Please stop bringing this up. Framerate hasn't been a priority for about 3 or 4 gens.
PS "gaymers" play the exact same type of games as Xbox "gaymers." Only a small percentile of each fan base actually ventures outward.
"why should i buy Xbox if it doesn't offer anything you can't find on those two systems ?"
Then just don't buy it. It's really that simple. It's not rocket science.
Where did he deny the reality? He said he doesn't expect the X1X to sell that much so what is it that he isn't accepting?
Oh come on. Stop acting like this isn't one of the reasons Sony is on top today. Stop acting like MS is doing something new.
Forza Horizon 3's textures are downsampled from 8k.
Their fanbase didn't vanish. They're on PS. People run to whatever console has the best running multiplats (minus the upgrades). Same happened to the 360.
Future proof does not mean it will never be obsolete. Have you guys ever watched a tech conference before? It means that any technological advances that happen in the near future will be compatible with it. Like how the X1X has features in it that aren't available in TVs until next year.
If you have a problem with the price and lack of exclusive games, then this product is not for you. It's really that simple. You don't have tell people why you don't think it's worth it. Because the reasons as to why they think it is are different then yours.
No telling. Who knows what new game will come up.
If you're old enough to remember MS being a "horrible company" then you're old enough to know that your beloved Sony AND Nintendo has done every vile act you criticize MS of doing.
What I read: Anybody with a different preference in games than me are desperate.
It's not a matter of opinion. MS has the largest server infrastructure in the world.

"Their core philosophy, as preached by Phil and Aaron has been that single player games aren’t the future."
No they didn't. Phil said they don't make as much money.
"Single player and story are things that are timeless"
You do know that multiplayer games are older than single player games right?
"It is simply convenient for MS to change the narrative from exciting new games to performance being the most important consideration because they are providing nothing in the way of game development."
It's simply convenient for ANY company to change a narrative to what they have an advantage in. All companies do it. Yes Sony as well. You don't see Sony boasting about their online service do you? Why? Because that's not an area they have the advantage ...
Well, Mario is an established franchise with about a 30 year advantage on this game. So what's your point? It's going to sell more than any platformer on PS4 or PC as well. You do realize that even a garbage game with Mario in the title will sell millions? Mario can literally sell on name alone.
No they won't. Because the same people claiming they aren't going to buy, are likely going to buy. Same happens to Cod and 2K every year.
@Nyxus I frequent sites like N4G and Reddit. Even on Youtube. You'll see the same profile names complaining about milking a franchise, MTs or whatever. Then come back and see them talking about regretting purchasing it.
Multiplayer came before Single player. Just so you know.
Probably won't see either of these until the beginning of next gen, or the end of this one.
