The day has finally come. After a long wait, the Xbox One has finally hit store shelves in the west. Thousands of gamers lined up outside local stores across the nation, and now they are finally home playing their long awaited console. Although not all of the Xbox One's features are available at launch, don't let that stop you! If you are a fan of Microsoft, or just a big gamer in general, this is a console you'll want to check out. From exclusives such as Dead Rising 3, to multiplatform games like Assassin's Creed IV, the Xbox One has it all.
Even if you are not a gamer, the Xbox One also acts as a media center. From watching live TV shows, to streaming movies, the Xbox One is the ultimate media experience for your living room. Thanks to its ability to connect to other devices, it has a wide verity of features that are not what you would call "standard." Yes, this includes connectivity to the PlayStation 4 as well. Despite being "rivals," the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 can work side by side (which Microsoft confirmed prelaunch); so don't let owning one console stop you from getting the other. When it comes down to it, you could get your favorite games on the PlayStation 4, get the Xbox One exclusives, and then use the Xbox One as a general media center. You get the best of both worlds, working side by side; as it should be.
So, with that being said, I hope you all have fun with your new console!
