PS4 and Xbox Rumours

Quite ironic that lots of people here were saying "just show me the games", and now that it's over they're discussing the media aspects of the console rather than the actual games that were announced.

McLaren being a key partner for Forza 5 seems pretty exciting - no doubt their cars will all be part of the next iteration of the Autovista feature, which should be even more interactive with the new Kinect

Ghosts looks graphically impressive - staying at 60fps will also ensure the gameplay doesn't suffer. I'd be interested to know if it will be native 1080p.

Yeah but you had quite low expectations right?

My checklist for tonight:

Console spec exceeding PS4.
Kinect 2, inc Illumiroom.
Revised controller with internal rechargeable battery
Bluray drive
OS intergrated with/based off Windows 8

Forza 5
Fifa 14
COD: Ghosts
Halo 5 teaser (What's an Xbox without Halo!)

All you wanted were things that had already been leaked and were quite wrong on the non leaked stuff.

Others were expecting more games/gameplay hence their disappointment and resorting to talking about the media functions mainly (as that is mainly what was shown for 1 hour).

Quantum Break

Battlefield 4

Fifa 14

Christ, not only are the vast majority of those also on PS4, some of them on this Gen's consoles too! Find another straw, this one's ******.

Wonder how it seems to be floating !

Get a better monitor. Can you really not see the 2 acrylic posts under the palm grips of the pad?

won't work, not enough people have the bandwidth for 1080i

Maybe, although NowTV and SkyGo, iPlayer, Netflix, Lovefilm etc seem to be doing ok already and presuming these devices have 7 or 8 year life span who knows for more HD content.

I wasn't guessing - that's what I hoped for.

Illumiroom not even being mentioned was a big miss for me - personally believe that kind of effect could be quite a boon for immersion / atmosphere.

The majority of the list did feature. Think Halo being mentioned was a good call, even if it was a TV series and not the game.

My reaction to the xbox one launch in a nutshell. Warning, has swearies: http://z0r.de/2309

If someone could remove the land whale from that clip and replace it with the xbox one you would become the hero of the internet (at least to me)

You've grasped the wrong end of this straw.

Doesn't look like "no games" announced to me.

To be fair just because they are on PS4 as well doesn't mean they don't exist on Xbox. If they count as announced PS4 games they count as Xbox if they are multiplatform.

The Xbox One is priced up on a handful of sites already at £568~ :eek:

That would be an incredibly stupid move by Microsoft given that high pricing of PS3 is what gave 360 a big chunk of the market.

I can only see two from those pics?

From what I read there are four on the rear. Two are spaced apart for memory sticks and two are close together and meant for cables ?

Does seem to only be three though two rear and one side... Better pics.

Here you go:

Power - HDMI in - Optical out - HDMI out - 2x USB 3 - Kinect - IR - Ethernet

Angry Joe on youtube sums up my feelings exactly on this in his rant video, I can't link it as there's swearing in it

I really hate Microsoft's decisions now, first Windows 8 and how it really isn't very ideal for gaming, now this...

Hilly · 21 May 2013 at 23:24

Keep the over the top fan boy comments to your selves, or these will be removed.

Any thing I spot will be dealt with. Now play nice.

+1 Angry Joe basically says how most gamers feel right now. I hope MS watch this.

what is the point of the HDMI in?

i mean why would you want your sky + hd passing through it?

FeFiDoh · 21 May 2013 at 23:42

The Xbox one can change the source via voice so no need for controls and it seemed to move between game/live tv very quickly.
