The Xbox One, described by Don Mattrick, president of the Interactive Entertainment Business for Microsoft, was designed and built "as an all-in-one system to align games, TV and entertainment." Mashable has a live blog on this here: http://mashable.com/2013/05/21/microsoft-new-xbox-live-blog/

Hardware 500 GB HDD 8 Gigs of RAM Blu Ray Wi-Fi Features New Kinect, needed to function Xbox One Newer, sleeker controller Runs on a version of Windows 8? Game Recording available some sort of DVR like device Live TV, lots of entertainment ESPN, Skype, and a few other apps Games EA is partnering with Microsoft, shows off new sport games FIFA 14, NBA LIVE, New Madden, UFC Call of Duty Ghosts, what a shocker A new Halo TV show directed by Steven Spielberg Forza 5, available on Launch No backwards compatibility as of yet, but an add-on device for that is rumored to be out there No always on internet Games are DLed to HDD, are connected to your profile In order to connect a game to another profile, a fee must me paid (unknown $$$).

rvbcaboose Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 That's kind of bullshit. What if you bring a game to a friend/relative's? Most likely you would have to use the cloud and download your profile to that persons Xbox. Then you would be able to play whatever game you brought.
torontonyr Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 The real sad part is this should be filed under TV.
Morphinity 2.0 Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 I wonder what this EA relationship means. I really only use my PS3 for NHL, so would I be getting a shittier version of the game if I don't get it on the Xbox One?

I really only use my PS3 for NHL, so would I be getting a shittier version of the game if I don't get it on the Xbox One? Not sure exactly how NHL will relate to the EA relationship. EA is pushing FIFA and Madden real hard, so its possible NHL will stay the same.
Morphinity 2.0 Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 I wish NHL got some love. The game is utter shit and was really hoping that "next gen" would be a good time for a refresh.

Pretty lame that they only get a year of Xbox live.
