I know Xbox has:

Sunset Overdrive

Forza Horizon

Scalebound

Project Spark

Fable Legends

Quantum Break

Crackdown

Fantasia: Music Evolved

Halo 5

Master Chief Collection

Sony has:

Uncharted 4

The Order : 1886

Infamous: First Light

LittleBigPlanet 3

Bloodbourne

Let it Die

Am I missing anything?

I am looking to get a new pair of surround sound headphones and wanted to see what you guys that was good. I have the A50s but I was thinking about looking into some of the wired headsets out there to see if I could get some better sound quality and punchier bass. As long as I can plug an optical audio cable into it then it will work for me. Unlike the Turtle Beach i30s that are the first to feature the amazing "DTS Headphone X" technology, .. yet for some reason were made for the iphone with bluetooth being the only way to connect it to anything.

What a waste.

Anyways, I saw the turtle Beach XP Sevens on the top of one list. Anybody have any experience with those?

Wow, it's kind of nice to hear a company not try to downplay a problem, claiming that it's totally acceptable and "within our expectations" and instead just focus on how to take care of it.

"We know that with a hardware launch of this magnitude customers will have questions and we have many avenues for customers to get the answers they need and get back in the game as soon as possible. Rest assured we plan to take care of our customers."

"Any customer who believes they are experiencing an issue with their Xbox One should reach out to us. There are many avenues available for customers to get in touch with us including:

• Xbox.com for support pages and forums
• On Twitter with @XboxSupport
• There are also Help and diagnostics on the console by saying ‘Xbox Help'"

@TheEroica:

Actually Launch day started in Australia 5 hours ago and lots of people have gotten their Xbox Ones in the mail already. Hence why the fellow with the bricked console has one. So there are plenty of people who have their hands on an Xbox console right, yet how many are having problems?..... 1.... one single guy... Not saying that it will be the only one, but compared to the PS4 fiasco things are looking pretty good for the Xbox one.

@tormentos:

I think you guys are getting waaaay too excited about this. This is one.... single... incident.. The day before the PS4 launched there were multiple reports and videos about bricked PS4 consoles from Pro Reviewers and Consumers. You might wait until the bricked Xbox One's get into the thousands before you pop the cork. 1 incident doesn't really say much about anything.

@Truth_Hurts_U:

Your right. I just skimmed and missed the video link. So I guess there is one report so far. I guess there's bound to be a handful of problem consoles.. a normal handful.. not a Sony "Handful". I don't see it getting that bad. :-)

Of course this is one Xbox DOA compared to several PS4's that had bricked this time last week so I wouldn't get too excited.

So we get a picture of an Xbox one sitting on a Wii and a Xbox 360 and some guy claiming it's DOA? He can't upload a video showing that it really isn't turning on? I am not saying that Xbox one won't have problems but this seems a little thin.

Every topic about Ryse gets locked except for the one titled "GS Ryse Review 4.0"?

That's nice.

So the only place we discuss Ryse is under a topic that says "GS Ryse Review 4".. and everything else gets locked? Yeah seems legit. Anyways, here are all the Ryse reviews available that were in another thread before it got locked.
