Cyimking One thing that i'm interesting in is the whole friend using kinect thing. What if i'm in the middle of the game and my friends says "Xbox turn off." Does my console get turned off or what? Also can we sue our own remote for the TV feature or do we have to buy one? ..


He won't be able to do it if he's not signed in on your Xbox. The Kinect knows to match your voice to your account (from what it looks like in the video), therefore if a friend tried to say something on your account, I don't think it would work since it's not your voice.

I would hope that they could do some sort of voice recognition aspect, if not that then maybe you can only use those commands when you hold the xbox button down or something?

This console looks like it's going to be really nice. Even if you're not a gamer it's an all in one system.

Envelope Idk if i wanna get the xbox one


Do your research on each alternative (including PC) and make an educated decision on it. There is no need to get it on launch day or anything if you're not devoted to buying it

I remember when I thought turning on the Xbox with a controller was amazing.
