The editors didn't like

  • Higher price than competing PS4
  • Partly because Kinect 2.0 is included
  • Potential heavy-handed game trade-in
  • Sales restrictions
  • Requires cloud "check ins" to keep operating
  • Most apps require Xbox Live Gold membership. Between voice and gesture commands – there is a lot to learn. No direct support for your cable's DVR system. Controllers require AA batteries. System heats up in use. You can record gameplay
  • But only as video
  • Party Chat only holds 7 people and sometimes you just can't connect to your friends party chat
  • No alerts for friend requests
  • No built-in network video streaming functionality to play video files elsewhere on your home network
  • Workout video offering in
  • Case is boxy
  • Heavy
  • And about as big as the original Xbox
  • Many launch games don't pack much of a visual punch
  • Controller still uses AA batteries and proprietary headsets
  • Voice commands fail a good 10 to 20 percent of the time
  • System requires incredib
  • Big bodied
  • With no up-front USB ports
  • Installing
  • Patching games is slow
  • Somewhat confusing
  • Ad-filled interface
  • No game broadcasting
  • Hard drive is not upgradable
  • Xbox Live Gold subscription mandatory for many features
  • The Xbox One's dashboard is still confusing at times and the PS4 generally delivers slightly better graphics and performance on multiplatform games so far. Selection of must-have titles is still weak compared to that of previous generation consoles
  • The Xbox One's new interface is still more convoluted than the PS4's. In general
  • The PS4 delivers slightly better installation times
  • Graphics and performance on cross-platform games. The Xbox One also lags behind the PS4 in its selection of indie games
  • Presentation doesn't look or sound like Jeopardy
  • Online multiplayer is a ghost town due to design mistakes
  • Overpriced when compared against other trivia games
  • No social integration
  • Xbox Live Gold is essentially a requirement
  • Bi
  • Bulky desig
  • Lacks TV DVR capability
  • Voice Commands
  • Some Launch Titles
  • Fledgling App Store
  • No backward compatibility or legacy game options. Voice controls and facial recognition aren't available on Kinect-less $399 version. Gesture controls don't work consistently. PS4's DualShock 4 is a better controller
  • Voice input still hitormiss. Does live TV but does not let you control your DVR. No broadcasting gameplay (yet). Rechargeable controller batteries an expensive addon
  • Not standard
  • Clunky TV integration
  • Uninspired design
  • Kinect voice commands are unreliable
  • Lack of App Channel content
  • $100 more than a PS4

  • Some streaming services available on Xbox 360 not yet on Xbox One
  • Can stop playback to say “hi” to a new user that has stepped into the room
  • The most expensive console available
  • Limited selection of exclusive titles worth playing
  • Missing key promised functionality at launch
  • Kinect voice commands still don't work reliably
  • Navigating the console remains sluggish compared to the PS4
  • Still missing features from the Xbox 360 like system-wide game defaults
