WELCOME
Welcome to our special look at the
Xbox One S. Yes a new Xbox One
with the S on it sees a smaller, more
modern looking console with more
power on the graphics front, HDR
gaming and of course that magical
4K video. The unit also comes
with a new controller that supports
Bluetooth and a textured grip so long
sessions are easier on the hands.
Gone are the days of “my consoles’
better then yours!” … no, today
gamers are more like to own more
then one gaming system, even if
it’s a computer or mobile device.
Gamers are simply that - gamers.
It’s not just about the hardware, but
the enjoyment of being immersed
in a game. But a good system can
greatly enhance your enjoyment of
gaming and the Xbox One S has
a bunch a great exclusives that
you will enjoy, including games like
Forza Horizon 3, reviewed as the
most beautiful game on Xbox by The
Guardian, with its high resolution
graphics, HDR and speed, it’s an
amazing experience. Gears of War 4
has gotten great reviews and if you’re
on Metacritic you’ll see it’s scored
extremely highly by sits like IGN. Of
course there’s Halo 5: Guardians
which upscales beautifully to 4K.
We hope you enjoy our guide to the
Xbox One S, and with Christmas
just around the corner we can’t think
of a better family gift that will keep
the whole family having fun over the
summer holidays!
