However, Microsoft has announced that DEVELOPERS not wanting to use Kinect receive a 10% performance increase. Thus, we can expect an increasing scarcity of Kinect games for the benefit of the best games that do not use it. For someone like me who never uses Kinect, this pack has advantages.
Price is also an important part of this pack: in fact, Microsoft has launched an offensive against the view of the good sales figures of his rival PS4. The price of this pack is thus aligned with that of the PS4 or 399.
In this package there:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- 1 Wireless Controller + batteries included,
- 1 HDMI cable,
- 1 Xbox One,
- 1 Wired Headset,
- Ability to create 3 accounts with one month of free Xbox Live each.
The interface
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
On the interface is of Windows Metro 8, similar to 360, although sharper and functional. You can connect the box directly to the internet One to have only lit device that handles everything (hence the name "One"). Moreover, a remote control has been specially designed for this idea of all-in-one. Moreover, what is particularly nice is that you can watch TV at the same time that we play (to follow the score of a football match, for example), and then open a small window on the side to go on the internet to find a solution for the success you want to unlock.
You can also capture the gameplay and upload it, so eventually the acquisition boxes for people who use it rarely like me.
Xbox 360 Experience
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
If you have an Xbox 360, you can of course take your gamertag and your Gscore. You will notice a list of friends much larger and a new reputation system (color), much more reliable than the old with the stars of the 360 completely useless. You keep of course your Gold subscription and credits.
A new controller
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Regarding the controller, Microsoft comes out with this very heavy joystick xbox one, which I think is better than the 360. joysticks equipped with grips, vibrant triggers, a directional pad revisited, and of course, you can connect the controller to the PC . Finally, the only negative point of this controller are the batteries. Released in 2013, the controller could at least be equipped with a battery. Allow 30 to a rechargeable battery.
Storage space
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Regarding GB is like that sold 500 with Kinect. Given that it is necessary to install the games, the space will be filled very quickly. Note that this is an internal hard drive, that is to say that you can not remove or change it to put a larger capacity. Do not panic, you can connect your own hard drives!
Connect your old helmet ...
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
If like me you had a headset to play your favorite games on your console, be aware that it is possible to use it on Xbox One. Unfortunately, you will pay 25 for an adapter and make some manipulations in the console settings.
... Or your new helmet
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
As I tell you, if you already had a headset or you just buy a new one, of course you can connect it to your Xbox One. If you do not have and do not want to spend money and headphones and adapter, Microsoft just released his headphones xbox one very easy to install (one cable connected to the controller).
Games With Gold
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Finally, those for which the console would be too expensive to afford to buy several sets off, know that there the Games With Gold program that offers two free games each month. However, you must be a gold member, that is to say, have subscribed to a paid subscription. On top of that, you keep the games offered for life!
Watch TV with your points!
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
No need to have necessarily a box to watch your favorite TV channels directly on your Xbox One. With Digital Tuner TV, you can watch any channel they like on your TV. Also, you can pause and rewind. You can also anchor chain on the side of your game (to see when ends the pub for example). But what is even better is that you can look directly at the TV anywhere in the house via tablet or smartphone with the SmartGlass application connected to your xbox one which broadcasts TV streams! So, if you crave to play on the living room TV and your wife / husband (parents) wants to watch TV, they can do it while watching on the tablet or smartphone!
You are now equipped to start a new adventure!
Oh yes I forgot, a (very) big bet to day waiting for you at the first lighting of the console connected to the Internet.
