Yeah but the thing is, Phil actually IS making the changes people want, and is reshaping xbox. Nobody can deny that now.
I think they have been prepping for this Gen with a 10 pronged attack.
Sure Xbox 1 was not as good as it should have been, especially with games, but the platform and ecosystem as a whole, and the future creations are clearly alive and well at xbox, and that is largely due to Phil's leadership. I just hope the next gen xbox games can BE what we all h...
But if MS has Some great games this Gen (finally please?) Then Xbox gets those day one on Gamepass. Nobody in the market even come close to the potential value of Gamepass with day one, new/1st Party titles. If MS can show some enticing games this time around, and have a meaningful power advantage, I think that would truly make people consider Xbox out of sheer Value over the life of the console.
More left over money to buy the top multi-platform games, and saving money with gamepass...
Ms is ahead in ALL regards, just not 1st party quality games.
Other than the top quality 1st party games tho, I don't like anything about playstation besides their dynamic themes.
I feel MS destroyed them in ALL departments this time around.
If MS can just get their shit together with 1st party this time, then I'll definitely be happy.
But for multiplatform games, and backward compatibility, Xbox will be by far the better option.
I actually think it deserves more praise than it got to be honest. It's not a masterpiece or anything but it is fun and has more to it than most are expecting. Definitely worth a try. I'd give it a 7 or 8 out of 10
But in Many ways GTA is meant to be Satirical. Like for reals, (Just listen to the commercials and talk show subject matter on the radio stations in game) the games are both aiming for the feel of a booming living city, and also the stereotypes, the serious and of course, Non-serious nuances of both.
It's not meant to be taken as a purely serious thing, and I think the humorous side of the games is one of the things keeping it from being taken literally, or way too far,...
Sir Douchington of Prickingshire!
So glad to see you here, outside the walls of your Noble kingdom, to mingle with us dreary commoners.
But the convenience of playing on the go or not in front of a TV may be satisfactory for some to not mind the latency that MS, and everyone already expects when using a cloud based streaming platform.
And in all honesty I get used to the latency in most cases after about 3 minutes of playing a game. Whether is is just the way a game is designed or it is because I'm streaming, I adapt and get used to it.
Some may be too displeased to play with that latency, and ...
I want some Coronavirus Chocolates!
I want to stare at the premium theme while I chill in Quarantine.
What about when we finally get to play Metroid? Those games are fantastic. Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu/Evee? Those are good too.
I'm not re-writing anything, and I'm not saying "triggered" to try to be a douche, and I even admit I may not have said what I meant the right way. I am just saying this because when someone breaks down a comment like this and the tone that was coming thru, it just seems like you were really upset or something.
My point wasn't to start a fight or anything either. I was just trying to remind folks that it was never supposed to be a statistical literal word festi...
I'm not mad at you or trying to put you on blast, so Idk what has you so triggered right now. But honestly I'm just pointing out what I read from his comment, because to me it was pretty clearly meant to be sarcasm. Sarcasm that was taken literally and nit-picked just cuz of who he is, like it always is.
You usually are more chill, IDK what your deal is today, but I felt it was pretty clear what he meant, especially when you factor in his Avid support of xbox over t...
But it kind of is... he is saying "I was under the impression-"
Paraphrasing the conclusions Sony fans were jumping to Saying MS was toxic and going to push for gaas and be anti consumer and it would be a bad example for the whole industry, and that casuals would make the market shift because MS is evil etc.. etc.. and all kinds of crap.
He is Not actually saying what you guys think. You are missing the sarcasm he intended and are going full literal with ...
Idk how I feel about showing age, cuz sometimes games come out that Amaze late in the Console cycle. Like TLOU, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, God of War, and Gears 5 etc.. etc..
I see game pass as part of the pioneering of pushing dev's and companies to start thinking pro consumer.
No, he is reciting the phrases that Sony fans were saying for the last year + saying Xbox was gonna disappear and not even make game consoles and will push cloud gaming become GAAS etc.. etc.. Most Sony fans were saying crap like this.
Now the have no choice but to see that they were 100% wrong.
Getting Master Ninja on all Challenge missions and story levels on Ninja Gaiden Black. And Halo 5 On Legendary Solo.
Seriously impressive. Every Airport in the world.
Should have been 3 hundred bucks at launch. Should be max 200 now IMO
Yeah MS knows what they are doing this time around. That's for sure.
Just give us good 1st party games, and OMG it'll shake up the market share drastically compared to this gen.
