I've said it time and time again I'm not talking about existing XB1 owner, they're not likely to buy multiple XB1's, unless they're buying one for another room in their home or they have another home. Actually read right down to the end of this and comprehend what I'm writing before making another knee jerk response.
As for the system's sales, it's selling now because of the price factor or the crazy holiday deals, coupled with some new releases (be they mulitplats or the odd remaster or an exclusive), those deals most likely fall away in the regular sales times of the year. The price cut was meant to be temporary, so once that goes or the crazy deals disappear that incentive isn't there, if it stays then it'll affect the baseline in a positive way, but you need new exclusives to keep the sales constantly in a better position and those aren't coming for months next year. With the lack of a library building up the XB1's roster of content people can't get elsewhere until far into the year it's not reaching in the slightest to think that people who don't yet have an 8th gen console will be looking at all factors, they'll look at the wider picture and what systems have the games they want, it's completely logical to think that there being new exclusives coming all the time to Wii U and PS4 will mean those system will gain more interest and in PS4's case they don't have to miss out on the mulitplats. This is speaking from the perspective of someone that hasn't yet bought a current generation console.
As for existing XB1 owners, if you're getting all of your multiplats on that system then obviously it's just going to depending on which exclusive library of games suits your tastes as to which other 8th gen console you're going to get, if you want another system. I haven't once said that XB1 isn't worth buying, just that it doesn't have enough games for me to buy one next year, being that I play the multiplats on PS4, so I'm looking at exclusives and which line-up interests me, which line-up has the most for me to sink my teeth into. |
You're doing it again. How can you speak for people? Like everyone's tastes and opinions are the same as yours. You can't and you are assuming guessing hoping(maybe not) they won't. It's just your opinion and you're trying to use it to generalise. It's why I'm saying you have no idea what you are talking about.
You are putting so much weight on exclusives it's crazy.
