Picking up The Master Chief Bundle for $350. Any games I should buy with it not named GTA or Call of Duty? Or should I just wait until Halo 5

Kinect is 100% worth it IMO. I use it every day. It still irritates me that people bitched about it for basically no reason.

I use the Kinect all the time, although only the voice commands. Drawback is that when I say "Xbox Off, Yes" my dog knows I am leaving and is pissed. Oddly, my wife thinks she needs to speak in a deeper tone to control it which is a wife problem.

In the end, walking into my mancave saying "Xbox On" and have it turn on everything I want and go to TV is awesome.

I love the Kinect it's easier to navigate with it and faster. I don't really use for any games except Xbox fitness and I only use that when I don't feel like running 5+ miles in 100+ degree weather.

Check out walmart's online bundles for the Xbox one if you haven't yet (not sure if they are available in store). They have the master chief bundle with extra controller and watchdogs or titanfall for $350 (the same price as the master chief bundle alone). Or, for $380, you can get the new Batman game instead of watchdogs or titanfall. This package is without the kinect.

Yep the same thing.

ETA: he can be up two flights of stairs and hear that and he expects to be let out front.

I've been playing Dragon Age: Inquisition and it is pretty amazing. Will definitely keep you occupied for a long time.

I suggest signing up for EA Access once you get it.

For $30 a year you'll immediately have access to:
Titanfall
FIFA 15
Battlefield 4
Madden 15
I think Dragon Age is being added soon

If you plan on buying the new EA sports games when they come out you'll make your money back pretty quickly with the 10% discount

Plus you get like 10 hours to try all of them out before you buy them

I agree with hawgfaninc; a 2TB external hard drive is what I have and it's more than enough and I'm a big gamer
