Cheaper? Generally less problems? Those are the two reasons I stopped playing on PC, expenses + lost patience with HW issues. Granted I still have no desire for a Xbox due to no games I want to play, but if there were, i'd go there instead of back to PC.

So you'd sell your gaming PC which costs hundreds of dolars in order to buy a cheaper XB1? What?

No, I meant if I didn't have either and had to choose one

Although, it is a bit more complex than that. If I had no platforms, I'd go with PC because Xb1 alone wouldn't have enough games even if they did interest me, which they don't. But assuming a scenario where I have another console (be it PS4 or NX, whatever), then I'd complement it with X1, not a PC. I think it's easy enough to understand

Well I wanted an Xbox for Scalebound but its coming to PC so...

Gonna wait and see how the 6tflop Scorpio is, and I still want Sunset Overdrive.

Even after that E3 gameplay trailer?

It totally killed my hype for the game

It was really just a bad demo, boss fights are rarely a good unveiling. I wanted to see new locations, loved what I saw last year.

Has there been new Scorpio news or something? The fear is real!

And no, Xbox will keep going, despite the wishes of some fans. Fans who don't understand that competition is good for everyone, those type of people are definitely not gamers.

I love the smell of insecurity in the morning *sniffs*

And the question was asked for years now but again people are still going to get the Xbox One S regardless.

And now that a pretty big factor (exclusives) has been devastatingly reduced, causing the question to be asked again. 

And again it is pointless to ask again and people are still going to buy it not just for exclusives but also for big multiplatform games like COD and FIFA.

People are still going to buy Xbox and Amazon is showing that.

Thanks for proving my point it is still charting very well even though all of the games are on PC.

Why does every ill-informed thread like this assume that Xbox fans would rather have a PC than a console?

Exactly.

And with Xbox One S selling like hotcakes, idk why people think any Xbox gamer/fan is going to jump ship lol. Can we make this the LAST thread on this topic please?

So much people don't even know what they are talking about, it's hilarious.

Not everyone can afford a gaming PC.

You don't need a gaming PC to game on PC.
Consoles will cost you more anyway because of the game prices.

I'm a PC gamer. I still own an Xbox One and an Xbox 360.
Even if their game library's were the same, I would still own all those platforms.

And you know what? I look forwards to the day when I can jump on my PC and play a game with someone who is on my Xbox in the lounge room, exclusives don't appeal to me as it goes against that.

Buy once, own on all platforms, great for the pocket and a massive selling point over Playstation in my opinion.

i don't understand... the 2 people play the same game on 2 different systems at the same time?

i assume you bought 1 copy of the game correct? so how can you play with the person in the living room?

 

a side question would be, if you already are a pc gamer, why buy a box that literally has no game your pc can't play? on top of it paying every year to be able to play online. it would be more cost effective, not to mention better performance to get a 2nd pc tower for 500/600$

1) There are games you buy for Xbox which then become free to play on PC.

2) If you were to compare my Xbox and PC game collections (I am willing to link them to you if you want) I have a significant amount of duplicates on both platforms, because I enjoy playing them on different platforms at different times and at different locations.

I don't look at the platforms competing and replacing each other, I look at them as platforms that compliment each other, not everyone has my disposable income though.

3) If Exclusives sell consoles, why has the Wii U which has arguably a bigger exclusive library than Xbox One, done so poorly? I think Multiplatform titles are ultimately more important.

4) You can remote play Xbox games on any PC.

But a Xbox One is still much cheaper than a gaming PC. It's a good alternative.

Not always. And depends what you want.

Depends, A PC can look however you want it to look.

VERY PRETTY.

Cringe worthy.

You could also put a PC in a... Wait for it... Playstation 4 or Xbox One case.

Or, heck. Put it in a Microwave.
