Well, MS are on a roll lately.

That is your reply? I wonder what the gif for Sony's last decade would be then?


Now that Sony is ahead of MS in game development and sales, that would be inaccurate, but eh.

I also dont understand why all people complain.

I mean when Nintendo basically decided to not have a conventional E3 everyone whined. And when Microsoft made this entertainment-centric presentation to have E3 completely for games they whine that Microsoft dared to not mention games in the entertainment presentation. Seriously this is the best time to release a new DOOM game because people seem to be DOOM ADDICTS right now.

Everyone with brain should be happy that MS took the non-gamer stuff out of their E3 and made it a seperate event because this means that Microsofts e3 compared to Sony's will be 100% games. No more

It's clear you have no idea what you're on about.... That bolded segment of your comment is just... childish?

Money doesn't "do jack" for the X1's success... Again with the "money does jack," It seems like you actually believe that.

I didn't say money doesn't matter in general, You're right you didn't. It's obvious that it won't matter for the Xbox ONE "just coz" then...because you haven't really given any argument otherwise.

Money matters for everything but the X1? WHAT A SHOhttp://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/reply.php?id=161219&quote=5387616CK!!?!?!?!!



Nintendo has loads of money in the bank. Did it help Wii U with sales? Think again.

 It's like you try to reply.... but don't...

WiiU's issues aren't money. The money, that doesn't "mean jack" apparently, is going into developing games. The Nintendo press conference at E3, will be huge and the titles that they still have up their sleeves are system sellers. The Wii is still well ahead of the HD twins. It's on the front page, if you didn't know.

I was referring to both companies as whole.

Yes exactly Money isn't a issue, And yet you say Microsoft is on a roll and made 300 billion. Your contradicting yourself.
I said money doesn't matter if the system isn't appealing. You can have all the money in the world, that doesn't mean your system will sell. Sony had a lot of money and now they don't.

I wish them all the best, but stating that you'll kill a competitor is just... well not even worthy of commenting on.

Then continue. MS has a lot to prove as a console brand. People might not have high expectations out of them but with the money they have theres no excuse for taking three gens to learn how to become a consistent game developer. I have a feeling that since they've invested in internal companies their games will pick up but they will be the usual suspects.
