Microsoft: Cloud turns any Xbox One in the world into your Xbox

4.7
Most of the information in this promotional Xbox One video is common knowledge, but a few interesting tidbits can still be gleaned. Albert Penello, lead planner for Xbox, reveals that using your profile on another Xbox One not only gives you access to your purchases, but also your own customized home screen and your game saves. "Basically, any Xbox One, anywhere in the world, is your Xbox," Penello says.

In terms of SmartGlass, Penello says the big appeal for Microsoft is discovery – being able to find content on the go, highlight it on a SmartGlass device, then come home and find it right there on Xbox One. "You can browse the entire catalog of games and entertainment on Xbox One on SmartGlass," Penello adds, and "you can navigate the dash; you can navigate your Blu-ray movies."

Ryse: Son of Rome and Dead Rising 3 are also specifically called out for their SmartGlass functionality. Ryse lets players customize their characters, set up multiplayer matches and comb through a bunch of other content while away from the console, while Dead Rising 3's integration is more literal – your real-life phone is treated as a phone, and Dead Rising 3 will dispatch mission calls with their own storylines and characters through SmartGlass.

The xbox one looks great! I'm definitely going to be using cloud a lot.

CynocleptPosted:

I don't really care about cloud to be honest, I just care about playing in general

NDSUPosted:

All I want is to play with people. I don't care about the Cloud ! lol

Ooo, that's pretty cool. It works like the Razor Hardware cloud. :)

CokesPosted:

Pretty neat feature. But I won't be using it along with a lot of other people.

That's why you put multiple emails,questions,phone numbers, and a controller password input
Not really, if anything things will be more secure....


Huge difference between 'the future' and 'furthering marketing opportunities'

The cloud is far from being the future as much as being a conduit for targeted advertising. No thanks. If forced, PS4 is definitely the future for a lot of people here.


The cloud is the future. There is no denying it at all.
It enables you to save more than what the physical hard drive can use.

Wait, what?

Used on everything from PC's, Game consoles, iPhones, Androids, etc.


So what.. I don't want to use a frigging phone I want a games console! moot point.

AwesomeSauce69 I don't trust cloud. Would rather have everything stored on the console.


Same here, they better make this cloud nonsense optional, if it's mandatory. I won't be buying it and PS4 is starting to look more tempting.
The cloud is the future. Not much can go wrong with 300,000 of the best servers in the world...


Can a Mod please replace the quote in my reply below with this quote, and also delete this message. thanks
