The Xbox One continues to grow

The Xbox One has added a ton of features since launch. While it was once a barren piece of hardware, it can now do quite a bit of stuff, including a heap of multimedia playback options.

The February update has just been detailed, and my favorite part is the “Game Hubs” concept, which is a lot like the 360’s beacons. Basically it’s a central area where you may see who is playing a certain game on your friend’s list, as well as leaderboards, clips, broadcasts, and top players. For ongoing games likeDestinyit’s a pretty badass feature.
