Traded in my original 360 at the MS Store today walked out with the Assassins Creed Unity Bundle for $250. Not bad get AC Black Flag and a code to download Unity. Now have a 2nd XB1 for the family room and the kids. All for a 360 that hasn't been hooked up in 2+ years.

Nice deal!

If you purchased it yesterday between 1-4 pm, you should have also gotten a free year of Xbox Live.

I too picked up the Assassin's Creed bundle yesterday, but would like to sell the codes if anyone is interested. If I can sell them, I'm much more inclined to keep the system.

I'm willing to sell both for $40.

I have an extra 360 laying around. What did you have to do to get it ready? Reset??

Good article on the state of digital downloads. It needs improvement.

Same here.

Also a PS3 I need to dump.

[Diablo25]

Looks like I can get $100 from Amazon for the 360 I have. Anyone know if I need to have a controller with the console? I only have one controller and I want to keep that for the 360 I'm keeping.

I sold my Unity code for 55 and my Black Flag Code for 20 on ebay.

PK got himself a heck of a deal.

Well, I'm back in the good graces with MS and Xbox One. My username is RCJH22.

Thanks, Dan! That was a deal even a tightwad like me couldn't refuse!

That's awesome man. Please let me know your impressions after a week or so about XBO. PM me if necessary.

Nintendo Pres speaks :

http://www.businessinsider.com/nintendo ... ce-2014-11

“If you look at the other two competitive platforms, fundamentally, what’s the difference. They have a lot of shared content. Look at it from the standpoint of, what don’t they have? They don’t have our games. They don’t have Mario and Zelda. I’d much rather be where Nintendo is, with a differentiated platform, differentiated set-up experiences that we can provide uniquely to the consumer.”

[Wilk5280]

Sounds like you're trying to talk yourself into not grabbing one. So don't!

[Wilk5280]

Thanks, Dan! That was a deal even a tightwad like me couldn't refuse!

Yeah, you definitely got a smokin' deal there!

[sportdan30]

Sorry for the confusion...changed my gamertag to sportdan41. Called XBL and was able to get them to credit me back the $10. I figured it's too confusing to come up with a completely different gamertag.

I forgot to add, if anyone buys a PS4 or Xbox One, make sure to pick up a mover's guide packet from the post office. There's a 10 percent BB coupon you can apply to the purchase. It deducted about $30 off the price of the system.

So far so good. Probably going to pick up a Kinect when I find one on the cheap. And I definitely need a play and charge kit.

[pk500]

Put your Gamertag in your signature, Dan. Makes it far easier for everyone here to find it.

[MizzouRah]

Play and charge kit for sure.. for both controllers. Darn things eat batteries like candy.

[sportdan30]

Will do. Is there a way to send friends requests from someone else's friendst list? Or do I have to type everyone's in manually?

Going through other friends lists is the best way to find the gamertag of folks you you know. Also, this isn't really so much friend requests anymore. What you are doing is building a list of people who you follow. They may or may not follow you back, but they still are a part of your gaming.

I follow Major Nelson, as well as several other game journalists, mostly as a way to see what they are playing, and send the occasional message. This week Major Nelson has been on while playing the MCC, including streaming it on Twitch. Same goes for others. They don't need to follow you back for you to be able to follow their activities. And just because you follow them, they don't see your activities. But Arthur Gies and Major Nelson pop up in Forza Horizon 2, and when they post videos and acquire achievements, I see them.

They call it friends and followers, but it is more like Twitter. You have people you follow, and people that follow you.

Nothing just brought it in with cables and controller, they test it to make sure it works.

Anyone's XB1 acting flaky after the Nov update? Mine's doing small, but annoying, things like I go into 'settings' and I can't get back to the dashboard or it's showing the 'no tv signal screen' (I turn the DTV box off/on and the video come back).

My wife actually did the leg work. Was this included in the box or something? Do you have a link to anywhere it says this because I will call them back.

Negative. I have a Kinect-less XB1, for context.

Here you go. Scroll to the bottom of the page. Make sure the store she bought it at is one of the stores involved in the deal. If not, I know several people on CAG who were able to have their BB store override it. By the way, my store wasn't even aware of the deal even though they were a listed one. It was not in the box.
