Xbox 720 Will Always Be Listening To You

[Mr. Somebody]

Wow so not only will it be watching everything you do, it will be listening to everything you do. O and the internet will always be flowing through its circuits so it can always keep an eye on you. Its so demonic, friends.

Microsoft's new Xbox will include improved Siri-like speech recognition | The Verge

Microsoft will greatly improve its speech recognition technology inside the next Xbox, The Verge has learned. Sources familiar with Microsoft's Xbox plans have revealed that Durango, the codename for the next Xbox, will support wake on voice, natural language controls, and speech-to-text. The improved capabilities mean that Xbox users will be able to walk into a room and simply say "Xbox on" to wake up the new Xbox.

We understand that Microsoft is also investigating scenarios where a Kinect sensor will detect individuals in a room and suggest appropriate multiplayer games after a user queries the Xbox using voice. The support will include natural language detection, similar to Apple's Siri service, that will let users ask things like "what are my friends playing" to receive a friends list. Xbox will also reply back to users with answers to queries, making it an improved search service too. The current Xbox 360 console lacks natural interaction and context, we're told that's a big focus of the new speech recognition in the new Xbox.

Users will also be able to automatically resume video content where it left off simply by asking the new Xbox to play a particular movie. With speech-to-text built-in, it's likely that Microsoft will utilize this support to type out messages using the new Xbox. It's widely expected that Skype will make its Xbox debut on the new console. Microsoft will fully detail its new Xbox at E3 this year, with suggestions from sources that the company may hold a separate event to unveil its new hardware ahead of E3. The new Xbox is expected to be released later this year.

I've owned all 3 last gen systems, and I planned on maybe getting all 3 new ones.

Before the news started to come out, I was definitely leaning to waiting for the next Xbox before getting the PS4. I love my 360 and was kind of disappointed with the PS3.

But with the new info leaking out, I might have to rethink my prioritizing. That article about the PSN and XBox Live had some really good points as well.

Any system that has to stay online, hearing you constantly, etc.. kind of puts me off.

We'll see.

You're a perfect candidate for the mark of the beast. You just dont seem to really care about much of anything. Watch me, listen to me, dont let me play games without an internet connection. All of this is cool to you. Its not.

Did you see that
Man, so the next box will basically work like Siri where I can just be like "Xbox, COD Zombie mode" and with 8gb of RAM that bytch will instantly go to the title screen
As for listening to you, Kinect now has that option
Its for voice improvement, I don't use it. You can turn it off
No big deal. If you wanna be EXTRA paranoid, then just unplug it
Maybe you got too fat this gen since you didn't have to get up to switch DVD's like us xbots? And thats too much work?
Fudge outta hurr

I'm tempted to pocket the cash I was gonna use for next gen and just pimp the fukk out of my PC at this point.

 

[Eastside Get The Money]

So demonically fueled

I hate that the Kinect is on on my shyt at home. I disabled it when I'm not using it. I can't tell you how many times I'm just watching the ESPN app sitting with my laptop and it thinks I'm trying to use the hand gesture controls. So damn annoying.

 

[Tom]

and u can't even turn off ur internet connection to play games without big brother watching you because the games won't work with out the niggy net

 

[The_King_of_Everything]

Just unplug the bytch.

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

Yup

It has its perks, tho...playing games and apps without having to find a controller or remote, pausing and playing netflix without having to lift a finger...I'm mostly impressed by the voice control stuff, less so by the gesturing.

And that shyt is a godsend for NFSMW...you can start races with your voice, change parts mid-race and keep your focus without having to switch to the d-pad, get out of the cop radius and cool your police heat down three times as fast by pulling over and saying "engine off"

I didn't hear about this.

So you can't play a regular one player game with an internet connection?

You have got to be kidding me, whats the purpose?
