The hardware isn't great and their online account management sucks (purchases are linked to the console itself so if the console messes up and you get a new one you might not be able to get your digital games back) but the games themselves are fun as hell.

Super Mario 3D world is my favorite game from last year.

The biggest complaint I have with Xbox One is no games to play. BF4 isn't amazing and Titanfall gets old quick and both are on PC. I just bought Dead Rising 3 hopefully it's OK.

^I got it, I hated it. Waste of money. Dead Rising 3 that is.

Wow, that sucks. One of my friends has it and wants me to get it as well. The games do seem fun.

Shoot, just paid 30 bucks for it.

You never know, you might like it Tim.

Yeah, I got it for $20 bucks when I bought Fifa (they had a special at Toys'R'Us back then), but I could have gotten something else and that's my regret. It looks cool, but it's just like the other ones. I feel like they rushed it to get it released for XBox One. I mean if you like making random weapons, like shooting dildos out of leaf blowers to kill zombies, it's fun in that sense, haha, but yeah. I could also be biased because I had recently finished the other Dead Rising's like a week before getting this.

Also, the loading times are freaking horrible. Maybe GTA spoiled me on that one, but shit, I expected better.

Also, Herm, if you like playing games like Mario Kart 8, or Super Smash Bros, Mario Party, etc. Get it, it is fun to play, and in comparison to Xbox One or PS4, obviously it isn't on the same level, but the games for it are different, more laid back and family fun orientated. It's also not as pricey as the others and I'm sure you can get a good deal on a bundle for it, like the Mario Kart 8 bundle. Might not be there hardware wise, but it's fun and you won't really regret it. It also (in my experience at least) won't fuck up or burn out on you and need to get repaired anytime soon.

Ugh loading should not be a thing anymore, it reeks of laziness.

I actually have not beat one or two. The zombie killing can be fun but once you cone across a psycho the difficulty seems to up itself by 100. I think I got pretty far on 2 but I rage quit 1.

I'm typing on my phone. I thought it would be easier with a new phone but perhaps my fingers are just too big. Big hands. Maybe I should get a note instead of a droid?

My dad has a Wii that he plays bowling and golf on sometimes. I'd play it more often, but I never bought games for it cause it's in the livingroom and I literally never am able to. From my perspective, Nintendo games seem to be really good gameplay wise. But it's cartoony and kid-friendly which makes grown men afraid of being judged for it. Eh.

I love the first two Dead Rising games. The psycho fights really are hard as shit compared to the zombies. I love the crazy characters they come up with though

Sux to hear that three is no good. I just got the second not too long ago and haven't beaten it yet

I got Dead Rising 2 when it was Free w/ Gold. Enjoyed it, but I rage quit when I died pretty far into Day 1 and forgot to ever save.
