The Xbox One is a video game console from Microsoft Studios. The successor to the Xbox 360, it is an eighth generation console along with Wii U and PlayStation 4. In addition to competiting as a games console, Microsoft has classified the device as an "all-in-one entertainment system", making it a competitor to other home media devices such as the Apple TV and the Google TV platforms.
Placing an emphasis on entertainment and integration with the Kinect, it has the ability to use an existing set-top box to watch live television programming, a built-in Skype client, and second screen support. It also utilises the cloud to bring benefits to both games and entertainment.
