Maybe you should reread my comment. I said that we need a mixture of cartoony and mature stuff.

Anyways I don't like shooters all that much. I like action-adventure, hack n slash, arcade racing and sim racing a lot more. Simply asking about great storylines and brutal action in games doesn't mean I love shooters. Stop generalising stuff.

Anyways publishers like SCE, EA, Ubisoft, Take-Two etc also come up with new stuff every now and then.


I did read what you said. However, fair enough.

Though I do hope you can recognize that your comments about Nintendo and their games is also generalizing to a great degree.

Ninendo games are like what I've said. Regardless they may have good gameplay, but I wouldn't be bothered to find out.

I think Microsoft has a chance to take Sony and Nintendo out this coming gen.  Just my 2 cents with how M$ is going a totally diffrent approach to gaming; which can dissrupt both Sony and Nintendo's future plans.  Discuss.


They have the potential to capture the US and other regions with top tier internet connections. They are letting the other two have anywhere that's not up to par in that department, however.



Halo 5 was announced and no one really cared, so i'd love to know what exclusives you have in mind that could possibly have it dominate the generation.

This is seriously messed up!!! What's up with all this unwanted hate for Microsoft lately?

I know why you started this thread. You wanted the chance to use the full range of all your awesome emoticons. They are really cool.

Also you should be really proud, and pleased, that you added the inspired option of "themselves?" I don't think I've seen a poll on this site with so many people actually voting. You should congratulate yourself on this achievement. Is there an emoticon for congratulations? Without that option you would have been lucky to get 50 people responding to the poll.

To actually answer the poll though, MS, after seeing how badly Nintendo shot themselves in the foot, definitely set their sights on Sony. They see Sony as the general entertainment threat. MS would much rather have a 2-horse Nintendo/MS race than a 2-horse Sony/MS race.

Everyone is saying that Microsoft is feeling the third generation curse and being arrogant and that's why they are changing policies and price is high. Doesn't this "curse" mean you won two generation though and not being second place(or almost second) twice?
I don't see how they can win after E3.



 Go Team Venture! I still don't get the Wii, PS Move,  and Kinect.

Bad press created by Sony biased journalist in the gaming industry.  Core will be core but MS is fightng for a larger market that includes mainstream; and breaking out the image of game consoles as toys and part of everyday living. It's just ahead of it's time.  Also those hating on the X1 are pirates that one to give them bad publicity b/c it curbs their illegal activities!!! I personally have no problem with the being on and who here doesn't have internet connection?  Nowadays broadband is more prevalent than cable...Sheeesh!!!

 

You think the Gaming industry Journalist's are biased, every single Being on the face of this Earth has a bias towards something. But what the funny thing is, is that the American Media for years now have biased towerds the xbox and MS, not only are most Media franchises partners with MS, but MS is also an american company so in other words the media has been backing an "AMERICAN" product.
And if you think it is ahead of it's time, well then might I remind you of the PS3, which was also ahead of it's time with Blu-Ray and the cell Processor, and that console also had a fair share of trouble for being ahead of it's time. But a better example would be ... you guessed it the Dreamcast, a great console that ultimatly failed, because why? It was ahead of it's time, and Just because a Console is ahead of it's time does "NOT" make it a good console
The thing with combating piracy is a complete load of BS, there will always be the pirating of games, and the best way to fight it is to get recognition and not punish the consumer for the fault of pirating games.
And the last thing is that it's fine if you dont have a problem with the Online requiremnts, but the Majority of the world does not have a stable Internet Connection, sure its more relevent in developed country's but what about people who dont live in those countries and what about the military serving overseas in different regions weather it be with internet or not the xbox will be region locked, so they would not be able to play a console they paid for.
You really could not show your colors more proudly, mmk then.



Oni-link you're drunk log off and make no more threads
Or you're trolling, which would make sense, since you are known to have an anti Sony agenda, which shows by your responses so far, and the sad thing is you tried to cover up your bias by throwing Ninty in their but you (or any other person) didnt even attempt to say how Ninty would be taken out. So that tells me YOU dont even believe what you were saying, which is even more evident when you opened up your OP with nothing, utterly nothing. You have to at least try.

THe idea of MS taking out anyone is laughable and anyone who truly believes that, is a few clowns short of a circus. Even if they take out Sony by some divine intervention, you still have Ninty and Sony didnt even take them out with PS2 and Xbone isnt going to get anywhere near those numbers, hell it probably wont even get to 360 numbers. Its already getting beat by PS4 and neither system has released yet, plus Wii U has a head start. Hell Ninty doesnt even need a home console to serve MS. The 3DS has been beating 360 for months now, by a large margin.

Get back on your meds.



Nintendo is taking themselves out. While I don't think MS can take Sony out I think the Xbox One will sell perfectly fine.
