Many original Xbox games are playable on the new console

The Xbox One X has landed with a splash, touted by reviewers as the most powerful console in the world. But there's a few things you'll want to know before you get started.

What does set-up involve?

As soon as you plug your new Xbox into your TV and connect it to Wi-Fi, you'll need to download a 783MB update. But don't worry - it doesn't take very long.

As with anything new nowadays you have to download an update first.... #XboxOneX pic.twitter.com/N6PiLPaxH9

Can I upgrade without a hard drive?

Yes. If you're upgrading from an older Xbox One console, you can transfer your settings, games and apps to the new console over your Wi-Fi network. But you can prepare for the arrival of your console in advance by transferring all your games to a hard drive, which you can then plug in when you switch it on. This means you can start playing straight away.

Will I need extra space for my games?

The Xbox One X isn't a new generation of console, so its main selling point is how much better your games will look on it when compared to the original Xbox One and the S. Many existing Xbox One X games are being specifically enhanced for the console to 4K - or ultra-HD - levels. This means they'll look incredible, but these versions of games can also take up more than 100GB of space each - meaning you could only fit 10 of them on a regular 1TB Xbox One X console. As well as making it easy to switch to the new console, a 2TB hard drive will at the very least triple your storage space - and you can get them in 4TB and 8TB variations as well. There's been talk of Microsoft using cloud storage to reduce the amount of space games take up, but while we wait for that, an external hard drive is basically a must.

It really does suck that the Xbox one X doesn't feature a 2TB hard drive like the S. I guess it was to save money? 4K patches are huge..

Is it backwards compatible?

Xbox Ones already had backwards compatibility for a selection of Xbox 360 games, but recently a set of original Xbox games were made playable on the console. These include the classic Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Prince of Persia: the Sands of Time. The great news for owners of the old console is that you can use the original discs. See the list of backwards compatible Xbox games here.

Your original Xbox discs will work. Digital licenses will carry over. AND you can system-link play across all three generations.

Can I still use my Kinect?

Yes - but you'll need an adapter. Once you have one of these, you can plug the Kinect into one of the USB ports at the front or back of the console.

Will my old controllers still work?

Yes. Your Xbox One X will come with one controller, but you can use your old controllers on the new console too. Any devices that are compatible with the Xbox One or One S should work with the X too.

The Xbox is a gaming console produced by Microsoft. It was introduced on November 15, 2001, for the very first time. It had a price tag of $299 at the time of release. After the first 3 weeks of the launch, about a million consoles were sold. It was originally going to be called the DirectX-Box because of the use of DirectX on the console when it was first designed. Xbox was designed with AMD as the process manufacturer but just 2 days before the reveal, it switched to Intel. The sensor of an Xbox's Kinect can measure the light in the 10 billionth of a second.
Fun Facts: -

Stallion83 has the highest Gamerscore in the world. Currently, he has more than 1,000,000 points. Microsoft gave him a free Xbox live membership for the lifetime as a reward.

The Xbox was not the first strike of Microsoft into console gaming. Dreamcast was the first ever foray.

There are approximately 50 million active users of Xbox Live.

According to Seamus Blackley, the Xbox logo is green because, at the time of designing the logo, designer Horace Luke had only one green marker.

The Xbox One can also be controlled by gestures like a swipe. It is possible because of the new built-in Kinect.

It also has a better, improved version of Skype. It has an original HD video-conferencing mode.

An Xbox controller wears out only after 3 million presses.

Initially, Bungie Studio was not very happy about Halo on Xbox.

Nintendo and Sony were leading the industry of gaming consoles. Both of them rejected Microsoft's offer to join the force.
