Yeah, I was scared for this but I think I'm gonna buy it. It seems totally amazing. Best system ever (as of this year)

Are you guys above me joking or what? Can't really tell.

Godawful presentation.

Quantum Break is probably gonna be amazing because the developers made the awesome Alan Wake, but that's the only exciting thing out of this entire thing.

Interesting piece of news I just found regarding "always-online" play.

In fact, the Kinect will be used for that most fundamental of tasks: turning the whole thing on. Xbox One utilizes multiple power states; it can thus ramp up as needed and consume different amounts of juice depending on use, whether games or movies. And it also possesses a low-power standby mode, allowing Xbox Live and game updates to be pushed to the Xbox One overnight — or whenever the box knows your usage is lowest — without keeping the console all the way on. (Don’t worry; you can still play a single-player game without being connected to the Internet.) It also means that when you walk into your room and say “Xbox on,” the Kinect sensor hears you and turns on your entire setup via infrared blast: TV, Xbox One, even your cable box.

Im an Xbox fan,i got 360 and was super hyped for this presentation.
Sadly,i was very disappointed.

The good things about Xbox One :
The console and handcontroller looks very nice.
Halo Tv serie
Voice controlled
Quantum Break

The bad things
Almost no games presentations..this is suppose to be a video gaming console but it was all tv talk and what else but playing you can do with it.
No gameplay videos,it was all trailers and concept videos.
Graphics were not that impressive.

Im leaning towards buying the PS4 now,they look to be more about playing games and not focused on all that other bullshit.They showed alot more games and the graphics looked better.
Im all about gaming so i think i will buy the PS4 but i have to wait until E3 is over to really make up my mind.

How could you say that was a bad presentation?! It got me pretty hyped! When I tried to play my 360 and realized IT SUCKS NOW!!!!!

[LIL_B]

that was extremely boring. ew will buy

[Steve Spag]

Some of you guys seem to be forgetting E3 is right around the corner. We will see MUCH more of the actual gameplay, along with games, in a few weeks time. Hold your horses!

You got excited by switching from ESPN to CBS, launching Internet explorer and playing a call of duty game that looks about the same as the shit that's out right now? Ok then.

I got excited for a change regardless of what you or anybody says, the system will still run way more smooth than the 360, have 10x the power and capabilities, and we won't see the actual capabilities for like a year anyway. For example, look at the difference between halo 3 & 4.

That's good enough for me, as long as it isn't the 360 I'm all for it.

Word.

Here's a short article that explains how your Gamerscore, Avatar, movies, music, Gamertag will carry on from your 360 to the One http://ca.ign.com/articles/2013/05/21/g ... o-xbox-one

For the people complaining about the lack of backwards compatibility, the solution is simple; don't throw out or sell your 360, it will still be an excellent working console!
