Hey guys don't know if any of you own a Xbox one but i don't like it at all
Xbox One Pros:
Extremely fast switching between tasks (TV, movies, skype, etc.)
Kinect seems much improved with 1080p quality and more accurate tracking
ESPN partnership
300,000 servers for Xbox Live, up from 15,000 last time, according to Microsoft this will allow for "living and persistent worlds" (MMOs, anyone?)
Controller seems mostly the same except with improved d-pad
Compatible with Smartglass
Constant low power state
Download games while you play
Capture and editing software (very lightly touched upon during the event)
Kinect voice commands (useful for when you're holding something, such as food)
Triggers have feedback
Xbox controller will supposedly be using WiFi direct
Xbox One Cons:
Used games fees (Lots of conflicting info at the moment; policies not finalized)
Requires a connection to the internet once every 24 hours
Significantly less powerful than PS4
Always on Kinect means no privacy, the Kinect doubles as an infra-red scanner, heat sensor and camera spying on your house, family and viewing habits
No Backwards compatibility
Most likely going to have to pay to play online
Indie developers cannot self-publish their games without a partnership with Microsoft or another third-party associated with Microsoft.
It's confirmed that you will need to connect to the internet at least once every 24 hours; you will be charged for 2nd hand games via MS directly; you won't be able to play (or share) a game you own at a friend's house
I would like to hear from everyone else
