I forgot that I asked my sister to order some cheap knockoff 7.1 headphones for Christmas and I didn't think about them not even working for the XB1/PS4. Sure enough when I plug them into the USB port in the back of the Xbox I get nothing. Any idea if any support for USB headphones will ever come or should I just have her ship them back to China? They are these:

You will have to buy one of these in order for it to work, otherwise you will have to wait till February. I would ship those back or resell anyway for something better like Astros.

I have a feeling I'll be getting one of these tomorrow. I have money burning a hole in my pocket. I already ordered four games last night thanks to that Best Buy deal.

Best Buy deal?

[Twigg4075]

Best Buy deal?

Buy 2 select XBone and/or PS4 games/accessories and get a $25 gift card. Plus all of the XBone exclusives (Ryse, Dead Rising, Forza) are on sale for $50. If you have GCU then they're $40. So I got all three of those and Madden ($48 with GCU) for $168 + tax and $50 in gift cards. Plus if you spend $100 or more you get an extra $15 gc. So tomorrow I'm hoping to get a console and and extra controller and get another $40 in gift cards. Boom.

Decisions, decisions. The only consoles they have to order as part of the $25 gift card deal are bundles with either a controller or game. Of course they only count as one item. My only option to take advantage of the deal, since I already ordered the games I want is to get Knack for PS4.
So should I get another game I really don't need to get $40 in gift cards or just get the console and only get a $15 card?

Is Knack worth $35 to you?

Yeah, that's the thing. Probably not. I'm just going to order the console and call it a day. I'm already getting $50 in gift cards from the four games.

Thought I'd let you all in on a little trick I found.

I used to DL movies onto my PC, transfer them to a USB drive, then plug and play from the 360...I wanted to find out how to do the same for the Bone.

Basically, instead of transferring, you need to DL the XBox Video app. You go to the video file you want to play on your PC, right click, "Play to" whatever your Bone is named on your network. Pretty instant and easy to use.

This is no different than the 360 has had for years just so you know. Anyone with a 360 can utilize it too.

sorry riley i must lol my friend....you can watch music, video and pics from your pc to your 360 or ps3 via your network. no need to file transfer

idk about the bone, but i do know this is a feature the PS4 CANT do...why the fuck they dont allow you to watch video from the PC on a next next gen console is beyond fucking me, and a game killer.

my ps3 is basically used as a media hub so i can watch video from my PC to my bigscreen.

I know this. I used to directly stream directly from my PC via the 360 all the time. It was a better quality on my USB, that's why I did it that way for a while. My network hasn't always been the most stream friendly.

There is no program on the Bone right now that you can use to stream directly from your PC (starting at the console). The only way to watch streaming video from your PC right now is to push it to the device.

I am a lot less idiotic than you all give me credit for.

This thing is pretty slick, although I can't get it to go directly to a channel. Not sure what I'm doing wrong? I'm saying "Xbox NBC" but nothing happens.
