What - there's more than One XboxOne?
Ouch.. Hope MS have a sense of humour. Got a feeling they are going to need one.
You don't have to hate a console, but you gotta love it to buy it!
Don't see no love out there for this.
No tech breakdown or strong details. Hardly any trailers. From a gaming console reveal?
Nah!!
This would be great for the film companies themselves but will never happen.
The UK government tried to bring a house tax for all adults living in the house rather than the usual per house tax. This helped bring Margaret Thatcher's government down.
System not released yet so its possible to change policy. But if its built into the OS and new network system it may not be possible to change at this late stage.
They cannot delay the release.
I was looking forward to getting my hands on a PS4 this year. With what has happened this week can you imagine how long we may have to wait?
It could be sold out for a solid 6 months!!
Damn MS...
The wii had very few great games only mario, mario, etc. and catered for casual gamers. Great marketing, rubbish console.
** They bring out wiiU and should sell millions based on past sales - what happens? It bombs initially.
MS 360 had initial cheap hardware, no wifi, HDD, etc. Charged for online gaming and only had Halo/Gears, etc. Great marketing, okay-ish console.
** They bring out TV Box and shows their true intentions. Were they ever real...
Its called ridicule!
Gotta agree. I have heard that playing Killzone with the Shooter move add-on is great and I'll get it one day for the fun factor.
But I prefer the controller for most other games.
Don't blame Microsoft for being... Microsoft.
Blame yourselves. One major reason I never even considered the 360 was the BS over pricing. Everyone told me they were cheaper than PS3 for example.
But say I bought a PS3 and a game for single player and multi player action along with a blu ray movie. For the same Xbox experience and multi platform game/HDD movie I would have to buy:
* Basic 360 without hard disk.
* Proprietary Hard D...
Not that bothered by GTA any more after 4. It was such a bore. I got sucked in by the hype.
This time I'll wait for a few months after to see what the game is really all about.
Can not wait until E3. Sony and developers have had another 3 months to prepare even more trailers. And there have got to be some exciting kick-ass trailers for Xbox One (we hope).
But how could they have only really shown this as an example of their grunt and power in their new console.
We are all in for a treat.
I am surprised Activision allowed MS to throw them to the wolves. It seems cruel.
A gaming console should offer multiple uses but should first and foremost be about games. Otherwise you are creating an entertainment system not a games console. Its in the name!
They may well hit a market with their enormous advertising budget. Its just not for me right now. It also has one major obstacle for living rooms and bedrooms - its enormous size.
Cable Box/ Sky Box ==> Huge XboxOne ==> Kinnect ==> TV.
That's a lot of ha...
I have not got a clue what the wiiU can do or what games it has. The only time I have heard about it is all the jokes at its expense the past few months.
So I figured it must be bad. But after the other night even I was thinking that maybe the wiiU is worth a look after all.
There sales figures will increase as a direct result of the reveal. Ain't that the weirdest thing ever?
People look to the future and think "okay, what will I bu...
We need to stop thinking in terms of Xbox fans and Sony fans now. Its gaming fans. Buy a wiiU if you like, buy a PS4, buy whatever you want just have fun!!
Your past purchases should not prevent your future ones.
It's great having a birthday in November!!
Perception is 9/10ths of the truth.
Sony build stronger gaming system and focus on games, developers and the gamer.
MS build a multi-faceted hybrid system and don't even mention developers and trots out a sub-par multi plat trailer.
So without a single unit sold people have an idea what to expect from their future purchase. There were small differences last gen - hence the console wars got hotter.
We don't need such w...
You make an excellent point I had not thought of before. With software hacking anyone could be looking for kids playing and pass that on in their "circle".
I am surprised this will be legal. The more I think about it the worse it gets.
I never really got this aspect when watching the reveal, the lack of games was more noticeable.
I don't trust software switches. It has to be a hardware one. Why on earth would you need to have c...
