“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

It wouldn´t actually surprise me if MS upheld the embargo. The problem MS has right now is that they play in to the notion of X1 being weaker by constantly reminding people of how great their games look. It is a sign of uncertainty tht they should let go off. The X1 can stand on its own, anyone that has seen the games realize that they look just as good as PS4 ones, so let the games do the talking.


Of course on its own it will be a great gaming device with great games, an improved controller, strong 3rd party support and hardware way better than 360.

It's the competition that is making them trouble by now.

I actually think that PS4 is no trouble at all for X1. I think back to when MS released Kinect and every fan of PS3 bashed it to pieces. MS didn´t care and showed people the attraction that is with Kinect. I do believe most reviewers would say that MS has the stronger launch library, along with their HDMI in-solution and Kinect while PS4 has the stronger graphics capabilities. In other words, MS can market the X1 on its own merits, but right now they are catering to a fanbase that won´t even buy the X1 in the first place, so there is were I see their faults.



First-party devs seem to be doing better than third-party when it comes to X1. Probably because they have access to the latest tools. If that's the case, multi-plats will be at parity come the second release wave.



The truth will set you free.

We needed your response less than the original post.

Both comments are smug but the original post implies that the scource is a place that constantly looks for negative news to throw at the MS side.

Your post's only implimentation was that you were annoyed at the 1st post.

On the topic, I didn't check but I do know that X1 releases a full week after the PS4. I assume tis is the reason, how much longer is the delay on lifting MS' embargo compared to when PS4's is lifted? Is it also a week or around that? If so I don't see the problem.

^Yes that's me ripping it up in the GIF. :)

I...I dunno. Not gonna call this a Megaton I'm afraid, especially if its not always the case.

Gonna hold out for confirmation from people like DF though.

Yeah, like they say, too much smoke for there not to be a fire. 

I predict epic meltdowns at launch.
