Xbox One Release Date And Price: Battlefield 4 Includes Head-Tracking? DICE Looks INto Using Kinect Sensor To Allow Gamer Mobility

Battlefield 4 on Xbox One could feature Kinect-powered head-tracking, executive producer Patrick Bach said in a new interview on the Xbox Wire, GameSpot.com reports. 

DICE is "looking into" features that "enhance" controls, including using Kinect for peeking and leaning, as well as further head-tracking - this is in addition to using Kinect for voice commands, GameSpot.com also reports. 

The Sony PS4 is "around 50 percent faster than its rival Xbox One," according to anonymous game developers quoted in a report from the Edge, the International Business Times reports.

The report states that multiple anonymous "high-level game development sources" termed the performance differences between the Xbox One from Microsoft and the PS4 "significant," the International Business Times also reports.

A gamer with beta access to the Xbox One posted a two-minute video of the Xbox One's new dashboard and revealed that it loads games in seconds.

"From the moment he presses the 'A' button to the time that the game actually starts is about four seconds - not bad in the least," the ExtremeTech.com writes.

"As the dashboard sports a large "Insert Disc" icon, it's safe to assume the game is running exclusively from the hard drive. While there is still room for improvement with caching solutions and solid state drives, this is a massive step forward from the sloth-like speed of the Xbox 360."
