Xbox 360 and PS3 disc changer shown at E3, next-gen version planned

TechSpot: While most of the attention at this year's E3 was focused on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, there were plenty of other companies hanging around the show floor showing off their goods. One such company is Exeo Entertainment, which displayed a product called the Extreme Gamer XG 10 that's designed to let gamers load up to ten Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 discs at a time, so there is no need to get up and switch between them

Would come in very handy for the 360

Mikey322304729d ago

I dont see how this is practical for the new Xbox One because you no longer need the disc in the console to play a game.

I WISH the PS4 had that feature :/ But i understand that's part of the 24 hour check-in and we dont want that.

TheBrit4729d ago (Edited 4729d ago )

current gen its fine, next gen xbox one not so much unless it works for movies also

kneon4729d ago

It is possible to have game installs and not require the disk to play and still not have to phone home every 24hrs. But you would have to give up some of the other features that the XB1 offers.

mediate-this4728d ago

pretty sure it is for current gen consoles

OC_MurphysLaw4729d ago

handy for the 360 and PS3 for sure...not really needed for the Xbox One....and I doubt for the PS4. Does anyone know if PS4 disc games will have optional full install or will that be up to dev still?

faysal4729d ago

it has been fixed.. it was their sever not the game it self.. UPDATE THE ARTICLE.

Hellsvacancy4729d ago

"UPDATE THE ARTICLE" what are you on about buddy?

King_Slayer4729d ago (Edited 4729d ago )

He's on the wrong article, obviously... What faysal is commenting about, at least what I think he's commenting about, has to do with the save glitch on The Last of Us.

sashimi4729d ago

Coming from homer that really means something lol

denawayne4729d ago

This thing is about 20 years too late. I've been asking for this for a while. Not going to need it now. I'm getting the Xbox One which switches games seamlessly (unlike this thing which needs to load up each disc when accessed). As for PS4, well.....

fsfsxii4729d ago

Definitely justifies the DRM and used games blocking & and the extra 100$

ShAkKa4728d ago

Or you can just buy the game digitally which will be quite a common option for next gen systems.

brianunfried4729d ago

Might be good to have to save wear on your internal drive.

dantesparda4728d ago

Very hard for half of these lazy fvcks!

threefootwang4729d ago

Honestly people, how hard is it to get up and change a disc? Its like Kinect 2.0, pushing buttons with your remote/controller is clearly too difficult for some people, so now all you have to so is say the words out loud!

lazy and stupidity seem to be sharing the same lines.

TheTimeDoctor4728d ago

some people have actual home theater setups where everything is tucked nicely away. All my equipment is a floor below. I wish it had more than just 10 disks.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle27d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7727d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde34d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy34d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga35d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit35d ago (Edited 35d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199235d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga34d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac34d ago (Edited 34d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman34d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger35d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box35d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion34d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7235d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7535d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit35d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14935d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7735d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
