Id get Forza over Titanfall. I was in the alpha test a couple weeks ago for Titanfall and it really wasnt that great. Matches were a little too short, maps werent really scaled to the objectives. There was alot of useless areas you could run around far from the object for no reason. For a shooter, BF4 or even COD would be a better buy. More customization in the other FPS's than in Titanfall.

It was an alpha, not the final release of the game. BF3 and 4 were so shitty in beta and they both turned out alright.

Bugs aside it was still pretty crappy. Even with the bugs in BF3 and BF4 I enjoyed those games.

I enjoyed the Alpha release for Titan Fall, I love FPS's but was never big on Mech games. After playing the "demo" I will be picking up the game; it has a different feel to it that many of the other FPS games which I like. This coming from a diehard Battlefield player. If you own a XB1, you have to at least try the exclusive content. You'd be crazy not to own Forza.

So I read a while back they took Media Center Extender out? Is that true for those that own one?

Extends your media from your PC to your Xbox. Such as videos, images and music.

Everything works great for me, except for "xbox on", after it's been off for a while. I think it has to do with the slight echo in the room, I have to walk up to the kinect and say xbox on, before it works. All voice commands work flawlessly after that. I've read other people have had the same issue.

When I would say xbox off it would think I was saying pause then I figured out I have to say xbox turn off.

Do you have to have the Xbox on in order to watch TV from your cable box?

Sorta, the cable box plugs right into the xbox but you can unplug it and just plug it into the tv

I just leave the cable box on, but it does work, if I set it up that way. I have it set to just turn the tv on and off.
