Just to play devils advocate here......

If it looks so good, why are you not buying One in the next 2 years?

Forza 5 looks good but this franchise has been overkilled. 

Dead Rising is struggling to hit 30fps. 

The Dual Shock 4 is also a huge improvement, and has features that Xbone controller doesnt. 

Titanfall is also on 360, so I can play it there.

Halo is declining with 343. I'm more excited for Bungies next game, Destiny. 

Most importantly, the Xbox One is still overpriced and underpowered. For $100 less, I can get a more powerful system like PS4 that will have the superior multiplats and it's own slew of exclusive games. 

DId you read the entire OP or just skip by the reason Im not buying one?

 

  • Your Forza point is irrelevant, because this is a new Forza for a new generation and it looks great. 
  • Your Dead Rising point is irrelevant, because I dont give a shit about FPS (Shadow of the Collosus is one of the best games ever, despite the terrible framerate issues) and the game looks great. 
  • Your DualShock 4 point is irrelevant, because the thread has nothing at all to do with PlayStation and it doesnt need to be mentioned. 
  • Your Titanfall point is irrelevant, because the game is on Xbox One and this is an Xbox One thread and the game's gonna be a lot of fun no matter the platform.
  • Halo 4 is a pretty good game. Its not the best Halo. Its not the worst Halo. Its also having great legs, which shows the consumer quite likes how 343i are dealing with the franchise!
  • Thanks for bringing up Destiny. Destiny is also on Xbox One, it should be quite good with Bungie's history on Xbox.

The Xbox One isnt overpriced. Its priced about right for what you get in the box. And please stop going on about the PS4. I dont care about which console you want to purchase. This is a thread in the Microsoft forum about the Xbox One. Its a positive thread.

Youre welcome.

LOL! So everything is irrelevant and this is ONLY about Xbox One. What you fail to realize is that we are not living in a confined space with limited thinking.

Titanfall being on 360 and PC does affect Xbox Ones value, because you do not NEED an Xbox One to play it. 

Forza being overkilled in the past few years is relevant because people are sick of the franchise. No one is rushing out to pre-order it. The latest pre orders prove that. 

The Dualshock 4 point is relevant, because its Xbone's direct competitor. 

Dead Rising 3 and SotC are completely different games. DR3 is supposed to be action-oriented and ultra violent. So framerate issues will be more bothersome in that type of game. SotC came out on PS2, 8 years ago.... we should've overcome these major framerate problems by now. 

 

The Xbox One IS overpriced. It's $100 more expensive than its direct competitor, while being less powerful. It has Kinect 2.0, but many gamers have no interest in Kinect..... as evident by the NEED for you to even make a "Positive Xbone" thread.

Yeah, this thread about the Xbox One in the Microsoft forum is only about the Xbox One, if you dont like it then here's the door. If you want to talk about something else, make a thread about it. Im not stopping you. Nothings stopping you.

I dont care that the game is on PC and 360. Its a selling point for the One. Its an Xbox One game. It looks fun.

Forza 5 will sell Millions, so I dont care if people are sick of the franchise

The Dualshock 4 isnt relevant, because this isnt a comparison thread. It has nothing at all to do with the competition. It has nothing at all to do with Nintendo. It has nothing at all to do with Sony. It has nothing at all to do with the DualShock 4.

And again, I dont care. I dont care if Dead Rising 3 is 29 FPS. I dont care if Dead Rising 3 is 60 FPS. The game looks fun. Im looking at your avatar and I see The Last of Us. While its a fantastic videogame... It has frame rate issues. It doesnt maintain a solid 30FPS. Do I care? No. I dont care. The game was great.

Frame rate doesnt matter. You can still have a brilliant game, despite frame rate issues.

Are you noticing something here. I dont care, 9087. I dont care.



                            

I get why you're not getting one at launch, £430 is a hefty amount. I was going to wait for a drop but I can't, I need to be playing it this holiday.

I think the Xbox One is actually starting to look like a pretty good buy.

I mean. Im not buying one at launch. And I probably wont be buying one within the next 2 Years. The point Im making is, I can see why people are excited over Microsoft's 3rd foray into our fine industry.

The Xbox One we all hated from a few Months back is no more. The non-Mattrick Xbox One is totally different from the Mattrick-One.

Forza 5 looks really good, I think its the most impressive looking next-gen title. Dead Rising 3 looks like zombie killing nirvana. The controller is looking like a great improvement on the best controller I played with this gen. Xbox Live is looking as strong as ever. Titanfall is looking like so much fun, amid the standard boring FPS titles. Halo will be brilliant. Project Spark looks beyond innovative and you know what? Fable without that giant penis that is Peter Molyneux, should be fantastic.

For me the price is too much for whats on offer at launch, but you can bet your balls that I will jump in at some point in the future.

Enjoy your Xbox One consoles, Microsoft fanbase. Youre gonna be having a lot of fun later this Year.

And kow, maybe... Just maybe, you might finally pass my Gamerscore.

What's the point of this? We are having a Xbox One discussion no need to drag the ps4 in here and how much beter it is.



I'm getting fucking tired of the same Sony fans that always need to shit up every Xbox thread. SIGH



I'm interested in the built-in dev kit. If I can use the retail unit to make games then that could be a major selling point for me.

So people that like Dance and Fitness games aren't gamers?  There are lots of people that like kinect and are looking forwards to what it brings.  Sorry they aren't your basement dwelling "hardcore" ubernerds, but getting gaming to go mainstream is great.

it doesnt work that way in the gaming industry

 

 

Titanfall being on 360 and PC absolutely hurts the Xbones value. Most potential Xbone buyers already have an Xbox 360.... but they dont NEED an Xbox One to play Titanfall since it's already on a console they own. 

Yes. That definitely hurts the One's value. I do not NEED to upgrade to X1 to play Titanfall.
