Support NeoGAF

[Majine]

I love the pace at which they update the OS. A couple of features a month. Seems MS is the only one who takes software seriously among the big three.

 

[Kajiba]

Yeah you make a good point. The sync button is in an awkward position with finger placement to be used for screenshots. The button has to be easily accessible for those who want to quickly take screenshots. How about double tapping the view button to screenshot?

I don't find it akward at all in my opinion. My index finger can hit it with no problem.

 

[S0cc3rpunk]

voted, this is a great idea.

thanks for tweeting/voteding it

Voted.

awesome thanks

That's a good idea.



Watching twitch dota stream.

thanks

Okay guys i tweeted it, and little by little its growing, the more votes it has the faster Microsoft sees it
I hope they see it, it would help the people that don't have a kinect, record clips and maybe if they do add it take screenshots

The fact that the Xbone is getting 3D blu ray support before the PS4 makes Sony look really incompetent in updating the PS4 in my opinion.
Good on Microsoft for all the awesome updates.

 

[Kerub]

Yeah you're not getting 3D. Maybe next year, if they find a way to make it run on heavily infferior hardware. At this point, it's just not meant to run on 360/Xbone HW (which is pretty much the same).

it's certainly annoying, but really incompetent? I dunno

 

[FaultTolerance]

Why am I not surprised that you showed up here to rain on the parade?

Yeah, no... there's quite a difference between 360 hardware which is PowerPC based, and Xbox One hardware which is x86 based. But continue to tell yourself whatever you need to hear.

Kerub does it pretty much constantly.

I'm honestly surprised he's still around.

I think he just hasn't been caught by a mod yet. He's done this in multiple articles over the past few days, that's why I recognized him.

 

[daxter325]

Thank You Based Phil. I wonder if Microsoft will start using the 3D feature as a selling point. Or say, have a partnership with a TV manufacturer and advertise the Xbox One as a companion device.

 

[BuggeryBugz]

All I need now is USB media playback.

You cannot possibly be serious.

This is a joke post, right, guys?

...

Guys?

Unrelated but this is a big xbox thread. Can I put my cable box on top of the Xbox One? Isn't a giant one, maybe about half the size of the One.

I don't know. MS always was beating them to the punch with similar things you'd expect them to be first in last gen, i.e. entertainment marketplace. Maybe this will spark them to pick it up with the updates. Oh well, everybody wins in the end.

as long as you dont block the fan

Not the best idea in the world, but as long as there's proper ventilation and you avoid blocking the vent on the right side, it should be okay. Still, I'd recommend against it.

 

[Ghazi]

Is there an invite thread for the updates? Can't find it.

I had that setup when I was at my parents house for the holidays. Just as long as it's properly vented, should be fine. I wouldn't plan for that to be a long term thing if you can avoid it, though.

 

[Hidden One]

Gotta give MS props. They give good updates for the X1.

 

[G_Berry]

3D Blu Ray fucking finally!

I can finally put away my PS3.

Lol same.

Just report him. Problemo solved....o

I sent you an invite.

 

[Kintaro]

Man, MS going in with these updates. Sony looking pathetic. =/

Which is the better BR player right now?

 

[masizzai]

Can you still refer friends to the preview program? If so, how?

 

[statham]

if your in the program, just log into it, and it gives you the option.

 

[masizzai]

On the Xbox One or on the website?

 

[Smokey]

Xbox One by default in the next few weeks.

 

[statham]

I've only done it from xbox one.

 

[El_Chino]

Can someone invite me to the program? Please and thank you!

 

[trinest]

Also can I be invited to the preview?

I like this

Wish it was done with games first instead of friends, its hard to find stuff if you haven't got it pinned or its not on your home page.

 

[MrBS]

I'm extremely happy about remote store and remote downloading. Finally.

 

[masizzai]

Alright thanks.

 

[Illusive_Juan]

So, in the preview video on Major Nelson's website, someone is playing Halo 3 ODST Campaign edition. Is this what it says when people play it on the 360?

edit:

edit 2:

Nevermind, it is the 360 according to his profile: https://account.xbox.com/en-US/Achievements/Compare?gamerTag=thecaptain

 

[italianfreak240]

I just got a 3D TV and my PS3 drive just broke so this makes me happy.

 

[Ghazi]

I sent you an invite.

Yoooo! Thanks!

Question: if I sign my profile in on a friend's console when I hang out with him, will it force update his console?

 

[Fahrenheit]

Whats the best media remote for Xbone? Might switch from PS3 to Xbone for my boo ray play back now.

 

[link1201]

No. The console gets flagged as a "Preview Console" not your Live account.

 

[Ghazi]

No. The console gets flagged as a "Preview Console" not your Live account.

What if his is the first console I sign into, since being invited? Or does it just set whichever console I have as my "Home" console to the "Preview Console"

 

[link1201]

You get an app and you are able to register and unregister from the preview from the app. It is not automatic. However, if a console has gotten a "preview update" you will not be able to get out of any additional updates within that wave even if you unregister your console .

Doesn't matter. It flags a consoles serial number. If you have more than 1 xb1 you have to register both.

If you friend wants to be in the preview program just refer him.

He doesn't. It's just, I'm kinda probably going to be signing into his One before I do on mine, to register it as the Preview. But, I understand how it works now, so I'll be good.

I would say just get the Xbox One media remote. Fairly cheap and it's designed exactly what you it for.

 

[malfcn]

Wow. Lots of cool stuff in that preview video. Sad to not see screen shot yet. But it must be coming.

 

[Roflobear]

thanks for the link

okay guys vote for the idea i did, for the sync button

This is a good idea. There needs to be a way to record clips without talking to your xbox
