Microsoft’s Xbox One seems to be one console which usually needs a huge sized patch for most of its games on day 1. The two recent games that come to mind are Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark and Sniper Elite 3.

huh?! that doesnt make sense! its not the consoles issue its the devs issue, how are they seriously pinning this on the xbox one?

PS4 has large updates too but not as large as X1's. Even X1 exclusives have had huge updates. 

we really shouldnt judge by launch tittles, because those were a special case for both PS4 and XB1 were hardware wasnt finalized until a few months before launch and software want finished by then either. however, a day one patch isnt the consoles fault, its the devs fault. yes, installs are very slow on XB1 thats true, and it is a problem, but the XB1 can run a game without a day one patch if the game didnt have one, so if there is a day one patch, its certainly entirely the devs decision to have it. 

I agree, but its still a big disadvantage of owning both the PS4 and X1. And some of these updates are actually just DLC. Microsoft should make some rule that stops developers from releasing updates that are just DLC.
