She already had a pc and a ps4 but we all thought Microsoft was going to keep most of the major titles exclusive. When she bought it only dead rising 3 and fable legends were announced for the initiative. 

So which games did she already play on XBO? Did she enjoy them?

If yes: no harm done. She had some fun with the system and still can sell it without much loss (if she doesn't want it anymore).

She's primarily a PC gamer the. She games on consoles. So far no complaints from her as far as I can see. It's just that third e3 was so multiplatform heavy that it might be a deal breaker.

She has I just feel bad because she was so pessimistic earlier on. Yes she has. We played dead rising 3 together. 

 

Then it hasn't been a bad investment at all. If she had fun it was already worth it.

Yeah, as I told someone else. It was just fine she gamed on with (along with her boyfriend from time to time) but PC is always king with her. Her boyfriend talked me into making a rig so I guess it's all just friendly influence. It's going to trip hearing her opinions on the Xbox conference though knowing so many games went multiplatform, that's all.

Yes because 60$ amends for a 300$ mislead purchase-advice?  Lmao, here is 60$, sorry i tricked you into buying a product you never needed when you was right to begin with..

It's still her fault though 

It doesn't suffice  and I didn't trick her either. Neither of us knew ms would go so far with their windows 10 Xbox one initiative last year. I will see what she wants to do but one of things I could definitely do is buy her scalebound on top of other things to come. I guess you don't know how I am as a friend. If I screw up I take full responsibility for my mistakes. If any cost was involve I cover it so it doesn't need to be brought up again outside of jokes. I also buy things for my friends without them asking or expecting anything back.

I was only joking though, i keep forgetting that ''Jokes'' demands a bit more open dialig leading towards a hint of ''Obviousness'' on PC and text in general.

It's gonna be so good to play Scalebound, Recore, Forza Horison 3, Halo Wars 2 and Halo 5 on PC with better graphics and save the money from not buying an XBox.

MS cant wait to take your money.

Its a win win. I dont understand how this is bad for anyone, consumer or manufacturer.  Its very pro consumer. It gives choices and makes games availbale to as many people as possible.

"If you have a powerful PC... here, buy our game"

"If you dont want to go that route, here buy our console and game"

Only on gaming forums do people think they score some kind of fuck-you victory over a manufacturer by giving them money.

Its hilarious.

 

It's great how PC gamers don't have to pay for multiplayer, so there's that advantage over getting an Xbox One...

Edit* Nevermind. I read your response.

I might have missed something here, but Slimebeast didn't say anything about scoring any fuck you points or whatever. He just said it would be nice saving the money required to buy an XBO...

Microsoft seems to be slowly killing off xbox and just integrating it with PC. I don't think it had one full exclusive the whole show.
