Ah cool. I'm pretty out the loop in gaming in general, currently have a GTX 260 :D. Odd how you mention the 460, a friend offered to swap my card for his old GTX 460, sounds like it'll suit me just fine!

Is this necessarily true? I mean, you really don't need a high end gaming PC to play the latest Xbox 360 titles, and I'm sure it'll chug along pretty decently with these early Xbox One titles. So if you wait another year and then buy the beefiest PC you can find, I'm pretty sure you'll be fine and dandy for the coming years of console games.

edit:
oh, has already been said I see.

only took them a year, but media streaming is a fact for the Bone. supports mkv.

http://majornelson.com/2014/08/12/kicki ... ming-soon/
a new app will be available soon that enables users to play media files from either an attached USB device or from a network connected home media server that supports DLNA protocols. The preview version of the Media Player app will initially only support USB devices, with DLNA support coming soon. Xbox One will support more formats than Xbox 360, including support for dozens of new file formats like mpeg 2 TS, animated gifs and mkv which will be added by the end of the year. See below for additional file formats.
Doombrain rejoice.

It's a gaming device first and foremost. And until there's actually some games worth playing, I won't go with the next gen consoles. If Fallout 4 came out tomorrow, I'd buy an xbone today...

Why not buy it tomorrow at the same time as buying the game?

Cause I'd want to get it all set up and ready the day before. So I don't waste precious Fallout 4 time. Duh...

Got one just so I can play Destiny on it. Can't wait, although AC Black Flag is actually really fun. Way better than previous AC games anyway.

Yeah it's fucking awesome! I love wandering around doing pirate things. Dunno why but it's struck a chord with me and that hasn't happened with any recent games... Save maybe GTA 5.

Sure, but it's bullshit how MS is treating an important market like the Netherlands like a 3rd world country.
Also, aren't these things country coded, so that depending on the country the console was bought in, certain things from onlt that country work, like certain online deals or vouchers?

In this very thread we've been over this. The Bone is regionfree, as are it's games. Dl vouchers work everywhere unless youre in a country where there's no Live.

Also, MS offers full support for imported machines. The only thing is that the Kinect and dash doesn't support your native language.. seeing how the Bone is no longer bundled with the Kinect that point is also moot.

Every Saturn, Mediamarkt, Dixons and maybe even Intertoys has it in sale, not to mention Redcoon, Bol.com etc. At first it was the German import but now it's even labelled as NL.
