@gangsta I believe Ilostmymind was applying your logic to xbox seeing as just about all games available on it can be played and enjoyed on other platforms. I assume he chose forza because that's what all the xbox fanboys point to when talking about the X1X. But I'm just guessing.
That's true, but will that message reach the masses that look to buy one? Your average consumer is going to walk into a store, or pull it up online and see "4K" on the box. meanwhile for the half the price the X1S will be sitting right there.
Are you planning on playing a game with your son? If so you'll run into problems unless he buys the game separately. I don't think play anywhere and cross play can be used at the same time like that unless something changed while I wasn't looking.
Also, why not just leave your 360 hooked up? I just grabbed a $10 splitter from amazon and hooked up all my last gen consoles through it.
First thing I thought was "what about all the touch controls?" then I remembered we have that touchpad on the DS4 that we never use except as a map button. Then after that thought I started hoping if this comes about they nix all the touch controls.
On the naughty dog side, do you mean like the last of us? Or were you talking about sony Bend? in which case do you mean like days gone?
Yeah, I feel the best time for this would have been the collection.
most disagree.
It was a really good game. I'd say about on par with uncharted 3, better than 1 but admittedly, 2 and 4 stand head and shoulders above all of those.
Based on your comment, I'd strongly urge you to wait on those games to come before plopping down half a grand. If you wait for it to get a few games you want, it won't just be in your entertainment center just for the sake of being there, plus you'll most likely be able to take advantage of a price drop. It's what I'm doing with the switch.
Agreed. first generation xbox gave us Halo. Second gen brought gears. third gen... ... ... project spark?
@saijahn, no. it does not. not even close actually.
I wish we had some better games journalism. I'd love to see a story on what UWP can end up doing.
PS Now games won't launch day and date with PS4 games on PC. That's a big difference that you're purposefully ignoring. But it doesn't matter. we all know that when we say exclusives what we really mean is a game the other system can't play. It's just not the best phrase to describe it. I'd rather we call them MS exclusives and Sony exclusives. Everything else just feels like arguing semantics.
At the end, their point is that Xbox 1 is redu...
@vega I have both a PC and PS4 and I greatly prefer to game on my PS4. Believe it or not, pretty pictures aren't the most important thing to a lot of gamers.
OPP, or in this case, OPiP
Andrew is right. the CPU (and I'd add hard drive) seems outclassed by the rest of the box.
@ares, I would agree but both Sony and MS were very clear at the start of the generation that there wasn't going to be any backwards compatibility. So anyone making an informed decision and wanting to keep playing their old games would have kept their old consoles. I know I did. As far as paying for games you already own, that's based on a misconception that xbox pounced on if you're referring to PS Now. PS Now was never intended to be an answer for BC. Sony went out of their...
I actually quite enjoyed Xbox's conference. apart from their shady "console launch exclusive" wording, I thought it was good. I liked the love shown to indies. And they seemed to be pushing to bring some PC games to xbox, not just put xbox games on PC.
Yeah I got to the point of every time I turned on my X1 I had to wait for an update to download and install before I could even use it. And knowing that MS did monthly updates, I knew I was using it less than once a month. X1 is to this day the only console I regret buying. I would have kept it and been fine with it, but with all their games on PC day and date now, it became redundant.
You: "PS Now games won't launch day and date with PS4 games on PC." - Just like MS Console exclusives.
