Xbox One cycle more than 10 years, says Harrison

4.6
Xbox boss Phil Harrison has confirmed that Xbox One’s cycle will last more than a decade, speaking in the first session at this year’s Eurogamer Expo today.

Harrison confirmed Xbox One is on a “more than ten-year journey.” The console releases on November 22.

After dropping new Kinect details, the Microsoft exec also showed off Xbox One’s Upload Studio, which allows users to record, trim, record additional footage and voice-over for clips using Kinect, and upload and share with whoever they wish. If you see a game you like the look of on someone else’s upload, you can easily pop over to the appropriate game-page and get buying.

“We think this is a powerful virality tool,” said Harrison. Users will be able to apply to become “anchor tenants” of the Xbox One upload channel.

ID@Xbox, Xbox One’s indie development programme, was also featured in the talk.

Harrison reiterated that Xbox One will launch with 23 games, 11 of which are billion-dollar franchises.

Harrison’s presentation is the first in a series of live sessions at Eurogamer Expo this week.

Gotta_Have_It I think it will last a lot longer than 10 years, as I've had my 360 for about 5 and its still fine.


360 has been around for 11 or 12 I think so. Its a good gaming console unlike "1"

Pashtun The Xbox One looks like a huge fat BRICK. Not to mention it comes with a power BRICK. Looks like you get two BRICKS for $500.00. Such a good deal.


Yes because putting the power brick inside the console with 2 little fans is the way to go.

And the ps4 looks like a huge eraser. Lol please kid how old are you? Better deal than ps4. LIVE will always be better than PSN. Ps4 is good for offline not online (which most people have)



well according to your logic, thats better then 1 brick for $400. double the amount of bricks for only a fraction more

Cost I have had my xbox for about 7 years and today it's still running like a beauty, so I'm hoping for the xbox one to last more than 10 years.


I've only had my xbox for 2 years and it got the red ring of death, I'm not as lucky as you haha.


it also depends on conditions you play in the motherboard etc.

Mentalist I hope this is true, it will add more value to the console and make more people buy it, I doubt it'll last 10 years though.


If you take care of the console it will last. Mine will be in excellent condition
