Starting your next Xbox with "Xbox on" voice command

4.5
The next-generation Xbox will be coming with voice recognition right out of the box, according to sources. By using the verbal command of "Xbox on" the Xbox should start up.

You should also be able to ask your Xbox, "What are my friends playing?" and it should show you a list of who's doing what online so that you can join the fun.

The next-generation Xbox will also be revamped, meaning the new Xbox is going to talk back to you when you ask it a question. The big question is, what kind of personality is Microsoft going to give to it?

Also, since Microsoft owns Skype, the VOIP service is expected to find its way into the next-generation console.

Reports have said that Microsoft's next console could also stop playing second-hand, or pre-owned games, thanks to the always-on Internet connection that verifies each title.

We are all expecting an announcement with more details to come at E3 this summer, so we can put rumors aside.

yay Useless. Who wants to scream at your Xbox when you can just click a button.


haha i agree. our generation is trying to make everything hands free when really it's just making us lazier.


I doubt us not having to puch one button is going to make that much of a difference though...


well if someones lying in bed already and they want to watch netflix then they have to get up and turn it on(unless they have their controller) but with this they can stay within the nice confines of their blankets and say 2 words w/o picking up a finger.

Got some time to think, and I've come up with the conclusion that this is even more pointless. What if it was voice only? That means at midnight when you wanna watch some netflix, you have to yell at your console to turn it on! No one wants that!


You're right, completely stupid. I hope this isn't really implemented..


I'm sure it will be implemented, should be an option however!


Options, options, options.. WE NEED OPTIONS.

I didn't even consider that, people will really not like this if they use their consoles in the evening or at night.
