Do any of you folks know what viral marketing agencies do? What i see going on here reminds me of whats going on behind political campaigns. It's not only about fronting the company your agency is payed to front (political party) but also about slandering potential rivals (competitors).

You only have to plant the seed in order to make the peasants go wild. In this case, its easy because of X360's red ring of death problems. When they plant enough doubt among early adopters in this case, it can hurt sales.

I think someone is playing dirty here:)

Or maybe.. just maybe... making games, console hardware and OS software is hard work :)

Of course there will be issues... the aim is to be the one with the least issues on launch day.

Problem is one of two things tends to happen when there is bullying. A. Bully wins and a person kills themselves or lives depressed and self conscious or B. person being bullied shows up with a gun and shoots up a school.

Constant bad press can ruin a console, I mean just look how easy it is for people and developers to rip on the Wii U and Vita.

Both are good systems well at least the vita is and the Wii U has Mario yet both have no one buying them do not let that happen to you Xbone

Hehe indeed it will. If it works the internet might melt, if the consoles fail then the internet and the userbase will melt. So its a no win situation :)

Lets help these neogaf users start new rumors guys. I am bad at creating them.

Xbox One controllers are failing and not responding well due to cheap construction and materials.  This is why Kinect is being forced because they know the controllers will break and you'll have to use Kinect to play games.

So says CBUTT!!!


Absolutely true! Since someone said it, it must be real and nothing MS says will change that!

Seriously, posts like yours serves no purpose and doesn't help conversation. They are rather quite annoying really

those are some good rumors guys
Just in: Xbox one controllers will only work 1 foot away from the console.



Did you know ps4 only supports a 2.4 wireless signal?

The xbox one supports a wireless adapter capable of 2.4 - 5.0ghz.

The ONLY next gen console to do so.

You're right, sorry. This whole forum is bothering me for quite some time, don't worry, I'll stop posting(and specially looking) at these kinds of threads.

I don't want you to do that. Instead, give us your opinion relative to the subject. Give us examples of why people are wrong/right.

you do realize he and the other quoted were being ironical, trying to create fake rumors to help the tools on neogaf to generate original rumor content....

like i.e. : I have heard kinect works best if you eat spicy doritos... the IR camera focuses better on your hands and face that way using the heat of the spicyness....

 

see silly things like that....
