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.

-It looks like the player is in control after exiting the boat and remains so until the launch sequence begins.
-There were some items on the desk next to the body that flickered, indicating interactivity.
-The note and puzzle indicate that proxies for keypads are in the game
-Prior to leaving the boat and after the sequence started the player had no control over their character.
-The loss of the weapon was not a result of a mistake the player made but a predetermined outcome.

-The use of loss of control to set up scripted events and predetermined outcomes is potentially worrying. In a similar fashion to the first Bioshock and every Call of Duty since 3 this could mean every kind of trouble. Frat boy dudebros and pretentious pseudo-intellectual critics who want to feel like alike really yuck that up.
-The tooltips are condescending and unnecessary. Hopefully they can be turned off.
-It may be possible to meta-game the puzzles. Hopefully optional coded locks in early game environments will contain extra goodies which the player can use to jump the difficulty/progress curve.
-Related to the previous, one hopes the combination hardest difficulty/hardcore mode live up to their names and the 1999 mode isn't just a pale imitation of System Shock 2 but a full embrace of its unkind, skull-cracking hardness.
