Excellent post if I do say so myself But yeah, it is Ninety-Nine Nights. Saw it in the shops today and was tempted to get it, but I declined. Is it worth getting?

Also, here's the "Xbox" part of the post. Couldn't see anything about the new system update, but there is one.

 

Microsoft has rolled out the latest Xbox One system update, which offers a range of fixes and new features for the company's latest console. If you're part of Microsoft's early access preview program, this update is already applied to your console, and it has been since early May.

The latest Xbox One system update introduces a new sound mixer for snapped apps, chat volume controls for when you're using Kinect, and the option to help Microsoft improve speech recognition on the system. You don't need to check for the update, as it will be automatically applied.

Using the new sound mixer for snapped apps, you can control the volume levels of two apps. You can also use the mixer to control the volume levels of Kinect when you're using it for chat. The new Xbox One update also allows you to opt-in to a speech data collection program to help Microsoft collect voice samples that it will input into its algorithms to help improve speech recognition overall.

Of course, this is completely optional, and Microsoft says it won't use your voice data for purposes other than improving the product. If you do want to participate, go to Settings --- Privacy & Online Safety -- Customizing Privacy and Online Safety -- and then set "Share Voice Data to Allow."

Microsoft has been rolling out new Xbox One system updates on a regular basis, the most recent of which before this was a larger update in April that brought improvements to the system's Friends, Kinect, and GameDVR features.

An update in June will introduce Games With Gold for Xbox One, and there's even a chance that this update will also bring external storage support--a much-requested feature--to the console.

 

The whole "External Hard Drive" thing sounds pretty damn good. Hope it turns out to be an actual thing in the future, there's been plenty of rumblings about it, so maybe at E3?

I think it will lol  Mass Effect is amazing but and very popular but it also hasnt had a reveal trailer yet.  Should give the edge to Sunset Overdrive unless an amazing trailer comes soon.

Speaking of which do you guys think it is a prequel or sequel?  IM personally hoping for a sequel

It's a sequel. Not a direct sequel, but set after the events of the original trilogy

XBOX ONE SKYPE APP CAN NOW BE SNAPPED

 174
Making it more convenient to talk and play.

Microsoft's latest Xbox One update makes it much more convenient to chat while playing a game, thanks to the ability to Snap the console's Skype app.

To download the 53MB update, simply launch the Skype app next time you log into your console.

The Xbox One may update released yesterday, fixing a range of issues. Currently the Skype app is behind the Xbox Live Gold paywall, though this is due to change next month when a host of changes are made to Microsoft's service.

 

Lol, pretty good tbh

Yeah, good point. I saw the whole Skype thing afterwards and it's strange that the article didn't bring it up. Does sound like a nice feature!
