I think we're doing pretty good with over 8,000 posts, we've already passed Nintendomination, they only have 3,000 some posts. Playstation Nation has over 17,000 posts though and Vita has got almost 40,000 though :o

It's crazy, but you have to realize they started that thread in 2011. With all the hype around the Vita, and the Vita has a very passionate online following, especially here. It's impressive, but it has been here longer than the PS Nation and XBO Nation. I'm suprised the Nintendo thread doesn't have more, but a lot fo their posts get put up on the main page.

We need to get more regulars on this thread, it's mainly like 9 or 10 of us keeping it alive. I know there are alot more Xbox fans than that on this site, I see Xbox fans in other threads that just don't post here for some reason. I wish we could lure them into this thread somehow and keep them here. As the smallest fanbase on this site of the big 3, we need to band together to get through this period of anti-Microsoft sentiment.

You make a good point, but I feel the people who do not post here that are Xbox fans just enjoy brawling with the Sony crowd, or do not want to be part of a singular thread.

Let's see we have: Ryuu, Jay, Seece, you, me, endimion, jmurph, Ignoble, ironman, and a few others who I inevibly forgot :(

I wish we had more users now that you mention it... Just went back a few pages and it really is just like, us 9...

Edit: Apologize to that sly dig at Nobleteam, force of habit. And i fogot our mod, yo-john!

Ugh, Pachter, I don't know how that I guy has held down a job, my predictions turn out more accurate that his usually. He's got a horrible track record, I don't know why anybody considers him credible. The worst thing Microsoft could do at this point is unbundle the Kinect, that would mean Microsoft would have to give up their dream of Kinect features in most games, and it would alienate those of us like myself who bought the Xbox One with Kinect because they liked with Microsoft's dream for the Kinect. Microsoft would be better off dropping the price down to $400 with the Kinect and taking a loss on each console sold in the hopes of making that money back with accessory, Xbox Live, and game revenue.


He's terrible at some predictions but he's been known to be right.

 

Here though... What an idiot. It's outpacing most consoles ever right now in terms of sales. He's managed to spin it into something negative.

Probably less than that =P Nsanity has left, Wasn't Toastboy a xbox fan? He left a while ago but never posted here anyway, Kowen is currently banned, Sometimes I see random xbox fans outside posting in other articles and never in here also and then see them get banned xD, They are like the soldiers dealing with the crap while we sit in our cosy thread giving them a morale boost, They probably lurk around and see the good news which encourages them to fight even more...Loll

Maybe we will get more =P I used to lurk around here without a account then I just decided to make one after reading some off this thread, Commented here firsT I think but I'm fine with the current number off people =P We are keeping this thread pretty active considering the small number

I forgot Nsanity too. And lol, I miss Toastboy's threads, they were always entertaining. I don't think he ever posted here though.

I was the same way, the only reason I made an account was honestly to be apart of this thread. There's like no other smart Xbox community out there. Youtube? no thank. IGN... nope.

Damn, weekends really are slow news days xD

Nsanity is taking a break, for how long? Possibly forever. He's the best news guy ever though. Sorry Ryu!

I hope he'll be back by E3, but it could be forever like you said. If Ryuu keeps up his momentum I feel he can be the new Nsanity, within a few years mind you.

Come on how could you forgot our super warrior selnor???? Had to come out of sleep just for that damn it....



@Noble360 - Your choice man. PS4 will most likely have a bigger JRPG library during its lifetime but my guess is most JRPG games are going to be on PS3/Vita/3DS for the next year.

The good news is PS4/XBO will be announcing some JRPG games soon. And plus if youre like me youll end up buying both PS4/XBO eventually. So for me i'd buy the one that you feel has a better year for 2014 and then buy the other one later on.

Ryuu for president gets my vote. Though id have to nominate Shika, Slade, Murph, and seece as well

Guys I'm starting to have doubts about if I should get the PS4 or Xbox One first. I don't want to make a thread about it so I'll just post my question here. Should I go for PS4 or X1 first? I feel established on Xbox and love Halo, Gears, Forza and I'm looking forward to Quantum Break and Sunset Overdrive along with Titanfall. But I really love JRPG game which I think will be better on PS4 in the long run. Ok that's all I don't want to make this a gigantic wall of text you don't want to read.

Kind of a late response but I'd say get the One. Sounds like you're looking forward to a lot of the exclusives, plus you're a Halo fan like myself. If you need to scratch the JRPG itch you can play the PS3 or the main JRPGs that are coming to the Xbone like KH3 and FFXV. When you get a PS4 later there should be some nice JRPGs out by then.

I've always wondered, wasn't there a previous XB Nation thread? I thought Sales was the original poster and that got locked, or deleted and then you made your new one. Or is all that wrong...
