Turtle Beach has confirmed that the current-gen headsets will work with Xbox One. They will be releasing an adapter that is compatible with XB1's new audio technology.

MOAR cloud abilities.

For a tangible, non-game example, we were shown some NASA data, rendering our galaxy. The Xbox One console can generate, locally, 40,000 asteroid positions. With the cloud enabled, the extra computing performed over the internet can generate 330,000 asteroids on your screen. Not the most thrilling example, I grant you, but the number crunching gives you an idea of the extra processing power.

Yeah, but the PS3 was helping to cure cancer...

The more I read about the cloud, the more amazing it sounds. As amazing as dedicated servers are, it is so much more than that.

They've said nothing with the cloud will change with their u-turn last week...let's hope that holds true.

The cloud has been, currently is and will be the future of basically all electronics. As long as MS utilizes it like they are promising to do it will be pretty awesome.

Don't forget about those 4D GRAPHICS

The main cloud data center will be in Des Moines, Iowa and will cost 700 million. M$.

"Well if people want free headsets, we have a console for that.. it's called the 360"

MS has been touting how great the kinect is at recognizing voice vs tv/game sounds. We'll see how it works out. It'd be great if there was no need for a headset at all.

The problem I see is the other person's voice coming through the speakers. I absolutely hate it when both game and voice sounds are coming through my speakers at the same time. It just drowns out the game sound.

Whenever I eventually pick this thing up, I wont be using Kinect for in-game chat.

I have the game sounds play through my turtle beach headset. I can't imagine it'll be much different, if any at all.

It's very different. In the headsets (Astro, Turtle Beach, Tritton, etc.) the game and voice sounds don't come through the same way, so the voice doesn't drown the game sounds. But when you aren't wearing a headset and you'r playing a MP game, whenever someone speaks it completely drowns out the game sounds.

I can barely hear you marble mouth kids through the headset with the speakers turned down...no way I can hear you through the speakers combined with game sound.
