Forums - Gaming Discussion - It appears that the Xbox One X has no competition according to Phil...

 

The Xbox One X's main competition is...

PS4 Pro 93 31.31%
 
Xbox One S 5 1.68%
 
Switch 28 9.43%
 
PS4 Slim 15 5.05%
 
Other 19 6.40%
 
Phil is an asshole. 137 46.13%
 
Total:297

"I look at Pro as more of a competitor to S than I do to Xbox One X. This is a true 4K console. If you just look at the specs of what this box is, it’s in a different league than any other console that’s out there. When I think about techniques to somehow manufacture a 4K screen like what some other consoles try to do, this is different than that. This is 40% more GPU."

-Phil Spencer, Head of Xbox

PS4pro isnt even competeing.....?
Time for Sony to give it a 50$ price cut.  *Forgot XOX not even up for pre-orders yet, nvm.

Its not competeing... because you cant even buy/pre order one yet.



Need to replace this guy.
Stop saying true 4K.



Yes, we get it. It's the strongest console ever made until a stronger one will come out. Seriously, is that MS only argument to buy it? What about the games? Oh, right. I can play them on PC, too. Or even on the slower Xbox consoles.

Also mind that people had to get a 4k TV. So upgrading from Xbox One S with a HD TV will become even more expensive to go full 4k. Not that there will be some. But it will only be a minority.

It's just... there is no other argument provided by MS to buy their stuff.

Well, he has to sell it some way. The question is will the X1X show a clear difference between the 2 products. The problem for Phil is that the impressive 3rd party games that will play on both may not show a difference since the PS4 is developing platform. Since Sony has the more impressive graphical looking games coming in the next year or 2 MS cannot show the separation between the X1X and the Pro that way either. Maybe remixes of Gears and Halo with 4K assets, 60FPS and improved Ultra level lighting, shadows and other graphical features could sell the narrative. Either way, only the hardcore will go to Digital Foundry or other such sites to see the minute differences for MS case to be relevant.

$499.99 and franchise fatigue for their larger offerings are definitely the one two punch of competition for the XB1X



hahaah to be honest Phil is starting to really talk bu..sh.. nowadays. I really had respect for him in the past, but he starts sounding like he is frustrated for some reason. First the bull about not being fan of Exclusives, why did he then pay Square for Tombraider, they always paid Activision to keep DLC's exclusive for a while, EA exclusives etc etc? I can't find the interview, but I remember him saying that exclusives is very important for MSFT.

He is right that the XBOX one X has more power, but will I care? I don't care, as the games will not have any exclusives (XOX exclusive) and will come to Xbox One, PC (and in almost all cases also to PS4) so I don't have any reason now to buy it! I rather wait until the real next gen will be announced and keep my current Xbox One and PS4 Pro as main console. And if I really want to have a graphical beauty I will play the game on my PC!

this is the guy people says is better than don matrick

To be fair, I think a lot of us now identify as people who THOUGHT he was better but now are starting to think not quite...



"..this is different than that. This is 40% more GPU."


So I guess he thought X1 never was competition for PS4 as well...

Guy is a disgrace. First that "true 4K" nonsense, then "we're not holding back games from other platforms" now this. Does he even hear himself?!
