Start here: Xbox has sold 100% of the consoles that xbox has sold. That's 100% of 3 million. 4.2 million is 140% of 3 million. Sony has sold 140% (40% more) of the units MS has. No one who has been breathing long enough to make 17k posts on this forum should have a problem following that. If you can't, ask your parents for help... seriously. Comprehension is a life skill.

He made fun of your bad grammar... "I was mastery Trigonometry" doesn't make any sense grammatically or in context. Your inability to comprehend that from a one line sentence is astounding.

Furthermore, you're arguing about algebra. Trig, or being a 'mastery trig' has nothing to do with it. Based on all this, I'm going to say you're probably in remedial mathematics in junior high.

Protip: If you don't know what you're talking about, you're going to come off like a real big dumbass to everyone who does.

why am I looking at wave race

I've had more fun with KZ and WT than I've had with Forza and DR3. Neither KZ or DR3 are particularly strong compared to their predecessors... Forza itself feels like a stripped down demo after spending so much time with Forza 4. The lack of content makes it hard to shake the obvious feeling that the game was rushed for launch.

War Thunder is probably my favorite game on either so far... I didn't like it much on PC but the console control scheme feels like the happy medium between an unrealistic KB/M and Joystick play which really just puts you at a disadvantage vs the former.

If you've actually played everything both consoles have to offer, its much more of a toss up between which has better exclusives.

Well put. I think that their stuborness with the kinect is really their biggest hurdle right now. I don't think the technology is where they would like it to be and in extension to the problems you mentioned during the consoles development, I'm betting kinect is also behind the extended delays and difficulties MS is having launching into additional markets.

In the end MS took a shot at trying to steal back a bit of the casual crowd by incorporating TV and voice features -- but really in terms of a feature-set the X1 isn't offering much beyond what a tv tuner and a microphone could do 10 years ago. It reminds me of how Apple built up the iPhone by throwing existing technologies into a new package and marketing the crap out of it. Apple was on point with their timeline though -- the boom of smartphones -- I think MS is about 5 years too late with what their trying to push now and it definitely should be implemented better than it is at release.

Agreed. Once I played out DR3/Forza/KZ/WT (none of which are spectacular or beyond anything I've been playing on past-gen) the only thing left on either console are the multiplats. Neither console has an advantage in games right now. Early adopters are trying to justify their purchases by tearing the other system down... threads like these only serve to give a heads up on whose opinion I can disregard moving forward ;)

Not sure that applies due to the difference in price.

From my experience, there isn't a huge difference between the two right now. Since burning out on Forza last week I haven't really used my xbone lately as I bought most of my multiplats on the ps4 and I've been having a lot of fun with War Thunder.

The only reason I could see swapping one for the other if you've already picked one up at this point is to get on the same platform as your friends. Its still a crapshoot how things will turn out down the road. If you're doing it because of something you read or heard, you're probably too fickle for your own good.

This obviously isn't the death knell for Microsoft that some posters are making it out to be... but coming out of the gate behind the eight ball there's no doubt they're concerned with how their market share is going to look after the PS4 Japan launch in Feb.

If Microsoft can outpace PS4 with production they should be able to steal enough sales to keep in step by then but these next two months are going to be huge.

Thanks for the work TC.

Looking forward to it myself, but stopped reading here.

I'm primarily a PC gamer as well, but If you had friends that came over to game, you'd probably understand the value behind owning something more accessible.

Buying a gaming PC isn't financially arduous relative to a $400 console. Don't be ignorant.
