XBOX 1

[HideoKojima]

Xbox 1 is the new xbox.

The conference was awful showing literally like no games. They talked mostly about TV, sports and a Halo TV show... (So a system just for fratboys.)

After half of it was over they showed EA sports games, one new ip with no game footage(none of the trailer had game footage) a forza trailer, and at the very end a COD trailer.
It was like MS E3s. Completely awful.


Oh and after that it got even worse.

Xbox 1 has no BC. Though PS4 doesn't either.

And even worseeee
Second hands games YOU HAVE TO PAY A FEE to play the game.
So yeah. You want to bring a game to a friend's house? Better cough up the cash!

Also the xbox 1 isn't always online but does need internet connection?(No idea how this works not enough info.)
I imagine it needs online to be able to read discs to see if they are new or not. But that is still similar to always online...?

Xbox 1 was just announced and it just sounds so bad. I have 0 plans on ever buying one. Even with the Vita and WiiU I have plans on getting them one day. (Although not any time soon.)


EDIT:

Some other info.

The xbox 1 must ALWAYS have the kinect on to be able to work. If the kinect isn't on it will not work.

Sony's stock went up during the whole thing lol

Microsoft didn't waste any time showing off the Xbox One console, new Kinect sensor and Xbox controller at the beginning of Tuesday's presentation.

Microsoft's stock fell 6 cents to $35.02 in early afternoon trading Tuesday.

Also, am confus about the whole name.

Do I just call the Xbox from 2001, "Xbox"? Or Xbox "Original"?

what is all this non-necessary stuff why is this here i just want to play games

Guess now we just call it the first xbox or the original xbox. It is quite stupid.

I don't know why they went with that name.

The only good thing is that it isn't any iPhone-esque design.

Wood design isn't included.

What the shit, is it actually confirmed that used games are now obsolete without paying a retarded fee?

-More shitty social networking on consoles
-Possible used game fee
-Not backwards compatible
-Unreliable voice commands
-Kinect 2 needs to be on at all times
-Kinect also can monitor heart rate
-Don't forget the memberships (Because people didn't spend enough on the console already)
-Mandatory game installs
-No disc tray?
-Silly name (Could have gone with 720)

The thing looks like a fucking unfinished VCR or a stereo tuner
Well, it seems that the PS4 takes the lead here.

Well. That's awful. The controller is the exact same. Will it be compatible with Xbox 360 ones? Nah. Always online that they have will be breaking to many, for oh so many reasons. Used game fee however, is the maximum amount of bullshit. I doubt the fee will go to the publishers, let lone the developers. Straight into Microsoft's pockets. It bothers be they don't directly support analog output. A good number of people still use older televisions, particularly for the younger audience they are targeting, who often use the beat up old television rather than their parent's nice new one. Three wireless radios built into the thing, but knowing MS, they'll still charge for an external wireless card for actual internet communication

Forced game installs is reasonable, for the sake of speeding it up. Loading times for some games were bad enough with optical drives. With larger game sizes from now on, even if it wernt mandatory installs, it would be silly not to, with a 500gb HDD included anyhow. Skype service in it seems nice at least.

I did minimal amounts of actually looking things up, but I find this a bit silly.

Ill stick to PC.

I think Microsoft wants this system to fail.

A few updates(and repeat of things.).


-Needs an internet connection. You can only be offline for 24 hours. (It really is a pretty much always online machine.)
-Can't play on a different profile without paying a fee (Probably means bye Gamefly/Redbox.)
-Kinect must be plugged in and always on. (Also the kinect is always listening.)
-TV needs separate shit for the xbox(Fucking stupid since it's one of their biggest things.)
-Not BC(though neither is ps4)
-Still have to pay for online

Does it have like any fucking pros..?

I don't know how some(a very small group really.) people think the xbox1 looks good.

Some retards are saying it looks better then the PS4. ( Micheal. Annoying ass rage quit guy. )

Some also say the Xbox 1 event was better then the PS4. ( Machinima youtube channel.)

I just don't understand.

Not even the biggest Jew nose can amount to this.

I lost my shit watching the comments: Xbox One Reveal: Angry Rant

Not too fond of Joe, but... The comments.

[Supertoaster]

I think that Xbox is trying to attract more "casuals".


Sony is probably creaming their pants right now.

Xbox was attracting casual gamers before. Now they are attracting... Uh... I... Uhm...
Yeah. Those people.

I don't know who the fuck MS is after.

They seem after an audience that doesn't really exist.

A crowd that wants more then video games. Which is weird because it's a gaming machine and the fact that the TV shit isn't even INCLUDED with the xbox one stuff.

They talk about it being easier for people but it's really not that much different from pressing one button your your remote to switch channels.

I really don't think MS has any idea what the fuck they are doing, and their console is so anti-consumer it isn't even funny.
Like I don't think any of the fuckers took Marketing 101. I think they just hired people who had ideas they liked or something.


Almost fucking 90% of gamers want a PS4 over a Xbox One.

Obviously doesn't count for everyone. But it does show what the people who know about it think.


I was talking to a friend on steam about the console.
And the thing is, the console is just so bad with all the anti-consumer shit. Even if it had the best library of all time, I don't think I'd get One.

At this point I have 0 plans on ever getting a Xbox One. And so do many others.
Which is a terrible thing for people to think when it was just announced.

I mean most people think for months/years maybe one day.(I did for the 360.)

But I don't want this thing at all. It is just awful.
