Forza 5 will be released on November 22, 2013 on the Xbox One. This game is the most anticipated game to be released on next gen this year.

Powerstar Golf will be releasing on the Xbox One at launch and it will be priced $20. Its an arcade golf game so the game will have a fun tone to it. Characters in the game have special abilities that can dictate how you want to go through golf courses. Graphically the game has a cartoon feel that feels somewhat similar to the Playstation game Hot Shot Golf. This game will have Kinect features, but only voice commands. I believe its a missed opportunity to not let you use motion controls for this game. Golf games can be really fun and precise with motion contorls an example of that will be the Tiger Woods series on the Wii using the Wii Motion Plus controller.
The game will also feature an RPG leveling system, and will also be using cloud computing. I am really interested in trying out the cloud competitive features in this game. That can make the game very exciting because not every game will play the same because the power of the cloud.
In conclusion, Powerstar Golf looks like a good Xbox Live Arcade launch game, and should be fun to play with friends. If this game has precise controls and fun power ups, I think this game can be a real hit for Xbox Live Arcade on the Xbox One.

Microsoft has revealed the first wave of Xbox One TV and entertainment apps. Microsoft has shown a great variety of apps that will be available for many countries at launch. If this is just a sample of the TV and entertainment apps the Xbox One will feature. That means I can't wait to see what Microsoft will offer down the line because this is a sign that the Xbox One is going to dominate our living rooms. Lastly, I just hope Microsoft has many app available in many countries because on the Xbox 360 many entertainment apps were missing in many countries around the world.
