Why Sonyfanboys have to constantly make shittstorms and crap threads about competitors every day? They really take my whole enjoyment for this next console generation.

Why they can't just be happy about the games they get and be happy for the other gamers on other consoles and for their games they get?

PS4 fanboys should make insted of all the crap blogs blogs about games like Ryse where they appreciate that it is a really nice looking interesting game and whis xbox fans a good time with the game and they should make bolgs about wiiu's Super Mario 3D World where they wish WiiU guys a awesome time with the game.

This would be a nice community where I really would love to be part of, enjoying the own games like Infamous second son it looks amazing and be happy for the others too for their awesome games.


Why do you have to enter those threads? Just ignore them, or stick to xbox.com, I'm sure everyone there is agreeing with each other, rainbows, Ryse and so on.

Why do Xbox fanboys always have to complain so much? It's really annoying. Always playing the victims card. I wanted to get a Xbone this gen. Ok I didn't, there are better alternatives. But after those few recent months I'm sure I won't ever get it. I never want to be a part of the community that part are Xbox fans from this site and I've met on the internet.


Its not about everyone has to have the same opinion, its about appreciating good games even if they come out for a console you don't buy or you buy later. Gaming is all about good games, if Halo5, Ryse, Quantum Break or Super Mario 3D World would come out for Playstation 4 every playstationfanboy would hype the shit out of it and would love them. Why you playstationnerds can't just be happy about the games you get and be happy for the other gamers on other consoles and for their awesome games they get?

Give me some numbers OP, or change the misleading title to "Xbox one preorders cancelled due to outrage on twitter".
Otherwise I feel it's safe to assume this thread is in response to that other premature titled thread that had to do with PS4's being cancelled...

I don't think this would have been posted if there hadn't been those nonsense threads about PS4 cancellations

They will get picked back up by people who cant wait to get their hands on some next gen! I know I cant freaking wait.

By who I am.

 

Im not saying X1 will outsell PS4 by any means but suggessting the X1 is taking large scale cancelations is blatantly false. In fact its quite the opposit.


Glad to hear THE TRUTH! :D (For anybody who doesnt know who this man is, he is a super secret agent at gamestop)

But yeah the  OP makes a lot of these threads so yeah.  Any ways glad to have you back as I still consider you one of VGC's best members

you gto to be a stupid gamer to cancel your preorder cause the launch games are rushed and don't meet the 1080p. Seriously what have gamers become. What happened to simply enjoy a game regardless on how it looks.?


In the same logic you can ask what the future holds iif games are showing this much difference in multiplats at launch already. PS4 can do it at launch, why not xbox one? 

Its not being a stupid gamer, but rather being a smart consumer with standards. $500 for a console which doesn't garantee 1080p is not justified the price, $300 maybe. 

 
You can say xboxone full potential will be unlocked later when the devs familiarised themselves with the system but that goes for the PS4 too. 

Difference in BF is very small and i can easily say Ryse alone can comepete with games like KZ and infamous .. That game alone proves XO is not as weak as people claim it to be. Its obvious that XO version of Ghost was rushed just to meet the deadline . If given more time i am sure it could have easily targeted 1080p. Have console gamers these days become graphic whores that which machIne to buy at launch is determien on how  many games can do 1080p at launch? What happen to the old days ,, where its all about gameplay and about having fun rather then how many pixels it can push lol.  It seems like people have forgotten about the early days of teh PS3 wher the multiplats difference for teh first years were huge . everythign to  unplayable fram rate, resoution , textur detail, blurry  , lower AA and so on and the machine was 600 at launch. Despite all of that ,, lot of gamers still bought the machine  at launch. At least with XO its playable and the graphics can hold its ground against the PS4   and the difference in multiplats is neglible at best. The package you get at 500 with XO is really good as theres potential with what you cna do with OS and kinect . Yeah i know alot you hate kinect but  you can't deny its potential. It just needs someone to make a proper game thats not casusal and thats not dancing lol.

"You can say xboxone full potential will be unlocked later when the devs familiarised themselves with the system but that goes for the PS4 too. " Sure you can say that ,, but to deny the fact that XO is a competitor  to the PS4 because of launch games unable to push X amount of pixels,, just shows pure ignorance and fanboyism. A true gamer is someone who can enjoy games that the  platforms provides without caring how many pixels its pushing :D 


You seem to forget that the PS3 was being outsold by the 360 when it was at $600 with all those problems you mentioned above. There is no deny that kinect has a lot of potentiel. But until that potentiel is unlock, I just don't see myself buying it yet and specially not at $500.

"A true gamer" for me is someone who hold at least 2 gen system and maybe 1 Handled if you can afford it.. Otherwise you are just a regular gamer.

I didn't forget about that . I was talking about the multiplas being inferior by a huge margin on teh ps3 in teh first few years of its launch and how that , it still didn't stop peopel from buying their consoles,, even if it got outsold by xbox 360 initially.  Was the ps3 weak in power because of that ?? I don't think so as shown by TLOU and UC3. What i am trying to say is  that ,, these are launch games and are bound to have technial problems as they are forced to meet launch deadlines . Plus as you an see neither consoels are fully ready at launch ,, based on a number of features that won't be available at launch. Fair enough as you are entitled to your opinion. From what they have shown ,, is good enough for enough ,, heck what you can do with killer instinct ,ryse and forza is pretty interesting as well. I like when companies try somethign bold and go out of the gamers comfort zone . It brings new creative ideas as just standard gaming like what the ps4 offers can get boring from time to time :P
Agree with your quote lol. I was tryiing to be fair as not everyone can afford all consoles and all handhelds lol. It Should be " true gamer"  is someone who can afford all gen systems and handhelds and can enjoy gaming equally regardless who has more power :P. That way you are not biased towards a console.

Yes! Even more generalisation! Love it.

The only I actually saw from the listed is Ryse, cause Xbox fanboys are hyping the shit of it like it's the second coming and there are dozens of threads so it's hard to miss. And it looked very pretty but horrible, don't know if it changed, it was like two months ago. The others would probably be hyped, they are big hitters.

And I am happy about the games we get, that's why I stick to Playstation, I don't care about other consoles or gamers, so you know, wrong adress here. Your generalisation does not involve me apparently, and I guess 90% of other Playstation users, but stick to your opinion, I'm glad you'll get an Xbone instead, I've seen your earlier posts, and yeah I would prefer it that way.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Raven722 on 31 October 2013

While I have no doubt that cancellations have happened over recent revelations of X1's resolutions, I doubt that it's substantial enough for anyone to be concerned. Keep in mind that during launches, the people who are most often purchasing these consoles are hardcore fans who don't care and children who don't know any better asking their parents to buy them for Christmas.



Nem on 31 October 2013

This is to be expected of microsoft. Canceling a pre-order because of it is dumb. I thought the people buying X1 already knew what to expect of MS and were fine with it.



Veknoid_Outcast on 31 October 2013

A few tweets from strangers threatening to cancel pre-orders = mass exodus of X1 consumers? The thread title is misleading and inflammatory.

I've become so embarrassed of these threads. One, because so many are using things like pixel count and exclusives as ammunition in a pointless and self-destructive "console war" and two, that so many believe pixel count determines a game's playability, or, even worse, greatness.

I'm not getting an X1 at launch, but I definitely sympathize with those that are, bombarded daily by threads meant to insult their taste and impugn their good judgment.

And yes, I know that all fan bases are guilty of such behavior, but that's not a compelling reason for this "eye for an eye" mutual destruction.



Blood_Tears on 31 October 2013

I can't wait till both of these consoles release. I'm so tired of the over used "Pre-order cancelled line".
