and Im probably missing tons more, that you wont be able to play on a xbox one, that are comeing to the PS4.

I know saying 'best games' provokes this kind of response...but trust me when I say most users don't want to see this thread become a list war. Stay on-topic..not everything needs to be us vs. them.

Edit: Speaking in general...not taking a side.

And of this laundry list I'd like around four games. From the XBO list I want... the list. It's sort of pointless saying "X has more games" when over half the log seems comprised of modestly popular games. 

Quality over quantity bruh!

Yeah that IS pretty bad. CPU power is way better than X1, but depending on integrated video, with only 4GB of ram and a 500GB (very low areal density = slowwww) is terrible.

They're savable at least. Replace HDD with 960GB SSD (about ~$100 each) and Nvidia 950 (about ~$140 each), combined with a 16GB DDR4 kit (about $65 each), and you'd go from horrible to blazing fast.

Someone needs to be fired for choosing that config, 4GB is inexcusable in 2016.

Even then I don't think you grasp the circumstances. My laptop seems to be slightly better than that PC yet I am using it for an awful lot of stuff and it's rather snappy. Are you sure it isn't the OS?

And yet my XBONE collects dust.  You can call the best games this gen, but they all seem pretty meh to me.  Hell, i've been a huge fan of Halo since forever and even I think Halo 5 turned out to be a box of rocks.

If you don't like MP, you will not like H5. It's campaign was relatively weak. 

You play it for the MP and Firefight mostly. Shit aside, I've heard a lot of people echo your sentiment from the other side as well... 

 

As a whole, I think people missed last gen where the 360 had everything Sony had and their stuff. Now we're back to the technological middle ages where both consoles were vastly different from each other and this pissed everyone off... 

Yes, the sixth generation was awful.

Where did you find this? The US numbers look accurate, though those worldwide sales are lower than I expected if true.

Those were before the brief XBOS boom and before G4. Assuming they were at least as fast, being slightly higher now doesn't seem that bad.

If i remember, it was for the Windows 10 event, or something like that, don't remember the official name : D

That's why i said Vgchartz numbers seems not too bad for Xboxone.

But it's probably the last numbers we will get from MS, Spencer said after all they will not talk about sales anymore, but "active users", "hours played" , etc.

They actually changed numbers for revenue, namely since investors have been telling Satya to discard hardware. Now that their divisions no longer report any actual numbers and instead report revenue only, those same voices stopped complaining, since the numbers ruin the good impression the revenue and purchases give and distort investor perception. 

Or, in speakeasy, because investors might compare them to Sony and they know they will not catch up soon... 

Only problem is that they put revenue for the division and with other products there we can't have any idea of the HW of X1 sales, for that they only say how much active the userbase is.

Quality wise I'm very satisfied with gaming on PS4 and believe most are on X1 as well. And for me six gen was quite good, didn't miss anything. Almost all games on PS2 and the very few GC games I needed to play my friend had and I played there.
