"Over 100 Exclusives"

Talk about false advertisement.

Technically it is the best selling console in America. Since going on sale it has been. This is how claims are usually made.

Coming off a little desperate imo. Can't blame them. Good luck to them though.

Oh dear

Pro will crush Xbox fanboys dreams

hahaha

Lol good grief listening to Xbox promotions is worse than listening to politicians. Desperate times I guess

the spin is real with this one

What lol? ps4 is still in the lead by a lot in the US,.

So Xbox one outsold the Ps4 in North, central and South America combined ?

Sad and desperate, just one reason why I go through PC for my Microsoft games.

The exclusives part made me laugh.

God, Microsoft still up to their lying and PR spins

This is good and all but for me it's still not a great selling point and making me want to run out and buy one. The reason for that is and I'm not a technical engineer but how is it that Sony can add an HDR update to the regular PS4 which will tide me over until I decide to buy the Pro, but why can't MS do the same thing for the X1? Did Sony already have it in their system and just added some code and presto?

Cam Newton should be doing commercials for M$. They both love to open their mouth if things go right but man they hate talking when things aren't going their way. They are very desperate indeed.

Didn't Phil Spencer go from interview to interview for the past several YEARS claiming "sales are irrelevant" and "only the Monthly Active Users" mattered?

I don't get how Phil went from being adamant about MAU's to this because of 3 month winning streak in 1 region. It's confusing to me.

This is exactly the reason i will NEVER support MS when it comes to gaming, nothing but damage control and avoiding when losing but they get one little win back to lies, PR and boasting. I always wonder where the xbox fanboys learn to act from now i know,

MS gonna feel really stupid with this ad if Pro wins next month NPD

Will we finally get numbers of throughput sales from Microsoft?

Why do people even care ? I swear some people on here act as if their mothers were mentioned in the ad. Remember "Sega does what Nintendon't" lmao.

This should have been the console out of the gate, it looks awesome.

good to see ms coming out swinging , facts are a great weapon

Really cool ad.

As expected this advertisement has incited the fanboys (on both sides) to react in their typical contemptuous fashion.

I see no problem with MS touting their recent success as long as the sales numbers back up their claim. The "Best-Selling Console in America" byline is accurate at this present time so why are some people so "outraged" at this declaration?

When a newly released film is promoted in the media as "the number one movie in America" do these same individuals become equally upset? No, because they understand that the statement indicates "currently" as opposed to "of all time". It's the same situation we see here yet many people feign ignorance in regard to interpreting the essence of Microsoft's sales boast.

The "Best Selling" quote isn't even featured in the commercial. It is just the title that has been used on the YouTube page. So can everyone just calm down and stop arguing about who's toy is more popular?

Okay, MS, you really need to slow down for a second. So tell me this, when are you going to show the number of Hardware ? Because the world need to know.

Microsoft marketing should be sued over false advertising

Wow. Those are lies. Xbox one s is not the best selling console in America, PS4 is. They could have said "best selling console in September" but best selling console overall? That's pure BS. That is one of the reasons I don't like MS, they say a lot of lies and false advertising.

Shame of you MS.

And Microsoft is also putting in ads: "fastest, most reliable network " WTF?! based off what information?

So all of a sudden sales DO matter. Still no official figures though.

Thank you Microsoft.

Well MS definitely has a lion heart. They simply keep on coming no matter how bad they take a hit. The 1 thing I wish they would do is go back to bringing the games. So many OG Xbox games just sitting in limbo. Smh

This is full of false advertising

This is what happens when you drink your own kool-aid.

"The only console where you can play nearly a thousand games.."
If 876 (according to wiki) is nearly a thousand. Imagine Sony decided to advertise their system as the only console to play nearly 1400 games since they're at 1222. Oh well, ads and their BS....

I saw one of their commercials and they said the only console with hdr.
Isn't that like way incorrect

That's pretty arrogant. XO is still behind in total sales compared to PS4 in North America. When PS4 starts to win NPD again, this ad will make Microsoft look even more absurd.

