Since I only posted this twice because my previous thread was locked, is that suppost to mean I should repost every POSITIVE Microsoft article I've already posted to "even the odds?'

It means what I said, your bias is obvious and your determination to post negative MS news and downplay Microsoft just detracts from the thread. But this is VGC and that practise has become part of what it is. Not exactly going to change. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

You know what, what's not gonna change is the changing of one's heart.  That's all on you.  So what I'm about to say is to set the record straight for everyone else.

From my original thread, I was one of the few that had a positive response in which I said:

"I concure with your POV.  I think the One S is physically more attractive than the non-S while being reasonably priced.  Also, I think the One S looks better than the PS4 Slim.  Not to say that people buy hardware based on looks, but I wouldn't doubt it played as a minor factor."

So, Libara, think what you want.  Your matter of perception is so trivia.  But truth be known that I've posted both positive and negative Xbox articles.  If you continue to be so angry over nothing, might I suggest that you find a new hobby. It looks like gaming isn't giving you enough joy to see past something so ultimately meaningless.

I wasn't aware pointing out what you are doing equates to being angry, I replied to make a point. Not that I need to, people can very easily see others bias without being told.

Lol you have no fucking idea what you're talking about! Clearly you don't know LivingMetal and based your shitty opinion on one post.

So what kind of bias do I have when I post positive articles such as...

Buy an Xbox One, Get an Extra Free Game Right Now

Xbox One S Makes You FAT!

Seagate Announces First External Xbox One SSD, Out in November

The Borderlands collection is free on Xbox One right now

Xbox Scorpio Making "Amazing Progress," Spencer Says

Dead Rising 4 Season Pass and Digital Deluxe Edition announced

WEEKLY DEALS: XBOX 360 & XBOX ONE SALES AND GAMES WITH GOLD

Phil Spencer Happy With Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Progress

All Xbox related, all posted by I, all postive. Remember, you said:

"We get it, you don't like Microsoft."

But like I said, your heart is all on you.

Wow, Libara must have really hit one of your  nerves.. I don't see his opinion being shitty.  No one's opinion is ever shitty.  you need to cool down.



Praise the One.

The funny thing is that the article you posted is very positive towards Microsoft and very negative towards Sony, so anti-MS bias confirmed :)

Lmao y'all are getting wild

Then please offer your own analysis and explantion as to what is occuring here with the sustained turnaround (4 months straight and even against the beloved almighty PSVR release).. Love to hear it! remember...This was not supposed to happen according to many of you..

They won by 10 k due to the crazy deals  in order to clear the original Xbox Stock. They won by over 100k+ due to the release of the Xbox One S + 2-3 months of Pre-order.

They took September because the last model, and the most affordable one, of the Xbox One S launched in the end of the previous month, PS4 Slim wasn't successful.

 

We don't have enough data to say  if they had a good advantage on October. If they won by  a few thousands even with Gears + Battlefield deal + Pro's pre-orders, then it will have a hard time against the PS4 Pro(Sony has a good 1-2Q line up). And it will become harder and harder the closer we get to the Scorpio's release date.

 

Last January, Sony had the advantage of 110-140k. Xbox One has the advantage of  over 180k in the last  3 months( still need to know the numbers of October). The Xbox will only make a comeback if they outsell the PS4 in November or December of this year. Otherwise, The gap will be too big, due to the strong early-mid 2017 that Sony will have, that not even the Scorpio's launch will be able to close the gap, turn the tides for Microsoft.

And, Libara, you were right on one thing. You never said I was angry so I agree. I said you were angry. Better?
