Support NeoGAF

[derFeef]

Tom Warren managed to record a short video with snapping apps to games and vice versa. Looks pretty good to me - stays fluid while loading BF4 and during game.

Another video with Killer Instinct and actual IE running on the side:

How can you tell? None of them worked.

 

[jond76]

Woo! Looks slick!

 

[Azzokk]

Its seem like it takes a lot of steps with the controller to "snap" an app... Maybe it's just me.

 

[EchoChamber]

lol a the comments
"NeaoSHAFT wrong again. Anyone who thought the OS would be bad on the XB1 needs a checkup from the neck up. Great video."

 

[John Caboose]

Looks nice.

You're supposed to be able to just say "Xbox snap internet explorer" which is 1 step. This is probably this guys first time using the snap function, once you get to know how it works I'm guessing it'll be fairly quick with the controller too.

 

[Pbae]

The same people on the comments shitting on gaf, lol.

It's sad isn't it? Though I always do chuckle.

 

[Sethos]

Oh snap

 

[Concept17]

Yes because testing a feature in only one way is a great way to find out what is wrong. He is running nothing on the snap.

 

[Spira]

What did gaf say prior to this?

 

[Syphon Filter]

Nice, slick for the most part and snap is really cool.

 

[Raydeen]

The same people on the comments shitting on gaf, lol.

Well to be fair the anti-XB1 sentiment over the last week on GAF has bordered on hysterical.

 

[lifa-cobex]

Ppl no like Gaf.

Looks pretty good to me

 

[LowParry]

I wish we could see that in a more live environment.

 

[Mugatu]

lol a the comments

Checkup from the neck up?

Who wrote that? Run-DMC?

 

[Viruz]

Why?

 

[Entrecôte]

"Sign in to start using the web"

-->> buy gold to start using skype, even if you already paying for sub LOL

Wow this box is looking worse by the day. UI looks same speed as back when the MS kid leaked as well.

 

[SPDIF]

Looks good. It's a newer build than the one in the other video.

 

[Kacho]

Very nice.

 

[Xenon]

That looks quick. I can't wait to mess around with it.

 

[Eknots]

Has gaf been in garmez jurnalism news lately? Seeing a ton of hate for us lately

 

[John Caboose]

Why?

Have you seen the Xbox 360 dashboard when not signed in/not connected to live?

 

[DopeyFish]

...worse?

 

[Dramos]

Hopefully the voice features are fluid and precise. It seems frustrating to snap an app while playing a game and not losing your momentum. Snapping with voice is the way to go!

 

[TheRealTalker]

what my real take away was no Amir0x ***** comments on the youtube page

surprising

 

[BoboBrazil]

Why?

Black space is where ads are supposed to go.

 

[dripdripsplash]

That is fairly awesome!

The snapping out of a game is also implemented in the PS4 rite ?

It's just the suspend/resume thing that is missing ?

Spoiler

Please tell me I'm right, because this is too awesome.

Yup. Altough it's just Menu>press right>snap>choose app

 

[RoadHazard]

This video shows nothing, except snapping things that don't work. Probably because absolutely nothing on this console works without Gold. Or maybe it's just currently broken. Or both.

 

[Entrecôte]

...worse?

Yes worse because everything seems to be confirming that this box is useless for the 'all in one entertainment' services unless you pay a sub. I am one (in the minority) that don't wish to do that, especially to use something like Skype which is free on all other machines.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

That comment section can't be real surely?

 

[MThanded]

Damn the plebes are salty about GAF. Let them keep hatin. We shinin.

It's not connected and no one is signed in. It shows the snapping, that's it.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

How are you people this looks good and NeogGaf is always whining? The damn apps werent even operational so what the hell are you all going on about? Show the apps working next a game and then come talk to me.

Makes no difference tbh. I ran IE side-by-side running a YouTube video and playing Forza 5 and it worked just fine with the YouTube audio playing alongside the game audio. No lag or stutter switching between them either.

.

 

[BronsonLee]

Tom Warren you damn cheapskate get Xbox Live Gold

 

[Hoo-doo]

Does it keep that "kinect is not connected" warning at all times?
That's going to be real annoying real fast.

 

[Dega]

That looks great. Can't wait to try all that stuff out.

 

[Viruz]

Have you seen the Xbox 360 dashboard when not signed in/not connected to live?

So what's there to snap if anything is behind the paywall?
What's the purpose of this video?

 

[K' Dash]

I can see people around the internet hate GAF with Burning Passion.

The UI looks nice and smooth, hope it stays that way when the Xbox is actually connected.

 

[Pain]

xbox fanboys no like gaf

Looks pretty good to me

Fixed.

 

[weekend_warrior]

Pretty cool. Wish MS sold a separate media box that let you do that with any devices you want, because I certainly wouldn't put up with shitty games just to use the internet on my TV.

 

[Guymelef]

Activision called, they want their 10% GPU back.

 

[jem0208]

That's really bloody smooth.

Quite excited to play around with the X1 OS.

 

[Silky]

Yes worse because everything seems to be confirming that this box is useless for the 'all in one entertainment' services unless you pay a sub. I am one (in the minority) that don't wish to do that, especially to use something like Skype which is free on all other machines.

what does paying a sub

and bringing up the sub in general

have to do with the video in question tho

 

[simplythebest]

Who was the insider that said the OS was crashing all the time again? Cause I really don't see it in this video.

 

[RoadHazard]

That is fairly awesome!

"Snapping" refers to placing an app side-by-side with the game, and no, the PS4 won't support that. Those GPU and memory recources will go to the game instead of that other stuff on the PS4. But it does support multitasking, yes, in that you can leave the game, do something else on the console, and instantly return to where you were in the game.

yeh no hating at GAF, hahaha!

 

[Donthizz#]

nice but, it was done in a controlled environment.
