    Next E3 = Next Gen Xbox?

    Why would Microsoft announce a blockbuster game such as Halo 4 for the Xbox 360 then turn around and announce a brand new console. Heres what I think.

    E3 2013: Microsoft announces a brand new project which allows the Xbox 360 to expand even more.

    Holiday 2014: The new project is released.

    Where's the Office, Calendar and Calculator apps?

    Expand the Apps to other uses than just TV and Music, it'd be a great addition to Xbox 360.

    Not worth the trouble you might as well either buy a USB drive upto 32 gigs or buy an official xbox hd

    A USB hd can only use 32 gigs for xbox storage

    Expanding the storage on the new Xbox

    After looking at this, it seems that back- compat games that have been optimised for Series consoles, work fine on external drives.

    Games I have tried are:

    Overwatch

    Minecraft Dungeons

    Ori and the Will of the Wisps

    But any game that is Gen9 only (Scarlet) shows a warning when moving to an external drive:

    “One or more of your selections needs faster storage. You can move it, but it won’t be playable.”

    The game I tried was Control Ultimate Edition. So it seems future Series only games will need to be on the internal drive to play, but can be archived on an external drive. So still worth getting one I think.

    Expanding the storage on the new Xbox

    I’m positive. I have a Series X and Overwatch has just been optimised for Series consoles. This is installed on my external drive and loads and runs just fine. It just doesn’t take advantage of the Xbox Velocity Architecture.
    How odd. If it works, then it works, must be an exception to the rule though as other Series titles games don't work off externals.
