Microsoft

Today in Germany, Microsoft had a lot to say about its all-in-one entertainment (not so much just gaming) console, the Xbox One, whereby the company announced a number of upcoming features for the platform, including software updates and patches, exclusive games and perhaps most importantly, three new bundles, each with its unique set of offerings. The bundles include a FIFA 15 one, another with Sunset Overdrive accompanied by a nice surprise, and finally, a Call of Duty version featuring a larger hard drive.

We've reached the Gamerscom stage of the bustling list of exhibitions and conferences in the gaming calendar, and Microsoft has taken the opportunity of the occasion to outline a particularly exciting update for Xbox One owners. Pretty soon, early adopters of the new-ish console will be able to stream TV directly to their smartphone or tablet, adding yet another feature to the already expansive list of entertainment-specific perks.

Microsoft has added a Digital TV Tuner to the Xbox One's repertoire of accessories, with the add-on set to launch in October. As we know, consoles today are more than just mere gaming machines - a point that the Xbox maker made rather too keenly for some gamers at the One's announcement last year - and below, you can find all of the relevant details on the Digital TV Tuner component including specification, price and availability.

The Xbox 360 may have arrived in white, well, off-white originally, with Microsoft adding a darker model at a later date, but this time around, the console sports a shiny, jet-black finish. Obviously, some prospective Xbox One owners were hoping for an alternative to the rather understated aesthetic of the software maker's latest entertainment machine, and this fall, the white color option will arrive as a part of the Sunset Overdrive bundle in October.
