The Xbox One
http://www.polygon.com/features/2013/5/21/4350930/xbox-one-what-we-know
http://uk.ign.com/wikis/xbox-one
Just a quick little thing about the new Xbox because I’ve just got off a late shift and have to be extra early tomorrow for a training day (the joys of management).
The technical stuff that only real bores care about. Microsoft announced the specs for the system as follows:
- 8 Core CPU
- 8 GB System Memory
- 500 GB HDD
- Blu-ray Drive
- 802.11n Wireless with Wi-Fi Direct
- HDMI In/Out
- USB 3.0
Very important news:
Clearing the air on the system’s most controversial pre-announcement rumor, Microsoft’s Don Mattrick said on Spike TV that the system doesn’t have to always be online for players to use it. Some games will require that, but it will be up to each publisher whether they want to implement those online features or piracy protection.
And:
The company did confirm the lack of backwards compatibility for One, however. In an interview with The Verge, Microsoft revealed that One won’t have any backwards compatibility with original Xbox or Xbox 360 games.
Picture of the beast, with new controller and updated Kinect system.
Release dates and prices are yet to be confirmed. IGN reckons some time in 2013 (although that may just be when the info will be released to us).
So yeh. Looks nice, a little too much like the PS3 but I’m not picky. The backwards compatibility is an issue, but I’m pretty sure that people won’t throw away their current consoles as soon as they get their hands on the new one. The fact that it doesn’t have to ‘always be online’ is a plus though. So long as the prices are stupid and the Xbox Live equivalent is as good and also reasonably priced then I’ll be happy enough.
What are your thoughts on the big news?

When Aisha Tyler was selected to be the presenter for the 2012 Ubisoft E3 press conference, she received an unprecedented flood of hate from trolls who complained about the fact that she knew nothing about gaming. Too bad haters didn’t do their homework first, because as it turns out Aisha Tyler knows more about gaming that all of us put together. Her Facebook response was awesome and predictably went viral. In case you missed it, here’s her masterpiece. Haters, take note.
Dear Gamers
I play.
I’ve played since I was a little kid.
Since I begged my dad to buy me a Nintendo LCD Donkey Kong, Jr.
Since I blew through three weeks’ allowance playing Defender at the laundromat.
Since you were a twinge in the left side of your daddy’s underoos.
I’ve been a gamer since I made friends with a girl in the 5th grade just to get at her Atari.
Since I missed the bus playing Galaga after school.
Since I missed the start of Return of the Jedi playing Tempest in the theater lobby.
You think you know. You don’t know.
I’ve been a gamer since before you could read.
Since I aced midterms after staying up all night playing Evil Tetris.
Since I became dorm champ at Leisure Suit Larry.
Since I double-wielded on Time Crisis 3 at Fuddrucker’s.
I was a voice in not one, but two major video game titles.
I hosted the Reach Beta tutorial.
I was a Gears of War superfan panelist at ComicCon.
I hosted the Ubisoft presser at E3 2012.
I didn’t do any of it for the money.
For most I got paid next to nothing, and for some, less than that.
I did it because I love video games.
Because I’ve dreamt since I was a kid of being in one of the games I love.
How many games have you done voices for?
How many cons have you repped at?
Your buddy’s Unreal Tournament garage deathmatch doesn’t count.
I go to E3 each year because I love video games.
Because new titles still get me high.
Because I still love getting swag.
Love wearing my gamer pride on my sleeve.
People ask me what console I play.
Motherfucker, ALL of them.
I get invited to E3 because real gamers know I’m a gamer.
I don’t do it for the money.
I have plenty of money.
I don’t do it for the fame.
Fuck fame.
I do it because I love video games.
I don’t give out my gamertag because I don’t want a mess of noob jackholes lining up
to assassinate me on XBL.
I don’t give a shit what you think about my gamerscore.
I don’t play to prove a point.
I don’t play to be the best.
I play because I love it.
I play.
I’ve been playing my whole life.
I’m not ashamed of it.
I don’t apologize for it.
It’s who I am.
To the core.
I’m a gamer.
So to all the haters out there who claim I don’t play;
To the GAF dicks,
Gamespot trolls,
To every illiterate racist douchebag on Youtube:
Flame away. Go nuts.
Post every jackass comment your heart desires.
I’ll still be playing when your mom’s kicked you out of her basement
and you have to sell your old-ass console
and get a real job.
For now, I say to you respectfully,
and I mean this from the bottom of my heart,
GFYS.
