Xbox One Will Offer Couch-Based Reddit Browsing

ReddX will offer streamlined reddit support for Xbox One owners who want to browse their favorite subreddit in-between games of Titanfall and Peggle 2. The news was detailed on Microsoft's Xbox News Wire where the company boasted that this app is one of many entertainment "experiences" coming to Xbox One. Starting tomorrow, you can combine your reddit experience with the biggest screen in your home: thanks to Xbox One, while you game, you can also browse the first-ever reddit app for the TV. ReddX on Xbox One can be Snapped to the side of your TV while you're gaming or using another app to help you monitor and join in threads on the site while you're doing anything else. Since I don't have the Kinect camera plugged into my Xbox One console, I wonder how intuitive browsing reddit would be when navigated without voice-commands. It seems like mobile and tablet apps would offer a better experience though you can't argue with Microsoft's ability to make Snap more enticing all the time. That's the one feature Xbox One seems to hold over PlayStation 4 and the monthly updates have helped the company to focus on adding usability.
