Xbox One won’t get a lot of “stuff” 360 has for “for a while”
IGN posed to Penello that Microsoft’s promise of all these great Xbox One features might be miss-selling the console to territories that won’t be receiving them, he replied, “I think even in the U.S., there’s going to be a lot of stuff that was on 360 that isn’t going to be on Xbox One for a while.
“Y’know, it’s an interesting dynamic that you find yourself in with console launches, but particularly when you’re coming from a super mature platform… in the old days of console transitions, the expectation of what would be moving to the next console was basically isolated to games. And if you think about all the stuff we’ve done with Xbox 360 and how much it’s different in the last ten years, you basically have ten years of innovation, ten years of experiences, and then, trying to take that and build an entirely new platform, with new hardware and a new software architecture.
“I mean, I totally understand people’s frustrations, and it’s hard to give an answer beyond the fact that, from my seat, it’s a console transition and this is part and parcel. There’s a lot of things that we’ll talk about in our vision for the product that aren’t going to be there at launch.”
Then came some Xbox One TV talk, which seems to be Microsoft’s ‘go-to’ topic as of late. Penello continued, “TV, if you want to continue, would be another criticism. We talk a lot about TV and that’s only going to work basically in Japan and the U.S. at launch where you have HDMI-in scenarios, so you’ll say ‘hey, what if I have a terrestrial over the air?’
“We won’t have a solution for that right away, but we still sell it as part of the vision. So it’s honest criticism and you’d love to have the new launch be everything that you had before and more, but unfortunately it’s an untenable [proposition].”
What do you think of Microsoft selling this “vision” as one complete package to territories that won’t be able to experience it for a while? Let us know what you think below.

brendan64shark Ya I really don't care the Xbox one is going to be great anyway.
It is going to be great, but it would be cool to see some stuff from the 360 on it aswell.

Microsoft is way too focused on the gimmicky aspects of their new console i.e. TV and Kinect. Although those features are cool, I'm certainly not paying $500 (before tax) to yell across the room at an inanimate object to change channels or swap devices. I've pressed the input button for 10+ years to access my platform's source and it's gotten me this far. Let's not reinvent the wheel, MS needs to stop avoiding the unavoidable and let us know what we will have (or won't) at launch so those of us who have a 360 can debate if selling it straight away is really in our best interest or if we should hold on to those relics for things like our beloved Netflix.

I think the Xbox one will be a good console once its released no one know anything for sure and everyone is making a lot of assumptions but at the en of the day both consoles run the games the same way except exclusive that's the only thing that seperates the two I'm going with the Xbox one it more secure and a way better online experience

All of you are childish. Both the Xbox one and ps4 will take time to evolve and get more stuff added to it idiots. We don know what cool stuff will be available 5 years from now? This article true for both consoles. And anyway, they haven't even been released so stop saying one is better than the other cause you an imbisile.
