You honestly think they're convincing reasons?



 

The PS5 Exists.

Why does Microsoft not just pound Sony's game division into dust? They have the money to do that.
I would do that if I had the means to.


Because there are a lot of idiots at Microsoft and I'm one of the biggest Xbox fanboys so it's not like I'm trolling Microsoft or anything.  If Bill Gates had been in charge and Microsoft was hungry like they were back in the day then the console wars would have been over by now and the Xbox brand would be more dominant than even Playstation 2 was.

As for converting Xbox fans I'm sure they're going to grab a fair amount at launch because of the mess Microsoft made in the past year but I'm still of the opinion that Titanfall really is the next big thing and is going to move a lot of consoles and bring back most of the fans that left.  I'm sure someone will say "But what about Killzone Shadow Fall?", well that's where some Playstation gamers start missing the plot and don't understand why Titanfall is getting all the attention.

Go and watch videos for both games and spot the differences.  You'll come back and say how pretty Killzone Shadow Fall is and talk about the particle effects and other shit but that's just what it is, graphical shit.  Nobody is going to care about that after an hour of playing online because it's the fun and freshness that counts.  All the particle effects and others things do is just make the game more busy and leaves a person having to try to ignore it in order to see opponents and keep having fun.  Compare that to Titanfall which doesn't have any of that nonsense and which insteads focuses completely on addictive arcade like fun.

When Titanfall drops next year the fun will be over for PS4 like a party being broken up by police.  You'll see former Xbox gamers selling PS4s on craigslist and trying to secure a Xbox One for that game. 

Anyways that's it in a nutshell.


"it's the fun and freshness that counts"

From everything ive seen on titanfall, it doesnt look fresh to me. it just looks like mechs and parkour added to call of duty.

If it does turn out to be great and sell millions upon millions, it will be released for PS4 anyway because the IP is owned by respawn and its published by EA who will definately look to cash in. Remember how mass effect wasnt supposed to be on PS3?

You forgot the community. I hate Microsoft with a passion, have never touched an xbox controller and have never played any exclusive game and yet right now I would rather buy an Xbox One(I won't, PC master race is already ahead of next gen) before associating myself with *that* crowd. I'm sure that I am not the only one feeling this way. Poster above me is a good example.

Okay, OP: here's another perk of owning a PS4. Does that change your mind?

In fact, now I think that the PS4 will convert all Nintendo fans, too.



3 is the only one that applies to me... but an adapter will probably be made so it may become a moot point.

1 applies to me but not for halo... for gears, and gears seems to be going down the toilet anyways so it may no longer apply.

I gotta agree. PS fanboys are just about the worst people in the world. I shudder when I think of being associated with that crowd. I would rather quit gaming altogether.

Only maybe 20% of the install base of the PS3 and 360 are actual fans of the specific brand. It's the other 80% of each that they are going to be fighting over.



"The PS4 Will Fail at converting all Xbox 360 Fans to Sony."

Why the fuck does this need a thread?!

"friends of mine began to believe that the PS4 will take the whole Xbox Fanbase."

Your friends aren't too bright.

That's hardly exclusive to any one group of gamers (or any single console community). There are fuckwits in every gaming community.

Sometimes I wish I wasn't a Nintendo fan so I'm not associated with "fans" like you. (lol the fuck is that suppose to mean?)

 

Your "reasons" for your loyalties are downright pathetic.
