but Batman works well. I'm gonna use this a lot. It will effect what system I buy games on too.

Also I can use my Xbox 360 controller to play Xbox One games with this method.

:why: Idk why y'all so happy and surprised they wanted to do the discless xbox one since the begining when that whole drm fiasco happened. REMEMBER??? But they never did because the idea of the xbox one being a digital only, always needing to be online only game system made no fukking sense whatsoever... :mindblown:

again you have to pay $30 to get that base price.

there's also stuff like Microsoft rewards and digital sharing that bring down the price of digital.

what you are doing is comparing the absolute best case scenario to a more common scenario on the digital side.

I could create a scenario and say

well I got $20 off with microsoft rewards, I got a 10$ gift card for preordering, and me and my homie went half on the game, so I only spent $15.

sure its a very possible scenario, but its not typical.


You are the woat Smdh

Yup.

Best buy rewards program is valid for this comparision. Microsofts reward program isn't.

Why?

Trade in value is valid, but trade/share with a friend value isn't.

Why?

Best but $10 gift cards are valid. Microsoft $10 gift cards aren't.

Why?

Now actually think about it before replying with more dumb shyt:stopitslime:

Ok where is the Microsoft rewards program brick and mortar store where I can get hard copies of a game and that game also has trade in and resale value?

No matter which way you spin it the hard disc game has a better value than the digital game based on the ability to resell alone.

This is disgusting, not not the xbox mini, the hate that Microsoft cannot escape by fan boy's.

The sad fact is everything microsoft has done, other company come up behind tweak and use.

If sony would have announced this it would been (more options are always good)

Its really getting lame...

The fukk:dahell:

The comparison was for digital games. There are brick and mortar Microsoft shops, but that doesn't matter in the comparison of Physical Vs. Digital.

Let's be honest there are very and I mean very few b&m Microsoft shops...Best Buy is everywhere in the U.S. And that's besides the point that the hard disk game generally has better value.

Every time I download a digital game due to being lazy I know I'm being ripped off.

Sony smart.... they played the cut whereas microsoft came out the gate looking to fukk people over... lets keep it 100... if any company fukked you over why are you still cheerleading for them again, even after they know they fukked up and even now gonna implement their policies anyways in albeit a modified form.

You know what's really lame? Giving Msoft money when they just tried to rape you in your pockets anyways... be a smart consumer showing brand loyalty to a company that doesnt deserve it is just dumb shyt... :youngsabo:
