Looks like win 8. It was kinda cool for a day on pc. Not sure if this will have any use on a tv.
It could be cool though.

I feel bad for those guys. :/ Up and coming YouTuber's, forming a group, trying to make a name for themselves and get an audience. Validate themselves as hopefully the next gaming news site or channel, and the first video they upload that's getting attention is getting decimated in dislikes by the "console war".
There were whispers of IGN doing a video, but I'm not to sure of what became of it. We've also seen Shu demo the UI live at Gamescom on stage while MS has never shown a live demo anywhere. Judging from the video, it looked like it still has some work to go.
Instead of bickering over previous rumors, can someone please answer me if we know yet whether or not we can keep the original aspect ratio when snapping instead of squishing the screen?
Also, can I move the snap window and overlay it on the screen anywhere I'd like?
Basically I don't want to squish the picture, but it would be great to be able to put a walkthrough video wherever a game has less use of the screen. So for example, you can take over part of the HUD on the lower right corner instead of squishing the whole picture.
Thanks!

Why does the video have an equal amount of likes to dislikes since it was posted on GAF? I swear it's gone up by 40+ dislikes since it was posted here...
Is there something objectionably wrong with he video? Why the dislikes? As a video maker, it's frustrating when people dislike your content with no explanation why. It's a consent worry of "What did I do wrong? Is my quality not good enough? Is my voice bad? Was I unfunny? Did I offend someone?". It's really rude to dislike a video for no reason. :/
power subtracted to games
PS4+tablet >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> xbox one experience
Far from useless imo. Say you are waiting to respawn in a game and need to look up something. snap it.
Well, I have to take my eyes away from the screen for second screen stuff or tablet, here I can keep playing while paying attention to something else too. That experience could be possible if I mounted a tablet next to my TV but this sounds way more convenient to me.
A left part and a right part, really confusing.
?
Because MS is not showing a 3-4 minute little tutorial video for a feature that is defining their console about 23 days away from launch because of licensing issues?
Uh, I don't see anything "slick" in that video. I see some very clunky smushed web browsing on the screen with Killer Instinct.
How do we know it was Live? It could have just as well been staged, much like every other E3 presentation.There were whispers of IGN doing a video, but I'm not to sure of what became of it.

Is the Snap feature supposed to also work without Kinect? I'd love to never plug that thing in...
I'm still not sure why I would ever want to use this?

I think I'll stick with using my phone or laptop beside me for web browsing. Can I use the snap feature for watching TV? Netflix, Hulu? Would be cool

The snap window is too small. It's the same deal on Windows 8. The tiling implementation is just not big enough to do anything besides load a small list (like a build order for SC2, skill order for League/Dota, Tweets). The tiling is just bad. I wish MS would give us more robust tiling options. Not even awesome or xmonad levels, but just something a little more.
Holy shit that looks bad....Who the fuck wants 1/4 an internet explorer page taking up the same screen they're playing games on?
That was one of their examples I believe. Having a NFL or any sports game snapped to side while playing a Xbox game.Looks okay.
Should get better as it comes long. Compare original 360 dash, to what it is now. Night and day.
I think that being able to follow a stream while you play would be great. Can you display a cable signal (HDMI) through the Xbone? Would be great to hook up the cable box, and watch a football game while playing on the other side. Might be compressed, but worth it if you could do something like that.
I guess. For things that you want instant notification of - eg scores, twitter updates etc it might be useful to have it in your line of sight but not necessarily fully focused on it. It will be interesting to see what people come up with for that area.
That's because we haven't used it. I think once we get hands on, we'll love this feature.

Sorry I should have reiterated in my post, what application does this have in a world full of smartphones/tablets?

By the looks of it I'd have died half a dozen times by the time I find what I need. I'd rather just pull out my smartphone for a quick google search.
Snapped tv on the other hand is a different story. That is a feature I would want.
Why not just allow the user to snap like old school picture-in-picture? And of course allow the user to decide which corner or space on the screen to put the PiP in case there are HUD elements on screen.
