MattJimF Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 So Xbox 1 will now work without Kinect - http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/08/12/xbox-one-no-longer-requires-kinect-to-function Also here's a video comparing the size of the PS4 to things - http://www.ign.com/videos/2013/08/13/how-big-is-playstation-4-really-going-to-be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJimF Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm waiting patiently for the Half life 3 steam box announcement. I'm finding myself quite underwhelmed about the next gen consoles. Sure they have fancy graphics and some semi-decent launch titles but they just seem to be lacking something. Asides from the graphics and new games there isn't actually much innovation from either of them.You can try and get one to beta test by following the instructions here - http://store.steampowered.com/livingroom/SteamMachines/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Xbox one is running games at upscaled 720p. That's not good I thought they'd done a good job after the initial awful announcement of bringing themselves back in the race. With PS4 running at 1080p that's a big win for playstation.

I think, from memory, the XBOne is capable of 1080p as well though PS4 is pushing for better resolutions from the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I think, from memory, the XBOne is capable of 1080p as well though PS4 is pushing for better resolutions from the start. Yeah it is, think the cap'n is referring to COD:Ghosts which is only going to run at 780p upscaled on Xbone. Would assume that's a development decision rather than a hardware restriction - though you'd have to ask why they can't get it running at 1080 on the Xbone when they can on the PS4. I had a horrible dream last night that my 360 red ringed and I had to commit to buying one of the new consoles at launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Yeah sorry that's what I meant. It's not just CoD Ghosts though. Battlefield is the same so there must be some design or technology decision that's lead to this? Like Chris said if PS4 is doing it on launch why can't Xbox. It's strange.

Moose Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 So is this going to be good then? I've not seen any gameplay footage that makes me want to get one, only cinemtaic trailers. They look immense, but I want to know how the actual games are going to improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teabags Posted December 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Yep. I'm definitely holding out for a Steambox. Though the controller does look very weird. Hoping it'll support a 360 controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 So, does anyone actually have an XBone? I got one for the missus, and she loves it. It came with a free download of FIFA 14 too. Swag. It looks pretty slick. I'm really shit at it though. Slide tackles don't work like they used to on FIFA 11. I had Lukaku sent off after 30 accelerated minutes, for two neck breaking lunges. Oops. My GT is EmployedSatsuma, if anyone wants an easy win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Ha. I honestly didn't. I barely play video games, except GTA5. I probably don't have the patience to get any good at FIFA either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeromiserY Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 there's not much content for the kinect - not that it's a huge loss, but to force feed it to us then release pretty much zero content for it... I miss being able to navigate the home menus with it too. Like 99% of the xbone owners, i dont use voice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Milner Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 The only reason ill be getting one of these is for Halo 5 when it eventually comes out, and thats only if its not backward compatible for the 360, which i highly doubt it will be. Titanfall looks good, but its just another FPS really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 Titanfall looks good, but its just another FPS really. Just another FPS with giant titan robots and parkour! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
