Xbox One and Kinect video shows off voice dashboard navigation

4.4
Xbox One is barely weeks away but if you just can’t wait to see how Microsoft’s new console functions, here’s a video showing off dashboard navigation using Kinect-powered voice commands.


The video shows a user switching the console on; loading a video, opening the activity feed; joining a game; recording footage; sharing the captured footage; watching TV; snapping to Internet Explorer; accepting a Skype call; and switching the console off – all in an unrealistically short period of time.

The video was posted on the freshly-updated Xbox One section of Xbox.com, which is full of things you already know, but neatly collated.

The Xbox One launches on November 22 in North America, western Europe, and associated PAL territories including Australia and New Zealand. Here’s the video, courtesy of AllGamesBeta.

ADaaaMxxx Wouldn't it be quite annoying if someone came into your room and just said "Xbox off" and it turned off when you are in the middle of a game...


Well if you didn't know, it has voice recognition, so you can set it to your voice only..

i was thinking the same thing partys are also gonna be annoying with everyone shouting at their xbox to do stuff lol


Just turn the Kinect off at parties..



even if i turn mine off others will still have theirs on and yelling at their xbox everyone else would have to shut theirs off aswell


I can see this being kind of annoying, but if you're all playing the same game, it really doesn't matter.


Or like if you are in an xbox live party and you happen to leave your xbox unattended and your controller dies and someone says the simple "Xbox off" then there goes your game.

I do like how swift the whole transitions to each thing are, however consoles still don't have the same appeal to me as a decent PC gaming rig.

Pashtun You can have voice commands on the PS4 without a dumb camera/kinect. You use an ordinary mic. TTG wouldn't post this type of good news because they are bias toward the xbox one.


no.
ttg doesn't post that because everyone knows about it already. not a lot of people know about the kinect 2.0 and all the new features it brings.


No, everyone knows about what the Kinect 2.0 does because that's all they talked about at E3. And, their **** CoD Ghosts. No one knows about using a normal mic for PlayStation.


Honestly, I didn't know that the PS4 did that, until I read this comment!


Lmao. Still, the Kinect 2.0 will be 100 times better than anything that has to do with voice commands on PS4 and everyone knows that, it is clearly shown in this video.
I agree. They've clearly already demonstrated that...
