Xbox One game DVR clips only shareable on Xbox Live at launch

4.5
Gameplay footage captured using Xbox One's DVR functionality will only be shareable on Xbox Live at launch.

During a Tokyo Game Show demonstration, Xbox One head of product planning Albert Penello told Destructoid that gameplay footage will be shareable on social networks like YouTube and Facebook some time next year.

Xbox One will automatically record five minutes of gameplay. DVR functionality will play back at a fixed 30 frames per second in 720p resolution, irrespective of the game's native settings.

Xbox One owners will require an Xbox Live Gold subscription if they want to make use of the console's game DVR functionality.

PS4 will continually record 15 minutes of gameplay data in the background for users to capture and publish online.

Recorded PS4 data can be brought up using the DualShock 4's Share button, allowing players to edit and crop footage and share it across social networks via Ustream.

PS4 owners won't require a PlayStation Plus subscription to use the console's video capture features.

Breading this is quite a disappointment


I agree,

It is terrible because it's only going to record 5minutes when PS4 will be at least 15 minutes of recording continuously.


As a future PS4 owner, I'm very glad we have got 15 minutes instead of 5.


Although I do agree that 15 is better than 5, I still think that this doesn't take away from the betterness of the Xbone than the PS4.

I wonder how long it will take for them to be shareable via YouTube... That is where the main viewer base is for clips and videos.

I don't see how this makes any sense at all...

-Lamborgini Microsoft ripping you off for more than 10 years.


I don't think they are ripping anyone off. Personally I think that they will just be testing the function to see how it pan's out, then they will expand onto the social media market.

It means that it be limited to only sharing on xbox live not any social media sites until a while after. this doesn't mean that it will only be at launch that you can share
