Keep in mind I am someone that has a Day One Xbox One preordered and fully paid with 4 launch games also preordered and fully paid ...
With that said, I am struggling to see the point of anything that was mentioned in the video.
1. Cloud power so you can use any Xbox One as your Xbox One
I can already do this with the 360 ... just take my light and very portable hdd out and slide it into a different Xbox and that Xbox is, for all intents and purposes, the same as my home Xbox 360.
2. Kinect can reconize players so you don't have to worry about who has which controller.
Was this ever a problem? Not that I play locally with friends anymore (who has the time, seriously?), but I don't ever remember having issues remember who had which controller. If you are smart, you probably have a different color/style for each of your controllers so it is easy to remember. I did this with Wii remotes so each player has a different color ... no need for this feature there.
3. Smartlass and Ryse
Umm ... so it is basically like Battlelog on Battlefield and a bunch of other games that record your stats online. Not exactly a new feature, or a useful one I must say.
4. DeadRising 3 use your cell phone as an in game cell phone.
This is actually kind of cool ... gimicky for sure, but cool. Probably won't use it much, but I will try it at least.
Not a great video imo. Don't see this winning people over or contributing to any "wow" factor that Xbox One may have. Can't wait for the system, but this stuff seems like a waste of time, and I will probaly never use it. If anything, I am worried about navigating the cloud bs when I go to visit my friends since before you could just slide in the hdd and you were good to go ... now I have to worry about my password being on their system and etc.
