That's great and all, but the question is will the software lineup be as robust in years 7-12 as it did in years 1-6. I bought a 360 largely because of it's great JRPG exclusives in the early years of the console (ie. Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia, Infinite Undiscovery, etc). It was great and I loved my 360. However, the JRPG exclusives just stopped coming all of a sudden after a few years. I think Magna Carta 2 was the last semi-popular JRPG that came exclusively to the 360, and that was in 2009. My 360 has been collecting dust for the past few years outside of Halo 4 and a couple other games. |
It definitely had a priority switch mid gen which was kind of annoying. I had every system and mostly play multiplats anyway so it didnt bother me very much, but for single console owners it was probably very aggravating.
Honestly though, I dont think the x1 will be the same. I think the change in focus all came down to don mattrick taking over the xbox division. With him gone, I think the future of xbox is a lot brighter...

I had all 3 consoles too so it's wasn't a huge deal, although I was a little disappointed that the quantity of both 1st and 3rd party exclusives on the 360 basically took a nosedive after year 4.
I hope you're right about the X1. I have some concerns about Stephen Elop in charge of the Xbox Division. I've heard him speak a couple times and the guy is as corporate as it comes. His track record at Nokia also doesn't make me jump and down with joy. I was also disappointed that Marc Whitten just left MS. He and Phil Spencer were the two guys who were actually relatable to the gamers IMO.
