If you haven't see it already, take a trip through the Xbox One reveal video and notice a game title that really didn't belong. The title is "Words With Friends," and yes, you can bet that after seeing it on the "Snap an app" screen, this may mean Xbox will be bringing those fun and addictive mobile games to your brand new Xbox One.
Why would Xbox Live bring mobile games on board along side major titles you ask?
Those games don't belong on a console that has hardware packed to the rim to bring groundbreaking graphical experiences...
Ah, but if you look at the popularity rising today in mobile gaming, the question should be, 'why wouldn't they?'
Xbox, at the core, is all about gaming and they want the whole pie! I for one think it would be quite an experience to have the ability to watch TV and play social driven games that I play every day on my smart phone--on the same screen as my TV show with the new feature of "Snap."
Microsoft has named their new baby Xbox One, and it's because they want this thing to be the one piece of tech to replace all those other gadgets; to use them all in one integrated system. This is a smart move for Xbox and I am excited about it.
Tell me what you think.

Social Games are what's wrong with the gaming industry. Everybody is trying to make these cheap addicting games to appeal to the masses. Now xbox is trying to be this great do it all device. While their focus should be on providing us with great AAA exclusives. I love how they spent 15 minutes of their event to talk about COD which isn't even an exclusive. Everyone family I know has multiple smart phones, multiple laptops, and multiple tablets. There are so many devices that you can already play social games on. But there isn't many devices to bring you quality high def immersive content. Which I think Xbox should have focused on. Why do I need a Xbox one if I have a 360, two laptops, 3 smartphones, and a chrome book. Instead of buying more of what I already have access to, I'm going to get a console that is primarily for gaming.
