Massive Changes in Microsoft's Xbox One Policy

Han shot first
I'm still not getting an Xbox 180. The fact that they did that was for money and nothing else. If you think they did it JUST for the consumers you're a moron. M$ looked at their pre orders and went "OH SHIT WE FUCKED UP". Sony on the other hand from the get go made it for the consumers and developers. SONY > M$.

I cant think of one reason for any right minded person to buy an Xbox One over a PS4.

And you cant say exlusives because most of the exclusives shown so far on both consoles have been pretty "meh" or hit or miss. The third party games being developed for next gen look more appealing than most of the exlusives shown. And even then, we've not seen very much from any of the exclusives, not enough to say anything definite about them. If you're willing to buy and inferior console because of one or two games, you should probably re-think your plan, unless you got money like that, if you do, then you can obviously waste as you please.

Well it's too early to tell which PS4/Xbox One exclusives will shape into full franchises. PS3 launched with a big number of exclusives and a lot of them were so bad that Sony gave up on them immediately
This is true -- but the ones that worked are real gems. Uncharted for example, is a great series.

I feel like everyone should just be focused on playing the great games wherever they are; make your choice in be happy with with it. But it's not like one system has to be great and the other one has to suck.

They have similar hardware (minus the Kinect) and they'll probably both be awesome in their own way in time.

Aww shit <REDACTED DUE TO FEELINGS> its Shapzam
So, the only advantage the xbone had over PS4 is gone... and all that's left is PS4 being superior as a gaming device due to price and hardware.

If anyone still wants to buy an xbone... they be silly in the willy.

I'm talking about MK9 offline.
So.. "the reason I didn't play any of the exclusives is because the only time I tried one it lagged" is basically what you said, right? But MK9 isn't PS exclusive. And offline? Are you talking about frame rate drop?

I never even gave a reason to why I didn't play an exclusive, not have I said that any of them were shot. I just don't like the console. Yes, disgusting amounts of framerate drop.
 
So what's the policy on the Kinect? I don't really want any uninvited witnesses to the massive amounts of debauchery taking place in my living room.

Sorry, I misunderstood, I thought you meant the one time you did play an exclusive it lagged, you meant the one time you did play a game on PS3.

Oh my bad. I have played Dead Space and some other stuff that didn't lag, it's kinda frustrating when the main game I played did lag though.
 
More of a playstion guy, but I'm really glad they changed their stance. Now it can be more accessible to other countries. Not only that, KI will now more than likely have a tourney scene. Hoping that the game turns out good, so it can eventually go multiplatform.

What? :REO

2 giants of the next gen console war are now back on the same playing field. Now it's just the question of which console's got the better exclusives.

Oh yeah I agree with you, because porting to PC is usually ass =/

Yeah those are the most played games (although I hate Minecraft), you're also forgetting Starcraft, the biggest esports game.
Dude, wtf? Most games are developed on pcs. The 360 is a pc. The only real porting is to ps3 or nintendo
