I have no idea why anyone would get mad over it. :lol:

In that it's filled with bitter Xbox fanboys that are super-easy to upset? Agreed.

And desperation.

It is a good idea, but they are right it does smell, given as people have said the likes of TR and other games where they've stuck the Xbox logo onto the end of adverts. Maybe a more appropriate advert would have been an MS labelled bottle of medicine and MS could have said "now we get a taste of our own medicine".

Yes?

It seems kinda petulant and has more than a whiff of double standards. Funny to see the usual Xbots kicking off.

Good to see that the mods have read up on the Mod code of conduct. :dread:

Pretty much, yeah, considering they've had a similar marketing deal with Call of Duty for literally years and announced a similar deal with Assassin's Creed.

Skype 1.8 for Xbox One now has photo viewing and enhanced Snap experience

Since we launched Skype for Xbox One*, we’ve been listening to your feedback and continuing to make updates to improve your Skype experience. With this update, we’re excited to add the ability to view photos from mobile devices; we’re also continuing to evolve Snap functionality, which we announced a few months ago.

Skype 1.8 for Xbox One allows you to view photos sent from mobile phones on Skype for Xbox One. Skype users from Windows Phone and iOS mobile devices can now share pictures with Skype for Xbox One users either in a 1:1 or group chat. If there are multiple photos being shared, you can start a slide show to view all the photos, right on your large screen.

In addition to photo sharing, we’ve worked hard to bring you more improvements to Skype in Snap mode, such as:
•You’ll now see friends and family more clearly when Skype is in Snap mode. The frame rate has doubled and the size of the video window has increased.
•You can now answer a call in Snap mode while using other apps using voice controls. This means, if you’re watching TV or playing a game and you get a Skype call, when you say “Xbox answer,” the call will automatically Snap, and won’t interrupt your TV or gaming experience. Or, if you prefer, you can also change your Skype settings to answer a call in full screen.
•Now, you can view your recent and favorite contacts and make calls directly from Skype in Snap mode instead of having to go into the full screen Skype experience.
•You’ll also see previews of messages you may have received while Skype is Snapped, and easily go to full screen to respond.

Really? I've come into this cold and I don't see it like that. I'm not sure if the perfume-bad smell analogy actually holds any truth to it but I guess you'd know better than me.

I saw it as quite a clever marketing loophole, to be honest.

I think some people need to just chill and stop getting so worked up about the Sony-Microsoft rivalry. I guess the PS4 owners are bored because they don't have a new IP worth playing whereas Xboners - in Titanfall - have one of the best multiplayer shooters of all time?

gooseberry fool. I started this post not meaning to get involved. :fp:

A bold claim. Personally it doesn't hold a candle to at least 5 I can reel off the top of my head.

I didnt even think of Sony when seeing advert yet the SDF came in here to post about it then when Xbox One owners get miffed we get called out as Xbots. This place is a melter sometimes.

I go into the Driveclub thread and get strawberry floating battered. Place is so skewed its beyond Blatant.

I hope your list of five doesn't include any games with the word 'duty' anywhere in their title.
