It might be something to that effect.
Considering the xbox is pretty much only successful in North America and parts of the UK, it would be considered 'home turf' for sure.
I'm sure outside the US people don't care lol.
$550 with tax already included
$50 for xbox gold
$65 for 1 game
Over $600. That's a lot.
Ball is in Sony's court. 20 mins to go!
Overall it was a decent conference. Not mind blowing, not bad, it was alright.
TitanFall, I'm sure microsoft intends to be the next Halo. It looks like Halo and Cod had a baby. It did look interesting.
Being objective, I would say TitanFall, MGS5 and DeadRising3 were the most impressive.
I've NEVER played deadrising, but I wanted to TRY deadrising 3. If it's exclusive to XboxOne, too bad, I'll make do with PS4 lol.
Why did they say "Exclusively on XboxOne and later Xbox360"
I think that's what they mean by "next-generation platforms"
I hope I'm wrong, but it seemed like xbox exclusive, either permanently or timed. Not enough clarification. Send me a message if you get it clarified.
Was this another game that microsoft payed to be exclusive?
Or will this be on PS4? Possibly wiiu?
The only downside to this is that microsoft once again threw money at EA and now PS4/Wiiu owners won't be getting their hands on the title.
Where were the first party games, why were so many announcements timed exclusives/ payed exclusives from third parties.
I hope Sony crushes it with a strategy NOT dependent on backroom deals with companies that otherwise wouldn't be making exclusive content for their console. ie microosft
Try $550 with tax, +50 for xbox gold.
$600!
I haven't heard a clarification as to whether this is timed or not, it would make sense that it is timed.
Why would capcom release it exclusively on xboxone lol.. money thrown around or not, why would they stagnate the series by only allowing it on xbox one.
How is microsoft the publisher, it says CAPCOM lol.
I used the wrong version piqued, but you totally fuckin lost it in that reply lol.
"microsoft is the publisher" ...No
the wiiu is gonna BLOW this conference away!!!!
NOOBS! Nintendo already wons!
: /
Baby warthogs!!!
you almost look like Tommy Wiseau in that picture lol.
You ever see "The Room?"
What about "Windy City Heat?"
2 of the FUNNIEST cult films that I know!
You realize how many of these fuckin halo games there are lol.
If there's money to be made, but jesus.... The hood OVER the helmet lol. That future technology apparently not blocking out the sun.
I actually meant the overall ms conference. I realized it might be a bit confusing, considering it was in the mgs thread.
I believe mgs is real time lol.
$600 for the box, with tax & xbox-gold subscription... what about the games.
$660?
Uhm... PS3 launch anyone?
Idunoo...ball is in Sony's court.
Someone else said "550 + 50 for xbox live"
I corrected them and added the tax, and this time I forget to include teh gold subscription lol.
Yeah, the $600 for the 'whole experience' is going to be a tough sell. PS3's downfall from launch, maybe history is repeating itself.
Overall it was an alright press conference. Not bad, but nothing that intrigued me nor made the console really stand out as a must have.
The games were 'alright,' once again nothing that made me say "wow, I need this box."
Holding out for Sony's conference, I'm curious as to what Sony has coming.
+ 50 tax so 600 total lol
PS3 launch dejavu
$550 after tax...
Without taking shots at microsoft for the price, it's a little bit much.
Pushing PS3 circa 2006 levels.
Sony has a real chance to steal this if they price that thing below.
$550 after tax...
I am slightly interested in the halo game, simply because I've never played the franchise and may want to start in 2014.
The price though... that's a lot, man. $550 is getting at PS3 circa 2006 levels lol.
IF the PS4 is $399.99 it's game over for microsoft.
IF Sony prices it below 400, no bundle will save the XboxOne lol.
