XBOX One

I bought a refurbished XBOX One and felt that it was very much worth the cost, however there are things that XBOX 360 buyers wanting to upgrade to the latest console need to know. The first and most important thing is that games are not played from the disc, they are installed to the XBOX hard drive and played from there.. So, a 500 GB drive does not go very far! But,, you can buy external drives for to the 500GB version. Second, there is a known bug in the consoles software that makes installing and updating game terribly slow. Supposedly MS knows about this but it has not been addressed. Third, once you turn it on be ready for a TON of updates that need to be installed! Fourth, I don't care for the user interface nor do I care for the one that they recently upgraded to. You would think making it simple would be a priority when putting out a product like this. Fifth, as time goes by you will find that some of your old XBOX 360 titles will work on the One through an emulator! Sixth, the unit runs HOT so I would recommend getting a cooling fan that mounts on top of the unit.Read full review
