Yes, but XB1 is getting less and less true exclusives as time goes on, and by the sounds of it most future exclusives will be releasing on PC too.
You don't think there would have been more PC gamers that would have went and bought an XB1 if Titanfall wasn't on PC?
How do you know they were never going to buy one? Plenty of people have PC and a console.
It would be stupid to buy an XB1 now if you already own a PC, or if you were to bu...
The amount of spin from all these articles is getting annoying. "everything is fine, this is great, it won't hurt".
It's not hard to see how this could hurt XB1.
1. People who already have a gaming PC now have less reason to buy an XB1 as well.
2. People who want to buy both an XB1 and a PC might choose just to get a PC now instead.
I fall into the second group. I wanted both but now I'll probably just g...
I don't think Quantum Break will outsell Uncharted 4. Uncharted 4 is going to be massive.
And how do you know Halo 5 has outsold every PS4 exclusive? Microsoft hasn't even released offical sale numbers. The only thing we can go on is VGCchartz, and according to that both The Last of Us and The Uncharted Collection both sold more.
And pretty much all XB1 exclusives sell less than PS4 exclusives.
Yes those are a few games but more and more are now releasing on both. And those are some reasons if you're not a fan of PC gaming, so in that case an XB1 is good.
But I want an XB1 and eventually a decent PC (I have a PS4). But now it makes no sense for me to spend money on both since I can play most XB1 games on PC. So I'll probably just get a PC now. I doubt I'm the only one that will do this.
And like I said, it also gives current PC gamers n...
I'm from Australia. XB1 here is $500. I want a decent PC for games eventually anyway. So why buy an XB1 and a PC when I can save the $500, save a couple hundred more and build myself a PC?
If XB1 games are gonna be on PC then it's a waste to buy both. So again. What reason do I have?
But XB1 loses IMO. As someone that doesn't own an XB1 yet can someone tell me what reason I have to spend my money on one now?
I always like to buy both Playstation and Xbox consoles, and I was planning on buying an XB1 probably around the end of this year. But now I'm not so sure. Instead I might just save the money and put it towards a PC, as I want one too. I can then play all the PC exclusives plus most XB1 games. And this news also gives current PC gamers less r...
You're missing what I'm saying. I'm not asking about Microsoft, I don't really care about what effect it has on them. I'm interested in what effect it has on the XB1.
Yes people choose to play consoles for a number of reasons, but one of the main points has always been exclusives. Microsoft is taking that away basically. For people that don't have the money for a PC or don't want to build one, etc, they'll still get an XB1. But there will be pl...
No you didn't answer my question. I didn't ask how's this good for Microsoft I asked how's this good for the XB1. And I'm not thinking like a fanboy I'm thinking logically. If I can get a PC and play all the PC exclusives AND most of the XB1 exclusives what reason do I have to waste money on buying an XB1?
I find it quite strange that exclusives now no longer matter to Xbox gamers it seems. Exclusives were and are important in determining what console a person chooses. It's what sets them all a part from each other.
Can someone who thinks this move is a good idea please explain how it's good for the XB1
I have a PS4 and I planned on getting an XB1 eventually as I like to have both. But now I'm not sure if I will bother. What's the point? Instead...
Having games like Quantum Break releasing on PC might be good for Microsoft but how's it good for X1? I don't have an X1 but I do plan on getting one eventually, or at least I was planning on it. But with its big exclusives coming to PC as well I now have to decide whether to save that money instead and buy a better PC. That way I get to play all the PC games and the X1 exclusives.
I'm sure there's going to be many people who will ask the same. I don't und...
It's quite easy to see why it would be a blow. It may make people who don't own an X1 question whether to bother.
I don't own one yet and I can tell you it makes me question whether to bother. I could save the money and put it towards a better PC instead. That way I can play all the PC exclusives AND still get to play most X1 exclusives.
It's called respect. Transsexual people don't just wake up one day and decide they want to be a man or a woman. They were born like that and are usually aware of it at a very young age. I'm not an expert but studies have shown that a MTF transsexuals brain more closely resembles a females, and a FTM resembles a males. They don't identify with their physical sex. Sex and gender are not as simple as some seem to believe. And they definitely don't just choose to feel this way...
Wow I can't believe you're getting upvotes. Do you honestly think they just wake up one day and think "I wanna be a girl now". I suppose you think gay people choose to be gay too. So ignorant.
A 2D side scroller? There goes my interest :(
Curious as to why they would do this and why it's a big deal. They already have Music Unlimited and you could already play music using that while playing a game couldn't you?
Oh, please, please, please, PLEASE be true. I miss WWII shooters.
Yes, after VGC changed them. They were overtracking it. They had PS4 at 18.2 as of December 20 when a few days later Sony announced 18.5 as of January 4. So VGC dropped it down to 17.3 as of December 20 then 18.1 as of December 27 and now 18.5 as of January 3. So yeah it's now the same as Sony's number but after they corrected it.

If that's why then that's pretty stupid. Genuinely asking why they downvoted. I never said anything about the downvotes in my comment on the other article and I still got downvotes.
Second top comment didn't complain and they've still got a lot of downvotes.
There should be no restrictions and people don't need protecting when it comes to voice chat. Give me a break. Talking crap is part of the online experience (I don't do it though as I'm a quiet gamer). If you don't like what someone is saying then MUTE them. It's what it's there for. Either that or toughen up and give it back. Much easier than calling for restrictions.
