Xbox One Review

It's fair to say the Xbox One hasn't had the easiest introduction to the world. At its announcement it was derided for a host of deficiencies compared to its big competitor, the . It required an always-on internet connection, you couldn't sell on games once you'd finished with them, it had seemingly...

Microsoft Xbox One

With E3 2015 safely in the rearview mirror and the Xbox One's second anniversary fast approaching, we're diving back in the home console pond to take the temperature of the current landscape of videogame consoles.
Pros:
  • Microsoft's Xbox One offers impressive graphics and a solid list of exclusive 2015 titles
  • The Microsoft console currently edges ahead of the PS4 with a better selection of media apps
  • The console's fall-2015 dashboard update is a noticeable improvement.
Cons:
  • The Xbox One's new interface is still more convoluted than the PS4's
  • In general, the PS4 delivers slightly better installation times, graphics and performance on cross-platform games
  • The Xbox One also lags behind the PS4 in its selection of indie games
  • The Kinect's legacy is still a blemish

Xbox's don't work

Excellent price for Xbox One Elite but when my son tried to play a game on it for his birthday nothing happened. Got in touch with the company wanting exchange and they just said get in touch with Microsoft as its under warranty, not good enough.

Not exactly what I was hoping for

I wished I would of asked more people about the pros of this console but with 4 to 5 free games I justified it. Just didn't except it would be tying up my internet connection for 5 days updating the 4 to 5 games that came with it.
Pros:
  • The graphics once you get them working after updates look decent
Cons:
  • - No HDMI CEC support
  • - Games appear to be installed which takes a while and even with the partial install play while you wait its a bad UX
  • - Game updates like for Star Wars Battlefield was 16.8GB which stretches the term update to the max.

This system is superior to the PS4

This system is superior to the PS4. Its ease of use, comfortability and companionship are not comparable to machines before it. It can only be surpassed by the X-Box Two. I cannot wait for anything else Microsoft ejects to us grateful consumers!

Xbox One Review

I think we'll look back at 2016 as a landmark year for console gaming – the year when manufacturers ditched the whole idea of console generations to follow a more straightforward, less risky smartphone-like release model where you no longer abandon your existing hardware and customer base every five...
Pros:
  • Great exclusive titles
  • Superb controller
  • Improved software and apps ecosystem
  • More strong games on the horizon
Cons:
  • Struggling to match the PS4 on raw performance
  • Big and bulky
  • Superceded by the Xbox One S with Xbox One X on the way

Pros:
  • Robust internal specs
  • Oodles of potential
  • Improved controls
Cons:
  • Hulking brute of a machine
  • Lack of killer launch titles
  • Eye-watering price tag
