When it comes to video games, the gaming console industry has been making many advancements.
The gaming console industry started booming in the late 20th century. This was a clear indication for the large companies to tap into the industry as well.
Microsoft jumped onto the gaming console bandwagon and released its first console, the Xbox, in the year 2001. Not only could you play games on this console, but you could also make use of the many features that came with the Microsoft software.
The Xbox One was the third version of Xbox to be released and unlike the first one, was very profitable for the company. It has sold millions of units so far and is continuing to do so with Xbox One S making its entry into the market.
Not only can you play games on Xbox One, but you can also ask it to do things such as turning itself on and off, and connecting to the television or WiFi.
The Xbox was the beginning of a new era in gaming as Microsoft also made its entrance into the scene. By the end of the 20th century, many gaming consoles had been released and the world was already well versed with the thrill of video games. It was in the year 1998 that four employees of Microsoft came up with the idea that it was time for the company to make its entry into the gaming console industry and the rest is history!
Xbox One was the third version of Xbox to be released. Xbox One not only allowed people to play games but also had specifications that would enable screen share at the same time. There were many more specifications of the Xbox One which were quite impressive and acted as reasons for people to play digital games on this spectacular model!
Xbox games sure are famous and there's a chance that you might have played some of them, but did you know that this version had many new features that set milestones for other gaming consoles to achieve?
There are a number of features that will compel you to invest in an Xbox One.
