@DeadlyOreo...
You (and the internet) keep going on about some "Sell more Xbox Ones"...
Microsoft isnt worried about the physical box as much as us "Pawns" are.
This is about growing Windows Store, UWP, etc.
This about platform growth for MS not a 4-5yr hardware fight. Xbox One got trounced out the gate by PlayStation and yet it doesnt matter.
Those Live subs, Game purchases, et...
@SweetLeafSmoker...
Do u even know what they do???
Dont be dumb for the sake of being dumb...
do people not understand the definition of "turned down"?
Here is the definition in a nutshell
"If we cannot keep the IP, we have to TURN DOWN your request/pitch"...
im not big on Guerilla Games (I only liked Killzone 2) but i have the digital deluxe version pre-ordered...
please let the game be as good as it looks...
Read the between the lines of Mr. Hirai's replies... he knows the product is lacking, also appreciates those who purchased v1.0 PSVR. He's not gonna just up and say that "it sucks" but he can low key say it, and that's exactly what he just did in the article.
Kaz also knows that they have to improve greatly on device. Its been reported that Zuckerberg over at Facebook was already being seen testing an improved version of RIFT that is said to also be t...
Thank you Kaz Hirai... at least u can admit that PS VR v1.0 SUCKS, and you're willing to work on it.
@PhoenixUp
you could always buy Microsoft Stock. i believe they give a very detailed report to stock holders
@bouzebbal
go buy Microsoft stock... you may get a detailed report on sales numbers...
or do you need them numbers so that you can have something to sling around on N4G?
Microsoft (or 3rd parties) can do whatever they like with the hardware...
People brag about so many PS4/Pros being sold and Sony is still a sneeze away from going back to junk status as a company.. So many units being sold, and yet the company is still on the red/black borderline.
Microsoft already did their write off on Kinect so that's out the way..
You honestly think their losing money now on a box that's using a 4yr old Jaguar CPU an...
buzzwords are what sell to the less technical..
buzzwords have been a thing in console gaming since forever ago...
@Shin-Zantetsuken...
what is wrong with Amazon going back to the black friday price point again?
xbox one (base ps4/slim too) are only worth $250, if that.
but you're happy that sony is keeping the price point high on a product (ps4 base models) that isnt worth that price point any longer? doesnt make sense to me.
ya'll obviously has NO idea "How Business Works"...
ya'll come on the forums and become arm chair analyst.
MS is a publicly traded company, and their last financial report showed that they didn't do half bad.
slightly down on hardware, that's OK. cause it's slightly down and only losing 2-3% profit on each unit sold.
Xbox Live is up 33% in terms of unique users and purchases (100% profit in terms of Xbox live gold rev...
@Ju...
naw... when your allowed to spend billions on R&D for the latest and greatest tech.
and even allowed to shrink the current box and add a 4K bluray drive.
I think the higher ups are pretty confident in the product.
@Garfield
"They need all the help they can get"
Yeah a mega software company that has made more $$$ at any other point in company history needs all help it can get..
I'll agree when they have to sell Windows, or Office, or Azure... or even Xbox..
Maybe they'll just sell a building or something..
Oh wait, they only sell when necessary not when desperate
@Scofios..
At least they can afford to do it..
#levelstothis
MS NOT BROKE
Why people who have ZERO interest in Xbox worry about what Microsoft does with it and price point...
Microsoft corp. isnt broke, nor desperate...
For Microsoft its all fun, like videogames are suppose to be...
For Sony its desperation... cause they every dime that can be generated
Microsoft has even earned more money at any other point in company history...
Theres levels to this...
@Abash...
Microsoft corporation isnt too worried about it..
This is all being funded by changed found in Bill Gates couch cushions...
Just make sure you (and I for that matter) continue to buy PlayStation games to keep Sony from selling another division or building or something...
reviews for yakuza 0 all seem pretty positive...
but im only buying 2 games at full price point in the next 3mos... horizon:zd and mass effect
