I don't understand why anyone would purchase an xbox one. It has literally nothing going for it and is going to bomb majorly this holiday. Repackaging old halo games fools no one. Halo 5 without bungie who cares. Same thing for gears. I doubt xbone lasts more than two more years.


I plan on buying the XB1 for new IP that is coming out this gen (Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break) as well as the Halos and the Gears.  Some of the multimedia stuff like snap interests me as well.  Hell, I am probably even going to grab a kinect for the non-gaming functionality of it.

Last gen at the beginning I wanted nothing to do with a PS3 for a lot of the same reasons that people are saying they don't want the XB1.  Fast forward to the end of the gen when new IPs on the PS3 flourished and suddenly it was my preferred gen7 system.  A lot can happen in the middle of a gen that, even if it doesn't actually change the order for "winning", can greatly improve a consoles position.
