It was just another bug. I had to do another power cycle.

You think I should have Amazon send me a new one?

Quantum Break looking pretty slick.

Absolutely. I've had no such bugs, but since it's happening to you more than once, I'd swap it.

I liked Alan Wake but didn't love it. I'm hoping I'll like this game better. Looks really good so far.

No issues here with X1, Comcast box, harmony remote and wife.

Yes, my setup passed the WAF test!

My wife doesn't care if I have it set up with Directv, she was just saying wait til it's patched. After all the hassles, I agreed.

I received my replacement from Microsoft, and got everything set back up. I re-downloaded Call of Duty : Ghosts, but forgot the free-fall pack was leaving on 12/5/13. I was pleasantly surprised though when I booted up CoD and it prompted me to download the Free-fall pack since I already owned it.

It took another call to Microsoft support (the 3rd) to finally get the code for my free game, and I'm still downloading now. I'm not sold yet on digital purchases this is the second ~35GB file I've installed, and I haven't made it all the way through one yet without the "installation stopped" error.

I realize these are huge, but does it take everyone a long time to download these? My internet is rated at 25Mbps down/5Mbps up. I still need to install some of the smaller apps so I'll see if they seem faster.

Now Madden is hanging at the loading screen. A quick search showed it's a common problem so I dunno.

Any time my console hangs up, I just pull the power cord out of the back then plug it back in. Seems to work pretty good after that. Where's my CTRL+ALT+DELETE button?

I don't see anything on any forum that indicates they've released codes. It's freaking obnoxious to not be able to control a movie with a universal remote.
You obviously don't have a Harmony remote. Mine works perfectly with the Xbox One.

Yeah that ended up working again. Seems to be the norm.

Guys! Peggle 2 is out now! I'll be waiting for reviews to confirm that it's 1080p/60fps. I'd hate to spend $12, only to find out this is 50% less fun than it should be.

Yes, finally -- Kinect support! Because if there was one thing if there was one thing everyone was begging for in Peggle, it was a less accurate aiming system.

This makes me want to jump up and donkey punch the ground.

LOOK AT THOSE GRAPHIX GUISE! I think they quadrupled the polygon count in each peg. Holy balls that's clear!

Who am I kidding, I'll be buying this later on today via smart glass from my office JUST BECAUSE I CAN (or should be able to) AND THEN HAVE IT LOADED FOR ME WHEN I GET HOME TONIGHT!!!!

It's a fun game so far. Never played Peggle beforehand.

Yeah. In the meantime, http://store.xbox.com/ will let you buy it and it should pre-install.

Nope, not buying it now. I wanted full smartglass penetration. Just like last week, eh Music?
