A Microsoft representative has told Polygon that the Xbox One will let users play games while they're being installed onto the console.
The company said that gamers can play disc-based games while they're being installed to the system's hard drive, with all disc-based titles requiring an install.
Microsoft has yet to confirm whether this applies to titles downloaded from Xbox Live.

The Xbox One is due for release this November for $500.
