Nah atleast people have arguments while you only can go so low to complain about those people instead of coming up with an argument. For someone who has been banned so much I expected better.

I dont feel like arguing about it.  But if you want to hear, there really isnt that many WRPG this generation so far.  No big Elder Scrolls game, Witcher III isnt out yet, Fable is later this year, Fallout has no confirmation date yet, same goes to Mass Effect.

There really just isnt many just yet.  What we do know is that PS4 has an install base of 22m and XBO has an install base of 12m.  If you think about that for a moment pretty much every genre is going to sell more on PS4.  PS4 is just a more popular console world wide.  Not in Japan, not in europe, but world wide.

Is this saying XBO isnt popular?  No of course not.  XBO is actually selling very well and its why a game can sell well on two consoles rather than just one.  Even then you can and will expect a marginal difference in sells between the two.  Again, this doesnt mean a game will not sell well on XBO, but it most likely will sell marginally less than PS4.  Even CoD will sell more on PS4.  Thats even when XBO has a bundle.

So there you go.  Doesnt mean that XBO wont sell well, just not as well as PS4.  There however is a fanbase on both

I agree with this.

Tokyo Indie Fest devs make Western Indie devs look like Rockstar or 343i.
Indie scene there is all about mobile games that belong to NES.

but that is totally not the point like I said before. It is not about the installbase. Even here in this thread we have a JRPG fanbase.

Again PS2 dominated Xbox with like 6 times selling better still Wrpg fans would choose for Xbox, and WRPG fans would choose for Xbox 360 but why for Xbox one?  Xbox not getting popular for the JRPG fanbase fine because it is hard for MS to do so but for WRPG fans? Why would MS abandon them aswell?

The reason why WRPG games like Risen and possible Arcania this year skip Xbox one is because MS simply no cares. Ask Maximrace to go to the Larian studios devs who made Divinity dragonis for Xbox 360 exclusive. They will tell him that MS contacted them to get the game on Xbox 360 and have it exclusive like many other Wrpgs like Witcher and Risen.  They will also tell him that this generation MS not contacted them and that is why some Wrpg's will probably not come to Xbox one. 

Sorry I don't understand someone can be so defensive that even losing exclusives from a popular Xbox genre is fine.

What studio are you all most excited to see at E3? Doesnt matter if its First party or third party, who do you all want to see the most?

What do you think genres they will reveal with them?  I think RTS and Decisive Games will for sure be one of them.  Halo Wars or Rise of the Nations would be my guess xD

Hope we get a big blowout on Persona as well as a release date myself.  Still wish they would have done a Vita release as well personally

That's all I was originally saying, people keep complaining about XB1 versions selling less, what do you expect with 7-8 million less install base. It's just that simple, the fact that XB1 software stays within a decent range is good enough.

What I see are the mid tier games starting to skip XBO, if I only played the big ones would be fine... But I play more mid/niche than AAA games.
