Tuesday was a hell of a day.  Amongst the various conflicting reports about the next generation Xbox.  One thing that's for certain: it certainly offers distinct possibilities for interactive entertainment.  Relive the live commentary with Chris, Nolan and Carlos as we ask important questions and get... answers about Carlos' underwear.

Please note: this was recorded live during the Xbox One presentation and, as such, does not reflect updated news and status of the product.  Keep an eye out in the coming days and weeks for more concrete information.

    From initial reports of those who were at a later press events afer the announce.
    The controller has a more responsive and accurate D-pad but it may not be ergonomically as nicely placed. The analogue sticks have are slightly smaller with a textured grip, have less play and 'dead zone', require 25% less force to move them and are twice as responsive as the 360. The shoulder buttons are larger but still digital. The triggers have varying intricate levels of rumble built into them which is the dynamic impulse talked about. There is a sync button near the top (perhaps with a small IR sensor next to it) the response times for wireless have supposedly improved by some 15-20%.

    I don't know all the battery details yet but there have been some big changes to make the controller flatter at the back with the removable pack flush to the case.

    I see on other sites people complain about all the tv stuff they shown but that could be a huge part in its success. If MS strike deals with all the cable providers around to world to give their customers xbox ones instead of the rubbish cable boxes we get now just think how many homes the system will be in. Profit for the cable companies as they wont have to manufacture their boxes and they will receive some money from MS. MS will reap the profit from all the software sales
