That's in this update as well.

"The updated YouTube experience also allows you to watch YouTube videos in Snap Mode, add individual YouTube videos to your Pins, earn Media Achievements, and add your YouTube channels to OneGuide for instant access to YouTube videos right next to your favorite TV listings or App Channels."

OW YISSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!

missed that thanks!

 

[xkramz]

But they only added streaming from the console recently, whereas it was available on the competition back in November... how is that quickest?

Overall, this is definitely a good update to have. It'll boost visibility of Xbox One online, hopefully, and will pressure Sony to get their YouTube functionality out the door faster. Having the ability to copy PS4 videos directly to a thumbdrive is a nice step, but having the direct-to-YouTube "button" would help make the share feature all the more powerful.

I'd take quality over anything. Just like driveclub I'm glad they delAyed it. Quality should be number one

 

[D'ultimate]

Right On!! You don't need to worry, the cozy feeling of picking the "right" console based on the hive mind will keep you warm for a while longer.

Might want to edit that "hive mind" out. It's frowned upon.

 

[Friction]

Wonder if the sudden surge of features has anything to do with Phil Spencer.

 

[rokkerkory]

This is where MS can be a huge differentiator, apps!

Everything is apps enabled now.

 

[RoadHazard]

I understand what you are saying, but it's hard to deny that Xbox is really pushing out some great stuff lately. But I don't think the XBO is going to "catch up" to the PS4 just because they are adding more features than the competetion.

Absolutely, these updates are great for XBO owners. And I do agree that Sony needs to get some stuff out there soon, we haven't had anything significant added since launch. But the people who seemingly view this as the tides turning, like Sony has lost its momentum and it's now MS's race to win, strike me as placing far too much importance on a few new features.

I doubt it. He's only been head of xbox for a very short period of time. You don't make updates like this in just a day or two.... or maybe you do. I really don't know I guess. But if I had to guess, I'd say this stuff was gonna happen regardless of who's heading up the Xbox division.

This is probably Marc Whitten's work.

 

[Exploratory]

It's just funny how some people are like "oh shit, the XBO is totally gonna crush the PS4 now" because of a few nice software updates.

I haven't seen anyone say that. Can you point them out?

 

[R3TRO]

MS is bringing the goods lately with these updates.

Yeah. You're probably right. Just a thought. Hopefully this trend continues though. Cant wait for Plex next.

 

[MDX]

Gotta say, Microsoft seems to be moving a lot faster than Sony on added features.

Hardware vs Software.

Who will win in the end?

 

[driver116]

This is not behind the paywall right? Also, Sony your turn.

 

[GoldenA]

Everything is behind the paywall

 

[StoopKid]

That's great news. Hopefully this will encourage Sony to do the same. YT uploading is a gamechanger IMO.

Lol

 

[Sweep14]

Step your game up Sony. Why can't I export straight to my youtube? Why do I have to use my facebook?

Step your game up MS. Why can't I export straight to my facebook? Why do I have to use my youtube?

See ? It works both ways... ;-)

Yeah but one of those ways sounds less dumb ;-)

 

[Creaking]

Wuh oh, Sony, better get on that!

Hope these two keep each other improving back and forth.

 

[Sweep14]

Personnal preference...

 

[MCD]

I'd rather they change Youtube UI first.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Come on Sony, bring this feature to PS4 please.

It will come one day, now with this out. Maybe even sooner!

 

[EagleEyes]

Personnal preference...

Sounds like you surely have one based on your defensive posts in this thread.

 

[trixx]

Quickest on interating.

Also isn't the streaming on XB1 more comprehensive?

I wasn't being sarcastic, I genuinely think its a cool feature. I wish Nintendo could implement youtube uploading on the wii u, but it's probably not going to happen until their next console lol.

 

[Biker19]

It's just funny how some people are like "oh shit, the XBO is totally gonna crush the PS4 now" because of a few nice software updates.

Yeah, it's just laughable.

 

[RoadHazard]

Not in those words, but comments implying pretty much that.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

I haven't seen anyone say that. Can you point them out?

This one was funny...

