Today's the day @@jmanz gets greatness. Boarder don't be mad, both new systems are great.

No they aren't. Only the xbox one is great. Today jmanz gets mediocreness and hopefully it's full of red lines of death

 
Well all I have to say is the store better have on or the other tomorrow when I go shopping.
 
Guy at work here was complaining this morning about his new Xbox One. Guess he gets a memory leak with it? I'm gonna have to ask him if it blue screens or what. He says it's constantly freezes up when playing COD. He thought it had something to do with the hibernation mode it goes into?

I've never seen this on my Xbox One when playing call of duty, or anything really. I think you are making it up

 
No I'm not, when he comes by again I'll ask him about it. It's just what he said to me. I thought maybe it was a bug or something. I haven't really kept up with the xbox problems. The only thing I knew was the cd-rom thing.
 
Ok just talked to him. He said it was a little Window that popped up in the bottom right hand corner that actually said something about memory. He said the system was very slow before it happened. He said he would take a picture if it happened again.
 
Other than the few having issues with the BD-Rom the only issues I've heard of are:

A) People set them vertical rather than horizontal, which it clearly says not to do anyway, and I doubt this would have anything to do with memory

B) People use the recently found combination to enable "dev" mode (or fall for the online prank that says dev mode offers backward compatibility). In the first case, MS has explicitly said not to do it as it isn't the only thing needed and can cause issues, and in the latter it is a hoax as dev mode does NOT offer backward compatibility. If he happens to have turned this on, then I suppose it could cause memory issues.

If either of those is not the case, I don't want a picture and I can't help. Does he have any other games? Does it happen in other games? Basically either get ahold of Activision/Infinity Ward if it is just their game, or get ahold of Xbox Support of it happens over time on any game.

Oooh.. one other one, did he go into settings and turn on the 'enable fast resume' for games (or something like that), which is flagged in the settings as a beta setting? Just remembered one other thread I read somewhere that suggested turning that off if it was on

 
Just checked and he is actually playing a PS4........

Kidding but if you google search for xbox one memory error the first option should be a link to the xbox forums and sounds like others have gotten the message as well. The page is blocked here so can't read it myself.

 
Well, mostly that is people saying they think it gets slower over time, nothing about a popup saying there's one. Either way, the repeated suggestion is to turn off the 'Instant On', so the console fully shuts down and doesn't hold state in memory, or to cold boot it (hold the power button on the console for around 8 seconds at which time it will fully restart)
 
This just in. On the Xbox One you can get achievements and Gamerscore, while on the PS4 you can still only earn lame trophies ;)
 
First, I see they announced late yesterday sometime that 2 million Xbox Ones have been sold in the first 18 days. Seems both consoles are not sitting on shelves long.

So, after the let down of @@jmanz not having purchased an Xbox One, I did have to check Amazon to see if they were still in stock, since I know they were for a while yesterday. They are not.

I did however notice that the Xbox One is at the top of Amazon's Top 100 in Best Sellers, Hot New Releases and Most wished for items in the Video games category. PS4 was 2nd in the most wished for

 
Yep, pulled the update down Tuesday evening. It's nice that it downloads in the background if you use the standby mode, so I played a bit, shut it off to do other things and it just downloaded the update after that. It does however fully shutdown once complete, so you have to use a controller rather than saying "Xbox On" to turn it on and finish applying the update.
 
I will admit the xbox updates are hands down better than the Playstation and least on the 360 vs. the PS3.

The 360 system updates were a little better (generally not so huge). The game updates were insanely better, a few MB update on the 360 could be a few GB update to the PS3 version of a game. The 360 I think allowed handing updates as just pushing delta's (changes) in the code and not a huge amount of code.Time will tell what that looks like on the new systems.
