I am now a blonde girl, wearing a nice dress, with high heels. It all looks stunning, but it just isn't me. Deleting these settings seems to be an impossible task. Any ideas on how to totally give myself a make-over to become the man I am, and/or how to delete the Xbox account? She has somehow changed my region, so it does not match my phone or Windows 8 account anymore...

I just wanted to put this here so that I can pat myself on the back later if I'm right. hahaha

We know that with the XBOX ONE, all games will need to have a Publisher backing them. This has made people say that MS is abandoning Indie Games.

We also know that Indie Games rarely, if ever, needed the power of the 360. The games are much smaller, and are focused more on game mechanics that stunning high polygon visuals.

What if the plan that MS hasn't revealed yet is that the 360 will be supported for several years to come? Publishers will still make games for it, and the rules regarding Indie development on it will be relaxed. No more $40,000 fees for game patches after the first one. A much cheaper and smaller barrier to entry. A hub that is focused on promoting Indie Games?

Do you think it's possible that this happens?

If it does, does that make me a genius? ...or maybe just psychic?

Which ever it is, I think my powers should be worth a lot of money. ]]> XBOX Winning Guy http://forums.wpcentral.com/xbox/230669-xbox-360-future-indie-paradise.html Xbox one with out kinect http://forums.wpcentral.com/xbox/230422-xbox-one-out-kinect.html Fri, 14 Jun 2013 21:07:40 GMT I don't need the Kinect I feel bad its not fair to the Kinect and those who developed it none of the games I play will implement the Kinect in there games or they would have done so already im going to buy an Xbox one but the Kinect first of does not sit on my tv as it a thin led so that Kinect will sit on the floor catch dust for what save them for those who loved and played with kinect ]]> XBOX paulxxwall http://forums.wpcentral.com/xbox/230422-xbox-one-out-kinect.html Xbox engineer reveals Microsoft’s true intentions with DRM on the Xbox One http://forums.wpcentral.com/xbox/230388-xbox-engineer-reveals-microsoft%92s-true-intentions-drm-xbox-one.html Fri, 14 Jun 2013 13:32:50 GMT Xbox engineer reveals Microsoft's true intentions with DRM on the Xbox One - VR-Zone

The thing is we suck at telling the story. The whole point of the DRM switch from disc based to cloud based is to kill disc swapping, scratched discs, bringing discs to friends house, trade-ins for **** value with nothign going back to developers, and high game costs. If you want games cheaper then 59.99, you have to limit used games somehow. Steam’s model requires a limited used game model...

Everyone and their mother complains about how gamestop ****s them on their trade ins, getting 5$ for their used games. We come in trying to find a way to take money out of gamestop, and put some in developers and get you possibly cheaper games and everyone bitches at MS. Well, if you want the @#$@ing from Gamestop, go play PS4...

But I got this 360 (current gen, not the new E3 one) less than 3 years ago. It is prepared to last a bit longer.

Like Microsoft did the the 360 (Arcade, Core, Pro, Elite, and slim) I except them to release an updated 2nd generation Xbox One hopefully in E3 2015 or earlier. I don't use the Xbox much, and I expect it to play next generation games. It might not be as good, but it is good enough and I can wait for the 2nd generation One.

Anyone else with me? Or will you all buy One's now? Or buy a PS4?

First of all, is there anyway to make it so that what you are viewing on ur windows phone shows up on your Xbox? If this doesn't already work then it totally should.

I went into the phone's music app and searched for some music - listened to a sample - but went to other music - sample wouldn't stop and then other samples kept playing - could find a way to stop them! So had to turn off phone.

How can I stop samples playing without turning phone off???
