If it's that fluid I'm pretty impressed

Absolutely. Thus far i'm very sceptic and i'm wondering what the drawbacks will be.

 

[Tsundere]

Eyes are rolling so bad here. It's a promotional demo video.

Now you'd be right.

 

[danwarb]

It should be very quick to apps, TV, and whatever game is loaded/running.

They should demo launching things that aren't already highlighted. "Go to" anything will speed things up considerably.

Looks proper amazing though.

Eyes are rolling so bad here. It's a promotional demo video.

I don't think anyone is arguing that the idea is cool.
People are just skeptical about the practicality of it all.

 

[KillGore]

Looks nice but you should all realize it won't be this snappy. The video was uploaded instantly? come on lol

 

[Milchjon]

Loving this. Stuff like this actually gets me more hyped about next-gen than any of the games on either platform so far :-/

Hope it actually comes anywhere near this.

 

[Majine]

I hope I don't become a terrible person who spends 2 seconds on each thing I do in front of a TV.

 

[Cru]

It's faked, the Xbox logo appears before he even speaks.

I can't tell if this is real or fake http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OegYm1dM9g

 

[Steverulez]

Look very nice aesthetically although I'm sure its been edited to hell. Can't wait to get my hands on it though.

 

[Visualante2]

Doubt it transitions that fast between the various activities. Still nice though.

In terms of just running a game the beta does handle itself quite well http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=QDlPs7Xx2gA#t=57

 

[mangochutney]

Last we saw of it, it was still a buggy mess; and if CBOAT is right on, it's still going to be a mess.

Yes, but it being staged is not proof that it either is or is not that fast and fluid.

 

[KORNdoggy]

Eyes are rolling so bad here. It's a promotional demo video. Relax, warrior.

Usually they need disclaimers though...i'm guessing by law. Even apple ads have them...but maybe that stuff isn't the same in the US as in the UK?

God the music in this sucks so hard.

 

[Risk Breaker]

Stuff like this is why I went with XB1. I just expect the user experience and non gaming services to be leaps and bounds better than what the market offers. Being in the US, I'll get access to all of it also.

Temper your expectations

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

What the hell is wrong with some of you guys lol? Thread seriously has me cracking up.

 

[UNCMark]

It's on the official Xbox website. The game and TV footage was likely inserted as a means to demonstrate the UI, not actually running in real time.



I didn't see any advertisements, unless you're talking about surfacing content available on the store. I enjoy that sort of promotion, since it's lead to some good recommendations a number of times. It's the external advertisements of the current dashboard that I loathe. At any rate, accessing your content seems even faster than it was on the 360 (same basic grid system highlighting your most recent activity, the new pin section, plus Kinect), so I doubt it will be an inconvenience to navigate.

The benefit of having an integrated store/UI is a seamless experience. As long as they keep the McDonalds/ATT etc ads off the main UI, it'll be fine by me.

 

[Z_Y]

God damnit, MS. Why did you have to screw the pooch on HW. Could have have saved me $450 this fall.

 

[Portugeezer]

"Come play Killzone!"

"Dude, I don't got that man"

Definitely real.

 

[VanWinkle]

I can't tell if this is real or fake http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OegYm1dM9g

That is not shown in real-time, though. It's a different style of UI demonstration.

 

[spannicus]

This will shit all over Sonys UI. Lawd have a mercy

 

[GrizzleBoy]

Loving this. Stuff like this actually gets me more hyped about next-gen than any of the games on either platform so far :-/

Same.

The games aren't ground breaking in any way, shape or form for the moment.

The general user experience however, is taking a big step forward.

 

[Always-honest]

I'd love someone to do EXACTLY the same when it releases, and then compare.

 

[Kacho]

Can't wait to give this stuff a go. Looks very nice.

 

[UNCMark]

Is that real or fake? If real, YUCK. What an awful UI.

That always makes me laugh when his mate calls him asking to play killzone...

"Dude, i don't got that man"

Who talks like that that...hell, why does sony THINK people talk like that?

 

[TheLegendary]

Looking great. These are the sort of things that makes next gen exciting.

 

[reKon]

Or this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaPoLJyDZmM

joke post?

 

[Salex_]

C'mon guys, obviously it's heavily edited. It's giving you an idea of what to expect. Do you really think we will have SICK GUITAR RIFFS as we navigate the UI?

Yes. Yes we will.

An idea of what to expect? Why not just show real world performances to see what we'll expect when the console launches? If you said that earlier when the console was revealed I would understand but now isn't the time to use heavily edited "simulation" footage.

 

[lunlunqq]

Not saying that the real thing won't work as smoothly as this; but clearly this is clearly just a PR video, not a real-time demo. As someone pointed out earlier, the titanfall "gameplay" part is actually the E3 promotion clip.

[RukusProvider]

Temper your expectations

nah. I'm good with my expectations. The way the system is staged is specifically to deliver things like this.

If anything, the 360 showed what they were able to do with a system NOT designed with this in mind.

Will it be amazing day 1. maybe not but from day 1 to day 365 will be a major difference.

Japanese companies interpretation of the young western male lol.

 

[Barkley's Justice]

I can't even begin to tell you how much I will not be using voice commands.

 

[DirgeExtinction]

Super old Titanfall footage? Is this a really good fake?

He jumped into Titanfall mad instantly.

Also, not having to press the share button to share...that's pretty good, know?

In the time it takes for someone to say "Xbox, record", someone else can easily press the PS4 share button before they're finished saying it.

Anyway, I thought the majority of people disliked the Windows 8 Metro UI, which this is based off of.

Which will bring up the menu?

 

[Erasus]

The Titanfall footage being just a trailer makes it seem fake. It will probably be that fast, hell my PC with SSD+8GB RAM pretty much is. If its in RAM its instantly loaded.

But Ill wait for a real video before cheering. That was so fake.

 

[SwiftDeath]

I'll wait to see videos of people doing it in their homes to judge

I think MS will make it work well just not sure how fast tbh

Clearly they want it work fast

 

[falconbox]

Is that real or fake? If real, YUCK. What an awful UI.

Guess I'll be too busy playing games most of the time to care about the UI. But that's just me.

Meh, I take Google Chrome Cast + Nexus 7 for controlling of any media. Once HBO Go and the other big services are added, that's all I'll need. I already can stream all my my music via google music effortlessly. With Xbox One, everything is stuck behind a paywall, which isn't a big deal for you I guess if Xbox One is going to be your only console and you're going to playing online.

 

[Dynze]

Comment from the uploader: "this is just a cut together video to show off commands and menus."
Waiting for real time footage.

 

[Always-honest]

Same here. I think it will make the world a worse place to live in.
But i do think it's impressive tech if/ when it works well.

 

[danwarb]

Like game trailers aren't just some guy sat there playing the game. This is showing some of the UI functionality in a short video.

 

[blurredvision]

I like the left bar on the main screen that we've only recently started seeing.

 

[JB1981]

Does it really work that seamlessly ? Somehow I doubt it. Extremely impressive if so

 

[Blueblur1]

That's a demo video made for the mainstream audience. None of that looks real. Especially with that old Titanfall footage they're showing.

This is ridiculous. Everyone does this. All of Apple's promotional videos are simulated. It's how these ads are done
