That requires it to be in standby mode all the time so it technically isn't booting up at that point. It is coming out of sleep mode.

Not if you've got quick boot enabled, pretty much instantly on then the Xbox One.

The console is fine but the box was damaged, it had a big scratch that actually broke the cardboard. The xbox seems that didn't have a scratch, but we'll see when it is actually opened for christmas.

I would hope it does. The boot times on the PS4 and XB1 are horrendous.

PC breaks down. You don't don't fancy firing the PC up for a quick 10 minute thrash. You've taken the XBox on holiday with you. Your drunken mates fancy a go after the pub. Lots of reasons if you think about it.

Having played none of these games though, should I not play this first? I don't have an Xbox.

You could but only this and 4 are on PC. They're all pretty much the same though.

If this was for pc and xbox then ok deal but for a game of this age and only habing it on one platform.... It seems expensive. You could get gears 4 which is brand new, looks better and runs on both platforms for 26. So if you want both platforms that one is the better buy. If you only want xbox then gears one is probably just a couple of quid.

I can't see why anyone who has a gaming PC would want to play this on an Xbox One.
