The fact that articles like this need to be written really shows how much trouble the Scorpio is in.

Most games use p2p match making and the games that don't are hosted on private servers owned by the company that owns the game.
So for P2P matchmaking the console with the larger player base will provide the better experience simply because the odds of being matched with people closer to you is greater. And for obvious reason privately hosted games offer the exact same experience.
The fact that somehow Live is better for ga...
1. Microsoft doesn't see value in single player games.
2. Microsoft is all about subscriptions.
3. Microsoft encourages micro-transactions and paywalls.
4. Microsoft just wants to rely on 3'rd party for games.
Summary: Microsoft puts profit ahead of games and quality.
And PS4 will still sell double the consoles and software.
Hmm I seem to remember XBoners constantly saying graphics don't matter. Funny how that works.

Sony is going to talk about the most powerful console at E3 this year Scorpio's time as 'the most powerful console" is going to be less than a year.

Microsoft pays for achievements? Geez, I didn't realize Microsoft was so hard up that they need to pay people to play games on their console. No wonder they are so salty after NPD every month. I feel kinda bad now like I made fun of the kid who rides the short bus... it's not their fault there a little slow...
Put Phil Spin'ster in charge and add in a boatload of Microsoft greed. Boom! Flopio is born.
Could you imagine if Microsoft had even one? Wait no, even John Imagination can't imagine that and his name is John freaking Imagination.
Xbox had more games under Mattrick and pretty much all the single player titles people talk about when people get to defending XBones game line-up started development under Mattrick. Ori, Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break, Ryse. And all the big cancellations happened under Phil, Project Spark, Scalebound, Fable Phantom Dust ect.
There have been less games under Phil than there were under Mattrick. Aside from the always online thing (which Phil is still pushing albeit by sho...
I wasn't clear, but what I meant was to release those games in the holiday season not on the same day. If all those games were slated for this year that would be one game every three weeks or so.
Four of the top five games were exclusives.
No, Sony should put there biggest hitters out along side Scorpio to show the contrast between Microsoft and Sony.
You could buy a Scorpio and only play multi-platform games or you could buy a PS4 play the same multi-platform games plus games like GT Sport, God of War, Spiderman, Detroit Become Human, Days Gone and many others that are only on PS4.
Well this pretty much confirms Microsoft's is going full on mobile phone.
Paywalls and micro-transactions are here to stay on XBone.
It's pretty unfortunate if that's what "excites" the XBone community.
Did Bethesda write this article or what?
You forgot the /s
Quit comparing XBone to WiiU. WiiU has lots of highly rated games. XBone just has mediocre service games with lots of micro-transactions and paywalls.

No, it's entirely different.
The Order actually came out and people liked it.
Fable didn't come out, but people liked it and hyped it up until it was canceled then all of a sudden it sucked.
Just like Scalebound which everyone was constantly talking about how good it was going to be until it was canceled then all of a sudden it sucked and they weren't going to buy it.
Well maybe Nintendo, if Microsoft fails to impress I think gaming will be better off to be honest.
The less subscriptions micro-transactions and paywalls and apathy towards creating games the better off gaming will be.
