    I believe so, according to the tutorial video introducing Cortana

    Yeah, I turned Cortana off. Thanks for the heads-up.

    I'd prefer to say "Xbox, on" than "hey, Cortana, Xbox on".

    This finally got me to hunt up the update. I don't know who you invited, Dills, but I sent you a few suggestions.

    I still remember being so anti-Microsoft and xbox when it first came out. Not until I went over to a friends place and played it did I come around to it. One night of playing Halo2 MP and the next morning I went right to Gamestop and bought one for myself. Halo2 and FIFA were the games I bought, first person I played in FIFA I talked his ear off about that week of English soccer action.

    Sleepy Dogs and Burnout Paradise (BC) will be free in December for Games with Gold. I swear if the only money I spent on games this year was for a gold subscription and EA access I'd still have more games to play than I could finish.

    External hard drive for some reason went Kaput, so decided I'm gonna just say S-K-Roo it and buy an XboxS. Wish I had this problem during black Friday, still some decent deals out there but nothing like what we saw during the Thanksgiving sale.

    if you like the Kinect, be sure to buy the adapter.

    yeah I saw the price of the adaptor, love the Kinect but I can live without it for awhile.

    I thought I could, but the ease of taking a screenshot or record a clip isn't as smooth... that's my biggest issue without it

    I haven't even gotten around to see how it is done without the Kinect. I see I can communicate with Cortana via headset, wouldn't that mean if I am using my headset I could still use the voice commands?

    the xbox s is incredibly quiet.

    press the Xbox guide button on the controller twice and a queue will come up, it'll ask you to press 'Y' to record and 'X' to take a screenshot...

    and I've tried to use Cortona through a headset and haven't had luck so if you figure that out let me know :)

    I turned off the option to use Cortana. She got on my nerves.

    So, you can get a free kinect adapter through Microsoft.

    I contacted microsoft about 2 weeks ago, and got my adapter in the mail today.

    what you'll need is the serial number from your Xbox One S, your Xbox and the Kinect..

    Once ya get a hang of the double tap guide button method it isn't that bad of a work around. Only downside is that I have to wait a good half a minute or so to save the video I intended to. Meaning instead of double tapping right after something I want saved I need to continue to play on for a bit and then double tap.