Can't blame them for doing it. Sony would do the same damn thing. That's why I take what these companies say with a grain of salt. A few months back Xbox said they're not concerned about sales, but player engagement, as soon as their the best selling console, in America, they tell you about it... and that's exactly what they should do. As the marketing/PR guy, you've gotta be able to spin things. If people believe you, then you've done your job! It's not your fault people are believe you, it's science!

edit: i love the disagrees lol

Ahhh Phil Spincer

Ahh MS back at it again, with their BS.

Wheres all the exclusives xbox, ps4 will always be the best selling console worldwide and THE ONLY CONSOLE that has TRUE EXCLUSIVES. These ads they make and put on tv shows easily how desperate microsoft is by boasting about freaking console sales with no exclusive games to show off.

Lol, yeah right.

Tbf i couldnt care, its just an ad, does it remind anyone of the sonys ads though?, with all the diff games kinda being made into one scene??

"the only console where you can play nearly a 1000 games and over 100 exclusives"

LOL

-----
Currently there are only 876 games for the X1 (as of October 19).

30 are exclusive.
109 are console exclusive.

The number for the PS4:
There are currently 1222[a] games on this list. Below is an exclusivity breakdown as of August 19, 2016:

Exclusive = 109
Console exclusive = 355
Timed = 37
Multiplatform = 696

So this ad is a blatant lie! Tho, sure, "nearly a 1000", while Sony can claim "over a 1000", haha

Also the "4k video" was placed oddly between all the game screenshots, technically it's correct but am sure many a person will think it has 4k support for videogames (and no, upscaling from 1080p or lower doesn't count, sorry).

And BTW, the ad never mentions the whole best selling console in America, it's the title that does... And it's also only for the last 3 months, overall since release PS4 still sold more units in America so isn't technically the PS4 still the best selling console in America???

Lol. Everyday I'm reminded that people on this site have no idea how advertising or business in general works. Like should Microsoft have put out an advert saying "Xbox One S - The second best console around" ? bunch of fucking dweebs over here

Looooooooooooooooooooooooooool llllllllllllllllllllllllllll!! ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! !!!! LMFAO......Dat spin!!!!!!! Wait.....I thought sales didnt matter and they stopped publishing sales numbers a long time ago??? So now sales matter for the last three months??? This is some funny shit.

So delusional,.. they are still 200 K behind this year alone,.. Won't even win a year and already spewing bs.

Oh sweet Jesus. Microsoft just can't not be scummy pieces of lying shit. Can they? One of the worst, slimiest companies in the world. Good games. Good hardware. Good online. But the company behind all that is gross. Just fucking gross. On top of that, Sony is just better. I think we can all agree on that.

Best selling would be used as best selling console at present. Why do people always have to spin things on these forums.

For all of the Sony fans, America is no "The United states of America" in Latin America Xbox Rules

Let's all be honest for a second Xbox and PS fans alike. Who didn't see this coming for the false "MS" that has been around the lat 3 years. You seriously could have seen this coming from 3 yrs ago when they started pretending sales and bragging and all that was an "OLD" MS way thing. It didn't take long did it

Last couple of months,lol.

I wonder if Sony will fire back.

Best selling console worldwide, No.1 console in America with sales.

I wonder if they will bite.

The best selling console in America is PS4... lol. MS... I can't deal

I am not a big fan of marketing being news on this site.

Unless they have in the fine print that it was only the best selling for a specific month, its false advertising.

For those disputing the 100 exclusives this is a nice list.

http://gematsu.com/exclusiv...

Typical Microsoft.

No mention of active users? Really?

lol M$ lying and fudging the truth again. Funny how M$ pretends sales are irrelevant until they can fudge them for advertisement.

I hope Sony takes a jab at the ad by releasing their own, but with stats.

"The PS4 was the best selling console in America 31 out of 36 months"

And

"The PS4 was the best selling console worldwide every month for 3 years straight"

At first it makes you go "lol bs" but technically.......technically. ...the "S" since release is the fastest selling console in America. So is it spin considering this is an xbox one "S" ad and not an xbox one as a whole brand ad? Ya kinda lol but technically when referring to the S specifically and only the S it's not.

Too be fair, USA and UK are the most important regions for hardware/game sales, so this is a BIG victory

Blatant lie. PS4 still the best selling console in America.

Why i can see Sony fanboys spam here.
