The Xbone

[Kornman00]

MS doesn't want their xbone employees having the inferior black edition, so they're giving them some white ones to power their gaming http://www.theverge.com/2013/8/26/46...soft-employees

I saw that on Kotaku, and I must say that the white versions of both the Xbone and the PS4 look way more than their coloured counterparts.

I feel like I posted that back when he actually had (June), but that looks a little different from the one I remember posting. Oh well.

In other news: Xbox One will support 8 simultaneous controllers, PS4 only 4 (which is odd because they apparently had 7 for the PS3).
Xbox One will also support 16 Smartglass devices, and here's some info on the updated SmartGlass itself

24 CONTROLLERS YEAH

The ability to have eight controllers connected at once will probably be useful for perhaps sixteen people on the entire planet until they realise the console can't keep up with eight viewports.

^^ Basically - Modern gaming PC's can often have problems running the Oculus Rift at full tilt, which is 2 separately rendered screens in stereoscopic 3d at less than optimal resolution.

The XBone is going to have many problems having 8 viewports, let alone six. /PCGaming Superiority

Who says you need 8 viewports if you have 8 controllers /imaginesupersmahbroswith8ppl

Yeah, party and sports games will benefit from this. I suppose music games could make use of it too.

Think of it, you're at a party at someone's house and they have a turn-based game (eg, something like weakest link or such). What's that? You have more than four people who want to play it? But just have a PS4? Oh well. Oh hey, the neighbor has a Xbone, let's go crash his place!

If it's a turn-based game, pass the controller around.

But that would cause Kinect to blow a gasket
