I did not say anything about TitanFall. Why you keep mentioning that in reply to me. You act like you know for a fact they dont know. You do not know shit about them#dealwiththat oh my bad yea you do. You know that they prefer xbox from what he is saying. That seems to light your soul on fire.#prayaboutit


"I did not even bring up titanfall or else it would have been..." straight from the OPs mouth. They based their decision on a little bit of hands on with a couple games. Thats it. Op even said Titanfall wasnt brought up. The fact that you dont want people to be educated in their decision is telling. What are you afraid of? that they change their mind? Run and tell that home boy.

@max,, didn't you consider taht the group would have been educated regarding both consoles and that tehy just prefered the xbox one more due to the launch titles? Heck i did just exactly that knowing i ill be paying 100 bucks more . I bought it mainly due to games that came out on teh console at launch. Because of that i got teh xbox one first over the ps4. So are you calling all those who bought the xbox one ones due to few games at launch stupid? lol. What points have you brought up? You tried to justify the reason for teh gap is because it outsold the xbox in the 13 countries it was availble at ,, completely ignoring the fct its availble in 40 more countries lol. Then you based ps4 being better on meta crtici which is based on reviewers personal pereference rather tehn consumers own taste an dplus teh meta critic list for xbox one was missing 7 multiplats games which ws included on ps4. Well done,, you should be given a PHD for that


Op admits Titanfall wasnt brought up. I suggest that maybe there should be some other things brought up to actually be able to make an informed decision. You guys want to prevent that lol thats funny

Your putting words in my mouth bra, I simply said there needs to be more information to make an informed decision and gave a few example. Simple as that. It caused people to cry because for some reason they think making ignorant decision when 500 bucks is on the line is better.



@max So just because titanfall wasn't brought ,, it doesn't mean they can't pick up an xbox one based on the current available games right? Theres alot of quality games out there for xbox one which warrants a purchase. Who gives you the right to tell them what they should or should buy lol. Did you ever consider the fact they know about the ps4 and teh features you get for less? Are you their mother to try and convince them to nto get xbox one lol

@max you avoided the question bra lol. Not really since they know what they will get for 500 dollars. Hows is it ignorant for them if they choose ot buy xbox one over ps4? Don't see how i was putting words into yoru mouth since i was asking you a question ,, not stating a fact . theres a difference lol. You do know theres a thing called youtube and google search to get info regarding both consles to make an informa decison right? i mean surely teh students at teh dorm are educated enough to use google search lol

Actually isn't killzone bundled? cause i got a ps4 killzone bundle when i bought my ps4. Wouldn't that explain the immense success it has had so far? I don't understand why it would be a critical flop when the game is pretty good. The negativity behind it is quite ludicrous since dissing the comabt system would be liek dissing batman fighting system which always get praised. Saying this cause i got the game and finished it . i think its selling well cause people who are giving it a chance are actually realising that the game is not that bad but quite fun to play.


No. That alone doesn't explain it because it overlooks several facts. One, Killzone had quite a few stand-alone pre-orders. Two, Killzone bundles were only one of many different bundles that existed but they also sold more quickly than most which means people wanted the PS4 WITH Killzone more often than most other bundles. It's not simply that people were settling for it when everything else ran out. There were also countries that didn't have a Killzone bundle. Finally, Killzone sold quite a few copies on its own. I would say that even without the bundles it would probably have still sold more than Ryse. In fact, on the US Amazon site for the Best Sellers of 2014 Archive, Killzone: Shadow Fall has sold more stand-alone copies this year on that site than any X1 launch exclusive. It's currently sitting at 63rd, above even Call of Duty but below Battlefield 4 and Assassin's Creed IV. So saying that Killzone owes its success to being bundled requires one to ignore certain things.

If you don't understand why Ryse scored low then read the actual reviews instead of just looking at the number. From what I've heard the reason why Ryse's combat system gets shit on by some reviewers is not because of how the system works at its basic level but because it lacks the polish of games like Batman: Arkham City. The combat system doesn't feel as rewarding or quite as robust as it does in that game. Not to mention that Batman: Arkham City was praised for its open-world and mild exploration hooks in addition to its story and non-combat gameplay mechanics. Quite simply, there was a lot more to Arkham City than there was to Ryse and where they were similar Arkham City did it better.

Sure we could go with the assumption that the people who bought all those copies of Ryse initially did so because they liked a game they hadn't played yet but that would be silly, wouldn't it? The reality is the game sold as well as it did because of the perception the game had of being a hardcore title that catered to the stereotypical Xbox crowd and those guys wanted games, no matter how good or bad they are, because every console lacks options at launch. Show them a violent game like Ryse and your core Xbox crowd goes nuts. All of these launch games that got a fair amount of attention are going to continue to sell until the library actually has a healthy amount of choice in it. The games that don't deserve the sales will be far less likely to get them.

If this was a "hey lets see which one we like more to see which one we all get" which the OP makes it seem then yes, when one persons decision, opinion, taste influence other than you need to make sure people want titanfall over infamous, worse running multiplats, RBI phone game over the Show. The only way to do that is to inform them and by ignoring future games then you are failing. Now instead of trying to squash this you should support the notion of making an informed decision
