"You can finish after that fight, that thing you just did is within the last five minutes, you can go into that last five minutes and scrub it for the best stuff - I want that four seconds and this ten seconds and this 30 seconds and then I want that ultra combo." "So now let's say you're not playing online and you do the best combo or you have the best fight ever," Lobb continued. You can say 'Xbox, record that', it'll grab the last 30 seconds and save it for you to play with later." Scenario one: I'm playing online and I just did the best thing ever. We have a ring buffer game DVR basically, so the last five minutes of any game you're playing is always being stored locally on your hard drive," Ken Lobb, creative director at Microsoft said tp CVG. "So the idea is that you're always recording. The console will be able to record videos for five minutes and allow gamers to select and put together clips.
