Will you buy Xbox 2 if there wont be any exclusives for it ?

Yup. I don't give a rats ass about upgrading my PC in order to play next gen games. I tried the PC thing and I wasn't bitten by the bug my friend swore would get me. I don't want to tinker with it, upgrade it, or search for a fix when a game doesn't start. I don't care how easy people say it is. I don't want to do it. I'll take my Xbox, thank you.

It would be great for new gamers. I do have a gaming PC and I have no problem playing on my PC so it wouldn't be for me.

Ditto. :)

Nah!!! What for exactly???

Not that I have nothing against the Xbox One, it just makes it easier for me to play there games on my PC and I do wish MS good luck on the Xbox One at the very least.

This is good point there for your case. Never thought of that.

Why you think Spencer wont do a fine job with next Xbox ? You think he is one of the main reasons X1 failed this generation ?

Sorry you didnt like my poll but you have to know this is a legit poll. There are no shady narratives, trolling, dissing in the shadows let alone hate. Feel free to vote what you like i think all four options are legit and give your opinions.

Also for the record @hrt_rulz01 you said me just yesterday :

Exclusives are important, but I don't think you can say they're more important than multiplats. For the "average" console buyer out there, mutliplats would be as important (if not more important).

As for your second point, that would make no difference. As I've said a billion times on here, people put way too much emphasis on MS putting their games on PC too. For 99% of people who buy consoles, they couldn't care less about gaming on PC. So it makes absolutely no difference if MS puts the games on PC too. It's a moot point.

So please man.

No. I don't even want to buy any on the next gen consoles. After I am done with the PS exclusives I will be done with gaming and focus on other hobbies.

@davillain-: Same, I mean it's handy my brother likes Xbox One and I can play with him on PC anyway so it makes no difference. I only bought an Xbox One to play games with him but now that I don't have to, I'll just use PC in future.

No, as long as their games are on PC, I have no need for a xbox console.

Wow man, let me tell you a secret !! There wont be other hobbies for you since PS exclusives never end.

We know what you're insinuating... you made your point clear in the other thread. Anyway, like I've said ad nauseam, the vast majority of people who buy an Xbox console (or a PS) are console gamers that have no interest in gaming on a PC. So the fact that MS's first party content is also releasing on Win10 is inconsequential in the grand scheme of things.

Anyway, yes, I'll definitely be picking up the next Xbox console, whenever that is. But I don't really want to think about that yet. It's years away.

I might still get it since I just usually rent.

I don't hoard games.

I do like playing the latest pretty soon say within 1-2 weeks upon release.

Not really into waiting for sales on PC.

Priority: PS5 > PC > Switch 2/XB2

LOL no!

Anyone who says in an interview with Gamespot that he doesn't understand why people want to play games at 60fps has no business being anywhere near any company that deals with videogames.

He also handed every single Xbox 'exclusive' to PC because he had to show some kind of sales figures since he delivered absolutely nothing in terms of games for the console he was responsible for. The man is a fucking fraud.

@AzatiS: well PS4 exclusives. Dunno I am not enjoying games as much these days. Maybe I might not even get around to finish all the PS4 exclusives. Might even give up before that.

I do have a gaming PC, but I only use it for VR games. I don't like playing traditional games on a PC.

Xbox has been my favorite platform to play multiplats on for the past three generations due to it having the best controller and the best online service. I doubt that will change next generation so I will probably buy the next Xbox console for multiplats alone.

So says blue.

the expert.

the expertest.

You missed my edit , go check what you did say to me i copy/pasted. This poll just make sense to prove you exclusives matter more than you think. Theres no hate or any shady dissing here as you want it to be. If MS dont want to provide exclusives or time exclusives like i suggested ( not to MS , just my thoughts ) this is MS wrong not mine. This is a legit poll so we see what people in here thinking over exclusives and a new xbox with no exclusives in general.

Hmm , some strong and valid points there.

First time i see someone favor a console over the other for a controller, let alone disliking that much Sonys controller.

With that being said dont you find anything on PS exclusives likeable ? I mean youre more into the MSs holy trinity of Gears/Halo/Forza more than any Sonys game or ?

Im with you on that. Im getting less satisfaction from most games nowdays than 10+ years ago. I dont know if i have to blame the fact that im getting older and i dont see gaming as i used to OR gaming became stale and experiences feel the same over and over with very few games be able to stand out. Imho, the last few years im getting more satisfaction by playing a very good indie/indie like game than some of the best or most popular AAA games.

i will buy gtx 1180ti & 1280ti before xbox two is released to be able to play recent demand games AAA

Wow I guess it is true when a lemming told me that the majority of the lemmings that own the Xb1 is heading over to the PS5 next gen.

But then of course they’re a few die hard lemmings who don’t care about exclusives , because they rather play a game that allows them to sit on a ship and stare at the sea for hours .

