As a game enthusiast I like reading the comments... but your right, this sites been giving me a headache for a few days now.... Its almost like the release of a AAA game on Xbox brings all the clowns out. Gamespot / IGN are far neutral. Might go there for a while. 


Then you need to be enthusiastic about the success of the PS4 with its plethora of gaming options for other game enthusiasts.  And we all know you're an Xbox supporter which is fine in and of itself.  But when you couple this with you distain for positive PlayStation news, you're only giving yourself and other Xbox suporters a bad name.  And saying the PlayStaion is doing great is VERY neutral because it's the truth.  But what you really want is that sort of neutral that no one says anything good about anything so no one gets hurt.  But the reality here is that your hobby of being an Xbox supporter isn't giving enough joy because the PlayStation is doing so much better.  Game enthusiast???  You ain't fooling no one.

Fair enough, but I'm perfectly  "joyful" playing on the xbox. It's just coming on here, seeing xbox/halo etc downplay left right and centre, which is odd because on sites like ign and gamespot there's none of that or even if there is its balanced with positive xbox stuff. 

And I don't have a problem with PlayStation or the games FYI. I enjoy the PS4. UC collection  is a close second to my GOTY.  It's Sony who I have a problem with.

I thought everyone was switching to the PS4. Microsoft screwed up this gen.


But XO has had a steady steam of great games since launch. How exactly have they screwed up now? Prelaunch  reveal was a mess, but since then they have done nothing but deliver....

Well that's rather shit news. PS2 didn't need shooter fans to sell 150 million. I don't need an influx of shooter fans to start skewing development even more in the fps direction thanbgaking has already gone. Why can't they just go back to PC which is where they all were before Xbox showed up? Fps is much better on PC anyway.



personally i agree on fps being better on PC. but that going back thing? no. fps have always been on consoles.

deliver what? the same old same old? less exclusives? the less powerfull hardware? little to no  support of the peripheral device they initially bundled without giving option? more talk less show? what?



Hunting Season is done...

Dudebrostation confirmed. /s

The creepy disdain for fans of shootersbeing displayed in this thread borders on racism. "Go back to PC?" Get over yourselves.

Well xbox stole them off Nintendo so now Sony steals them of xbox. Swings and roundabouts. Who knows maybe ninty will steal them back in the future



It's logical to buy the platform where you have the best version of all multiplatform games, shooters included, and also Sony is making lately very interesting deals and esclusive contents.

I an understand the comment of "Where's the numbers" after the whole Halo thing.. but isn't it obvious without that? I think you have to take stuff and apply a bit of logic/common sense.

Lets just use a few common sense things

COD in USA used to be weighted towards Xbox, this is certainly not true now when we see current gen sales
Xbox did do a lot better last gen in terms of console sales in europe than it has now, so we can make a logical guess that COD is selling less and PS4 more
Battlefront and COD limited edition consoles have been at the top end of amazon for a while in pre-orders, we can assume SW will push a lot of consoles

So yeah we don't need numbers right now, we can see thats going to be the case.

Pretty much everything was stolen from Nintendo, but you can't really blame MS or Sony since what they stole was completely unprotected to begin with.Nintendo is like the guy that leaves the door unclocked and windows open at night in his house,in that situation you can't really blame the thief, but the owner of the house.

About your last sentence, based on Nintendo's current image , I completely doubt it.

Why, why would you make me remember Goldeneye and Perfect Dark, now I feel like a teenager again, I am reliving all those moments again now...
