"How come MS has a history of supporting their consoles hard for 4 years to sucker in new players, only to drop support leaving you high and dry, yet you still trail behind them unquestionably like a duck trailing behind its mother?"
That's exactly what I've been pondering for so long.
I can understand pretty much every other type of fanboy, be it Sony, Nintendo, Sports, cars, but I don't understand MS fanboys after the way MS treat them...
"What do you think the 360 users are going to do when they can no longer buy games for the 360?"
Buy a PS4?
I'm sorry I couldn't resist :)
EDIT: Doh, Tigrex beat me to it.

Of course there is going to be a surge in sales, but those teir 2 countries are MS's weakest markets where the PS3 dominated last gen. There's also the option of importing for people in those countries that r...
It's really quite amazing how well the PS4 is selling.
And TLOU and the Destiny bundle is right around the corner. I feel like the gap is only going to not just increase, but increase in speed.
I know there's teir 2 countries for xbox, but those terrirorries are very small markets for the console and some retailers have already imported it as well.
I'm not sure if exclusives like sunset and MCC are enough to even win a single mont...
But how many of those games are cross platform or not graphically hungry games?
And games are only going to get more complex.
How many times axios? How many times are you going to mention that the PS4 is in more countries for it to be factually countered every single time?
Do you just not read all your replies?
MS have purposefully launched in their strongest markets... You know what, I'm not going to waste my time. I'll just wait for September to come around where the xbone will get a good initial boost in sales, but no where near the amount to close the 4-5 million lead th...
I'm primarily a console gamer, but this just tells me who absolutely sick PC gamers are about developers not taking advantage of the PC hardware in their design.
This doesn't just come down to res and frame rate, it's about the entire scope of the game.
I hope PC gamers get the gem of the decade when this releases :)
Do they not want sales or something?
Who says a thing like that?
Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.
That's not a good sign at all.
Sony definitely were arrogant, but I think the big difference is that MS's motivations behind their DRM were pure greed. Also the console wide DRM that took away our basic consumer rights, imo, is far far worse than sony pushing their own complicated architecture.
Also back in the PS2 generation and because Sony were in a position to, we basically got a golden age renaissance of gaming. Where as MS basically dropped exclusive support for the 360 half way through the gener...
Don't know why you're getting disagrees.
Look what happened when MS thought they were on top and thought they could dictate to gamers what direction they wanted to go it. We got the draconian DRM and a less powerful console that was centered around tv.
I can't see why anyone, even an ms fanboy, would want ms on top.
Common Beth, give the people what they want.
Nothing to see here people, just an obvious troll. Or just an angry MS fan that's incredibly agitated that Sony is killing it in sales and performance (I'd also argue games as well, but that's subjective) and is taking out his frustration on these forums.
Simply disagree and move on.
I haven't bought a single piece of DLC ever, unless you count the age of empires expansion.
I'm not saying I'm the pinnacle of morality, but if more people were like me and actually had a little bit of self control when it came to their money and DLC then maybe we'd be getting proper, full copies of our games instead of stripped ones we get these days.
I concur.
I keep hearing this Live is better for multiplayer performance rhetoric, but I'm yet to see any kind of tangle evidence to back this up.
From my own anecdotal experiences both services are virtually identical are far as performance goes.
But If someone brought to me some actual evidence I'd be very open to changing my opinion.
One of my favorite fanboy tropes... Saying people turn around and praise vgcharts as soon as the numbers as in their favor, when in actual fact they keep bashing on vhcharts (and rightfully so) REGARDLESS of the the numbers.
That's what confuses me a little as well. The cat is well and truly out of the bag. Everyone, including ms fanboys, knows vgcharts makes the xbox numbers look better then they really are.
It's not like anyone believes them at all. And even if they did, they just get proven wrong in a months time.
I really have no idea why vgcharts continue to fudge the numbers. It's the definition of a waste of time.
Good to hear MS are committed to the xbox platform.
Don't forget all those games from Japanese developers that we haven't heard much about :)
Now there is a comment I never get tired of /s. The PS4 is a lot more powerful than the Xbox One. The sooner you realize that and just enjoy the games the happier you will be.
We all know the specs of each console. I don't know why people like you have to continually use words like "marginally" or "slightly" just to make yourselves feel less insecure about your console of choice. If you're so concerned with graphics then you should have gotten a PS...
