So, I've been a die-hard COD fan since COD4 on Xbox 360 and I have to say the series is starting to wear on me. Granted, I have yet to play the single-player campaign of Ghosts and my perspective is solely from the multiplayer. I will say this coming from the 360 version of Ghosts the lag, visuals, and overall performance is leaps and bounds ahead. I play on a 50mbps connection and on the 360 every kill-cam showed my killers in completely different locations than on my live, pre-death screen. On the other hand, on the Xbox One I've yet to experience the same thing. I don't know if they are in fact using dedicated servers on Xbox One or it's just less people with bad connections (20-30k in XBO playlists vs 200-300k on 360).
Anyway, this still plays like a COD game in multiplayer and has some interesting new killstreaks and a lot of returning ones from previous games. Also, back are the support, assault, and lone-wolf (blank on real name) kill-streaks. All in all, I enjoy the game and if you are looking for more of the same but with better graphics and better performance by all means pick it up on Xbox One!

I have been listening to TNAF on youtube for a while now and finally bought their new album and I do not regret it in the slightest. I was initially afraid maybe only the songs they had on youtube were good on the album but boy were my fears unfounded. This album is great and I've listened to it continuously since I have bought it.

Bioshock is the type of game I've waited a very long time for. I've played other FPSs on the 360 that were reviewed very highly but ended up not being my cup of tea so I was weary about this one. Well, this game is just plain awesome from visuals to voice-acting to story.
