I don't have cable either. I never watch live TV anymore because of all the commercials. Just can't stand that stuff anymore.

That's it. It's a PC. Congrats, Microsoft, you've come full circle.

I live here in the blog slums never raising my eye to read the carefully edited articles of the cognoscenti. Um... but I appreciate the space here to create blogs. Thanks Pixlbit!

Ya know. When Xbox 360 first added connection to Netflix, Facebook, and Last.FM etc..., I was kinda thrilled at first. A couple of times I posted an achievement to Facebook, listened to some music on Last.FM, and watched a TV show on Netflix or a thing on YouTube while I ate lunch as a break to gaming. But since those first few weeks, I've not used any of that. I pretty much just start gaming and stay with that all day. So if this Xbox One can't be a dedicated game machine for me, then I'll have to stick with what I've got.

It would be neat to have a game guide up on a panel alongside the game you were playing. That's about the only thing usefull in all of this for me.

Yea, but he steals his bones.

I thought Kinect would be built into the system somehow, but it's still a seperate unit. I move my system to my friend's house every weekend, so I'm not thrilled to have to pack so much stuff. But maybe I will leave Kinect in the box and never use it.

All during the live event I was wondering if those quick transitions between gaming, TV, movies, and the internet will actually work on a normal internet connection. I keep thinking you're going to need some serious speed to do all that. 

All this Kinect stuff is totally not going to be a part of serious games, no matter how much they say it will. It's purely for the non or casual gamers out there that will primarily be using Xbox as a Netflix/TV/Internet machine. I thus wait for E3 for the info pertinent to me. Huff.

When I was watching the COD: Ghosts rendering of a forest and underwater environment, I was wondering how great an RPG like Oblivion or Skyrim will look with those graphics. It makes me tingle all over thinking about it.
