Have you ever wanted to Le May May whilst you gaem? Have you ever felt a need to stare at your NSFW Gifs whilst you punch Zombies in their No No's? Perhaps you have felt the need to u mad bro's the brohams while watching some TV. Rest Assured you little tricksters, there's now a means to your end and it couldn't be a bigger bane to our existence than we imagined.​

The app goes live today and was first presented by Reddit favorite Major Nelson in a short video demonstrating all the different capabilities of ReddX. You can view pictures from Imgur directly in the app itself (which is more or less half the site these days) and you can pause and rewind animated GIFs, making that the biggest advancement in GIF technology since 1998.
:arrow:Source

As if this weren't already bad enough, the app itself actually has achievements, with Major Nelson himself making various "LE MAY MAY" Poses as the included achievement artwork that is now a part of the Xbox One Achievement infrastructure.
Major MayMay's Ahead

As it's well known here, the temp, and the internet doesnt really have the biggest spot in their heart for the Xbox Brand. Be that as it may, Gaming Sites praise Xbox for taking the leap to reach out its multimedia services to support the various activities of its now heavy internet use fan-base. Some would see this as A step towards innovation, or a leap towards bigger things to come.
And some of us would call it a Major No-No.

This is all great, but when is the system getting full USB mouse and keyboard support? As far as I know you still have to buy a third-party dongle to use those and the dongle only emulates controller inputs. This is hardly an ideal solution, especially for something as "chatty" as Reddit.

I guess the demand for MelsonMay's pics was just too big for them to pass up, and they had to make a choice on what to include. :creep:

That was physically painful.

Yeah...sort of.

Microsoft: guys! We've outdone ourselves. The moment you've all been waiting for on xbox one. Now for something REALLY exclusive... :D
audience: full USB support for keyboard and mouse? :)
Microsoft: internet meme pictures! :D
audience: ...wut?
someone in the audience: thanks to this news, I can now express how I feel about this even better. It's...somewhat like this.
