Microsoft releases Xbox One countdown and news app for Windows 8

4.4
We have been wondering if Microsoft would launch an app for Windows 8 that would help promote the release of the Xbox One, and now that day has come. The company has quietly added what's being called the "Microsoft Store’s Xbox One Countdown app" in the Windows Store.

As the app's name implies, it features a countdown clock which ticks off the days, hours, minutes and seconds before the official launch of the Xbox One on Nov. 22. It also offers news, features and videos from the company's Xbox Wire website as well as an option to find the nearest Microsoft Store retail location

World_Star Don`t have enough money to get this at realese :(


Just like when the PS3 was released, it only took a couple months before they brought the price down from around $500 back to a reasonable $350.

Give it two months or around Christmas time and it will be affordable.


christmas is always the best time to buy for me because the console gets to the point where alot of people own it and the christmas sales always cut the price tag
