Xbox One captures the last 5 minutes of gameplay
Speaking to GameSpot in a Killer Instinct video interview conducted at San Diego Comic-Con, he provided new details about the console's game DVR functionality.
"It's called 'Project Upload', he said. "So the idea is that you're always recording. We have a ring buffer game DVR basically, so the last five minutes of any game you're playing is always being stored locally on your hard drive.
"Let me give you two scenarios. Scenario one: I'm playing online and I just did the best thing ever. I can't pause [because] I'm playing online. You can say 'Xbox, record that', it'll grab the last 30 seconds and save it for you to play with later.
"So now let's say you're not playing online and you do the best combo or you have the best fight ever," Lobb continued. "You can finish after that fight, that thing you just did is within the last five minutes, you can go into that last five minutes and scrub it for the best stuff - I want that four seconds and this ten seconds and this 30 seconds and then I want that ultra combo.
"We have things, basically a wrapper, so you can put up something that comes before and after, the [example] video we showed said 'best of Evo', and you can also if you'd like voiceover and even put in some stuff from the Kinect camera, do picture-in-picture."
PS4 owners will also be able to share gameplay and screenshots using the DualShock 4's 'Share' button. According to the Guardian, Neil Brown, head of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's R&D group, said earlier this month that PS4 uses a dedicated hardware encoder to continually record the last "several minutes" of gameplay footage, without taking up any processor resources.

Yet another great feature in my opinion. And yes it does save people from going out and buying a capture card.

This will be a great feature for people who do not have a capture card.
This will give them a alternative to record gameplay rather than going out and purchasing a capture card.

So you cannot actually record offline. And only the last five minutes. Lets be honest, when ever did something worth while happen in the last 5 min. In SnD, the last round can last way more than 5 minutes.

I just read all these comments. Please can you read it CAREFULLY. You have a choice to record it or not, not gonna take up space UNLESS YOU make it. This is why people switch to PS4 then RIGHT BACK to Xbox One once they know what it can do.

grunt987654TTG_Semper-Fithings I hope there is an option to turn this off. 5 minute recordings add up quick and take up a lot of storage especially for cod players
But you gotta remember you have a 500gb hard drive.
Do you still have to mandatory install all games? Because if you do, 500 gb isn't going to last very long at all.
No, i don't think so you just run the games off the disc, you don't have to install them

You do realize unless the user clicks save (or whatever) it'll delete everything over 5 minutes in the past. this means unless you want to keep a recording (your choice) it doesn't matter how long you play for. the last 5 minutes of game-play will always store the same amount (not that much) and won't add up. this means there is no point turning it off. if you want to save space don't save any clips simple.
