Even though it has sold well on Amazon, it seems Amazon has lost its edge in being able to tell how the market is moving. It will be very interesting to see how this plays out. I have said in the past that the Universal Windows Platform would be massive for Xbox, and if they continue to hold on, then I think that is a huge reason behind the push. I know Gears and Forza just came out, but I have not seen any indication tat they are moving hardware, escpeciallly considering the lackluster sales they have had compaired to previous entries. I think the era of the Xbox replacing PC's is happening, and that is a good thing on the mass market side. If UWP is spear heading this XBO resergence, then Sony needs to get on the ball, and start letting a braoder spectrum of apps into the PlayStation ecosystem. They have talked about wanting to use PSVR to turn consoles into the smart device of the home, nw they need to back up those claims. |
UWP? the casuals don't care for buzz words and stuff that does not concern the average consumer. Xbox is besting playstation because of the value factor. You can get a slimmer xbox, with ea access (loads of games straight of the bat) and several games for 299. The xbox comes with a 4k drive and hdr. Then you have the ps4 slim for the same price offering you no value.
