I wish I could be excited for whatever line up MS has, but their "mic drop" E3 from a couple years back? yeah the only real thing left standing is crackdown. So very cautious optimism for me.
Fanboys, not fans. The fans get it. It's just the fanboys are far more vocal. They don't seem to realize they're one of the things holding xbox back. They enable them when they make the decision to try and buy tomb raider instead of coming up with their own uncharted, they see games like Neir and Nioh and instead of demanding the same level of games they pout and say they don't sell as much as Halo. Not to mention a fanboy's argument changes based on what advantage th...
Because people are tired of those games. halo was around since the original xbox launched. I think it's when you look on the other side and see Naughty Dog moving on from uncharted and staring up the last of us. gorilla moving on from killzone and starting up horizon, and now even sucker punch is moving on from infamous. Then when they look back they see the same three games. And even when MS tries to branch out (to their credit by the way), they fall flat. we get recore, ryse, quan...
Agreed, I sold my X1 and the only game I'm missing out on is sunset overdrive, of which I played some but didn't even finish. it was in my "i'll get back to it" pile.
no, you're just a bigot.
Bigots*
People like you are the reason why SJWs go so far overboard. Bi and SJWs... I wish you'd both just shut up and let us discuss our games.
Sounds like someone's ready for the power of the cloud.

LOL, I wondered how long until we'd see one of these. less than 24 hours....

Not just scorpio, scorpio plus regular xbox one sales and only in NA. so it's a maybe at best, but still a maybe.
I don't think xbox gamers buy square titles in droves, so I guess it's not surprising. I am glad it's "more focused" though. Don't want to see a whole group of gamers left out in the cold because they can't ford two or more consoles.
@meka, well xbox was succeeding like crazy last gen in the markets they focus on, and they tried to turn gaming into an always online, no used games, Kinect required nightmare.
I much prefer when they sales among these guys is close. they keep each other in check.
Sony has been fighting piracy for quite some time, and some of their woes came from the cell processor, yes, all that's true, but I was referring more to the arrogance that came from the PS2's success. The whole, "go get two jobs" thing and "they're sold out, I challenge you to find one"... Things like that aren't best attitude to have, and that's more what I was talking about. that's not the Sony I want to return.
I'll also agree to this. It gets worrisome when just one company pulls this far ahead. I love my PS4, don't get me wrong, but this was the same stew brewing that caused the PS3 launch.
Can you show me where I was on this power trip? Because you seem to be lumping me in with sony fanboys. Pro tip: just because someone criticizes xbox or calls out xbox fanboys does not automatically make them a playstation fanboy. I've called out Sony numerous times as well, but I guess context only matters when we're talking about your comments right?
But let me get this straight, someone says that power matters when talking about scorpio, I point out that if power were t...
@goldby, why not? PS4 wasn't shown at it's reveal. not out of the ordinary.
Actually $60, not $59.99? that'd be a little shady, to get $10 back you'll be a penny short buying a game.
That's true, but situations like this don't always have their biggest impact at launch, but rather, post launch. Once word spreads of how bad the game is with bugs and glitches, sales drop as people decide to wait for patches, sales and GOTY editions. And at that point, a $60 purchase with the potential of dlc purchases down the line becomes a $40ish purchase, or a GOTY purchase with all dlc included.
Dude was making some good points but lost me when he started saying things like scorpio is vanilla and boring. Scorpio has generated more buzz for xbox than anything in months upon months
