I think the 0.4% is probably just manufacturing error rates that can't really be avoided, shouldn't be a problem anyway.

I decided to just buy the console rather than a bundle. Game had a few packages but none of them actualy saved you any money, which in my mind just completely destroys the point of buying the items in a bundle in the first place.

For the time being I'll probably just upgrade my ps3 version of CoD and play Contrast/Resogun (both free) until something else catches my eye.

Interesting to see the PS4 suffering from overheating issues on release. Sony came out with a stat that 0.4% of consoles will be broken at release. Kind of mysterious that they knew this figure so exactly.

Is anyone on here getting one of the new consoles on release?

Usually am tempted to get consoles on day of release but not this time, never felt as underwhelmed about gaming as I do right now.

Makes me laugh when games companies get all pretentious about releases. "Lets copy Apple". There aren't many games that can get away with it like that, Grand Theft Auto, Call of Duty and FIFA probably the only ones who could manage it properly without it negatively affecting sales.

I never liked the game, the basic gameplay mechanics were all so awkward and clunky, same as the Elder Scrolls series.

Don't be daft...surely not. Heard rumours of an announcement, nothing more

A completely farcial story from ... the Daily Mail !!

Ok, its been widely reported elsewhere too, but what utter nonsense.

Why would he save up all year (clearly anticipating all year that he was going to buy a XBox One) and not bother to pre-order (only needed a small deposit and balance on collection)? Why would he spend £450 on a next gen console for a 4 year old?

It's a very clever scam. 'Pay' your mate £450 for a photo, have that mate delete his new ebay account. Call the press and claim you were sold a photo of an Xbox and make several thousand pounds in fees for selling his story.
