XBOX 1

[Samo]

Why didn't anyone make a scene at the conference?

I don't know what the heck they're thinking with the used game fee, which is actually the full price of the new game.

They don't realize that they've just fucked up retailers and rental stores. They better just scrap everything they've done.
I've used the Xbox marketplace enough, it's nothing but stupid advertisements for the latest Call of Duty/Gears of War DLC and the useless Zune marketplace, to top it all off it's incredibly slow.

This is going to do worse than the Wii U. Microsoft have screwed up so badly, making their console targeted at Americans only. Even partnering with the NFL. If anyone wanted to watch primitive men charge at each other they would change their TV channel, not watch a low quality stream.

Microsoft even make EA look like gods after this. Windows 8 has been regarded poorly and now they've given us even more to complain about. Microsoft really do know how to make people angry.

I'd like to see what will happen in the Xbox servers go down... Let's see how long it takes them to get rid of the 360's Live connection.

"Why didn't anyone make a scene at the conference?"
Well it was invite with the press only. They can't misbehave. Woulda been funny if someone said something though.

"If anyone wanted to watch primitive men charge at each other they would change their TV channel, not watch a low quality stream."
It's not a stream.
Xbox one is going to be a cable box. That is what they talked about half the time. They plan on having their own Halo TV show and other shit too.

Xbox One Reveal 2013 Highlights

Wow. They just keep getting worse.

Just check this patent.

"Microsoft has filed for a Kinect-related patent, and it’s a doozy of an application. The abstract describes a camera-based system that would monitor the number of viewers in a room and check to see if the number of occupants exceeded a certain threshold set by the content provider. If there are too many warm bodies present, the device owner would be prompted to purchase a license for a greater number of viewers."

You know what's bad about consoles...get the latest console and then suddenly a new one appears out of the blue! Like PS3 it was a big success and now they released a date for PS4 ( i think there's a date) not that PS is bad..I mean come on..lots of  people are already into Xbox 360 why bother bringing out Xbox one. Let me tell you its all because they want more attention..THEY ARE ATTENTION WHORES!!!!Seriously okay if they bought the xbox one like 7 years later then yeah that would be fine but now, really?

PC is better in any opinion, I mean you can literally do anything you want on computer. Upgrading to the latest tech is very easy. Whether if you want to get a better Graphics card or upgrading the Ram size...Most Importantly..you can mod the crap put of nearly any games lol.

I just don't see why people bother buying consoles. Its just a waste of money and with that money I think you could afford like a high end graphics card. Or save up and you could get a gaming PC! So stop wasting money on Consoles ( apart from PS3 and Xbox 360) and get a good PC

Consoles 

The Main Reason people play Consoles, is that gaming started on Consoles. Console gaming will continue forever in one form or another, as the main Gaming market is based on the Sales on Console and their Games.

Plus some games are exclusive only on consoles (until they get decent emulators that computers can handle).

Technically gaming started in the 1940's on a CRT screen, with the Cathode ray tube amusement device.

The first real gaming device was the size of a room called the NIMROD in 1951. After witch people started loading video games on the supercomputing centers (for the time) at universities.

Then the first storable computer game "Spacewar!" was loaded on the PDP-1 "Minicomputer" (it was a bit larger the size of a few apartment washing-machine/dryers) and cost $920,000 if you adjust for inflation.

Then the Odyssey came out which is the first game console in 1961.


So it could roughly be argued that the first video game was a television. And the first real video-game was on a PC, with the consoles starting soon after.
Undoubtedly though video games were popularized on consoles, since PC's at the time cost the same as a new car would.

"get the latest console and then suddenly a new one appears out of the blue! Like PS3 it was a big success and now they released a date for PS4"

You do realize consoles come out like every like 7 years?

Most people buy it 2/3 years after it comes out.(for price drops and a lot of games to be already on the console) so most people get at least 4 or 5 years out of the console (though because people wait another 2 years or whatever for the next console some could argue 7 or whatever years.)

The PS3 came out in 06(360 in 05.) so 7 years later isn't really out of the blue.

Some people think the wait is too long for new consoles and want it after 5 years.

I'd say it's fine how often they come out. Hell at least they aren't like phones that get a new model every year and are the same price and sometimes more than the price of a console.

I was just reading up on something.

Apparently, this showcase was more meant to show off the non-gaming capabilities of it. They will probably focus on the gaming part at E3.
