Does Microsoft have day 1 release?

Not a troll. Honestly curious.

I think they're finally starting to catch up in that area.

Not sure how well an all digital one would do considering all the backlash they got about used games. If anything that proved people still care too much about trading/selling games and using services like Gamefly/Redbox. Doubt that rumor is true.

If someone is buying this they understand they won't be able to play used games or use Gamefly for that matter.

Right, which is why I don't think it would sell and that the rumor is just a rumor that will not happen. Far fetched rumor at that, with NeoGaf as the source for that whole article.

Also it appears the white console is confirmed.

what's the point of buying a console if you can't play games on it? Isn't it just a glorified itunes?

All of this information is coming from one mega thread of Xbox One leaks from Neogaf -

quote:


Forza Horizon: "Fall 2014, probably September. Super sexy weather system and... shite tons of co-op/social stuff. 1080P and open-world, so you can road trip with your bros."
White Xbone incoming.
Why all the leaks? Scared you might get caught? "I am incapable of fear. Plus, this is such exciting stuff, and me talking about it ahead of time isn't going to hurt anything, truthfully. We're all chomping at the bit for it to come out. This is not bad. "
Halo Anniversary 2 will be 1080p, iffy on the 60fps, maybe not.
Quantum Break is Holiday 2014
Multiplayer confirmed for HA2, same devs as Halo Anniversary.
Sunset Overdrive is Fall 2014
Is not Phil Spencer
Black Tusk cancelled project was called "Shangheist." May have involved stealing stuff from the Chinese (though I think that may have been a reference to the name and maybe not the gameplay? Not sure...)
Fable Legends is Summer 2015
Halo 2 Anniversary includes beta for Halo 5
Gears of War will probably need a 2.5 year dev time.
First Titanfall DLC is 45 days from release, then another one 120 days from release.
No Crackdown 3 news this year most likely, since it's a 2016 title.
A list w/dates of the rest of the Tier 2 and Tier 3 countries that Xbone will release in this year.
No info/idea on what Rare's up to, sadly.
$399 XB1 this year? "Maybe one without an Optical Disc Drive."


LINK

CBOAT also mentioned that Titanfall will launch with 16 maps...

Ummm digital downloads like Steam on the 1TB HDD it is rumored to have?

Your thread earlier about media/rumors from NeoGaf and then this popping up with CBOAT on NeoGaf as the source is hilarious though.

Yea. I guess all of that drama didn't shut him up.

I will wait for a more legit source or announcement but I think it's plausible MS would do this especially since Larry Hyrb already said they thought about shipping the Xbone with no drive to begin with.

That backlash came from Sony fanboys. If you read any forums like the subreddit for the console, everyone who was going to buy an Xbox One was not happy with the decision to not go all digital.

If this does happen I may consider trading in my Day 1 edition for the all digital. I'm a big fan of it.

I was just going to skip this gen all together and stick to PC but I may get one if the rumor is true. I like the 1TB HDD and though I have everything I need on my smart TV the Xbone's media options still intrigue me.

I've really enjoyed mine thus far. People will say "I don't need one hub for my television. Give me just a gaming console" but this thing is truly convenient. I don't have to constantly turn channels, cut my console on or cut it off, or check apps to see if my friends are online.

It's great with gaming and it's a huge convenience. Everything is in one place.

I've been getting into computer gaming as of late myself. I have a near 4 year old Macbook Pro that runs some games but when I buy my next computer, it will be top of the line for gaming.

While it's unlikely that I'll ever buy a physical copy of a game again, I don't think I'd like one with no disk drive. I like to watch movies and I'd have to start an all digital collection if that were the case.
