XBOX GAMING THREAD | PHIL TRUE 4K

[Bert.]

so sad how i went and spent pretty much $500 on a xbox one and and few games especially halo. Since week 2 of release i havent even touched it.

the game not working seriously ruined it for me. i dont even have the urge to play and by reading it seems like its still not fixed.

hate wasting money for no reason

Another Assassin's Creed :x :x :x it needs to end. How many times can you climb the same building that was in the last game just colored differently?

I really wish they would go in this direction. End the series and start a new IP.

The mechanics are cool in those games, but they always end up being zzzzzzzzzzzz

 Some points from the video:
Not selling as well due to it’s reveal
Don Mattrick
The Kinect holding the xb1 back
xb1’s savior Phil Spencer
Exclusivity
Brand Loyalty

The xb1 won me over when they did their 180s. They got rid of their arrogance much faster than their competitors. Which I commend them for that.

The xb1 is killing it right now in terms of listening to their fans. The fact that they have a webpage dedicated to user input speaks volumes to me.

The games. Excellent so far and I can't wait for what'll be released next.

When the xb1 was revealed I was against it, now I'm all for it.

Xbox Won...me over.

Being outsold ~2:1 is quite a humbling experience, I imagine.

MOAR PEOPLE WHO I WILL NEVER MEET HAVE THIS CONSOLE THAN THE OTHER ONE OMG!

MS overestimated their brand loyalty. A lot of people jumped shipped, especially based on priced. Poor marketing in the beginning also, the "always online" situation" beside other factors hurt MS this first year. PS is always sold in many more markets compared to X1 so a lot has lead to the struggle to sell as much. Personally my brand loyalty and preference is too strong to dip like that. Other's not, I don't judge or care about my real life friends who left. end of the day I am winning still because I am overrun with games presently and my X1 community has gotten even stronger since becoming active on NT and linking with a lot of you guys. Generally in console war talks that is the first point thrown out, sales, but I have 2 hands and can only play 1 console at a time, idc who sold more, who is going to give me a better online experience my major factor in gaming. I really liked where MS is going with X1 with like an real ENTERTAINMENT console, the games are there but it's expanding it for so much more. I can forsee a balance in the future this gen in sale figured eventually. the tortoise vs the hare, X1 is clearly the tortoise. My opinion, don't kill me if you disagree. lol

I think having a 2 billion loss "is quite a humbling experience."

I almost bought a ps4 last dec, since m$ was ....ing up, but I waited it out. I wanted to see what all the consoles had to offer before I entered next gen. m$ had much more to offer, so it's my console of choice right now. Given m$'s Phil Spencer's efforts, it could be my console of choice for the entire gen.

PS is always sold in many more markets compared to X1 so a lot has lead to the struggle to sell as much.

The xb1 is selling more than the 360, so the xb1 is clearly selling well.

Same here. I vastly preferred 360 over the ps3.

I understand. I see it that way too. $ony's success has made some ppl eager to jump to them, but in terms of games some people people realize "where they at doe?" and it's inferior online network. The ps3 had a rougher start than the xb1, so I think it's possible for the xb1 to make a comeback in sales.

But I don't care about sales, which is one reason why I purchased an xb1 over the ps4.

^ It sure will be if the PlayStation division contributed to that loss but it didn't.

Phil Spencer seen as the savior for Xbone . It's not like MS was going to let him keep the same ideas Don was criticized for. Phil is the mascot for the new look Xbone.

"but in terms of games some people people realize "where they at doe?" Come on people still say this

Just because LBP, driveclub, and last light didn't score Ninety like FH2 or Sunset doesn't mean they don't exist. If you wanted the same could be said for MS, they bunch up

all their first party games to release around Sept-Dec and the rest of the year is multiplats.

So how was Sunset? Haven't heard to much about it since it released.

And I didn't know FH2 released on 360 too.

Actually the ps3 wiped out any profits made by the ps1 and ps2. Only recently did the division start becoming profitable again

Cool open world game. Has funny moments, jokes on pop culture. Some here dont like it. Few others do like myself. Its not a needed purchase unless u catch it on sale, no replay value, not challenging crazy either, its just...fun

If I recell Sony was almost Belly up after that Ps3 fiasco. It ended up working out well for them now but they were close to calling it all quits. I'm pretty new to the Xbox community. Although I had a 360 for a number of years I can honestly say I rarely played it because my life was so hectic. I jumped on XBONE just because I got it for a good deal with that Best Buy trade in offer and decided I needed something next gen anyways.

So far I can honestly say its been a good experience. I'm playing a number of decent titles and I feel like these holiday sales have really made the community swell. I'm still getting a Ps4 this year for XMAS but I can actually say I see myself playing my Xbox much more than I thought.

I agree with alot of those video points tho. The XB1 had a brutal start. If all the system needs is an emulation to play 360 games I feel like they should offer that. Only bad part is that would probably kill all those trade in offers they have been using to bait people in (maybe they could give us that down the line tho, I mean **** we all giving you our 360)

Kmart has far cry 4 and asscreed for $45

If you were to ick up far cry and beat it before the 18tg you could trade it into GameStop for $40 in store credit

 

[shottadru]

A lot of you guys who copped recently are coming in a good time. I am a Day One owner it was rough first few months, wasn't many games. 2015 is gonna be sweet for both consoles. PS just needs an exclusive, like the only reason I would cop a PS4 right now is to play Last of Us again. Thats who is really gonna make PS4 interesting Naugthy Dog, other than that what real reason do you have to play it? I don't follow it as closely so don't judge my ignorance if there is some other fire dropping for PS I failed to mention.

Another 99gamers.com plug.

If you were to trade in far cry 4 at the end of dec., you'd get maybe 60 coins(-$2+ in shipping fees) for it.

I COPPED MY PS4 STRICTLY TO PLAY THE LAST OF US AND METAL GEAR SOLID 5. IT'S BEEN DUSTING UP RECENTLY.

There is plenty of games on both consoles to play. Exclusives or not there is plenty of games.

So please stop with the no games stuff. Everybody has the system the like lets just leave it at that.

Yeah games on both consoles don't sway people. It's your friends and online community. XBL is still a better experience that PSN.

No one is selling anyone here, we are just stating why we like or dislike our Xbox on the Xbox thread.

Y'all doing a lil more than that but it's cool.

The no games thing just gets me I guess. Because it's not true at all.
