if so how have you corrected it?

i thought it was just ESPN, but it was all the stations. it would be normal for 15-20 seconds then freeze for a bit then resume for a bit and freeze again...


any input would be greatly appreciated
I had that happen. I tried turning off the receiver and back on. Seemed to fix itself.

It seems as though everyone is using theirs...I have been asking

I just realized I also have a PS3 code to download some Ratchet Game for trade.

My C3PO controller is the same way. The battery never charges and it only works plugged in.

So I think my console has the leafblower Blu-ray drive issue. I haven't heard it do it again, but once after powering it on, it was making that noise, until I turned it off. It hasn't happened again yet though. Has anyone else noticed it come and go?

Does the XBONE not do 5.1 sound? It shows 5.1 uncompressed as an output option, but in Netflix, cable control, and DR3, it seems like stereo (NF and cable I'm positive are stereo instead of 5.1).

Powerstar Golf is rad. It's simple 3-click, courses are basic, but interesting enough (Actually, I'm still only one the first) and the cloud stuff is great (which EA has done in the past already). But I think it'll be a nice pick up and play game for those quiet nights where other games might be too much.

If you go into settings and find troubleshooting, it shows up as beta (surround sound). But it still has issues for now. Half the time when I'm watching TV, I get the audio through all five speakers, including the surrounds. The other half of the time, it's working like it's supposed to. They said they will patch it in the near future.

Mine shows up as PCM and DTS. The 360 would show DD.

Looks like "Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty". I think it came in the box for the newest game.

Awesome! I bought it today but have not played it yet.

Can I just say how awesome it was to turn on my console, search for the golf game, buy it and then turn my console off without even touching a controller. I actually did it all while putting on and tying my shoes, barely even looking at the screen. These voice controls are amazing.

I just got an email from amazon that they refunded me the $10 on my preordered Dead Rising 3. I didn't even ask them to! Awesome company!

Yeah Amazon is cool with that kind of thing.

So what's the deal with Killer Instinct? You only have one fighter to choose unless you buy more?

Turned on my Xbox 360 for the first since Thursday. OMG I feel like being in ancient times, no, really! For reals!

So is this thing supposed to be on for the better part of the day? Like even when you're just watching tv? If I'm watching tv or listening to music, then decide to play a game, then my son is watching tv and my wife will watch tv or whatnot.

Basically the thing was on for 12 hours straight last night. But it wasn't hot at all. In fact it was barely warm.

Those are streaming video, so it takes a minute (or more in my case) for them to load in and start playing.

Or even a demo or something for Ryse.
I am almost certain it was announced months ago that there would be no demos on Xbox One. I could be remembering incorrectly, but evidence suggests I'm not.

Same for me, and since I ordered it using the 20% off deal they had back in August, I ended up getting it for $37. Not bad!

I know they mentioned they weren't requiring demos. I just assumed that many games would still have them - especially the arcade titles.

And especially launch games.

Just now started Assassin's Creed. Beautiful game but it stutters more than I ever expected. Thought it might only happen during cutscenes but that sadly is not the case.
