Forums - Gaming - Forbes OP says "5 Reasons to Buy an XB1"

It's a lot of xbots writing articles on how awesom Xbox one is. They want to ride the momentum of price cuts, game lineup and Sony online blunders. In order to sway buyers this holiday season. Look at most of the current post. One is titled I traded my ps4 for x1. All propaganda .

i like to play as a developer.
They said sometime that every Xbox One will be a dev kit for Xbox One.
Is this feature already implemented?



Hunger is a reason? That's a hope and promise of future greatness, which is pretty much the same as what we're expecting from Sony too. So hardly a reason to buy Xb one over PS4, and on the one hand he says price now has an effective $100 advantage to Xb one because of bundled games, but Ps4 has $399 bundles which makes it only a $50 advantage, still an advantage but he's overstating it by calling it $100. There's nothing in it between XBL and psn really, and the so instability of the ps4 firmware update is far too overblown in significance.

So as always it comes down to the games, and often the one game you want that can't be had on the other console.

When I saw price I was like wtf then saw the article is from Nov of last year.



the only reason that should matter is the exclusive games for each console, You can go by last gen to figure out which system is going to have the type of exclusives youll like. With Sony youll get Indies and a wide variety of game types with MS youll get alot of shooters and action titles. The other thing to keep in mind is MS front loads thier exclusives where Sony will back load thier Exclusives during a generation.

I always find it interesting that Forbes has a lot of articles about gaming. Kind of the opposite of the stereotype that I would expect.


Well Forbes is in bed with MS and has been for a long time. LOL@ putting Kinect up there (dead) and Live (irrelevant) no one cares about either anymore. Still no stand out games exclusively and the price is a none factor when you have one of the other consoles already.



When I'm hungry I like to eat food.
