Xbox One will soon let you take in-game screenshots

4.6
Your Xbox One lets you livestream or record video to share your gaming exploits, but that's overkill when all you want to do is brag about a shiny new Forza car. Wouldn't it be nice if you could take a screenshot, like your PlayStation 4-toting friends can? You'll have that option soon. After months of promises, Microsoft's Phil Spencer has shown off an Xbox One screen capture feature that lets you share still images. He's quick to warn that this isn't the finished interface, and that the feature will get a "proper intro" when it's ready for a preview -- it could be a while before you're giving this a spin. Even so, it's good to know that you won't have to take a photo just to prove that you beat an arch-rival's score.

I can see how this will be good but you will probably have to do an annoying hotkey to do it!

I was actually thinking about something like this the other day. I wasn't sure if they had it already or not because I wanted to take a screenshot of something on the Battlefield Hardline Beta, but I didn't want to record it. This will be a nice feature to have.

I'm surprised this wasn't added in the launch since the PS4 and PC have it.

Good to see there actually adding things in and fixing things. There's a lot of annoying bugs on this console not gonna lie.

Tet This wasn't implemented yet? This seems like basic stuff the MS overlooked.


Agreed taking a screenshot is such a simple thing i dont know why the next gen consoles are leaving out these simple small details.


PS4 already had this feature, it is awesome to share moments during gameplay with friends. I remember when I had my PS3 I would take a picture with my iPod touch to share with friends lol

iBaby Adding alot to xbox one recently

shame i got rid of it but just didn't suit me, I prefer xbox 360 and all the old games, more fun and saved me alot of money.


very True, i prefer the 360. It was only when more of my friends got a One i used it more :) i think its the people you play with not the console on the whole :D
