Given the surprising bugs, issues, and problems that PS4 owners seem to be experiencing with their PS4, Microsoft has released a very timely new service for the Xbox One.

Recently announced on their official website, there's now an available extension of the Xbox One's warranty to three-years, which you can get for £59.99

Videogamer found this Microsoft Complete service, which covers the Xbox One console, the Kinect 2.0, and two of the Xbox One controllers that you own. This pads your safety net for your Xbox One for two more years, as the standard warranty for out-of-the-box Xbox One consoles is just one year.

According to the report, you need to purchase Microsoft Complete 45 days after you bought the Xbox One for it to be covered.

Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare Gets a Release Date

Brain-hungry zombies and fighting plants will be coming to your Xbox One and Xbox 360 systems on Feb. 21, 2014. Electronic Arts has announced the release date of the much-awaited Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare, and has added a few more details about the game.

For instance, it mixes action aside from just plants shooting down zombies, as you will be participating in a third-person multiplayer game. What's more, you can either be a zombie or a plant from the franchise.

"Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare give the series' fans and shooter players a fun, new experience that they'll both enjoy as they blast, chomp and laugh their way through co-op and head-to-head online action," said Brian Lindley, producer of the game.

According to the official website, Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare will make use of the advanced Frostbite 3 engine and give you 10 maps and 3 modes which feature two 12 against 12 multiplayer setups and a four-player co-op mode.

Xbox One players have two extras to enjoy, which are the local co-op split screen and Boss Mode. The former brings back couch fights as you battle hordes upon hordes of zombies in a survival mode, while the boss Mode makes use of the Kinect or SmartGlass to give your team members the support they need-much like the function of Battlefield 4's Commander App.

Teardown: Xbox One's Common and Replaceable Parts

One of the biggest gripes for both the Xbox One and PS4 consoles is that it lacks the ability to swap hard drives to give more storage space for games.

Xbox One countdown to launch: More rumours and expectations, starting with bangin' launch plans and a rumour about the Halo 5 franchise on Microsoft's next-gen.

Granted, with the Xbox One, there's the supposed solution of cloud-based storage system, and one that's supposedly smart enough to manage it for you. However, Engadget has pried open the Xbox One and dove deep into the wires and connections to find an interesting tidbit of information.

You can actually replace the hard drive easily and with common parts. Apparently, the Xbox One has a standard 500 GB HDD, which is the SATA II 2.5-inch. So if you can land one of these hard drives, you can easily push the Xbox One's storage system to better capacities.

However, the report warns that replacing the hard drive can mean that you'll be voiding the warranty and doing some technical tinkering here and there. But if you have the chops to do it, more storage space is at your fingertips.

What's more,the Xbox One has been rated as 8 of 10 in terms of repairability, which is the same rating given to the PS4. That's something to think about if you're thinking of doing some modifications to either of the next-gen consoles.
