New Xbox
Out tonight. This is where Microsoft get a chance to shine, hands down my favourite MS product ever... apart from the split keyboard but that's weird.

Let's hope they allow more support of third-party wheels.. the fact I can't use my G27 on Forza is unforgivable!

With the PS4 being unveiled in a couple of weeks hopefully it will be the gamers that benefit with these two trying to out do each other.
Rather than all the bollox about how powerful this will be over that we just want a jaw dropping gaming experience with mind blowing graphics, future proofed, backward compatible. All the talk of how powerful the PS3 could be never seemed to materialise into games that made your jaw drop over anything that came out of the X-box, so lets not go down that road again MS/Sony :thumb: |

watching it now live, xbox one is the new name.
its incredible so far!! nd we've not got to the gaming side of it yet |
I can hear PC gaming turning in it's grave.
|
theres 15,000 servers for xbl, for xbox one there will be 300,000
|
Big whoop
I think I'll be buying One |
"Available later this year" what a crock. Apple announce something and you can order it that day, that's class.
|
Yeah I'm a bit gutted no mention of release day

It's a miserable looking consol imho and the lack of release date is probably because they wanted to get one up on Sony, it will be interesting to see what the PS4 has in comparison and if they give a release date, we'll find out in a fortnight. One thing is for sure the fanboys will be having wet dreams and the bickering will go into overdrive :Whatever_ |
What an underwhelming event that was! All the games were rendered adverts, no gameplay (could be very telling). Kinect 2 is better, but still I don't think people will buy it because of that. Some clever tech in there, but I can't see non-gamers flocking to it, SMart TVs offer alot of what this does.
It's getting a abit of a slating. MS stock has dropped, and Sony stock has risen! Still, with all the exclusive MS have negotiated and things like COD first again, it will sell by the bucketload. Geezer |
Don't forget E3 is where the proper willy waving starts.
|
I can tell you when the release date will be, end of October or start of November, in time for Xmas and a new COD game to sell it.

Really don't understand why they didn't show any gameplay trailers? Cgi looked good years ago, gameplay is what folk want to see.
Disappointed tbh |

Disappointed tbh Do you really think that the PS4 console was not ready to show in Feb? Do you really think that MS don't have any gameplay footage to show you now? Both companies have months of time to tantalise and drip feed us information. Advertising is all about tantalising and not shooting your bolt in one foul swoop, when it provides you no benefit in the long run, building the anticipation. It's been accepted that E3 will be THE event that you'll start to see some serious stuff. MS knew that Sony are using this event, so they certainly don't want Sony taking all the glory.... or give them an insight into what they need to beat. It's all cat and mouse at the moment...... hence why Sony have just released a new PS4 "what it looks like" teaser trailer. Again to take some sting out of MS launch today. |

At least they made an event ps4 had nothing to show. Watch the share price drop for Sony then

Zavvi had it on pre-order last night at £399.99! Erm no thanks, no backward compatibility due to complete architecture overhaul so can only play the new gen games means it's going to be a very limited catalogue for a while. No matter how good the graphics are the latest Call of Duty and Forza aren't worth £400 outlay plus the price of the games.
I know the price is a stab in the dark but I can't see it being much cheaper than that (if at all) when you look at how much the Xbox 360 was when it came out and then Kinect came along. The PS4 holds as little interest for me too with no backwards compatibility. I own or have owned all the mainstream consoles but I don't have any plans to buy either of these certainly until their prices fall and the catalogue is large. |
Sign me up! looks good to me, cod and forza that would keep me going for half a year

Pre-owned games and you will need to pay fee
http://www.computerandvideogames.com...-for-xbox-one/ No backward compatibility this everybody expected at least me,just due different architecture,maybe at later stages older games will be ported Jura |
