We hope you like the new look of Windows 8, gamers, because that’s what you’re in store for if you opt for Microsoft’s upcoming new Xbox One video game console over the PlayStation 4 this holiday season. In its new “Meet Xbox One” video, Microsoft has shown off a number of key Xbox One gameplay and navigation features for the first time. We now finally get an official look at exactly what navigating the Xbox One’s tile-based dashboard screen will be like, and the video also shows off gameplay, apps, browsing, Kinect features and more. The experience as a whole looks very smooth and incredibly immersive, and we even see how quickly and seamlessly users can bounce around between games, apps, activity feeds and more. Microsoft’s new Xbox One demo video is embedded below.
