Talk to me about the Xbox One

just stick to your ps4. you seem to have already built up some resentment towards xbox and microsoft.


/end thread

DRM, resolutiongate, Kinect emphasis, always on and rental restrictions, all-in-one entertainment focus instead of games, etc. need more?

You're that obtuse? I'm literally trying to buy an Xbox here you twat.

All that shite is gone, except the all in one entertainment part.

It's a solid product.

fine fine. i'll give a legit answer. jesus this board has been run into the ground.


i've owned an xbone since release. don't own a ps4, but own a mid level gaming computer that i hardly ever game on. i'm assuming you already know the ps4 vs xbone vs pc graphics debate. if not, a master race doucher will be by here shortly to remind us all of the obvious and to bang on their chest.

i like it. my e-friends play on xbox. i prefer the microsoft exclusives over playstation exclusives. i also feel the more popular fps and sports games have a bigger market on the xbone than the ps4. i don't use my kinnect any longer, but the voice command features are more useful than you would originally suspect. the gui itself is ever changing, but currently is a lot better than when launched. but it is very much built around the "all entertainment media" concept. which if that's your thing or you plan on using the xbone in your living room connected to your primary television will serve as a great entertainment all in one. has all the popular video apps you could ever want and is easy to use. already owning plenty of media devices, you probably have access to everything you want or need, but having them on one console where you are a voice command or controller strokes away, is worth it. the features that exceed their competitor (imo) are the party chat system, messaging system, social achievements dynamic, activity feed, and the xbox one app / microsoft glass application. You can also stream your xbox to a windows 10 pc and stream media from your pc to the xbox one.

as stated before: if a friend asked me 'xbone vs ps4' recommendation and all they did was play multiplayer or singleplayer. i would tell them ps4, but in your case if you are interested in the all in one media aspect, then absolutely the $299 price is worth it.

sounds like yall are into some kinky shite over at the sic residence....

that was the worst presser / release conference of all time. marketing undergrads will be doing case studies on that frick up for decades. it's likely still hurting their sales numbers and will continue to for the life of this generation. thankfully they already had a pretty strong brand loyalty that bailed them out of that debacle.

You mean saying "deal with it" isn't a good way to sell a product?

MATTRICK: "Some of the advantages that you get, of having, a box that is designed to use an online state, so, that, uh, to me is the future-proof choice, and I think people, could've arguably gone the other way if we didn't do it and fortunately we have a product for people who aren't able to get some form of connectivity, it's called Xbox 360."

KEIGHLEY: "Right, so stick with 360, that's your message if you don't [inaudible] like it?"

MATTRICK: "Well, if you have zero access to the internet, that is an offline device, I mean, seriously, when I read the blogs, and thought about who's really the most impacted, there was a person who said 'hey, I'm on a nuclear sub,' and I don't even know what it means to be on a nuclear sub but I've gotta imagine it's not easy to get an internet connection."

KEIGHLEY: "[inaudible] playing call of duty multiplayer"

MATTRICK: "Hey, I can empathize, if I was on a nuclear sub, I'd be disappointed."
