Three years ago it was a difficult moment when we began to watch former Xbox head-honcho Don Mattrick took the stage to unveil the future of Xbox with the Xbox One. Don Mattrick was the figure-head that had set the Xbox 360 on its road to success as it was in a race to the finish line. A race that Sony just couldn't keep up with until recent, but now that has changed under the new face of Xbox with Phil Spencer steering the ship into a close second.

When it comes to backwards compatibility, Phil Spencer, the head of Xbox, is a man devoted to keeping the past alive. The ability to play original #Xbox games on modern consoles is a feature so often requested it's a wonder why it took so long to come about. The central crux of Phil Spencer's explanation? Games are a service, as he told Giant Bomb. This is a model Microsoft has been adapting over the past few years and seems to be putting more and more focus on.

We're living in a pretty connected world in 2017. That you're probably reading this on your cell phone while you're pretending to do things at work is a testament to that. Faster internet speeds and increased device connectivity has given us the opportunity to have near unlimited media consumption at our fingertips.

I really don't do reviews but I figured that I would do one for Late Shift on Xbox One. I had bought this game during Xbox’s Ultimate Game Sale.

There are seven different outcomes and 14 different chapters. Most of the time you are given two choices while there might be times where you are given three choices.

Before I continue this review, I must emphasise that I am a huge fan of Metal Gear but I must review this as a product for the casual gamer and not the hardcore gamer. Ground Zeroes was released about a year before the Phantom Pain and was billed as a prologue to the game.
Grand Theft Auto 4 Review
Rockstar games are getting closer and closer to the ultimate crime simulator as continue to produce Grand Theft Auto for a multitude of platforms. The original was for the PC and PlayStation (one) and despite the 2-D graphics were instant hits due to their mature and violent content.
PS4 vs Xbox One
Throughout history, there have been many vicious battles fought — the Trojan War, the Crusades, and a couple of World Wars. This is not one of those battles, but it's definitely still a hot debate among people.

When it comes to the next generation of consoles, almost out of the gate the Xbox One got the short end of the stick. The PS4 and Wii-U both seemed to get more attention from critics. Hell, no one even owns an Xbox One in Asia. For many gamers, they might feel almost saddled with a console like this.
