Makes sense. My 3ds xl is tougher than leather; dropped it a few times now.

What are some new features that really stand out to you? (Did you have an XBox 360?)
I did. This one has a Blu-Ray, but that one should have been obvious. The Kinect is much better, and if you're clear with your commands, the voice stuff works well. The video upload stuff is pretty cool. I haven't tried hooking my cable box up to it yet, but that's us supposed to work well.

They really went more with the gaming AND entertainment system on this one. I haven't had a chance to play Dead Rising 3 yet but it should be a good time.

That is awesome. I'm looking forward to more impressions. I'm living vicariously though you XBoners.

That's horrible.

Speaking of selling Xboxes, my 360 started freezing on me, and since I mostly play ps3 these days I took it to gamestop to trade it in. I was banking on the possibility that it wouldn't freeze when they tested it.

I got lucky :) 100 bucks store credit for a busted 360 and some games.

GTA V is on sale at Amazon right now for $33.99...don't think I'm going to pull the trigger, though.

Played BF4 and Forza on the Xbox One yesterday.

While I could see the jump in next gen, especially with Forza, BF still doesn't wow with its visuals. Wish I had never seen the early footage that was PC. I be like "whoa"

I finally got the new Zelda game. WOW. I think this is the best since Majora's Mask... Perhaps that isn't saying too much since Skyward Sword, Phandom Hourglass, Spirit Train, and Twilight Princess were all great, but still missing a little something. Wind Waker was my previous favorite since OOT/Majora's but this one is right on par. Just fucking excellent.

I'm in gaming heaven right now. Zero Escape, Zelda, Fire Emblem Awakening, Monster Hunter, and Scribblenauts Unmasked (along with a few downloadable Eshop games. What a fucking great week.

Also the new Zelda 3dsXL is just beautiful. I feel lucky to have gotten one.

You really should fight him for it and play it yourself.

I think it's actually missing features the ps3 version has, so it's worse.
