The Xbox one is a complete failure of a console. I do not know what Microsoft was thinking about when they thought it was a good idea to make your friend pay a fee to play your game. Or, if you had your Xbox disconnected from the internet for more than one hour, then you can't play your games offline. This is just pure stupidity. What was wrong with the way Xbox 360 worked? Why did you have to make such stupid changes? In my opinion, I think that Sony will win the video game war for this generation, unless Microsoft wises up and make the Xbox One a little more appealing. They are going to lose all their core fans because of these dumb ideas, if you will. Here is the link to the Angry Joe Show, where he will explain the Xbox One crisis in more detail. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ekOtn7L1N0  Here is the second part of his review also. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryB-hdtpQRw  What is your opinion on this matter?

Hey man! Long time no see, how are you? I'm great!

I couldn't agree with you any more, even though I'm a genuine Microsoft fan. The Xbox One first off, it's name is terrible .. You would think it would have really awesome name such as 'Xbox Infinity  or Xbox 720' But no, they go and choose a really bad name like that. That name reminds me of the first ever Xbox, although it's a fun console. 

The Xbox One is extremely expensive, it's like 400-500 dollars? Oh my word, that's a hefty price to pay for something so terrible. You'll understand why I think it's terrible in comparison with the new Playstation 4 in just a second. The Playstation is over 100 dollars cheaper to purchase and it offers so much more. 

Xbox One: $499. Online fee - $50. Available for purchase in November 2013. Built in Blu-Ray. Built-in Hard Drive (500GB). New Kinect. CPU (8-core x86 AMD). RAM (8GB DDR3). USB 3.0 ports. Wireless.

PS4: $399. Online Fee - $5. Available for purchase in Holiday 2013. Built in Blue-Ray. Built-in Hard Drive (500GB). New Playstation Move. CPU (8-core x86 AMD) RAM (8GB GDDR5). USB 3.0 ports. Wireless.

It's your choice!

Personally I think, Go home Xbox, you're drunk.



 

Dean2k13 : I'm sorry. I am really sorry, but the PS4 has an online fee. I don't know why. It's only $5 monthly which is the cheapest subsciption I have ever seen. Even still, you will get all of the bonuses of PSPlus such as the cloud saving and free games.

Tails the Fox : Oh right! Well it's x10 cheaper than the Xbox! I was always a Microsoft Fan, but when I seen this new console I actually LOLed. Sony have definitely pulled it out of the bag and I may just have to join the PlayStation Community!

Dean2k13 : Well I stopped liking Microsoft ever since they announced Windows 8. I had a PS3 and was pretty happy with it. I will likely be getting a PS4, but likely after I get a WiiU.

The PS4 just seems like the better console, as of now. If Microsoft cleans up their act, then maybe they can regain their core gamer back. A 5$ fee for online is way better than what Xbox has to offer. Also, it seems like they have a lot more people favoring the PS4 right now. I won't be surprised if Microsoft discontinues making new consoles. Oh, the Xbox One supposedly records conversations that you have in the same room. That is pretty weird if you ask me. I won't get either of these. I will probably stick with Nintendo and get a 3DS to play Super Smash Bros!

The Xbox one has alot of restrictions compared to the PS4 and think about it pretty much every game that came out for the Xbox 360 came out for the PS3 i'm sure that will happen to the PS4 and the Xbox one as well.

Wow, I didn't know the online for the Xbox was so expensive! It's even worse than I thought. This generation is definitely a Sony vs. Nintendo generation. Really, there isn't anything that's positive about the Xbox that the other systems don't have, besides the exclusives. Hopefully Microsoft fails, and sells Rare back to Nintendo. And like Tails the Fox said, since Windows 8, it's been downhill.

patar4097 : They got Killer Instinct 3. Still not enough to save them. I said I would change my mind on them if the exclusives were good enough. Its just KI3.

If Microsoft do pull out of the console race, maybe the next version of Windows might be good? There has been a pattern: XP=good Vista=Bad 7=Good 8=Bad 9=Probably good.

Tails the Fox :
why would they pull out?
nicrosoft have almost endless finance, I get the idea microsoft wont  ever throw in the towel.
I wouldnt want them to either, without a competitor sony could abuse their customers.  theres already too few systems

First of all, you have to be staff to post in the game articles forum.

Secondly, I prefer XBOX's over playstations any day, but I think I'm going to have to get a PS4. I hate the kinect, and the PlayStation move is tolerable. I will have to see where it goes before I decide.

thenumberone : Just because Nintendo did not attend E3 the same way that Sony and Microsoft did, does not mean that they weren't there. It may sound surprising, but they are a force to be reckoned with, especially since they are putting out a new Pokemon and Super Smash Bros game.

Tails the Fox :
I wasnt discounting nintendo. 3 companys is too few, 2 would be the industrys death

I agree with you a whole bunch I really hate the xbox, and how they are making it is plain stupidity, but that is just me, and your opinion. I don't want anyone feeling like I am judging what they like.

linkmaster99 : You are really lucky that I am on vacation, and I am not getting the chance to post! Anyways, I do agree with thenumberone though, if Microsoft discontinues making consoles, it will be the end of the video game industry. Unless Sega or somebody comes out of the blue and make a console. Other than that, I think the PS4 will prevail over the Xbox One because of its great amount of limitations, Kinect, as well as the amount to pay to play online. To me, PS4 is the better console right now, unless Xbox scratches all they have said and just kept it the way they did it with Xbox 360.

TreasurePlanet23 : Loss of Microsoft in the console market would not be the end of the games industry. There would still be the PS4, the WiiU and the PC. Sega could not jump in, especially with a new Sonic game on 3DS and WiiU coming along.

Are you really surprised Microsoft found a way to draw more money from the People who buy there product(console wise). PS4(sony) will easily over take all of microsoft's members because of those changes, its bad enough you have to pay for online play on xbox which causes most gamers to switch to Play station anyways but know they have it were must pay to play a game you own on a different console thats just crazy and microsoft has gone to far and will lose plenty of its members.

I think most people have jumped off the "Microsoft X-Box Train" by now.
(God only knows about the ones who don't.)

The simple matter of the cost and fees? They are all too disrespectful to the customer/consumer. Particularly when games are trending out to give less for more money (as of late).
Most have agreed that it is just not practical.
Maybe in the year 2099 it might be a sweet deal but for now? All of the restrictions and dependence required for a button mashing fix? Goodbye X-Box. Hello Playstation.

Maybe in a year I will get a "Playstation4" but that's still an if. Merely because I am certain that there will be bugs to work out. (Remember the respect issue I mentioned before.)

That and I honestly do not see the need to update at this point in time. (Why is it that they got 3 Devil May Cry Games on One disk? Same goes for Metal Gear. Yet the latest version of Soul Calibur 5 has so little? 3 old games on one disk and they can't make modern games go longer than 4 hours?)
I'm just going to be swimming in a ton of old hits once the new systems are out. It will be glorious.
Good Luck.

Good Luck To All.
I'm done. Stick a fork in me.
Peace.

I'm going to agree with most of the people here, microsoft just sucks outright, no questions asked