I voted the first option. I find it hard to imagine wanting to buy the next Xbox if they continue putting all the Xbox games on PC. Besides that, MS 1st party hasn't been impressing me much lately anyway.

Beside gaming, I like having a desktop PC for other things. My PC from 2012 is still working with no problems, but I guess I'll probably get a new one next-gen at some point.

I started off with an Xbox One this generation. I purchased a Switch upon release and balanced my gaming time between a low end PC, Xbox One, Switch and 3DS.

I purchased most of my multi-platform games on Xbox One. Eventually I wanted to begin transitioning away from Xbox One as a number of games at the time I was interested in playing were not available on the platform such as Street Fighter V.

I decided then to build a new PC so that I could get better performance from my games and play a number of titles not available on Xbox One. At first I felt that Microsoft's decision to transition away from console exclusives was devaluing my ownership in Xbox One. And, in a way I still feel some of this.

However, what I have noticed as a PC gamer primarily now is that there are also benefits to Microsoft's model. I can still play games with my brother and other Xbox gamers and use Xbox for voice chat. While the lack of exclusivity may make the Xbox One a less interesting purchase for a PC gamer, you still benefit from being able to communicate and play with that community. Bringing parity among the two platforms is pretty cool. It means I can choose the platform I prefer without nagging drawbacks such as fractured communities.

I'll stick to PC gaming in future and consider a PS5 when it is announced.

I'll be rolling with PC, PS5, and my Switch.

Im interested in picking up a switch at some point but I'll continue wherever my friends are whether they stick with Xbox or PlayStation. I have no loyalty to any brand I think its all nonsense.

Will get an Xbox 2 at launch because I don’t do PC game. Don’t have the time for it. I want my gaming to be as plug-and-play as possible.

Will get the next Switch at launch as well.

Will get the PS5 as soon as the first worthwhile Sony exclusive comes out. My PS4 collected dust for quite some time.

I don't like playing games on PC, so if I do game it's on a console. Beyond that, if Microsoft made a really great console with an amazing service and a good UI, those could be deciding factors in choosing an exclusive-less console over the competition.

Oh, are we just saying that the games aren't exclusive because they're on Windows? Pfft, they're still exclusive.

I guess I look at it as Microsoft wanting to win back PC gamers, and appeal to their love of (for some reason) keyboard and mouse for gaming. I think they should just make keyboards and mice for the xbox, and bring out RTS and MMOs and such that use it.

yes

You know they are not :)

Best post in the thread... Xbox Won. :P

Already ? But next-gen hasnt started yet !

Forza, halo and gears.. Rinse and repeat.

Forza looks dope tho.

Hahahaaha someone is bitter about not having exclusives..lol

If they put their XBox games on PC then I see no reason to buy one. I usually prefer keyboard and mouse controls for most games and those I don't Windows has the capability to hook a controller up to anyway.

Hahahahaaaaaaaaa i don't think your PS4 has collected as much dust as your xbox one unless you are into playing garbage.

PC is as plug and play as consoles,hell you buy a already build PC and don't have to download something to make it work like it was the case with the xbox one,oh and you can even use your xbox one controller.

And many console games ask you for an update before you can play them,which is total crap.

Being walled in for no reason, why would anyone do that.

I would have skipped the PS4 if it didn't have decent exclusives, I have a PC for multiplats.

@tormentos: nah. I have this things called friends and family. We enjoy playing Halo together so we all got Xbox ones.

My PS4 became my exclusive box. Bloodborne was great and after that nothing worthwhile for quite some time.

But you know...opinions and such.

Have either of you just talked with people shopping at a Gamestop or your countries equivalent? I do, although not as much as I used to. But I have friends that work for Gamestop and I talk with them and the shoppers there when I stop into buy. Many will claim its anecdotal evidence and maybe they're right. I don't think so.

I have found that hrt_rulz01 is correct. People buying Gears 4 or Nier a year or so ago told me they don't care if those games are on PC. They have a console and have no interest in gaming on a PC. These people do not post on forums, make youtube videos, care about Digital Foundry, care how many consoles have been sold. They buy Madden COD NBA2k and the biggest games of the year like Witcher 3 or GoW if they can. Most importantly? They outnumber us and their money is just as good to corporations.

This is also the reason why once the momentum for any console starts its takes a while for there to be shift in the other direction, that is assuming if there is even a shift.

Double or nothing!

Only reasons I will buy next Xbox:

The paywall for online play is lifted

The new Halo is a revival for the franchise

Nope. I've gone with mainly the PC every single gen, and I haven't regretted a single gen so far. I did pick up a PS3 last gen, but honestly, I only ever played like 2 games I enjoyed on it, which largely was a waste of money. Probably why I haven't picked up the PS4 so far, because there are only 2 or 3 games I actually want to play.
