Xbox One supports partial-download play
Microsoft previously noted that players could begin playing disc-based games during installation, though the company did not specify whether games downloaded from Xbox Live would share similar functionality. Sony announced that the PlayStation 4 supported partial-download play earlier this year.

roekzorsCosmicRift Great, even if PS4 had it first this is a awesome addition to the console.
Okay, so I will say.. You might be right. But, you don't know for sure. Xbox One could have had this feature long ago.. That is the beauty behind it. Microsoft has yet to unveil everything the Xbox One has.
Like What?

MrLonelyLobo I wonder if we'll be able to play other games while downloading this time, so annoying when I have to stay at the dashboard when I'm downloading a game on the 360.I hope so to but I doubt it'll be their because you can already play single player games while downloading but they disable multiplayer because it can make your connection really bad doing both at once.

I really don't see why people care if they copy each other. It makes the console better for the user.

Fuzzeh_X-ExtremeRage- You guys are pathetic, can you not see this is the Xbox News, you say Xbox copied this? Look at all the stuff Playstation 4 copied from Xbox 360!

Who cares who announced it first? Nobody is copying anybody, that's such an immature thing to say. If one console has a feature, it's not copying if the other also has it. I'm sure they both were planning on putting this feature in before either were announced.
