This tweet probably confirms they are having Indies on stage to show games.
Looks like they weren't happy about this leaking either.
I do hope they have some other GamesCom surprises in the pipeline now this one has leaked, it's sad that they didn't get their big reveal and "oh-shit!" moment.
Ok, thanks. What happened with Skulls of the Shogun?
I hope Sony copies the every system can become a dev kit idea, that's a really nice idea and finally a forward thinking plan from Microsoft. Their first for Xbox One, as far as I'm scoring it.
If they have an indie self publishing program ready, why wait to announce it? Surely it's the sort of thing they'd want out there asap to counter continued bad sentiment among indies.
Hardly much of a "surprise" when you're the last one to the party after all.
Wow. I want my first game to be made on Xbone. It's gonna be called Laser Face and have tits & poetry in it. Also expect Laser Face 2 - The Unborn Mother.
I am sure Unity will be supported. That would be pretty awesome tbh.
Phil Fish official comment. Fez 2 probably still not coming to Xbox.

No way they drop Kinect.

No, I mean will there be any game engine that is supplied with a console-dev kit?
Currently you can't buy a unity license engine without going through one of their supported partners. So either you still have to buy a license, use something other than unity or get a licensing by having MS publishing.
Show it with a bang at Gamescom was the plan apparently, with some devs on stage.

There is no way a retail Xbox One can be a dev kit for full can be a dev kit for full sized Xbox One games.
What's the cboat rumor?
"Things break"
I guess MS isn't a fan of someone else gaining secret information of theirs.

Games on the Windows 8 app store have achievements.

How can a retail Xbone be a full-functioning dev kit? That just sounds like an invitation to hackers and modders.

Most likely you need a dev kit for full sized games but any console can make apps.
Man, did they seriously think that was going to be a good idea? To have indies up on stage and announce a program that's months behind their competitors?
Can the PS4 be used as an indie devkit?
While this a good (and long overdue) announcement, I'm not sure it's really a big press conference moment kind of thing.

There will be more limits unless they decide to go and add an additional amount of memory to par it up with current dev kits. There is definitely some fine print that is missing from this story.I think there will probably have to be some work between a developer and MS before they just unlock the console. MS are bound to authorize and probably also demand an internet connection for support/update purposes.
Could the whole limited to 3 gb thing be there because every unit could be a dev unit? Dont normal dev units have more ram for whatever reason? Using a regular unit as dev they have to take some available ram away for those purposes where in a dev unit you have extra ram for it? So they have to take 2 gb away for it to become a dev unit so you only have 3 for the game. Not a tech person this could make no sense idk
Hence this is not self-publishing but Microsoft shilling their dead-end app store.
He's throwing away free money. I mean, I know how badly MS burned him over the patch and all, but if the PS4 and X1 both have X86 architecture and AMD graphics, why cut off that revenue stream if all things are equal?Phil Fish official comment. Fez 2 probably still not coming to Xbox.
