Learn to control your emotions, is all i can suggest to you.


Im not controlling myself?  How so?  I feel my response to the thread was rather objective, informative, and trying to hint at him that he needs to do the research rather than asking a site that has a lot of over excited fans (I do believe this).  And yes i felt i needed to step in for murph as it appears you were jumping onto murph for very little reason and kind of hypocritical telling him he is making assumptions when you were doing the exact same thing.

When im being emotional youll know it as im sure you are aware.  For the posts in this thread no.  Ive said it before but ill say it now.  Im fine with you a lot of the time :)  Ihave my problems with you but you have moments when youre pretty cool and down to earth as well.  So no worries on that issue.

As you know im a big fan of BananaKing as well but just like everybody else i will post with him seriosly on occasions just as i would do with anyone else.  In the end i still stand outside his window at night ;)  VGC is my serious side.

Would you like me to go AFK again so you can do so?
:P



You have a gaming pc, a ps4, and a wii u. Why would you need an XBONE?

Because you need it all! You seem like a "collector." I say if you have the money, go for it. Unlike Wii U it at least has enough non gaming feautures to get used between the exclusive releases.

Im pretty sure it says that TitanFall is on PC and that he doesnt know about any of the other exclusice, which i mentioned this to you in the first post i made.  DId you try and ask him about what type of games he is interested in?  Nope.  Did you ask him what TV he is using? Nope.

As i previously said, SOny fans will say no and Xbox fans will say yes(in most cases).  I see very little of people actually asking him about stuff or giving them their experiences.  Jmurph actually gave his experience and even though he may have assumed that the OP is using a specific TV you arent doing any better by assuming he doesnt have one of TV's.  

This is the reason these threads are bad in the first place.   Some honest comments but also some propaganda comments as well. Not saying yours is but you sure didnt even try and see what the op is interested in or actually try and answer his/her question objectively.

It isn't up to me, or you, or anyone else, to teach OP about the exclusives, thats what games reviewers are paid to do.
If OP doesn't want to put in the time to learn about them to begin with then either he does not care much for the little hes seen of them, but again, im going off of the posts he made in my response, saying he shouldnt, and should stick to PC if the only thing he knows that interests him is titanfall, assuming its good when its released.

Sure, we can suggest games, but suggesting them is going to result in either the suggestion being shot down or otherwise.

It's not like OP will be completely blind of all things Xbox One, it's practically impossible to be in to gaming, and own a next gen system and gaming pc and not come across media regarding the xbox one titles, people generally dig in and learn more if what they skim through grabs their attention.

But then, this isn't so much a response to this particular topic at hand, or the matter of asking questions or not, more over it's simply a kneejerk reaction to your particular distaste for me and my attitude, and your assumption that i'm a "sony fangirl", as you made so clear in your above post but will no doubt claim otherwise.

The are other things as well, of course, less seen by the common poster, but there regardless.

Learn to control your emotions, is all i can suggest to you, and if you want to continue that topic, then by all means do so on irc or in PM, rather than in responses on the forums.

As for the "you don't need one" part of my comment, videogames are a luxury, an optional luxury that nobody needs, theyre simply things we "want", if he needs to post and ask to be convinced to buy one in the first place, then he doesn't have a strong enough desire of his own to warrant buying one, yet.


I was pure PC gamer in all of 2011, 12, and 13 until PS4 got me reinterested in consoles. Playing on consoles is nice PC is for most things but there is something about being able to buy a game put it console and play does it for me. Dont have to worry about drivers, viruses and such.



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

Not to start a whole new topic but, given the ability to turn every retail xbox one in to a development kit, be it, with some restriction, I can see, at some point at least, someone attempting to write an xbox-one specific virus or malware.

Doubt that's possible. Microsft is still going to require people to register with the ID@XBOX program to use the features. Some one tries publishing a virus and they're getting sued a million times over.
