One last thing and it is hypocritical.People forget that before and during the launch all the way up until the death of Kinect (thanks to the PS4 crushing it) that games were not even the second reason why people were buying or going to buy an X1.
I remember clearly many people (a lot here) saying that Kinect,TV features,Windows 8,smart glass and other none gaming features made the Xbox more than a gaming console and made it a better value than the PS4,because the PS4 was just a "gaming" console while the Xbox was a complete entertainment system ala "all-in-one".
Now people want to talk only about games as if from day one the PS4 has not been selling primarily because of games,which is why the XboxOne is so far behind despite getting two price cuts -thank Sony for that.The last thing,everything MS has so called turned around was only because of sales and the fact that they copied Sony word for word.
It amazes me how people ignore these facts.MS literally mimicked all of what Sony has said and been doing since the PSX.The Xbox still lacks an identity as a brand and MS still only has the same games to look forward to.The last notable Xbox game was Halo 4 and the next is Halo 5.On the other side Sony had The Last of Us (best game of the generation) and afterwards Bloodborne,which is the best game currently of the generation exclusively.LOL! I'm done. |
XBox lacks a identity is where you lost me , XBox is Master chief, Halo, Gears, XBOX LIVE(defined online gaming), Kinect may have failed but still gives you a opportunity to change up gaming habits. You can also say, Sony copied XBox just as much. So not sure what your getting at.
Yes Sony literally didn't have to say shit but, NO DRM and they won. Xbox really fugged them selfs with that one. However NA and UK are still in the fight NA will be taken because of three releases, FORZA, HALO 5, TOMB RAIDER, most likely a HD remake of Gears. I wouldn't underestimate that line up.

Xbox as a brand is generic and boring.From the logo,to the name Xbox (sounds like a code name for a console instead of a real console name),Master Chief is a generic character as is Marcus Phoenix and that is a fact.Xbox Live did not define onloione gaming as PC defined online gaming and Live came fromt he Dreamcast.The Eyeztoy gave birth to Kinect,so Sony already allowed the player to change up gaming habits as you call it.You keep mentioning NA and UK as if the rest of the world is irrelevant lol.
Nothing is guaranteed and Halo never sold the Xbox beofre,it was COD and GTA that sold the 360.What did Halo do for the original Xbox? Nothing.Forza has been flopping for years now and TR has a bigger fanbase on PlayStation and will go to the PS4/PC anyway.Really the Xbox does nothing that stands out period and now PSN is better than Live this generation.It has always been a generic PlayStation,which is what MS said themselves they wanted it to be like the PlayStation.Understand now?Not saying the console is crap or anything,just not exciting or original for the most part.
