This site is not nearly as bad as many others. Be thankful fits no gaf or n4g. My main problem is that this is spilling over into my real world non hardcore gaming site going friends. I had a discussion a week ago about the bone spying on you, not being able to own, trade games and whatnot. It upsets me because I think most people I know are dropping xbox and going Sony and I dont game on Sony since they screwed me.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

negative xbone articles turn out facts. negative ps4 articles turn out false. no need upset about weak console.

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).  


Published by Microsoft does not mean MS first party.

yes, it does actually.  You are confusing developers and games.  A game published by a platform holder is technically considered a first party game, although the developer may in fact be a third party, the game itself is first party.  That is how it is commonly known.  

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_developer


Even if you are "technically" since you like the word, right, and I wouldn't use wikipedia as a reliable source for technical jargon. And the fact that already two people say you are wrong shows that it may rather be in fact commonly unknown.

I will check it a get back to you if I have anything to add.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Its most likely disappointment more than anything and people are lashing out and might be taking sides. I wouldnt, too many exclusives I want to play on xbo down the road. If I bash anything its nintendo and the wiiu, and thats a subject for another thread.

i'm going to list off the phases i've seen since i've been on this site:

punching bag = 360 for RRoD.
punching bag = ps3 for $599
punching bag = wii for casual games
punching bag = wii for massive sales drop aka fad
punching bag = ps3 for psn hack
punching bag = 3DS for no games at launch
punching bag = ps vita for shit-tacular sales and no games
punching bag = wiiU for shit-tacular sales and no games
punching bag = xbox one for anti-consumer policies

 

...my only question is why are xbox fans so sensitive?  sony and nintendo fans weathered their shit storms with far more grace.

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.


oh I didn't know PS eye comes with PS4 for free?



No im a Nintendo fan, but seriously sonyfans talk like fans, while xbox fans often sound like advertisers and Microsoft workers.

But thats ofc just my personal opinion.

One factor that is always, ALWAYS left out is? Kinect 2.0, a great piece of hardware that will not be ignored by the public or gamers alike. Not only will it not be ignored but will be a major selling point for the system.  You will see a lot of posts that complain about the extra $100 but completely leave out and ignore Kinect, as if it's not even a part of the deal. Personally I think paying a extra $100 for the device is a great deal and will serve them in the future. Launching with the device is a great idea and will be a success, the only people who compain about this, are usually only those who where not going to buy the system in the first place. having the device from the beginning will get games to use in all different ways and get the attention it deserves. I can see FPS games allowing you to peak around corners or many different combinations of actions.

Reasons why most articles are spin.

1. Launch games are not going to be to close to full potential, and are not going to be for some time. Look at what Halo 4 Achieved

2. There is a learning curve for any system, some are easier, some are not. Time is needed, it's new!

3.  Xbox One will Achieve 1080p 60fps on multi-plats and has already on first party game Forza.

 

Now we will get lots of spin and pounding of the chest in here, try to keep it civil.

 

 

 

 

I disagree, KZ:SF looks better in terms of graphx (I assume that is what you were alluding to) than Ryse.
