You may have already come across Neogaf user going by the name of CBOAT before since he is well known for releasing Xbox One info before official release. Those of you that do know CBOAT will know why we had to translate his latest comments: "I hope you aren't fans of 1080P on Xbox One.When hardware is released you'll see what I mean about issues. Upclocks too risk everywhere, 2014 was a better idea.Sounds like there’ll be problems a-la Xbox 360 with reliability and it was rushed out to be in 2013 rather than 2014 when planned." As you can see from the translated comment, it appears that the Xbox One has been rushed out a year early with known power issues. We must make it perfectly clear that this isn't fact ,however CBOAT has been right about many other " predictions ". "I never said anything about Forza being 1080p, but they should make it. Exception, not the rule though, never mind trying to match eyecandy thanks to esram, 720p- 900p will be the norm on xbone just you watch" An Xbox one developer has jumped to the defence of the Xbox One on Reddit commenting that the Xbox One in question is in fact a Dev kit : “I actually am aware of that and know a few of them. You should know we’ve gotten many devkits throughout this past year. The console in question is a zebra turned stress machine for hardware/heat issues testing.” So what are your thoughts, have MS rushed the Xbox One out just to contend with Sony's release of the PS4?

definitely rushed it i thinks its due to when the Xbox 360 came out a full year before the ps3 which hit Sony hard until recent years and i think if Microsoft did release it in 2014 they wouldn't have a leg to stand on, realistically who would pay a extra £80 of the original ps4 price for a console that came out a year later with mostly the same games. Microsoft probably knows that its risky to release the xone early but don't want to go through what Sony did
eh 900p, no use for that 4k resolution HDMI included then... as long as the games are sharp, smooth etc they should still look amazing at 720p
M$ never learn,can see the first shipment of boxes released before xmas/2014 being defective in some way or other,just like the 360!
Oh dear MS never learn reason i aint buying one as there will be many flaws when its released as per usual.
What can you expect from a console, PS4 will upscale resolutions too. They care too much about size, they shouldn't worry about size and throw in a high end GPU. MS admitted some games run at 900p, and said Forza is 1080p at 60FPS. As for the apparent heat issues, they have a similar airflow/fan setup as a Xbox slim, but with more spacing, I know I've never seen a Slim overheat.
You will see when you buy it the first week (First shipment) their will be a lot of things wrong with it...
Lmao you do not know what you are going on about mate. If you look at my thread I am buying the X1 but not getting COD so tell me am I a cod fanboy?
Glad I didn't preorder the Xbox One. YET. I would wait a year to get it. I'm picking up the PS4 first. My budget can only afford one next-gen console. Picking up a PS4 is a better bet. Last release, I picked up the 360 first. Had lots of issues! RROD. But I got it fixed since and still using it till this day.
I told you guys not to order the first shipment. I know the feeling of having something when it first releases but sometime it pays to be savy, you savy. Sent from my LG-C800 using Tapatalk 2
Well said Cptn , sometimes early adopters pay the price. I will be waiting it out to see what develops.
What? :fail: I'm sorry but that is one of the dumbest statements I've ever seen. That's like saying,"You're a leather fanboy because you buy a Cadillac"
Simply put Xbox One is just a terrible idea and anyone who get's one is a cod fan boy it is a app console with sports... terrible gaming life we have... wait, what? I hate call of duty .. And I'm getting the one .. You sir got the award for stupidest comment of the year
Man M$ never learn from X360 RROD? Its like asking peps to mod games without getting all info before starting. " Look before you leap " This always come back to bite you in the arse.
Im sure Both consoles will have there issues. But its what to what expect I guess if you get one straight away. Hope an ODDE device Gets released for the Xbo
If you're worried about heat issues, they most likely won't be an issue. The heatsink reminds me of the original heatsink with the copper pipe running through it, that was the best heatsink to date.
