"It's a great console with a lot going for it, it just needs some more first party support right now."
It doesn't have much going for it though and Microsoft actions have made it that when you compare it with something else it looks like an attack on it, that is not the people problem who are talking about it.
It's games line-up is thin (they have 10% of retail exclusives the PS4 does), they have over promised under delivered all ge...

Honestly, I think micro-transactions helped them grow their digital revenue, since pretty much every game they release is littered with them. XPA obviously helped too.

"Both Sony and Microsoft have at times followed the other's lead on various features and approaches to their gaming business. Just as iOS has influenced Android in some ways despite having a much smaller market share."
The Xbox One has been out for a little over 3 years, launching a new generation is risky.
If I was MS I would not have spent R&D on Scorpio, created a few studios, try to work on your relationship with developers and get ready for a proper next gen. If they go into next gen with the same level of production from them as a publisher this gen, nothing is going to change. You'll get a nice line-up initially that will fade out, like what happened to the 360 and what is ...
People need to recognize the other 2 platform holders (MS and Nintendo) are literally trying to change their strategy of how they pursue consoles based on PlayStation's extreme success. PlayStation made all the right moves for the last 5 years, they executed perfectly worldwide, while the other 2 just scrambled.
I never once said no one else could enjoy 2017, I'm saying 2017 is the best on PS4 and by a wide margin.
and what jab are you talking about? This?
"I know it is kind of the Xbox way so you might not get it, but a game doesn't have to be Call Of Duty to have it dodge cancellation and have it's IP shelved."

I know it is kind of the Xbox way so you might not get it, but a game doesn't have to be Call Of Duty to have it dodge cancellation and have it's IP shelved. Yakuza for example has had 6 main series games and doesn't light the charts on fire. Budgeting and setting realistic expectations are a big part of game development.
Yes. PS4 has more exclusive games than the other 2 combined, it sells more than both combined, has massive franchises releasing all year and has the marketing deals for all the big multi-platform games.
What have I said in my comment history that you have an issue with or feel is incorrect? I also own a 360, a Wii U and have stated many times what I feel MS can do to better themselves as a console manufacturer.
They were also wrong about Game Mode coming to power Scorpio and Xbox One, as Game Mode is already built into it from the beginning.

Now they reap the benefits.

It says €549 too (no games or accessories), that would be suicide.

They also claim that it is $550/€549.
$550... I don't believe this. It would be suicide releasing at that price.
He maintains his view while apologizing. Got it.

It's just too strong.

"I'm sorry- are non-exclusive games not games?"
Of course, so are indie games. Knack is also a game, Resogun is a game, Bloodborne is a game too.
What have I said in my comment history that you have an issue with or feel is incorrect? I also own a 360, a Wii U and have stated many times what I feel MS can do to better themselves as a console manufacturer.
I only see people stating a lack of games, which is completely true.
So you feel people should be censored from making legitimate complaints against a publisher?

What exactly did someone say that was so wrong? Having a lack of games?
"Please stop the no games on Xbox thing!"
Why? It's a actual thing.
