WOW, is Halo going to be #1 until it's released.
You should be happy; there was a time when GTA was exclusive to PS. There was also a time when GTA debuted later on Xbox...no more
Well said
It's great to see the fruits of their efforts being appreciated by so many.
Hats off to Moon Studios, very well deserved.
The attention to detail is very impressive
That's some high praise
Great to see varied gaming options on X1.
WOW, it includes live pause, didn't expect that, that's great
Same here
Even when I have the controller in my hand I often blurt out a voice command....
it's become 2nd nature now
saying what you want just seems normal
Shame my oven doesn't work the same way.
BFH is doing well
Also impressive to see Forza Horizon 2 at #13, now 6 months after launch.
"Chromehounds"
Somewhat similar to MechWarrior
I enjoyed them both very much.
May the wind always be at your back.
Farewell
Not really surprising
When one platform has few FPS ppl will gravitate to a game like BFH with its metacritic score of 74.
On X1 ppl are playing TMCC, 85, and TF, 86.
There are a couple of companies that rate the credit rating of major companies..
Specifically Fitch and Moody's.
Both say MS has a significantly higher credit rating than Sony, a true measure of what savvy investors need to pay action to; a company's future and ability to generate profit.
A 35% increase still doesn't put Sony anywhere near the value of MS with a 7.7% decrease.
Fitch and Moody's look at a compa...

You've captured the incredible strength of the halo franchise nicely.
I'm going to disagree with your comment about "relative to it's install base", funny thing, despite this being a troll article, Gamer1982 has led everyone to see the Halo actually punches WELL ABOVE its weight class.
One only needs to look back at similar consoles, say the PS3, and see how no exclusive achieved the 12m mark. The closest game...
Funny that one of the biggest launches in history is considered abysmal?
1,000,000 consoles in 24 is now abysmal, who knew?
I also have to laugh at the statement about a redesign normally happening after 4 or 5 years? Seems to me that most consoles generations only last 5 years, with the last generation being the exception.
Still, it's always exciting to see a redesign.
Another troll article trying to pass off a new SKU as a price drop, lol
"Throwing money at third party game publishers for a pointless and aggravating period of console exclusivity seems like an awfully negative and petty strategy in comparison."
While that is certainly an understandable opinion, why is this opinion levered against just one manufacturer.
Hint:
No Mans Sky
Destiny
etc
"You may be skeptical about DirectX 12, and I don’t blame you. After all, PC (and often by extension, console) games have been handicapped for years by prior versions of Microsoft's API."
Very impressive results
Good to see PC and X1 will no longer be handicapped.
The RedButterfly hit the nail on the head.
No amount of crying can change the fact that X1 had a 2nd SKU.
You can still buy X1+Kinect so an apples to apples comparison is possible
But comparing 2 SKUs is like comparing a Mercedes AMG to the base car, the difference is the content, and EVERYONE knows it.
Interesting part of the article is that the PS4 actually achieved the lowest selling price.
You mean like the Killzone 2? What a joke that was.
You mean like The Last Guardian? Seven years ago and it looked like it was done, I guess not.
You mean like the Quantum Break real gameplay video?
Halo 5 had a Beta.
Save you effort, your comment history says it all.
If you hate MS so much why are you here on a MS article?
Insecurity confirmed.
"On the other hand, the Xbox One will get some help from the fact that nowadays all the commands from the CPU cores to the GPU compute units are serialized by DirectX 11. On the other hand developers will be able to have those instructions parallelized with the DirectX 12."
Good news, between this and the 15% increased ESRAM efficiency, I'm excited to see the improvement in the already great looking games.
