So the one example that these rumors are based off of, where some goof kept the system in an enclosed, not ventilated, space, IS representative of the average Joe's living room?
Also take away the titles that should have been on 360 that were given a fresh coat of paint and thrown out there as next gen Xbone titles.

1) Where did I say that YOU are an Xbox fanboy?
2) Which part of my comment is untrue?
Question. If you are so untrusting of gaming companies that you need to unbox a retail unit yourself, what makes you trust that the gaming companies aren't sending you a modded unit, superior to the normal retail version, inside of that box?
Are you serious? Xbox fanboys are STILL trying to challenge the credibility of famousmortimer even after he was proven right about 720p. Ditto for NeoGaf. Don't come on here acting like no one would care. The difference is, Xbox diehards actually question the credibility of people that are right, even after those people are proven right.
You're like a cow grazing around the slaughter house. This is why Xbox die hards get it thrown back in their faces Every. Single. Time.
How do you even have the audacity to comment? At this point, I could sit here and pull a rumor about the Xbox One straight out of my rear end and it will still end up being confirmed a few weeks later. That is how bad it is for Xbox, but you still have the nerve to actually post on this topic with the comment that you did.
You say you're not questioning my intelligence, but then you come with insults like "please think before you type" and "for a moment I thought you were going to give me an intelligent response." You accuse me of taking this personally, when I didn't say anything harsh toward you. I simply gave you an opinion as to why the Xbone is not like the Cell and you got offended on behalf of MS and responded with insults.
As for the ultimatum, you have no i...
Calm yourself down. I put two words in caps to emphasize the distinction between ENTERTAINMENT and GAMING. If that offends your delicate sensibilities too much, maybe next time I'll put them in quotation marks instead—or maybe not, as that is such a petty, childish, thing to whine over.
You have to disagree with my opinion because I'm offended that the Xbox can do dedicated entertainment better than the PS4? Okay. For a second I thought you might find some legitimate ...
This isn't petty pixel counting, Sadist. This is a difference where you are getting over twice (2.25 to be exact) the pixels in a 1080 image as you are the 720. That, my friend, is quite noticeable. The only way you won't notice a difference is if you never look at the better version.
If it's all so meaningless, then why do you have "the best LED tv out so far"?
Even that strategy, of just throwing money at third parties for exclusives, is not without problems.
For starters, they did that and Sony still beat them on quality exclusives last gen. This gen it is going to cost MS more to reproduce a losing strategy. There is no year head start and associated larger install base this time around for them. The headache of the Cell architecture is not there to discourage developers away from Sony's machine and make that MS money all th...
"The Xbox is an unknown just like the Cell was on PS3's launch."
I'm sorry to call your comment out on this, because I've seen it elsewhere, too, but it is not an unknown like the Cell. People just need to stop with that. The Xbone has issues and is harder to develop for because the focus was on ENTERTAINMENT when they designed their GAMING console. It is a design flaw. The Cell was hard to develop for, but produced better results than the 360 once a dev...
In a battle of two trolls, he who gets butthurt loses.
... Be right back.
"no worse than any gap we've seen in the past"
In the past, there was a discrepancy where one system was doing less than half the pixels of the other? I've seen some comments about "pixel counting." When one has over twice the pixels, that's not pixel counting. That's just simply eyeballing the picture and spotting the obvious difference.
As far as this guy being biased, could you elaborate on how he is being so? I think y...
Follow me. Suppose you thought to yourself, "Hmm. That famousmortimer was right about the resolution rumor. I think he's probably right about this one, too." Which of the presented options would you hit if that were the case?
You all do know that famousmortimer was correct about the 720p, right? More than a few comments here suggest an ignorance of that fact. It's pretty embarrassing. I'm not saying you have to swallow everything the guy says from here on out as the gospel truth, but don't sit there and try to act like the guy is a nobody with no credibility, especially considering there are still a number of people on N4G that need to issue a "mea culpa" for the last time they tried to attac...
2 points:
1) When rumors come out about PS4 they tend to be resolved pretty quick. Not long before I saw the first Drive Club rumor I was reading about it officially being canceled. There was the Arabic language rumor Sony quickly addressed by including Arabic. The latest rumor, if I recall correctly, was the MP3, etc., rumor. That's being addressed. In other words, Sony doesn't just let this stuff fester by deceiving the public. It confirms or denies fairly quickly, ...

Have a "funny" bubble for that one.
Thank you, and a "well said" bubble to you. I have both Wii and Wii U, but that's more because I grew up with Nintendo and like their first party lineup. The Wii was marketed to casuals though. Here's a lesson in life: YOU DON'T COMMIT TO CASUALS! Casuals are casuals for a reason. Making long term plans around casuals is a big mistake.
If you don't think MS fanboys have commented on this, then you should probably put down the sticks, pick up a book, go get a tutor, and learn to read.
