At Gamescom, all the controllers that weren't PC versions were PS4. Unless they were one of those games that had a deal with MS.
Or so I have read.
Yea i know, you can use a ps4 controller on pc's. The developers can.

Like I said, don't quote me on it.

Yeah but it doesn't install custom drivers. Why would they use a non-custom, standard controller on PC when they can just connect a 360 (everyone's current favorite) controller to run the PC versions perfectly?
Yes you can. Skype supports the snap feature. You can run at least one snapable app during a game (Skype, Twitch, NFL app, etc). You might be able to do two apps but I think that isn't the case.I haven't found this anywhere, but is it possible to have a skype video call running whilst playing Battlefield 4, for example?
I'm still not incredibly confident in my Xbox One pre-order from the MS Store. Not sure why.

Same here. For some reason, I find the "backordered" status disconcerting, even though they technically ALL are backordered.
Why don't you two preorder from GameStop? They're still taking plenty of preorders.
Worked for them for 8 years- managed for the last three. No chance in hell that I'm gonna throw myself into that clusterfuck. If Amazon was still doing them, I'd change mine, but MS is giving me free shipping and (theoretically) release date delivery.

Why is it a clusterfuck? I'd like to know what I'm getting myself into lol.
No matter what you do, everyone around you will be, more than likely, at least annoyed. The employees will be mad because A) no one wants to follow directions, B) they're getting yelled at because a few (if the store is lucky, only a few) will be going home empty handed without any usable clear information as to when they'll get their reserved system, and C) there will be people buying systems only to scalp them, while people who actually want them get nothing. The customers will be mad because A) employees are annoyed and being shitty, B) some of them won't get a system and will have no idea what the hell going on, and/or C) they just don't want to stand in line. It's exciting, and can be a lot of fun, but the people who don't get their way will try to ruin it for everyone else. And so will the scalpers.
So, when I asked the manager if I was guaranteed one at launch, he was lying by saying yes?
I will be really pissed off if that's the case.
Unless they've gotten quantities (which it's awfully early for), he wasn't lying, but he can't guarantee it. 360 launch, we were told that we could guarantee 36 pro, 11 core. We got 28 pro, 20 core.
He did guarantee though. As long as I pick it up within 48 hrs, it should be there. After 48 hours, they sell yours to somebody else.
You fail at reading comprehension.
There was a failure down the line of guarantees.
MS to Gamestop: We will give you this many, guaranteed.
Gamestop to manager: We will give you this many, guaranteed.
Manager to you: We have enough for you, guaranteed.
MS to Gamestop: WHOOPSIE DAISY.
Any pre-ordered item from the Microsoft Store says backordered. I've ordered from them in the past other items and they all said backordered. No worries.

Nov. 15-22 is gonna be a dangerous, breath-holding week for the XBO. A lot of people may cancel if they are satisfied with the PS4 or they cant wait till the 22 to play Watch Dogs or whatever.
I might cancel that week if im happy with the PS4.

The wait for the PS4 in Australia is going to kill me knowing of all the people who'll be hammering away at their PS4's and XBOne's before I get mine.
It's only video games, calm down.
Why is everyone pro CBOAT after he biffed on the ps3 oct release date? Was there ever an explanation?#TEAMCBOAT/BELIEVE

One thing wrong doesn't mean much. Also cboat is closer to MS.

why do you believe that 'army of dedicated fans' is any more 'dedicated' then the army of Nintendo fans? Is there any fan known for more devotional fervor than a Nintendo fanboy? And the Xbox One is significantly more expensive than a Wii U was at launch.
I don't say all this to imply that I think it won't sell out this holiday season. I simply think making these sort of declarations is kind of an empty statement because we really don't know. I'd wager they will sell out of all their units this Holiday for the mere fact that I believe they will have real tight supply (and not because everyone wants one), but I certainly won't place any bets on it

So excited for this, for those like me that preordered from the MS Store website, there is no need to worry. Microsoft gets these direct and will fulfill all their orders before sending extra units to retailers. Microsoft also will most likely ship earlier than other retailers too, it's their product, they have them before anyone else. It wouldn't surprise me if some people end up getting their unit a day or two before launch.
So happy for this system, going to have a blast with Crimson Dragon and Killer Instinct Day One. Also found out that according to my Friday class syllabus nothing is going on that day, so as long as we are on schedule it looks like I will not go to class that day and have a Day One party!
Can I ask you BF COD players out there that are getting both systems a question.
I have both systems pre ordered. I have BF4, and Ghosts pre ordered for Xbox. Is there anyone out there tempted to get COD and BF for the PS4 in order to play it one week earlier?
Im really at a crossroads right now. What do I do?
I know I will have a problem either way.
I have never ordered a launch console online(Im doing gamestop midnight again) but I really dont see why they cant get it to you release date. Unless theres some real serious issues.I'm sure this a common question but, I preorder both my PS4 and Xbox One on Amazon. I never have bought a launch system on Amazon, I always do the 12am Gamestop thing. Will I get it launch day? The 22nd is a Friday will I have to wait till Monday to get it?
Trying to scheduled myself off the correct days.

That depends on which shipping method you chose. Did they offer release date shipping? I have amazon prime which gives you release date shipping on all games/consoles. You should be able to check your order and see the estimated delivery date.

Most likely who is first in lineSo what's the procedure then? Order of people who pre-ordered first?
