I finally bought an Xbox One after having owned my PS4 since launch day in 2013. I pretty much assumed the consoles would be roughly the same in user experience but MAN was I wrong.
The UI is sluggish, I have to disconnect from the internet in order to install games from a disk (Destiny was stuck at 75% for 6 hours), the store is impossible to find anything, it takes forever to check your friends list/ achievements, and I cant't tell if games are downloading with the system powered down (which it is supposed to do).
Is there something wrong with my specific console, or is this the general experience on the Xbox One? Is Microsoft doing anything to address these issues?
These are just my initial impressions of the console, since I have only had it for about two days, but so far the Xbox One feels really rough compared to the PS4.
Does the shout out from Contradiction bring up any strange ethical gray area? Like Giant Bomb is obviously aware of the effect of their coverage on smaller games, but when those games reach back, even just in thanks, I don't know it just seems strange.
They aren't reviewing it, nor are they even telling people to buy it.