Wow is there anything the Xbone can't do? They should honestly raise the price at this point, Sony is absolutely dead in the water.

 

[Gabotron ES]

wow this thread turned to shit, congrats.

 

[m23]

That was sarcasm.

 

[Dunlop]

wow tis thread turned to shit, congrats.

It's there a xb1 topic that doesn't?

I'm hoping all these quick improvements have some sales impact to get Sony to rev their ui team to a speed at least a notch above glacial

 

[Mugatu]

I thought it already had this? My friend has been uploading clips of BF4 and Titanfall to his Youtube.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

It's equally funny that like one person said it, most likely trolling/joking, and then there's like 10 people saying that "people" have been saying this, acting like this is the general consensus. Come on now.

 

[dreamer3kx]

You can but you have to upload to onedrive (which takes forever, FIX THIS SHIT MS!) first then from there to youtube from pc, this lets you upload straight to youtube.

 

[flkraven]

 

[opticalmace]

Lol

Does gamechanger have some definition I'm not aware of? I think it'll be awesome to see all the crazy random things that happen in games that in the past most people wouldn't bother recording because of the inconvenience.

Sony has always been slow with updates,i remember last gen we were waiting so long for a meaningful update.

 

[Exploratory]

This one was funny...

Clear sarcasm though.

But yeah my point was no one said that. They did say Sony needs to get it together and deliver updates. And they do.

 

[StudioTan]

Hardware vs Software.

Who will win in the end?

The one with the best content.

 

[I Want Your Cat]

I'm going to try out the snap feature, if I can make a quick video queue on my phone and watch it to my xbox then I'm happy.

 

[Prine]

PS4 had sharing first, and xbone still doesn't have screenshot capture. Xbone has YouTube support, PS4 doesn't yet.

This isn't a case of either of them chasing each other. They're just pushing out updates and feature additions at their own pace and priority. YouTube is a huge win though because it's so widely used and where most game footage on the net ends up anyway. Sony likely understand that so hopefully we get an update.

To be honest though it seems a bit impatient to choose a 'side' based on the availability of features that could come out on the other box the day you buy one.

It was in response to a poster claiming MS are trying to reach parity with Sony, i stated before that the philosophy behind thier direction is different so i agree with you there. I was more or less highlighting MS ability to release with ease and frequency, which gives people confidence in the system as its evolving swiftly.

Step your game up MS. Why can't I export straight to my facebook? Why do I have to use my youtube?

See ? It works both ways... ;-)

HOLY SHIT!

 

[reKon]

nice lol

 

[Ludicrous Speed]

Has it? Are console sales actually shifting over from the PS4 to the XBO, or are you just reading way too much into MS currently being a bit better at updating their console with new features?

It sure looks that way. I guess we'll have to wait for sales figures, but there has definitely been some very positive feedback for the xbox one as of late. Things on the PS4 front have been fairly quiet as well.

Last I heard the PS4 was still sold out just about everywhere, while the XBO can easily be found (even in countries where it hasn't even been officially released yet). Has that changed recently? We'll see.

xbox has been found easy for a while. ps4 is not in stock since late march. seems they got the supply fixed.

good things seem to happen when you bug him.

anecdotal but seems like supply in the us for ps4 has stabilized. all of my best buys in the Los Angeles area have stock for in store and online purchase. i saw 5 ps4s and 5 xbox ones in a cage yesterday. it should be a lot easier for most people in the US to find a ps4 now. can't speak for our brothers in EU though

Yeah...here in central Missouri PS4 has been pretty easy to come by for about a month now. See both systems every time I run to the mall lately. PS4 camera's on the other hand...

camera thing is a totally weird phenomenon. i don't really see that many people streaming on live from playstation but apparently these thing selling like hotcakes or just a huge shortage. i think they still going on ebay from 90-100

 

[Messofanego]

I'm so thankful I never bought a $100-200 capture device setup XD

You can never compare a decent capture setup and a build in record setup.
You can so much more with a "real" setup.

Last time I saw the camera for sale was december near christmas. Buddy of mine has been looking for one for his launch unit for ages now.
