If it was only a small percentage, MS wouldn't be trying to lock those 3rd parties out with a proprietary connector.
Astro, Turtle Beach, Tritton, Sennheiser etc.. are all now going to have to pay MS to continue making headsets for the new Xbox

In the external hdd issue, has it been confirmed that any external drive or pen drive will work with xbox1? Considering how closed ms is making the new xbox i would be surprised if you didn't have to buy offical drives at ms prices, 360 hdd any one?

People may laugh but i think ms is going the apple route for the xbo1
Does it? I actually haven't seen anything about PVR functionality mentioned so far, and I can't really see much need for it to act as one anyway, if you've got Sky or cable or whatever, you've already got a box with a HDD.
They said the USB3 port should work with standard external drives although I can't find the quote at the moment
+1 No way will MS let any drive be used.
That would defeat the entire purpose of a proprietary connector, so no, that won't happen. MS would shut down anyone who released such an adapter.
So you don't have a clue why it's been implemented then, and rather than finding out, make up rubbish.
Ah well at least you're in good standing with most of this thread.
On top of that, it's not like they can stop people making adapters.
So it's hardly a chnage for chnage sake, it's adds a much more powerful and relism features.
Thought you guys wanted cutting edge stuff? Or maybe not then.

Max of 32gb if you needed more you need to buy an official overpriced drive. I doubt this will change on Xboxone.
At last! A stereo connector for headphones! Thank you MS for inventing such a thing. I can't believe it's taken until 2013 for headphones to be capable of doing stereo...
Keep drinking the MS Kool-Aid Glaucus. We all remember the Win8 threads where you said "anyone who doesn't switch to win8 is a moron."
Lol it doesn't say a stereo connector for speakers.
It's also not what MS has said, as MS hasn't said a lot. It's what people in the field are suggesting its use to be.
Like the rest of it we will have to wait for e3 for ful details.
And way to take stuff out of context

Why would anybody need stereo voice chat? It's a useless feature in virtually every game I can think of.

The quote you posted was very clear. The only suggested 'improvement' was stereo audio out (from the controller). You don't need a proprietary connector to do that, as we all know.
So your snarky (and insulting) comments are not justified, and just highlight your pro-MS bias (as if we needed more evidence of this!)
Imagine the embarrassment of touching the penis of your team mate but going for the wrong one, I can see this being invaluable in games like COD, especially if you want to avoid bestiality in the new one...
And AcidHell2 stop contradicting yourself, if you pull up others for not using decently sourced opinions, then maybe dont quote quotes that you yourself have conceded isnt much more than speculation...

Why would they? Anybody that makes one would still need to licence it from MS so MS would still money from it.
