Microsoft has finally unveiled the new Xbox, dubbed the Xbox One and due “later this year,” although with the better part of their presentation being given over to TV and EA Sports precious little of the actual game line-up was on show.
As Sony is obsessed with social, so Microsoft is with TV (and “the Cloud”) – although the console does still retain the capability to play actual games:
A much enhanced version of Kinect is also included, as is the possibility of struggling to control the device with voice controls.
Microsoft first proudly presented a special partnership with the USA’s worst company – Electronic Arts was on hand to reveal its “intelligent and dynamic” EA Sports titles, showing off some surprisingly poor graphics and various promises of super-AI and continuous as opposed to merely annual updates.
Forza Motorsports 5 also featured, and for the tiny minority of Xbox gamers not interested in sports games,
several seconds of Remedy’s Quantum Break were visible in between what appeared to be shots of a TV drama.
Microsoft did promise 15 “exclusive” games and 8 “new franchises” – after which it was back to the exciting world of TV on Xbox Live, in the form of a Spielberg produced Halo live action series and more ways of fantasising about muscular men running up and down a stadium in the form of NFL and “fantasy football.”
Activision was also on hand to present Call of Duty Ghosts, which now includes a dog.
No other games featured, with further details apparently due at the impending E3.

I wonder how Idolm@sters holds up on this and Do I have to pay to play?
It's incompatible with previous games. So...
My god, I'll finally be able to watch television and movies on my television with the XBOX ONE! Apparently, my cable connection and BluRay player weren't doing a sufficient job, I guess?
Eh, I don't need integration or social media, I just want to play physical media games offline with slightly better graphics and improved AI compared to the previous XBOX. Everything else is just useless fluff.
If I wanted a media player I'll jailbreak it and install Linux on it.
>calling every exploit a 'jailbreak'
see what happens when casuals start 'hacking' their toys
xbox wan
in espanol xbox 'juan'
Help me xbox wan
So it's the bastard love child of an Xbox and a DVR.
The only games in the line up that look remotely interesting are Halo and Forza.
Actually it's not a new Halo "Game". It's a TV Series. A show.
I figure they'll make a new game to tie into the TV show.
The reason for the TV show being a marketing gimmick.
XBAWKS ONE HAS NO GAEMS
HUAWI??
Now includes a dog.
SOLD!
"call of doggy" has also fishes. Can't wait for Peta (-sses, french joke) going hysterical about "real violence on virtual animals". It's going to be fun
Actually i would buy that over call of duty(assholes).
MEH.
Dude, what is this? I want a gaming console, not a social-tv crap, where are the games at?
It seems MS and Sony are not listening to their users.
Why would they? Everything in this world is about money, and console sells have dropped because people are playing more social game crap on thier cell phones and PCs, hardcore, and even average gamers are getting shafted because of facebook.
Funny things all those games are absolute shit.
But then that's how facebook makes their money they let you post silly pics to imaginary friends and give you free crappy games to play in exchange for your personal information which they sell to marketing firms and even shadier operations.
In reality any one who uses FB is being shafted.
I believe all of the games are being announced at E3
Gamers will always be customers and buy whatever they release they don't care. Better graphics and new titles is all you need to say to them. I think they are trying to attract non gamers like me where all in one is slightly good sounding. But until they make something where I can voice activate everything like Im iron man and there are touchable holograms all over my living room I wont be interested.
Hmm, so this is Noire and Vert love-child!
And Blanc still doesn't have to give a shit.
she's making babies with neptune ... apparently sonic even started calling her "mom" .
welcome to the new FaceBox One
To post you pics and video's press x
To like a comment,picture or video press y
To log out of FaceBox press select
You can't "log out" of FaceBox, silly ^^
You can. Press the "Power" button.
You still can't: it's always on, haven't you read the latest trend?
Electricity goes out, too.
You can always get a computer. No, not a tablet, a real computer. Remember these?
Oh yeah, those things that always play the games better for about the same amount of money as a release console when you can assemble it yourself or buy a buddy lunch to do it for you. I think I remember these ancient devices.
You forgot "same games 30% cheaper".
if anyone in the UK wants a gameing rig built for them i am more than willing to comeover and build it, install Windows 7 and set it up for you, but you would have to pay for dinner and some snaks for me to do it ^^
>.> i considerd pizza hut dinner Dominos can go to hell.
- Lost
.............. crap you had to live all the way in the UK....XD
>.> if you pay for me to fly where ever id do it :P
oh yeah, the electric pornograph.
yeah, supply your own joystick
@anon 10:44
Implying I need a shitty joystick.
I heard a sonic boom as that comment went over your head.
@13:42
So you're implying you don't need one?
Or you don't have one?
I have 1 for my gaming but every day, my information science teacher just says:"Tablets are replacing PC". I doubt i can play crysis 3 on any tablets.....
Your information science teacher is full of shit. Just sayin'
Sure, one can get a real computer (well, I have one) with great Windows 8 lol
Jokes aside. My family got our first PC back in 1996, I believe, and we had gaming consoles much earlier. I grew up as a toddler playing/watching Master System and NES, and as an adult I still own most consoles, newest being a 360.
To me there were PC games and console games. FPS and strategy games were best played on PC, everything else on the console. That feeling of holding a controller in your hands and sitting in front of the telly... it's NOT the same as a computer screen!
But all of this social shit and the "great" multimedia features ruin what is meant to be a plastic box, in which you insert games for... well, gaming! The PS1 could play music CDs, with the PS2 one could watch DVDs... later generations added crap you don't need one a gaming console. They could just release their stuff as a "multimedia console" or "computer replacement/alternative" which also functions as a gaming console... but they don't
The thing is that it's free to add multimedia features. That's why they add them and advertise them, it didn't cost almost any extra (besides a bit of software support).
News flash: you can hold a controller and play games in front of the telly on the computer as well... hell, my friends and I have been doing that for a long time now.
You're right. Good thing I have one. ^^
Still with the games, but they add television. Skype is a awesome add up too
Are you old enough to remember old console reveals? Probably not otherwise you'd know they RARELY talk games for console reveals.
ALSO Game Recording and editing is awesome.
Whoa, hold your ponies.
This is just hardware and features. Real Line-ups are to be revealed soon : the E3 is going to be a grand battle, this year.
"Whoa, hold your ponies."
DAMN MANCHILDREN PEDO HORSEFUCKER!! KEEP YOUR ANORMALITY OUT OF HERE!!
Is confirmed, Bronies are worse than Emos
please die
they said the games will be showed at E3
love how some people take someone's opinion (which is always bias - which ever way)and try to spin it off as the facts.
If you want the facts of the new console - see the stream they did. They spent the first half of the conference (about 30 minutes) talking about the hardware/xbox live/software; and the other 30 minutes about what games / apps they wanted to talk about.
I think it was much better than the PS4 conference myself. At least we say the console and saw what it could do -.-
Ok, you should just calm down. Obviously Micrsoft just wanted to show the console and the power of kinect in this event. All about videogames will be revealed on E3, wich take place on 2 weeks. Why do you think they did this with so little time space?. Yes, this was not what we wanted to see but I'm still waiting for the real deal
"The power of Kinect"
People say this unironically? What a joke.
At the E3, obviously... You actually expected them to show the good stuff and be left with nothing for the E3...?
