With the Xbox One officially unveiled, the most striking thing about the Microsoft event was that the company didn't introduce it as a gaming console. Rather, Microsoft seems to be intent on taking over the living room with the Xbox One's set-top box capabilities. We believe it would be a good time to take a look at what makes the console run.

The most obvious new thing in the Xbox One is the new architecture. Much like the PlayStation 4, Microsoft has gone with the x86 architecture for the Xbox One. Thanks to this, porting games through and from the PS4 and the PC will be easier than it was before. x86 has also been around for quite some time now, so development for it is also much easier, resulting in higher quality games.
