I take it this review was freelanced? Thus, it means nothing to me. I have no idea who this joker is or what his perspective on games are. One of the reasons I stick to Giant Bomb is because if a known personality isn't reviewing it, it doesn't get reviewed... and not all games need to be reviewed.
@kennythomas26 @angry_cowtipper @rocky_denace @Whiskey3romeo Well that's nice, but your reason is a non-reason. It's not as if the One isn't being sold where it's crucial that it be sold. The 360 did better than PS3 largely thanks to the North American market. Not because of Europe, Japan, South America, or anything else. The One doesn't have NA's vote this time. That is the difference. It doesn't matter if the One is not on sale in Peru, it won't help it.
@kennythomas26 @rocky_denace @Whiskey3romeo None of which are tremendous contributors to the overall sales number. The Xbox One is not going to rally ahead once it starts selling in Japan, Serbia, Honduras, Nepal, or whatever else it is you're thinking. It can't even pull off a lead in the US when Titanfall is released with it free. So, sorry, that excuse holds little water.
@rocky_denace @Whiskey3romeo I think you should take a look at exclusive lists and reevaluate your position. The only game Xbox One has that I cannot currently play elsewhere, that's a big game, is Dead Rising 3, a middling 6-8 game depending on which review you've read. It doesn't actually have the best version of Titanfall either.
The truth is, there are more games, big and small, on PS4 that I cannot play on One. And you can poo-poo indie games all you want, but they sell, and they sell big, and it's where all the innovation happens and the risks are taken. That's also why a game like Hotline Miami can get a 9 while bigger games are getting to be considered repetitive and boring.
@ladies_man_xxx @wallacom I'm not sure what your stake is in this, but all footage of this game looks incredibly bland. And it's not hard to believe that it isn't well written, given it was written by someone who has never creatively written.
