Might not be ideal for you. Idk, are you one of the twenty or so people in this supposed dorm buying supposed Xbox Ones? I don't think so. I won't buy a console if it has a shit lineup, regardless of the hypothetical potential of the console. If I spend $400-500 on a console, I want to be entertained day one so I will buy the one that currently has the most games I want to play. Hence, I will buy an Xbox One first. If it weren't for games like Forza, Ryse, DR3, KI, and of course Titanfall, I wouldn't buy the console and would wait for either to have a good enough lineup.
So these guys supposedly found that "good enough" lineup already. There's nothing wrong with jumping in rather than thinking "oh well hey maybe sony might have some other game in store down the road!" and waiting. It's not rocket science. There is nothing Sony has (announced anyway) in the oven that would compete with Killer Instinct. They have nothing in the oven to compete with Dead Rising 3. That's just the two games the OP mentioned.
If a movie is in theaters that looks interesting to me, I will go see it instead of thinking hey maybe something better will come out in 6 months. Consoles are a little different as the investment is a lot larger, but the logic remains. You want a console right now, nothing wrong with picking what they supposedly believe is the better lineup right now.

This isnt one person. This is a group. Because of this you should expect more conversation. This is of course my opinion. Can you honestly tell me that you think its reasonable that all 20 people just plop money down on a system that they havent even discussed past launch? You say you expect to be entertained from day one but what if (it wont but what if) either of these systems had a drought like the wii u? dont you think that should be flushed out? and discussed? wouldnt that be obnoxious to have a system you bought for one or two games and months later there isnt anything else to pick up when you want to move forward? We know thats not the case. Do they?

Please don't waste our time with baseless assumptions. The only assumption we can safely arrive at here is these or 20 or so supposed people who love playing video games, so that should tell us they know a thing or two about the market and game releases.
Your alternative is they all sit in a circle and discuss future games, even though in the same post you assume they are all completely ignorant on the matter. So STAGE can list to these hypothetical people The Order, MLB, Drive Club, and whatever else for 2014 and they can look at him confused and bored. I really don't see what is so hard to understand about it. They know the libraries of two consoles right now and chose one over the other because they are currently enjoying the hell out of that one. The idea that these alleged people should stop enjoying that console and entertain the idea of buying another console that they know has no games they like, is ludicrous. Hope that helps, no point in discussing it further, you seem committed to being upset over their decision.
