    Hi Guys/Gals,

    I just wanted to find out what you think, are Microsoft trying to release something that inst needed? I mean, I have a TV, I have a Phone all I want an XBOX for is to play games. Have you seen the first TV ad?



    I know the idea behind this ad is to show what the XBOX is besides a games console, but they could of mentioned the 'gaming' aspect just even briefly.

    Xbox One is suppose to help improve your gaming experience. The connection is suppose to be faster. A new feature that is also on the Xbox One is called Game Help. I believe you'll be able to either talk to it and say something like "Xbox Help!" or either you can opt out and click on the help icon.

    I guess we will figure out soon enough if these changes really make a difference or not but I must say that for now, I d0n't see any major differences in my personal opinion.

    I imagine it'll be amazing and it won't be long before gamers wondered how they'd lived without it - we won't be getting one though, we go through 130gb a month as it is!

    Definitely. The graphics look nice and all, but you're right. I already have TV, I already have a DVD player, I will be playing any video games I play on PC in the future.
