Using launch games as anything other than short lived entertainment is silly, everyone who has been around for a while in gaming knows that games improve vastly over the course of a console's lifespan.

There used to be a lot of things to complain about with the One, MS have gone and fixed the worst things though so there's really no reason to be whining so much any longer. Some still will though, and will keep on doing after its release and well into its life cycle.


Very true. that was really the point I wanted to make, also that kinect 2.0 is not to pushed off so litely.

Also as Xbox fans, I normally see Sony fans posting a majority of negative article's for Xbox One. Now the internet has way more Playstation fans then Xbox but we should take a page out of their book. You won't find as many articles because of the make up of the internet but be sure if you see something to rush over, post it! This site needs some balance. I usually only post MS articles but be sure I will be posting Sony news. As that is what always happens here.


Did it ever occur to you that most xbox news are bad? 

you claim that this site has become a pit full fanboy dirty fighting. Your solution? ask people to bring more

No just equal out the threads... Most news is bad because of all the sony fans on the internet. Most of my friends never get on gaming websites and when i shared a link with my bro and the poll went to xbox one, people said I cheated. WHAT? no my friends decided to voice in, thats it.

Why are you going off-topic in your own thread?


This is not off topic, it's saying that a great way sony fans use Xbox One as a punching bag is posting non-stop negative news about xbox one, True or not.



So at one point your talking about how the Xbox One is a punching bag in your opening post describing the reasons etc...

Now your going on about how Sony fans are only posting negative news about the Xbox, I could flip that and say Xbox fans are only posting positive news about the Xbox. I like reading news so if I get one perspective from Sony fans and the other from Xbox fans that's great.

Then you go on and insinuate that Xbox enthusiasts should make negative threads about Sony, I mean go for it if your so enraged by the 3 or 4 Sony enthusiasts that only make threads negatively about the Xbox. If that's how you cope with things over ignoring em' I'll gladly read your perspective.

And don't pretend that Xbox fans don't post negative news or make negative threads about the playstation, I've seen it numerous times.

Nonetheless OP what's your article about how Sony fans are the only ones using the internet or how users like to trash the Xbox One?

The main challenge for Kinect now is being taken seriously, allthough the first one sold very well, it was never really used to do anything useful or worthwhile in gaming and was mostly a novelty for selling very casual titles.

The possibilities are great though, not just in gaming but through social networks, voice and gesture UI and even security measures (face-scan to log into services etc, quicker than typing a password on a gamepad and a lot safer).

We'll see what they can do this time around, one has to assume they have big plans for Kinect 2.0 since it's a part of the standard package and completely mandatory.

XBO can hold its own. Look at Ryse. Shit looks incredible. Wii U on the other hand .....



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

I just watching an old Simpsons episode, Homer just said: i buy your mapple but only if you charge me much money for stuff google ofters for free.

That somehow reminds me of Microsoft.

Seems that this site has turned into a bashing fest for all fans opposing Xbox One. Most talk on this site has been focused on Multi-plats, yet thats about where the story ends. Xbox has done a great job on first party and has in my opinion, a way better launch line up. So the focus obviously has been on Launch Multiplats that are rushed out. Not only rushed but on a new systems. No one is denying that PS4 has more power, but by how much?  This site would have you believe Xbox One is actually the atari 2600. However Ryse has yet to be outshined.

 


May I ask which first party titles are you referring to ? I can only think of Forza 5.

Ryse, Dead Rising 3, killer instinct, lococycle, crimson dragon, powerstar golf, zoo tycoon are all technically first party (i.e. published by Microsoft).

I actually think Xbone gets off with a free pass with too many things, I think I'll start posting some news about it, and they will be negative only for the Xbox fanboys, they will be objectively true, not negative.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

All your points are true for PS4 too... so the game will continue.

And no... most Xbone games will never be 1080p just because 32MB eSRAM is not enough... there will be exceptions of course.

http://www.redgamingtech.com/xbox-one-esram-720p-why-its-causing-a-resolution-bottleneck-analysis/

BPP = Bytes Per Pixel (wikipedia link on color depth)
8 BPP = 15.82MB
16 BPP = 31.64MB
20 BPP = 39.55MB
24 BPP =47.46MB
28 BPP = 55.37MB
32 BPP = 63.28MB

All above figures are using 1080P (1920×1080) and without Anti-Aliasing.
