Oh wow Valhura a total of 6 whole games will be true 4k?! Wow astonishing! Guess everyone has to go out for that whopping selection! Got to go over those download limits with those 100 gb downloads!
It took 4 years to sell 30 million after multiple price cuts. Even at the low prices its still being outsold on all fronts by PS4. Even their most popular markets are doing mediocre sales at best.
There was definitely a very nice rush to buy Elite controllers when it came out, but, it has slowed significantly since. I would think the X will suffer as well. Most casual gamers will not see the point of spending $500 for the system when a $200 will be just fine, especially when you consider how much it will cost to invest in a 4K tv to truly see that benefit. For those audiophiles and videophiles, sure their will be a handful, but, its not the mass market type numbers you are thinking ...
Skyrim VR will be huge, as will Fallout VR and Doom probably will do okay too. Some really cool Sony VR games out this year too.
" Crackdown is ambitious in other ways, gameplay ways. Meaningful ways that progress the medium, not qte Hallmark movies that regress it back into cinema."
See now we know your full of BS, Horizon is anything but a QTE hallmark movie. It pulled many elements together and had an original story. Crackdown 3 is a sequel, it literally doesn't do anything significant or different. Heck Agents of Mayhem and other games have the same mechanics as Crackdown.
" Crackdown is easily the most ambitious game of the year. Whether they can pull it off or not remains to be seen but I can already tell you that an enhanced crackdown 1 is enough to beat anything Sony has launched this year. First party stuff, not published stuff like nioh which is fantastic"
Clearly you're on Crack. Seriously Horizon Zero Dawn and Uncharted Legacy destroy Crackdown. Horizon Zero Dawn is more ambitious than literally EVERY Xbox One exclusiv...
Just consider that Xbox colours are mainly Green and black. So imagine that then think the hulk then add in Wolverine. Green Xbox logo, Hulk, Xbox one X with Weapon X!
Apparently exclusives don't matter though?! Its all you have been saying in literally every article. Plus exclusives sell like garbage on Xbox One, why would Marvel want to risk failing? Did you not see the terrible sales for SSO, Recore, Quantum Break, Screamride etc?! Marvel is only looking to work with top studios. If they ever partnered with Ubisoft it would be multiplatform.
Sony also leveraged the fact that MS wanted Spiderman in the MCU and since Disney/Marvel stand to make a billion dollars on merchandise alone had every reason to make the Spiderman as standalone character games exclusive to PS4. MS has no such leverage. As long as Sony is allowing Spiderman to stay in the MCU Disney/Marvel have every reason to maintain that exclusivity.
Except why outsource and make it exclusive to Xbox? Marvel has already shown they want to be multiplatform. Look at Avengers Project with Crystal Dynamic/Eidos Montreal and Square Enix. Sony was an exception as Sony bartered Spiderman MCU entrance to their movies for exclusive rights which makes Marvel over a billion dollars in merchandise sales alone for each Spiderman movie. What the heck does MS have to leverage and barter with? They have the lowest install base who don't support ...
I own all the systems currently out and Xbox has been literally a garbage year. Literally no reason to on my system since Gears 4. Peasants beg for games which PS4 got in spades. Heck the Switch which hasn't been out 6 months yet has MORE exclusives this year than the whole year for Xbox One. That is just sad.
Really Recore, Screamride, Quantum Break were worse. Halo Wars 2 wasn't too great either. With Crack Down 3 also look worse for wear too.
" you dont have to say it its in your comments and sony gets the same games xbox does they just have the extra shovel ware jap games (some are good most bad) your saying thats what xbox needs cause other then that what else. both xbox and sony has the same games. maybe you mean first party? cause thats just a few games sony has and thats it"
No actually PS4 has more 1st, 2nd and 3rd party exclusives period. As for games not being very good? Sums up Xbox One pret...
Like Modiji said they need to broaden their game appeal. This might shock you, but, the world at large is more than just the U.S. and Americas. There is a lot more people outside NA then in it. You know places like Europe? Asia? Etc.
" What horse crap are you talking, MS made Kameo, Banjo Nuts and Bolts, Voodoo vince, Viva Pinata and are making Sea of thieves most Sony exclusives have guns and violence please stop with the horse crap double standards"
Double standards? Kettle calling the pot black much?! Just reread your own stupid comment. Banjo, Viva and Kameo? Your giving props to MS for LAST gen games. Literally has NOTHING to do with the current gen. That's the point you know yo...

" . Look at games like Legendary Wings, Contra, Forgotten Worlds, Metroid, Bionic Commando, all have guns but innovative"
The true irony here is you think guns are the reason these games sold. On top of that you claim that exclusives don't matter yet all these ones you listed were exclusive. Also the innovation here your talking about? Those legendary games are ALL japanese pretty much. But now you are arguing against innovatio...
The true irony is NOW graphics are a big deal 4 years in, when initially 720P and 900P weren't a big deal! Lol. Such goalpost moving. Exclusives mattered then, now its not a big deal because 3rd party games matter more. Also back then it was cool to make fun of PS4 indies ( Indiestation), when now all Xbox had at the last E3 was indies and now their tune is we got so many games, just they're all indies and exclusive 'launch' releases. Keep singing a new tune like a flip f...
Okay and your one person so how does that affect the general population?! Lol.
Sony sold 550,000 PS4 bundles the week Destiny launched. None of which were recorded as units sold for software as they were bundled. Xbox also gave away free copies to try to stop the steamrolling that ended up happening. My store had over 400 system bundles presold enough to build a fort with. Just so you know 400 PS4's was roughly 4 times as the Xbox One launch preorders for my store. So yeah it was NOT close. PS4 sales destroyed Xbox and they continue too. My store already has ...
You guys waited for 4 years to have this power advantage and now its a big deal while you were stuck with 720P and 900P releases. Lol. Way to flip flop. Just like when they drop the price, lose kinect and the S unit will be the next big thing! Now 4K is cool, indies are because its all Xbox got and its cool and yeah a handful of 4K games is not going to change much. Especially at $500. The only reason Xbox started to even sell decent was multiple price drops and the price point near $25...
