Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Exclusive: Xbox One TV hands-on demo”.
Well, hey guys, it’s the Arthur verge, I’m here in Redmond, Washington, Xbox Studios with Jeff Henshaw who’s gon na show me walk you through the Xbox one dashboard for the first time, I’m really excited about it. We’Ve actually put a cover over the Kinect sensor, which we’re now going to dramatically remove it’s gon na, see me and automatically walk in the end, and I’ve already set up some preferences here. So it’s saw me logged me in I picked hot pink, which I think was the right choice, and Here I am just at the the home screen of gas. Wasser looks very familiar very much like the 360 and I’ve been banging around it without actually any help, because it’s just no trouble picking it up at all right.
So I can just say: Xbox watch TV watch, TV, that’s right and then I can say Xbox Xbox one guide. You have to kind of end a sentence before you start saying Xbox. So there was a kind of it needs.
It needs to listen. You so Xbox. One guide and there’s your programming guide, I mean I actually just want to stay right on killing nightmares. I don’t know why.
I’M watching. What’S on the Discovery Channel, it’s gon na jump to the Discovery Channel and I can just say: watch the show mm- watch this channel and it’s gon na change the channel right to the Discovery Channel. So this is the thing I haven’t been playing that which is? It’S showing me the Comcast guy, but it goes right. We are. We are definitely watching TV right through your Comcast box that you already had in your living room yeah.
So I mean that’s the TV integration is there. The guide looks really pretty out channel, so I can say Xbox guys stopping us all. My senses Xbox one guide, Xbox one guide doesn’t like this Xbox one guy. That goes, and I can go to one of the app channels right I can say what’s on Hulu, actually you want to hop over to AB channels. First, oh you wan na, say: ok AB channels.
I did it for you, the controller we both did it. The same time, so now it’s showing me this is right, built-in the guide, it’s showing me what’s on all these various services, including the NFL, via of an NFL partnership, and what’s on your SkyDrive, which is very interesting, so this is my SkyDrive, which should are you Load it up. That’S your camera roll. If you’re Cloud Strife Xbox go to Internet Explorer jump right in Internet Explorer, it did a great job.
We have we’ve loaded a great website here called the verge, so just loading up and that’s the only website there. It’S really, there are no other websites, so we loaded up the story from the verge of the background and then I’m holding controller, and I can use this as a mouse and I can just press a and click on the link. So we can go back to our home page here, but the most important thing is even though you’ve watched TV yeah used our electronic programming guide. You’Ve seen what’s on Discovery, Channel you’ve got Internet Explorer.
You’Ve done all of those things we have with your voice. Your game is still running right, so I started playing Forza 5 before any of this happened. I logged out in the middle of a lap, and now I can actually it’s Forza Motorsport 5 yep. So I can say: Xbox go to Forza Motorsport 5 Xbox go to Forza Motorsport, 5 a.m.
and it’s right back on the track. Where you sly, dog, dropped me and I’d literally just switched I’m playing in I’m terrible at this game. This is the worst yeah, but the fact is, the game was still running and you did all these other things and hopped right back into it hold on. I got ta crash this car, so that’s the Xbox dashboard.
As far as I can tell it’s running very smoothly, right now, it’s what’s still you got about 27 days before you launch you to something it’s running super smoothly. You can jump back and forth between games and sort of a shared app windows, 8 ish experience and the home screen really fast and everything is working as far as I can tell just as designed, although there are still some some glitches here and learning how to Use the voice commands you’re saying takes god. I am just terrible this game. We provide to excite some on-screen guides to help people get started with it after half an hour so of using it, people tend to be pretty comfortable with it right.
So that is, I’m gon na keep playing this game. That is the Xbox one dashboard .
