Because Microsoft may be able to hide behind all the veils they have to the common person and even potentially some shareholders but when a company directly makes you games and in this case offers you exclusive things you no longer have that option.

Titanfall was exclusive and now isn't going to be. If it did well and the audience using XOne was higher this wouldn't be the case.

EA also has EA Access currently exclusive to XOne. Microsoft does have to...

"What the collection won't include, however, is Batman: Arkham Origins, which was made by Warner Brothers' Montreal studio. The rest of the series was helmed by Rocksteady."

While I can get the point PIP namely has become sparse in newer TVs in particular. You're lucky to have it. I have a 55" Vizio 4K. It's an amazing TV for the price and is internet enabled but sadly, PIP isn't a feature.

The snap feature brought me the option to do so and didn't actually bother my game. The item snapped on the other hand...

The only thing PS4 could actually use is the snap feature. During NFL season in particular it was nice to be able to snap the Bronco game and still be able to play some games without having to majorly switch focus to another device or switching channels.

Are there still drawbacks to it? Yes as I noticed many things, live TV in particular, seem to become unstable while playing resource heavy games.

It's kind of amusing to see the uninformed comments above ...

"I know quite a few people"

So, your friends don't count as the majority and clearly, many more people in this exact same topic disagree.

But excuse me. I'm glad you being the voice of others eliminates out the voices who have spoken for themselves.

Seeing more touch devices release standard controller support also seems to back the fact further.

If they hope to make NX backward compatible with WiiU this will simply not be an option unless they admit to a half baked WiiU.

Unless they make WiiU backward compatibility an optional option of course. Then using the gamepad from today will not suffice due to the lack of any internal processing.

I really hope people hoping on this "NX will be uber great" bandwagon consider what they are asking for. Nintendo shot themselves with the inner workings o...

@garrettbobbyferguson: If that's anywhere near the truth it's likely due to Nintendo hyping up the ability to use multiple gamepads before launch and then never delivering citing experiences would have to be tiny.

This is of course since the WiiU already reserves half of its own resources to simply run the UI and gamepad. Adding another into the mix would leave it next to nothing and result in games like Pong being playable with two as a max point.

That, might I add, contribute to better sales by selling the better product. Resolution accompanies that somewhere.

Why would people buy a product that has to skew the truth, offers inferior versions side by side, and constantly releases broken first party titles, from a software company of all things?

Every game on the official list is also on PS4. Halo 5 was not one of the top ten selling games of 2015. It only ranked 8 even for the month of November.

It's even highlighted that seven of those ten sold better on PS4.

To any extent goes to prove the point. Microsoft continues to try ...

@sangoku_d: I believe he was asking how they know the PS4k will be $500... That's the only one listed in the original post with a $500 total.

No, that's why they're now trying to advertise being the only console to have every top ten best selling games of 2015 then including Halo 5 in it. A statement which also isn't true.

So what you're saying is Microsoft wasn't given permission to out Black Ops as a BC title almost ten months ago while they still promote it as coming via BC and decided to out the details themselves, without having the team behind it to back it.

Seems like my statement above. Microsoft making statements that aren't true to make the Xbox One seem more attractive than it is.

As soon as you had to bring up I seem bitter then have no backing for why t...

...Read the story?

"(If you're unaware what this "leak" is, in March it was reported that an ex-Rockstar employee listed "Red Dead Redemption 2" on his resume.)"

It is considered a "leak" as an ex-employee outed it.

Love how people above clearly don't read the stories involved and would rather jump on this Pachter hate bandwagon.

He doesn't state a yes or no nor a date. Just says it's obvious it's going to happen as people want it, stemming from the 10+ million sales RDR has already had. He even goes on to state GTA 6 rumors should just be dropped as it's obviously happening too.

For the last time. He's an ANALYST, not a FORTUNE TELLER! His job is...

Microsoft is also stating they're the only console maker with every top ten best selling game of 2015 directly on Xbox.com. That however is not true.

Further they've been stating Black Ops is coming to backward compatibility since the announcement when it has not.

So they're filing for a patent to use multiple Amiibo on one device unlike Skylanders, Disney Infinity, and Lego Dimensions already does in the same manor?

So you say this patent would hold no bearing in said situation outside of Nintendo seeking to sell more accessories and lock out the way the competition can even though they already have and do?

Then Nintendo claims to have spent $500 million on R&D this year. Sure it's easy to justify spending...

That have similar things with more functionality from third party companies, I.E. Disney Infinity, Skylanders, and Lego Dimensions.

Kinectimals on a small scale did the same. Buy this plush to unlock such and such. Show your Kinect a QR code from the Kinectimals app to unlock your Kinectimal you've been working on via mobile or vice versa. Better is that bad no extra cost.

Eye of Judgement for PS3 was a full scale game that did it better even sadly.

3715d ago 1 agree2 disagreeView comment

And why wouldn't it be able to seeing as Amiibo was released after WiiU?

Not to mention then they can sell you more of those "accessories" to complete your gaming experience instead of you know, adding it to the game.
