    The xbox itself and the controller are quite nice. My problem is with the software and Microsofts approach to pain-free gaming. The xbox one feels like a PC with a controller, not a console. I come from N64/Wii, so am a bit behind, but this is not what I expect from a console. My biggest issue was trying to buy a game on the store. I tried to be smart and add a payment method for my account via my PC so I dont have to use the onscreen keyboard. I then went back to the xbox to make a purchase. It repeatedly told me that I had no payment methods on profile, even though I could clearly see the one Id added if I logged into the xbox store on my PC. It took a long frustrated series of random steps before I convinced it to work by somehow magically completing a series of steps it wanted via the xbox. Ridiculous that the store is bugged this way, and even sillier that to buy a game, it links me out to the browser. With Steam on the PC, buying a game is conducted via an in-app browser, but the card-entering/billing experience in native to the app and is super easy. Im keeping the xbox because I have some family members I can play games with on it, but if I was picking up an easy gaming system, it looks like the PS4 has an edge. If you like the PC-like nature of the xbox, just build/buy a quality gaming system. --- UPDATE: I am lowering my rating further. Recent issues: * I changed my gamer tag. This broke my Xbox 360 game, Red Dead. After goofing around, I found out I had to re download my profile. Wasted time. * I purchased GTA V. Let it download overnight. Went to launch it and got a dreaded Something got wrong. Nothing fixed it. Checked Xbox help and confirmed there is some kind of service outage. Cant launch a single player game due to a cloud outage. A console should be a pain-free feed your credit card to me and Ill feed you pain-free gaming. Im running into ridiculous problems likely caused by over-reliance on a Windows OS and a lack of attention to the give MS my money pipeline (why do I need to go into a browser to setup payment profiles???). This is a total step backwards from PC gaming. Ill stop buying games and pick up a PS4 if I want to get in to this again. Only keeping it because my father has one and its a good way to connect with each other.

    I thought I was getting a great deal given it was bundled with both Madden 17 and Battlefield (via download). It was a Christmas present. We got around to reading on how to download the free Battlefield game and the offer expired on 12/31. In other words, we had 1 week to get the game downloaded. Really?

    What a price of garbage. It’s just as useless as my laptop. 30gb update every time you turn it on. Two games and it out of memory. What a joke. Is this really how games are now? First console I bought in 15 years and this is now the state of modern gaming? Sad. Really sad. Had it for two years and used it maybe ten times. Tried to play with my son a couple times just wait for it to update and wait and wait. We do not have slow internet either. Just a shame you don’t own your games and they do not work offline. Garbage.

    This is a long review... so I will summarize it by saying it is a good product, but not perfect. If you want modern games, you should get it. If you dont need modern games and are completely happy with the previous generation (xbox 360), you can get it, but dont expect overwhelming improvements, without shortcomings as well. It is a solid product. I just bought it a week ago (yes, I am behind the times) and have found that it is a definitely a step up from the Xbox 360, but the overall difference is not a shocking improvement. (Although to be fair, the only Xbox One specific game I have played is Fallout 4 and that is one of the earliest X-One games). So far I like most aspects of it, except for one: Microsoft designed it assuming you have a fast internet connection. This causes problems for people that live in areas with limited options for Internet providers. I am stuck with an old 6mbps DSL and a 150GB monthly limit (unless I want extra overage fees). Like most modern game Consoles, it is not just a way to play games. It is essentially a complete computer designed to be an entertainment system that supports things like Blu-ray, web browsers, Netflix, Youtube, etc. I found it annoying that even though it was capable of doing certain things, such as playing Blu-ray discs, I still had to download an app to do so. It should have been pre-installed. The Xbox One S has a HDMI input which is nice for TVs that already have a lot of devices plugged in. I use it for a small android device. However, it appears that if I was using an external TV tuner or satellite receiver, the xbox one would be capable of retrieving tv schedules or show information, which is a nice touch. (but I cannot verify how well it works, because I was not using a tuner). One thing I immediately noticed is the games are MUCH larger than the older 360 games. This causes problems for people downloading digital copies of games with internet providers like mine. The digital copy of Battlefield One that comes with this system is 48.7GB. That is a lot to download on an old DSL connection and it is nearly 1/3 of my monthly limit. So I ended up disconnecting my system from my TV and taking it to work to use a faster internet connection. Fallout 4 is not as large. It is roughly 28GB. I have a physical copy of that game. When installing it, it got up to about 20GB of the install before stating there was an update to it and started to download and install the update (which is slower than a disc install on a on a slow internet connection), instead of completing the entire disc install and installing the patch later. So I forced it to complete the disc installtion by cancelling the install, disconnecting the internet, and restarting the install. I downloaded the patch later. The patch was over 2GB. For reference, a complete game install on the 360 was about 4.7GB. The 2GB patch is easily done with a DSL connection, but it can still take several minutes, which stinks when you are eager to play a game. The Xbox One uses an emulator to play old 360 games. Many games made by well-known game companies work fine. However, many Indie games or less popular games are not compatible. On the games that do work, the performance can vary between games. Some will show improvements and some will show poor performance. The console comes with one controller. It is comfortable and feels well-built. It feel slightly smaller than the 360 controller, but not uncomfortably so. The Xbox 360 and Xbox One controllers are not interchangeable. So you will not be able to just take your 360 controllers to your new console. If you want more than one controller, you will have to invest more money. The Xbox One S improved upon the 360 and the original Xbox One by making it smaller and using a built in power supply, instead of using a large power brick. The One S also has slightly more processing power. Most games made for the Xbox One will not really benefit from this, but I have heard of a few that try to use it. The Xbox One startup has two options. You can set the system to an instant-on mode or an energy saving mode. The instant-on is essentially putting it to sleep, like your laptop or desktop computer. One article I read says the sleep mode still uses 15 watts of power, but I cannot verify that. The power saver mode turns the device off and does not use any significant amount of power. However, when you turn it back on, it took my system a little under 60 seconds to start up. That is annoying an a huge increase in speed when you consider that the old 360 was up in seconds and even desktop computer can start in a fraction of that time. The menu navigation on the X1 is very different from the 360. The 360 only had a small number of tiles visible under each tab this made for VERY easy navigation, but it limited the options available to you. The X1 doesnt limit the content on each section to just a few tiles. If there are more options than fit on the screen, you scroll down. Also, the X1 has your most recently used apps right on the home screen, which is a nice improvement over the 360. I always wondered why the 360 didnt do this. Also, unlike the 360, if you are in the middle of a game and you need to view something on the home screen, you do not have to exit the game. Pressing the home button on the controller shrinks the game into a small window on your home screen, but doesnt quit the game and cause you to lose progress unless you start a different app or turn off the console. A nice touch. I like the system. I think I was expecting more from the system than I should have. But I think it was worth it. It has several improvements over the 360. Most of the improvements I have seen so far were not truly innovative... they were just the obvious next step. The worst part of the system I think is they built it assuming you have a good internet connection. Increasing the requirements of the console is a somewhat reasonable next step when designing the console, but ISPs are not something the consumer can really control. Expecting a consumer to have a hi-def tv is reasonable. Expecting a consumer to magically find a better ISP when (for many people) only one is available, is a questionable design decision, in my opinion.
