Xbox One finally in Poland. What can Microsoft’s new console? – Dziennik.pl

Although Xbox One appeared on store shelves in the past year, the official Polish premiere took a long time to wait. Finally, however, concern has given the green light and consoles hit the stores. How to verify a new gadget? When it comes to design, the Microsoft finished with rounded corners. Now the console is in the shape of a cuboid. As in the previous model, there is no pull-out tray on the album – inserting it in the slot of the drive (this time the console has a BluRay drive). On the side we find an additional USB port – to connect more easily stick. On the back is the input and HDMI output – so that the console can connect a set top box. is also a link controller Kinect, but my version of the console was not equipped with this sensor.

The changes also affected the pads – go lighter rods, also coated with a special anti-slip them mate. Stitching Pad is more convenient to use and works accurately. For this also improved both releases – go carefully. Pad is lighter and consumes less power than its predecessor with X360.

“Dashboard” console like the metro interface of Windows 8.1 – large tiles, access to the app store. All this, to users of Windows Phone and Windows 8 felt like home. Unfortunately, in contrast to Windows, we can not put yourself tiling applications where we want. In theory, a great opportunity for the console to be store programs. There’s only one problem – the Polish version for now is very poor – we find it only a special appkę, which will play movies from PC with Windows 8.1 – it does not work with older versions but operating systems. Indeed, this is not the only problem Polish Xbox One – on the American market it can be a real media center, with us, unfortunately, we can forget about access to Hulu or Netflix.

Problems arise also when playing movies. It was not until the October update Microsoft will make available DLNA system, as well as the ability to play MKV format. Still, there will be no question of reading files with subtitles. This update will also use the smartphone with the program SmartGlass as a remote control cable.

Xbox Testing One can not be too mention one thing – it has less components than PS4. Therefore, many games will not start in FullHD – “Dragon Age Inquisition” is to act in 900p. Developers complain that, both the processor and the graphics card does not ensure smooth game play in 1920×1080. It should also be noted that in the case of Xbox One must pay a subscription for the game with other players – is required subscription service Xbox Live Gold.

How’s he doing in games? console I got “Ryse: Son of Rome,” and the latest installment of racing “Forza”. “Son of Rome” is a Microsoft answer to the ‘God of War’ – takes on the Roman legionnaire, who in the last years of the reign of Nero wants to avenge the death of his father. Plays a typical slaughterhouse, which consists of exterminating hordes of barbarians. Fans of the history of ancient Rome, however, should stay away from her, because that’s what writers do with the realities of his time calling for vengeance – even Boudica attacker Rome on elephants fighting. Comparing, however, the PC version of the game for the console version can be clearly seen, as very “next genes” stand out from the strengths of computers. This is not meant to be …

As summed Xbox One? console has worse performance of the PS4, not to mention a powerful gaming PC, so many games look will be a little worse. For this lacks many elements of the American market – even streaming services (However, this is not Microsoft’s fault and the Polish market), the range of applications is poor. Yet with every amendment Mircorosft adds new features, relatively soon, so consoles will be much more developed. In fact, everything depends on what we want to play. If we are geeks and Forzy Halo is the Xbox is the only solution. If we want to play games available on all platforms, is buying the PS4, or strong PC (although a much greater expense than 1700 gold on the console) would be a better idea.
