The Xbox One is not going to see a massive jump in sales, even with the Kinect unbundled.

When Titanfall was releasing everyone and I mean everyone from the media over hyping Titanfall, Microsoft bundling Titanfall & Forza for free, dropping the price and retailers creating their own bundles to get the Xbox One to sell and it didn't. It lost that NDP and everyone since. The general public just doesn't want it, people need to just accept that and move on.

Killzone Shadowfall is definitely a disappointing installment in the franchise. But it wasn't hyped up even close to the level Titanfall was.

"Xbox HAS 2014 conquered"

If conquered means less games, less hardware sales, less software sales, lower rated games and worse performing multiplatform titles, sure they conquered 2014.

The PS4 has 2 GOTY winning franchises releasing this year. The Last Of Us and LBP3. Not to mention that PS4 games on average have been rated higher for 2014.

Selling sub 100,000 units in a month on your homebase is not "gaining momentum" by any stretch of the imagination.

A few examples of over hyping.

I love how Microsoft has now resorted to just trying to be like the Playstation 4 and how it portrayed itself to the consumers. It's so insincere, it's makes me sick. All of a sudden it's about the core gamer not the soccer moms, it about the Kinect being optional not forced, it's about consumer choice not treat them like criminals, it's about indies having control not blocking them out. Not to mention last gen it was about Xbox being the best place for multiplatform games...

Titanfall is by far the winner. It was touted as a the game that would revolutionise the first person shooter and gaming in general. The game was marketed as an Xbox One exclusive and the game that was the reason to buy an Xbox One. When in reality it was a cross generation title available on the PC and Xbox 360 with Xbox One version running like a last gen game with at 792p with an inconsistent framerate. The cloud was also suppose to change everything, all it produced was stable servers and...

My favorite part.

"When asked why Xbox One fell behind in the first place, Spencer only stressed how important it was that Microsoft recently rolled out a version of the hardware without Kinect for $399, the same price as a PS4."

Yes that's why you still lost NDP and worldwide while giving away their "Most anticipated title in years" and Forza 5 with retailers creating their own deals aswell for the console.

The last ...

"The only people I've seen repeat that sort of nonsense is the usual Xbox trolls, and they don't really represent Xbox fans as a whole"

Maybe here. Go to an pro Xbox site. And yes the fanboys don't represent the fanbase as a whole, I shouldn't even have to state that.

61% for PS4 in UK for a game with no exclusive advertisement or content is super impressive.

"Touted by who? The author should have stated who exactly is making those claims"

Xbox One fans looking for any glimmer of hope to stop the bleeding on the technological conversations involving the hardware. The cloud is another example of this, which Microsoft should have never said it'll make the Xbox One 10x more powerful. Think about it, the Xbox One is getting beat by the PS4 is hardware sales, hardware performance, software sales and software performance....

@jmac53

Sometimes people want games to fail because it's not available on only one platform, they all do it.

It's not them playing the game, it's you not playing the game.

4226d ago 8 agree15 disagreeView comment

Yeah, cause that worked real well for the Xbox One.

Not to mention, pretty much all of the games are garbage. Which is slim pickings currently and with it being detached and the Xbox One selling next to nothing recently, I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Who ever wrote this is probably just a hurt Xbox fan going through the motions of concern trolling.

@Darkstares

I'm not speaking my opinion on the hardware side of thing. Numbers are numbers and most to all of the relevant numbers are much higher on PS4.

Insomniac - 3rd party
Crytek - 3rd party
