I don't see what all the fuss with them leading with Sony is about. It is still coming out on the same day and date as the X1 version.
So either way, IF I want to buy destiny, I can. Although I am skeptical as to if this game will be shoddily done on the X1 based on how hard it is being marketed to Sony. Is that a matter of developer love? Or did Sony cut some nice checks to Activision/Bungie?
Either way, the option is there. So no worries.
Titanfall will definitely go MP and good for it. The franchise deserves the attention that comes with being MP.
TF2 will be on all systems (so Sony fanboys can shut up with the hate and see what it's all about and Xbox fanboys can stop overlooking the honest lack of content found in the first), bring more content and contend with the major FPS series.
The X1 has already delivered some amazing gaming experiences for me and this (as well as Quantum Break) are examples of good times to come.
My wallet is ready!
Halo 5 will be an amazing game for sure! I led off with the X1 and have been loving it. Ryse, PvZ, DR3, Forza, KI, Titanfall, all of those have been a blast. And games like Sunset Overdrive, Halo 5, Gears 3, Quantum Break, Project Spark, Fable Legends, Class 4 and the like will keep the good times coming.
This is exactly why I will own both an X1 and PS4 by next year at the latest. I want to PLAY ALL THE GAMES!
(I waited on a PS4, as only the order and infamo...
WOW. I haven't seen this much positivity on an Xbox article since...well just about ever.
THIS MUST BE A FANTASTIC MOVE
A few points here
1 - The X1 needed a price drop, 500 was way too high, especially next to the 400 dollar PS4. The cost slashing isn't desperation, per se, vice a smart move. It will eventually hit 400 (hopefully sooner than later) which will make it even more competitive.
2 - The x1 is doing well - it is outpacing its predecessor and picking up steam - it's just not doing nearly as well as Sony who has done an amazing job in sales this gen (and they...
So enjoying their exclusives and their service (a matter of personal taste) is a disservice?
Congrats to Sony, they are doing an amazing job.
However, millions have also chosen to play on the X1 and the Wii U. I hope gamers don't forget that it is ok to game on other platforms without being deemed a fool or other bad terms.
You go where you are most attracted based on games and offerings. Sony has the most, MS is doing well and the Wii U...well it'll pick up soon!
Question:
How did MS "fail"? Their initial system rivaled the GC (which both got killed by Sony). Then, the 360 battled well against the PS3 and took a solid share of sales away from the former undisputed champ. And this gen, the X1 is selling better than the 360.
Is the X1 going to outsell the PS4? NO. But that doesn't mean it is "fail". If they sell a lot and profit while making their fans happy, that isn't a loss.
All of this TF bashing is taking me back to the good ole ME days.
When the FIRST ME dropped, you saw so many posts on this site along the lines of either "so what, it's an shooter that claims to be an RPG" or "I'll play it on the PC f u xbox sucks"
As SOON as ME2 went to the PS3, people here praised that series to the heavens and said MS "lost their only game".
The logic of this community is why I come b...
They are almost at 4 million now. They will easily pass 20 million.
And yes, Sony WILL win this generation. But that doesn't mean MS can't also do well.
MS is mixing new titles like Sunset OD, Project Spark, Quantum Break, etc. with well known franchises like Halo, Forza, Fable and Gears. In addition, they are getting 3PS such as we saw with Dead Rising and will see in Titanfall.
I wouldn't be so quick to ring the doom bell - peop...
What is the X1's fortune?
It's doing well - Sony is just doing better. This comment reminds me about what many gamers forget: two companies can do well, but one will win.
Look at the history of PS handhelds and N handhelds. Sony loses each gen BUT does well and succeeds in its own right.
I see that happening here. Sony WILL win the console war - but MS will do well.
Sunset Overdrive
Quantum Break
Project Spark
So at least a few already in the pipeline.
This is great for MS!
Between well known titles like Gears and Halo, new titles like Quantum Break, Project Spark and Sunset Overdrive, along with third party support like Titanfall, MS is showing they are indeed committed to games this generation.
On a purely Gears note, Judgment was solid but not as good as the others (PCF dropped the ball). But every franchise sees a bad game here and there - by no means is it a tired franchise.
We have se...
LOL did the reviewer just read the comments on a few low reviews or did they actually play this?
I notice a LARGE contrast in opinion between those who have played it and those who have just read about it from major portals or "played it at a friend's house"...
This game had some flaws but was a fun game overall with some great scenes and quality story/voice acting.
Easily 7-8.5 range.
He must be insane to think this wasn't going to be compared to GoW. It played a LOT like GoW except that it was more defensive natured than offensive natured.
I was a huge castlevania fan but didn't take to the action style, it lost the property's charm.
Just my 0.02.
This is how I felt about Ryse!
Sometimes my opinion and the mainstream review circles just don't see eye to eye.
From anything my PS4 and X1 friends have said, Knack and Ryse are two of the most over criticized titles in some time.
They aren't focused on games...because they released games that (according to some) were hampered?
While I can concede to Ryse's mixed reactions (although many users who actually played it seem to enjoy it, in contrast to the professional circle), Forza and DR3 were wonderfully received.
And as one who beat DR3 and normal and nightmare, enjoyed the bevy of combos and the city itself, I did not see these limitations in play.
I didn't list all of them, they also had Crimson Dragon and Lococycle available as well. And have already added Halo Spartan Assault and Max: Curse of the Brotherhood (if I got the title right). So the net is fairly nice so far.
The second part didn't even come off as English...
I can play Destiny on the X1
I can't play Titanfall or Sunset Overdrive on the PS4
If you want to talk deals and backing, I would prefer games being playable on my platform of choice, not early betas and a conference show.
(although within 3 years of each gen I own all systems so I have all options regardless)
