Do me a favor. Search on google for NFL fantasy league management and tell me if you find any mention of XBO.

Then return and continue to try and argue this is a selling point. It's a nice feature, but won't push units. Stop fooling yourself here, you're embarrassing yourself. 


THE CONSOLE HAS NOT LAUNCHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MOST WON'T EVEN KNOW UNTIL FOOTBALL IS IN FULL SWING AND SYSTEMS HAVE LAUNCHED. DO YOU NOT THINK OUTSIDE OF THE HARDCORE BUBBLE?

If it isn't in the media, how do you think the mainstream will know of it? It's simply not gaining any attention at all, except to you...do you know how advertising works? Lol

Futhermore, do you think XBO commercials are going to feature games or NFL fantasy football? I rest my case...come back to reality okay?

I saw the Microsoft Xbone advertising this weekend at the NFL celebrity flag football game. They are the official brand of the NFL now. All that money they paid the NFL actually benefited them somehow.

No but when they take a break they will have a xbox one there showing what it can do. All the ESPN shows about fantasy football pics. Do you know how many sports radio stations are out there. The point being they won't talk about it tell it's launched. Football essentially starts next week.

I do advertising smart guy. So you need to come back to reality.

If you don't think this, you are the one that is lost.

Microsoft Woos Sports Fans with Extensive Fantasy Football Content for Xbox One

Microsoft, you have our attention. 

A video-game-mad world sat with eager anticipation Tuesday when Microsoft announced its next console, Xbox One. As we would soon learn, there is indeed a great deal involved to interest sports fans. 

Mashable brings what has to be amazing news for fantasy football owners who were already planning on plunking down a handsome sum to get the console whenever it releases. 

One of the most interesting developments is that the NFL will partner with Microsoft to bring exclusive content to the system as well as to an owner's "tablet and smartphone apps that ties the TV experience in with your fantasy league teams."

In the simplest of terms, users will be able to watch live games and get updates on their fantasy teams all on the same TV screen. 

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell had this to say, via Mashable

From the use of instant replay to the yellow first-down line that has become an important element of the at-home television viewing experience, the NFL is committed to leveraging technology to improve our game for coaches, players and fans. We're thrilled to be teaming with a true innovator like Microsoft to shape the future of the NFL game experience, both on-field and in the living room.

The following video hints at what one might expect from the marriage of NFL coverage and Xbox One's software.

When who takes a break?

"All the ESPN shows about fantasy football pics." This isn't even a cogent sentence, I have no idea what you're trying to say here.

Sports radio shows? Haha, you think the radio shows are going to talk about XBO fantasy league feature? Wow...

"They won't talk about it tell it's launched." This again makes no sense at all unless I substitute the word "until" for "tell." 

"I do advertising smart guy." - This is supposed to lend credence to your non-argument why? You haven't backed up any of your outlandish assertions. Can't even follow half of them because you can't form sentences or use appropriate words.

I'm tempted to report you for failing to proof-read your shit. Try harder.

Xbox One football commercialization has already started. The Xbox One once more is the official console of the NFL. This isn't the first time they've paid the NFL for false perception. Fifa has always sold better on the PS3 worldwide, but you don't see Sony paying EA for preferential treatment there. The highest selling Madden games are still on the PS2 platform.

They talk about fantasy football all the time  and who you should pick.

why do you think so? all the extra stuff they have in the xbox games are in the games because microsoft paid for them. same with earlier releases like garden warfare. same why ubisoft has extra content in some playstation games, why bf3 had the dlc earlier on ps3, why the division has extra content for xbox one and why rockstar and sony have a ps3 bundle.

microsoft and sony pay all the publishers for it, nothing more...

now imagine if all that money actually went to smaller studio's and funding new ones. 

Funding Vanillaware/NIS/Indies would bring in less money than having exclusive DLC for FIFA.

Look at the vita.



They're not favoring either, they're favoring money. If microsoft came up to you and asked to get DLC a week earlier for $100,000,000 would you say no because you like sony too?

yup. my concern as a gamer is if EA can double their profits this year and the next.
