Next-gen Xbox finally shown off. Xbox One - the all-in-one system.





Thoughts?

They are showing off what they can do with live TV.

I am curious if they will implement this for other countries, and if they do, how.

Snap function, grab and go home, easy commands and voice recognition are quite awesome features.

"At Xbox we're focused on how you play and how you're entertained," Whitten says, talking about cloud-based and always connected technology that powers all of Xbox One's features.

who didn't see that one coming?

It doesn't require you to be online for many of its features. Individual quotes are the worst.

And they have already said it won't be needed to play games.

really because it sounds exactly like he's explicitly saying it requires you to be online when you want to use anything. I haven't seen anything like what you're saying, and I'd love to be proved wrong.

You made me google! I can provide around 50 more links if you like me to pm them, or you could google them yourself.

I will say that right now information from the xbox one conference is limited. And they are barely showing EA games.

I could also be proved wrong. So let us wait our judgement, shall we?

Couldn't find a better name for your next console? 720 didn't sound that bad.

I agree. Even Durango sounded better, imo.

a bunch of speculation versus things that the guy just explicitly stated.

yeah I think I'll be tending towards trusting what he said.

The stream in a nutshell so far:

Looks interesting as a rival to PS4. Waiting for the official specs and performance figures.

And also looking for PS5 and Xbox Two.

Was way more impressed by the PS4 reveal...
Also; COD's story looks pretty interesting.
And they didn't even say anything about the Always Online pomegranate.

No backwards compatibility.

They didn't announce anything except how they're trying to make this the best cable box on the market... or whatever.

He didn't state that at all, and you're the one speculating.

Edit: Nevermind, xbox dead in the water. lol microsoft, lol.

Well that was underwhelming. The only actual gameplay footage we saw was a few seconds of Call of Duty.

No used games on Xbox One

Data is tied to the console itself.

So, the only in game footage was CoD?. Because EA was a video and Forza 5 too. I think I'll be getting PS4 as my second console for this generation.

@Above, nope no xbox for me. Get my money Sony!!!

So, apparently these are the stocks post reveal...

 Spoiler

Not that it really matters, stuff like no used games and so on is such a big turn-off for me personally, i'll just stick with my PC.

Always online is (semi)true + reactivaation fee huh.



I legitimately didn't think anyone in the industry was that stupid.
