best part of the article, and all that needs to be said really...

"So make no mistake; Microsoft is gearing the Xbox One as an all-in-one set-top box, that just so happens to have some of the most powerful and robust video game hardware under the hood."

whats wrong with that?


Funny enough it doesn't. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-spec-analysis-xbox-one

 

It didnt say "the most powerful", it said "some of the most powerful".

But it ISN'T the most powerfull and it won't have the most amount of varied indie and exclusive games either. So what is it's selling point exactly? A glorified source button on a tv? 

Nobody is claiming it is.......only that it is among the most powerful.

The exclusive part is pure speculation and you shouldn't talk like its fact. Varied? Just because fps doesnt get the spotlight on PS consoles, doesn't change that fps are the highest selling genre. Just saying. XBLA is extremely varied, but right, its not retail so you don't count it. Sigh

Its a all-in-one media box, not that I had to tell you (maybe I did). Whether that appeals to you or not doesnt concern me...but don't write it off to people that wouldn't mind having that convienence.

The PS3 and the 360 are an all media box!!! News has just come in that Micrsoft will not allow Indie devs to self publish their games. This means, they are going to flock (they already are) to the Ps4 and to a lesser extent the Wii U (they also allow Indie devs to self publish).  

Its a even better media box.....I hope you are aware of the things One can do over a 360 (or maybe you got caught up in the negative bandwagon you didn't see the actual features?)

I read the indie news, MS will still get their indie games. Its not like its gonna dry up. To think that would be very naive.

Oh they will get Indie games alright, but not the Majority of them by the sounds of things. Yeah I watched the conference of course and I was not excited in the slightest except for a new forza but we all knew that was coming. They spent more of their time talking bullshit about tv and NFL and of course.....Halo Tv series. Nothing to do with games for 70% of the conference. 

Actually rumors said it was PGR5. Forza 5 was a bit of a surprise to be honest.

You know E3 is 2 weeks away. Like, 2 weeks. 14 days approx. It isn't a long gap. MS specifically said the games will be reserved for E3.

Think about it....an E3 with no COD, sports, and feature presentations taking up valuable time....MS allready got those points out of the way. I mean, cmon, even you can see that logically, their E3 will be better with the fluff allready talked about.

People aren't really upset about the lack of games. Sure they are complaining about it same as the shitty Xbox One name. And how "TV" was focused on more than games.

But the real reason for the butthurt is the used games, required internet connection, and kinect B.S. 

Sure Microsoft may have set the bar so low prior to E3 that it will be easy to go above it in 2 weeks. Honestly not sure what games they could show at E3 that will make people not care about the real butthurt
