Chris, is your Xbox one with HDMI?
I thought that the "black" xbox just came with the HDMI cable?

yes it has hdmi and a 120gb hard drive... it'd be nice if you could copy the game from the disc to the drive... make for much faster access...
i have no idea wth i'd do with 120gb hard drive otherwise... especially since i can't even figure out how to copy files over to it. Apparently I NEED windows to do that.

i don't know about that. i don't like drugs that mess with your brain chemistry and have side effects like "internal organ liquification" and "sudden onset death" 
I'm five days through now, another five should clear me out 100% of physical nicotine withdrawal symptoms.

It's when multiplayer comes into the picture that there is a huge problem. Now you're connecting to 7 other people (in an 8 person race) that everyone has to "download" your image, plus the processing power to render that image as the car makes every minute change could be taxing compared to the basic shapes they give you.

but now they're allowing 1000 layers, gradients on every layer, with whatever shapes and you're telling me that the most complex of these are smaller than a JPG or GIF or whatever, scaled down and saved down in quality (which any web server/forum software has the capability to do)?
It's kind of like that.
