    Victorious Secret got a reaction from Guest in Xbox One New Elite Controller - Swappable parts included - Updated   
    Microsoft just pulled an accelerated EEE on Scuf. 
     
    Scuf was overpriced, had crappy customer service, and was entirely reliant on MS approving their devices for functionality on the console. MS has killed their creation overnight. Who is going to spend 200 on a 3rd party controller when 90 bucks on a first party one that is assured to work from day one till the day it truly dies?

    Xbox 360 is based off PPC. Xbox One is x86. I'll remind you that PCs STILL don't have proper PPC emulation for the 360, so MS doing it right off the Xbox One is pretty awesome.

    They did, almost everything was about games. 
     
    Curious that COD was not a part of the MS briefing, I think MS stopped paying for those rights. Now PS4 owners get to enjoy the "Mountain Dew cheetos 4 life" image that Xbox owners have enjoyed for all these years.

    Looks like we needed a proper thread for all this information so I am making one, it helps being organized. A lot of new information being revealed that is pretty neat, I will add it here.

    Xbox One is getting early access
     

     
    Yea, it finally happened. But unlike the mess known as Early Access on Steam, you get demos on the Xbox One before you plunk down money. Neat, right?

    This is a big deal, since PCs still don't have a proper PPC emulator for the Xbox 360 and now MS is making it work natively off the Xbox One. That is seriously awesome, AND ITS FREE. 
     
    TAKE THAT SONY! Who wants to pay for your old games via a subscription service when MS is straight up letting old games work natively!

    Yea, I seriously doubt Sony can setup infrastructure to handle streaming games to PS4s. They already charge for old games, no way they add back compatibility unless MS really forces their hand. 
     
    We will find out, but I seriously doubt Sony has anything to rival MSs showing this year. PS4 fanboys are seriously butthurt over this, saying "who needs backwards compatibility". It is sad. MS effectively made PS Now look like crap and Sony is too stubborn to kill it.

    Looks like we needed a proper thread for all this information so I am making one, it helps being organized. A lot of new information being revealed that is pretty neat, I will add it here. 
     
    Will update as I go along. 
     
    Xbox One is getting early access
     

     
    Yea, it finally happened. But unlike the mess known as Early Access on Steam, you get demos on the Xbox One before you plunk down money. Neat, right?

    Xbox partnership with Valve VR
     
    I wish I had more to share on this end, but I don't. I'm trying to see if they flesh out the information on this and let us know what exactly this partnership involves.

    Backwards Compatibility 
     

     
    This is a big deal, since PCs still don't have a proper PPC emulator for the Xbox 360 and now MS is making it work natively off the Xbox One. That is seriously awesome, AND ITS FREE. 
     
    TAKE THAT SONY! Who wants to pay for your old games via a subscription service when MS is straight up letting old games work natively!

    I can hear the PC Mustard Race having a stroke over this, as they will have to find something else to lord over console gamers for with this latest addition to Fallout 4.

    welcome to LTT, where if the feature doesn't make sense for you it doesn't make sense at all and therefore it is stupid.

    No, they aren't. 
     
    Best Buys internal system does not allow products to be sold to a customer before street date. If you try, the price shows up at 9999.99 and more to the point, the system just won't let the sale go through. 
     
    For the product to be on the store shelves it means that the product itself was received from a truck, scanned into the inventory system, given a green light to be placed on shelves and had existing price tags and information cards AND it means that someone at BB Corporate issued update planograms (what they use to place product on shelves) that included shelf space of the new cards. 
     
    No one at Best Buy was being 'stupid'. They follow standard operating procedure. For those cards to even be on sale, at some point someone who controls inventory gave them the green light to do so. 
     
    So two things here happened. AMD (or their distributor) gave Best Buy the WRONG street date, since that is what Best Buy uses to determine when product gets released. 
     
    OR
     
    This was all according to plan, AMD (or their distributor) intended on the product being placed on shelves in this manner this early.
