Xbox One is “uncapped”, according to Phil Harrison
“When you’ve been around for a long time, you know what platforms are like,” Harrison told OXM. “The games you celebrate and are proud of in the first year, when you look back at them from the perspective of ten years from now; you’d be amazed at the difference. It’s a combination of the tools getting better, developers beginning to understand the unique architecture to work with.”
Harrison credits the Xbox One’s flexibility of the cloud and that its potential will be unlocked over time.
“Crucially this time around, there’s the power of the cloud and what that means for game design,” he said. “That can grow and scale indefinitely – of course there is a practical limit but in effect you’re uncapped. And I think, from a player’s perspective, that’s the most exciting part; that it’s not just about the chips in the box under the television or wherever you position your console of choice, it’s about what the platform will provide you with over time. We’ve not had that in a console generation before.”
In addition to Game DVR, SmartGlass and Kinect integration, Harrison said that there were five other features in Microsoft’s pipeline ready to come out.

HOFWish I'm excited to hear what new features will be released soon. I am waiting to get a next gen console, but this may persuade me to pick one up sooner rather than later.
When i first read this i thought the same thing but i will be waiting for 2-4 years as the price needs to go down $300 for me to buy it.
It's going to be quite a while before it hits $300.

Same here man, I can't wait to hear what they'll have in store for us next.
It's pushing me more and more to actually get one.

TTGxUehleinbxAue-Chiefs Prices with these consoles will continue to get more expensive over th years.
I don't really think this is true. Why/How would that happen?
"Why/How" Why would something become more expensive? Better parts = more money.
Maybe for PC, yeah. I don't remember the 360 shooting up in price over the years. It dropped down in price because they did not make significant changes to a console over just a few years. There is more than just changing a few pieces for consoles.

Just think Cod 4 and compare it to Cod ghosts or black ops 2. The enhancements, both graphical and how the game plays are extremely noticeable. We can expect the same here.
