Xbox, A New Generation Revealed - Xbox.com

ForbiddenX 05-21-2013 09:10 AM

It's called the "Xbox One"... seriously could've chosen a better name

yeah watching the stream looks like a cheap htpc case imo

and while kinect control is neat i dont like the idea of having a camera on all the time lol

Vansterdam 05-21-2013 09:29 AM

:notbad: sick concept so far

not feeling that kinect shit lol

looks like the EA/microsoft partnership thing was true

.Renn.Sport 05-21-2013 09:41 AM

Forza 5 is gonna be a launch title!

urrh 05-21-2013 11:08 AM

i hated the pay to play online model and the overpriced HDDs of this gen's xbox and decided not to get the next one if those stuck around; so far nothing suggests they're going away. now there's mandatory kinect and games tied to one account. ms isn't getting my money this time around

411ken 05-21-2013 11:16 AM

Yup.. I hated paying $$ to play online with xbox 360.. and it looks like it will be like this again for this version

Finished watching the unveil and during the xbox live portion, they said "Based on the same membership you have today....." so that means, it'll be a yearly membership again.

Akinari 05-21-2013 11:18 AM

Ain't nobody got space to put that huge thing anywhere.

Mozo 05-21-2013 11:56 AM

I like the fact they finally made skype available.
Other than that, the xbox it self and the Kinect looks fucken huge

Also:
- no backwards compatibility
- wont function without the Kinect plugged in

hotjoint 05-21-2013 11:57 AM

that thing is huge!

:troll:


no backwards compatability

only 1 account per machine more than 1 costs $$$

Disc drive only used to install games but the included storage is only 500gb

I must have missed that part.

I can't see that being true.

Lomac 05-21-2013 12:17 PM

I wonder how well the included camera works in low light/dark room situations...

And it looks like this is why EA decided to do away with their online pass codes.

411ken 05-21-2013 12:20 PM

Does the PS4 have backward compatability btw?

and I can't believe NBA LIVE series is coming back from the dead lol.....

Xbox One game discs are only used for initial installation, fee charged for second account | The Verge

Microsoft has said that a fee will be charged for any game disc to be tied to a second Xbox Live account after its initial installation. This is likely to limit the market for second-hand games, but would not eliminate the possibility altogether. The company is yet to confirm whether players will be able to play games from disc or run them on secondary accounts without paying for the installation, nor has it given any indication of what the fee may be.

its impressive...

MarkyMark 05-21-2013 02:49 PM

I think they fucked up. I don't want to use it as an "everything" console that changes from tv to music to games etc. I just want it to play games...They seemed to focus less on actual gaming this time around, where the PS4 reveal was very much about the games.

Not really racist! 05-21-2013 03:37 PM

freaking stupid.. lol

u gotta pay a fee for a used game..

:facepalm:

luckily Sony is doing the complete opposite of this with cloud so the PS4 won't get butchered

You can use it as just a game console if you want I'm sure.

People said the same things with Smart Phones. I remember my Dad saying "I just want a PHONE". Now he googles shit on the go with a Samsung Galaxy. I'm not saying you're going to adopt it as an everything machine, but, who gives a fuck if it has extra shit? Not like they had a limited number of resources for the gaming part of it and they cut them to make the TV part better. (I would hope anyway)

StylinRed 05-21-2013 04:18 PM

well the PS3 offered the "extras" that the xbox one is advertising especially if you were in europe/asia where you could make use of a DVR/tuner etc

but msft seems to be focused entirely on the extras this time around

maybe they'll get more into the gaming side during E3

Preemo 05-21-2013 04:27 PM

No backwards compatibility with Xbox 360 games.

360 to still be sold alongside the One.

Ugh.

asian_XL 05-21-2013 04:38 PM

xecuter will do something about it :D

A-Dev 05-21-2013 04:47 PM

microsoft and xbox will be focused on games and gaming technology at E3.

I must admit that this does pick up a lot where the 360 was lacking, a fluid, smooth, quick and responsive UI.

BurnoutBinLaden 05-21-2013 04:53 PM

I really hate this war being fought over second-hand selling of games. This is why people commit piracy, in my opinion.

BBMme 05-21-2013 04:57 PM

Will it play blu ray? Tempting
