2013-05-21
what's up everyone John render from technobuffalo here Microsoft's Xbox event just wrapped up and they went through a ton of stuff in just about a 55 at a time frame did you miss the announcement I'm gonna take you through step-by-step of everything that got announced some things that didn't get announced there but came out afterwards it all kinda Xbox goodness stick around let's go through it together alright so let's start at the beginning Microsoft's own Don Mattrick took the stage and he said and I quote we spent the past four years working on this so that was kind of cool they gave a brief Xbox history and they finally said the name of the next generation console it's not the xbox 720 Xbox fusion the official name is the xbox one poor HTC and they call it the xbox one because it's an all-in-one entertainment system and we'll get talked about that more as you go along but it does a lot of things in one console hence the name Xbox one so they talked about a new controller and connect was also announced talk about that a little bit later it's not a new stuff with Kinect really heavy emphasis on TV there's a totally new TV experience and you can access that TV experience there's some pretty baller voice commands that worked really well you know TV on switch to music and all kind of other stuff it uses your voice just incredibly well in voice commands allow you to instantly switch between games TV music movies full internet explorer and other apps so that was kind of cool they announce something called snap mode you can snap back and forth different things allows you to view two things at once like watching a movie and doing a quick web search kind of neat also one thing that's really excited about a skype for xbox totally built in so you can skype your friends while you're playing a game you could talk some trash you just use it for skype on your TV a lot of ESPN centric stuff was also announced our unique notification to your favorite players and teams so that's kind of cool if you're big into sports it can also snap very stats next to live support a game so kind of cool to next thing xbox one guide it's a full TV Guide what it's gonna do and they didn't announce this at the keyed up they announced it afterward it's actually going to work on top of your cable boxes DVR selects solid content but I put the Xbox UI on top of it kind of neat I get trending in favorite options there but the big deal here this Justin specs what is the xbox one going to pack so 8 gigabytes of RAM USB 3.0 blu-ray drive which so he's the head of the blu-ray consortium kind of cool to see a blu-ray drive in there so bigger games more storage of course HDMI in our outs eight core GPU 500 gigabyte hard drive note that solid state or not they're three separate outbreak system that are kind of cool first there's the Xbox OS is a full Windows kernel and finally there's an OS allows you to switch between the other two instantly so that's kind of cool so the windows kernel hopefully would be some cross compatibility between Windows games and xbox games so let's talk about connect first of all good news can be included with every console it's now a 1080p HD camera voice commands are now totally more conversational with it it can read your heartbeat also which is crazy you just rest sense of separate movements movement of the wrists and just more details we could give a much better connect experience on to the controller it looks the same but underneath that she'll there are 40 design changes dynamic impulse triggers like you put feedback on the triggers which are kind of cool it's got Wi-Fi direct radio stack in there it's got all kinds of cool precision directional pad stuff built into it integrated battery of course obviously more support for all a smart glass stuff that Microsoft announced I guess the last year's e3 I'm so natively part of the platform there's all kinds of other stuff that's natively in there so Xbox Live so that's kind of cool for the servers to support that they're going from 15,000 servers to 300,000 servers which is crazy I love stores for music movies games and all of its going to save in the cloud kind of cool taking a cloud the dedicated game DVR built-in will save games to the cloud it's better for you know queuing up multiplayer games as well they told a talk a lot about games EA fifa madden NFL NBA live UFC EA came and talked about a lot of it always going to be powered by ea's new sports engine called ignite so that's kind of cool they talked about the gaming engine sort of ten times more animation depth of detail that showed 3d crowds dynamic sidelines and daily streams of new content so kind of cool then Microsoft Studios came up talked about all the rest of their games so forza motorsports five be available at launch that was kind of cool and they showed a new game called quantum break which looked pretty good awesome the 15 exclusive titles in the first year eight will be totally new franchises there could be a halo TV series which steven spielberg is going to be involved in so that's kind of cool a lot of NFL stuff so I'm appropriately dressed here for it essentially let's integrate with NFL supported games as will pull up fantasy stats and all kinds of other school stuff there as well so your big fantasy sports buff like me you're gonna like it so the Xbox one is gonna launch we don't know the date but sometime later this year presumably by the holidays or get much more info at e3 and then Activision came up and talked about the next call of duty call of duty ghosts me built on a whole new engine there's new dog companions dynamic maps character customization downloadable contents can be coming to Xbox one first and sort of a lot of other cool stuff that came out of it so let's talk a little bit more about the games and what sort of came out of that so I give activation credit they demoed games they said on a totally Xbox one console it wasn't generated on a PC and simulated it was actually running on reference hardware's a lot of stuff came out though after the after the keynote really didn't get an ounce so used games games are tied to a console so essentially when you put your disc in its gonna install the game on your hard drive and if you want to give that this to a friend there Gore sell it for example they are going to have to pay a fee in order to use that game don't know what don't know what the fee is how it's gonna work if not kick the internet but you know kind of interesting so you can give internet we also don't know if it requires always on stuff so that's the other big question mark we don't know the price which is a big question mark as well we also don't know backwards compatibility but hopefully we will know all of that come III which is now just a few short weeks away so we got a ton of news on the Xbox one I love to hear guys thoughts what you think about it you're excited not excited just they announced crazy amount of stuff and a 15-minute period so I give Microsoft credit they've had years to work on this the console looks super big but hopefully that bigness will keep the cost down you know they'd have to pay that much to shrink the components but it's definitely a large console but you know take that for what it's worth it doesn't look ab but certainly is going to take up a lot of space in your component cabinet anyway guys I'm excited about it looks very cool I'll can't wait to get our hands on it take a look at some gameplay of course at e3 we will be there covering it in force to get want to hear your thoughts please get the video big daddy thumbs up we must def we appreciate it i'm jon rettinger from TechnoBuffalo see you guys next video you
