LATEST FEATURES Being A Console Is Actually Xbox One's Worst Asset
Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

Everything I Learned About Call of Duty: Ghosts Last Week
I wasn't allowed to talk about the new Infinity Ward game last week when I met with Activision, and I don't have much to say now that Xbox One spilled the beans.

Before Microsoft and Sony do something regarding their future in the video game business, I wanted to write, and I've wanted it for a long time now, but other things kept getting in my way, and fearing that tomorrow might be too late, today will have to do.  ...

DAILY MANIFESTO

LIVE Update Preview Open

Posted on Wednesday, September 22 @ 21:51:26 Eastern by
Major Nelson... Larry Hyrb... The Xbox Guy has opened the flood gates. Any ol' Live member can apply to be in the preview program experiencing all the hot new features coming to your Xbox 360 this fall.



The Microsoft Kevin Butler (not as good as the real thing) posted on his blog that the preview program would be opening up to thousands more Live subscribers, whether they be gold or silver. Those of you accepted into the beta program will get to experience the ESPN dashboard channel, enhanced Netflix capabilities (search function, yay!), and updates to the dashboard, Zune video, and family settings.

I've signed up. You should sign up. Once we both get in, we'll talk. We'll talk through that new enhanced voice chat codec. I might actually understand what the hell you're saying to me.

You can check out the blog post at the link above, or skip right ahead to the sign up process by clicking right... here.

    What a coincidence. I found an old ethernet cable just long enough to attach to my 360 if I move a bunch of crap and put it on the other side of the TV. Will sign up.

    ...Let's definitely hope not...

    Sadly we won't be able to chat with non-users of the preview :^(
    Ha! We get it earlier though. In fact I just applied and was accepted!

    Let us know how it is Rochester. I think I'm going to wait because not being able to chat with non-users would probably annoy me.

    @BelgianROFLs: I signed up for it, got accepted and now I have to wait week or so. I could live without voice chat for the time being, until they released it to all users sometime this fall. I like previewing stuff and giving feedback about it.
