It
looks like the next generation video game console war is about to heat
up, with the Microsoft Xbox One announced at E3 2013, bringing along
with it a whole lot more information compared to what we heard not too
long ago when Microsoft presented a glimpse of the next generation
console. Here is the quick skinny of things – the Xbox One will be
arriving in the US later this November, where it will be accompanied by a
$499 price tag which could very well make it a decent holiday season
purchase. This also means you have roughly five more months or so to
save up for an Xbox One if you desperately want to give its launch
titles a go, too.
There is a number of titles that will be
released at launch for the Xbox One, and Microsoft kicked off this
year’s E3 event with the viewing of the highly anticipated Metal Gear
Solid V: The Phantom Pain trailer, featuring a younger Snake in all
sorts of interesting scenarios, including riding on a horse. Revolver
Ocelot does not have his eye patch just yet, meaning he is a whole lot
younger. Other titles at launch which one can expect would be the
surefire sales winner, Halo, as well as Battlefield 4. If you want to
play the role of a Roman general leading a garrison into battle against
the barbarians, then you will be pleased to know that Ryse: Son of Rome
would offer such an opportunity. Perhaps the decline of the Roman Empire
was due to the fact that they could not spell “rise”. I jest!
Apart from the Xbox One, folks who prefer to take the tried and
tested route would be able to enjoy an updated Xbox 360 model, where the
new design has already started to ship today to retailers across the
US, UK, Canada, Ireland and Australia, with other Xbox regions receiving
the revamped model in the coming months, further extending the life
cycle and legacy of the Xbox 360 for a while more. The new Xbox 360 does
seem to be a looker regardless of the angle you view it from, and it
will not see a pricing tier change as the 4GB, 250GB and 4GB Kinect
Bundle will still go for $199.99, $299.99, and $299.99, respectively.
