Xbox One will record Achievement-unlock moments, says Xbox rep

Automatic DVR recordings tied to Achievements

The Xbox One will automatically record a clip of gameplay footage when players unlock Achievements.

That's according to an Xbox rep at the EB Expo in Australia, who described the feature to YouTuber ChampChong.

"The DVR will automatically record any Achievements that take place so whenever you unlock a Gamerscore it will automatically record how you did that so you can check it out later," said the rep.

This is apparently in addition to machine constantly recording the past five minutes of gameplay footage, which Microsoft has previously detailed.

Users will be able to review, crop and upload gameplay footage using an app in the Xbox One operating system.

The integration of Twitch into Xbox One will also enable Xbox Live Gold members to broadcast games directly to their Twitch channels, as well as view content from other streamers on Twitch.

PS4 owners will also be able to share gameplay and screenshots using the DualShock 4's 'Share' button. Neil Brown, head of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's R&D group, revealed that PS4 uses a dedicated hardware encoder to continually record the last "several minutes" of gameplay footage, without taking up any processor resources.

Monster-Munch This is good if your doing vids about how to get achievements.


Yeah, I agree with this statement. It totally makes sense.


Same, but the problem everyone is talking about is the space it takes up. We don't know if it is a lot or a little

Ted- Just a waste of cloud space imo. Hopefully this feature can be disabled somehow.


It kind of is, it really doesn't make sense having this feature

Woobie I hope there is a way to turn this on and off.. I feel like that will take up a lot of storage.


I would think that they would provide the option. It would prove problematic to people who will accumulate a library of hundreds of games for the xbox one

If you can't turn it off this might irritate a lot of people

I'm sure this'll be a toggable feature, although it is a really cool feature, it won't mean anything to some players.
