I dont get it either, I had a 360 last gen i buy what suits me most, being loyal to a brand or company is one of the strangest things ever for me to understand.

well there finding it noteworthy in the sense that hey,look at all these xboxone systems in stock,nobody wants one. I don't get that,it's just because they overstuffed the retail channels in north america. that's all.

Your reality is only what you make it. Plenty of honest critical argument to pay attention to, which makes it very easy to tune out the nonsense.

Then again, this requires you to self evaluate.

Not hate, just some comparisons that dont go in its favour (like with price and stock availability as OP mentioned), and some opinions which naturally appear as a debate progresses.

The question should really be why all the defense?

Every system ever gets hate. There is no exception.

I don't hate it. I bought one, but it is not at all going to be as good as the PS4 in the long run, IMO. It has some decent games right now.  Dead Rising is excellent.  Some of the things they promised on like how the Cloud will revolutionize things, and offloading processes to it, and the Kinect being much much better than the previous version are simply not true and I don't see it happening. Once it happens, then hey, it happens and great, they already got my money for it. Also, Ryse is SOOOOOOOOO bad. I am a little bitter about that. It handles downloading way way worse than PS4. They have too many things not running natively in 1080p. Other things are great about it. I love the TV integration and how seamless it is. I love that you can personalize the Home screen. The PS4 does not allow any customization whatsoever and the blue is way too bright and getting really old. They should at least allow you to turn it off to black if nothing else. Also the DS4 battery life is a huge downer. It seriously lasts for 30-40% the length of DS3 battery.  Resogun is probably the best exclusive game out right now and it is downloadable.  Most importantly, let's be honest, unless something crazy happens Sony exclusives are going to destroy MS exclusives.  I'm convinced through talking to people online and in person, that the only people who disagree with this have never owned Sony products.

/EDIT:  Also when you come at people with no buying games in the store, and no used or rented games which are both initial attempts at a monopoly on a customer that already is buying into your company with a console purchase, and always on internet, and always on camera people are going to voice concerns, and some of them may take that as a basis to not trust your company or give you any more money, regardless of 180's forced by backlash and pre-order numbers...Imagine what would have happened if they didn't do the 180?  People would be verbally ripping it to shreds everywhere, and no one would be buying it, especially if it had equal performance to what it does currently in its 180 state.

I do not think it is hate. Just stupid fanboyisms from few people.  Some fanboys finds happyness in trashing the "opposite" console instead of being happy and enjoying good things about theirs; which is weird.

And because a good majority of VGChartz' members are Sony enthousiats it is innevitable to see that behavior towards the Xbox One quite often :)
Now, hopefully it is only few people... On the other hand there are Xbox or Nintendo fans doing the same but the number is way lower (again because of the proportion of Sony enthousiasts on this website).

I do not think the OP is debating if the console is better or not. But he is more talking about random bash/trash comments in Xbox One threads or the almost impossibility to have a thread talking about the Xbox One without having it derailing to flamewar mainly because of people coming in and ruining it. At least this is what I understood.

Can only speak for myself, but MS made a enemy for life with the XBOX360 failurerate. Also i don't like the enormous focus on connectivity via the internet

I see more hate from those who cannot stomach the "not to rosy" Xbox One news.

It depends on what you mean by "hate". Articles and posts about stock issues and situations are definitely relevant on VGC, be it stores not stocking the Vita or Wii U or having over-stock of the Xbox One. I just wish people wouldn't make a new thread each and every time they drop by GameStop.
