Cortana is available on Xbox One, if you know the right tricks
Microsoft won't officially bring its Cortana voice assistant to the Xbox One until 2016, and it's not even supposed to be available if you're using the console's interface preview. However, that isn't stopping you from trying it ahead of schedule. Gamers have discoveredthat you can access Cortana in the latest preview simply by visiting the settings menu, going up and mashing the A button multiple times. It doesn't offer the full range of Xbox commands just yet, but you can access any information that's already available in Cortana on other platforms, like your calendar. Think of this as a cheat code for the operating system -- you're getting a peek at something that most preview users won't see for weeks.

Hail to the curious Guy that discovered that.
Not a big deal but it remind me so much good memories from the good ol'times of the cheat codes : )
I almost hope that this trick is not a bug and was put it there on purpose.
Would mean there are some gamers in microsoft in the end

Too bad Cortana doesn't have the equivalent of Google Now on Tap.
