@Phatjam98 yup in the same boat here. I spend a good couple thousand on my pc's but I also use them for programming and graphics. When I was younger and shelling out double the money on a pc compared to a ps or xbox was when I started to think that maybe I should do more with my pc than just play games! I love pc and programming but hate gaming on them. Always errors or downloading patches and forget just plugging in a mic and talking. Console makes gaming easy, just turn it on and play.
First day at E3 waiting for west hall to open. Huge mob formed up in lines. Special side entrances guarded by security to allow top execs and press into the show early. What does a group of Nintendo execs do? Push their way right up the freakin middle! Nintendo your problem isn't marketing it is your stupid inconsiderate executives who do not observe their surroundings! Maybe instead of pushing the little guy out of your way, you should stop and ask them how to win their business.
I call BS on this report! First the policies change and now all of the sudden the units are all sold out at stores....hmmm. Its ok MS I can wait till the price drops. No big rush this year for a new console!
Since you have disrespected the gamer Microsoft and turned 180 on policy then why don't you do one better and sell us the console for 299.99! Show us you actually care! And give us a LIFETIME warranty on the system!
Both systems and their game line ups sucked this year at E3! Xbox 1 had only 1 amazing title to show off and it was forza 5. The graphics, shading and handling blew away ps4 gran turismo 6. Bad thing about xbox is they are a control freak with their used games policy and always on crap. ps4 had nothing to offer but charging you for a bunch of games that are already free to play on pc. Both of these companies are going to take your money and run! This really sucks after playing on console for the past 12 years trying to switch back to pc. Now I have to go back and deal with errors and please update drivers or system not compatible or failed loading. Thanks Microsoft! Thanks Sony! You freakin greedy plicks!
While I don't care about used games I have to say this is a pretty f'ed up business model! To put any restrictions on what a person can do with their property including resale is total BS!
Just basing my argument on the hard drive I say this guy is wrong. PC has up to 2 TB of hard drive space with options to add more and even have removable drives this system is stuck with 500gb. To make users fully install games that 500gb is going to get eaten up real quick! If that 500 gb hard drive isn't SSD then again this new xbox is behind the times. SATA3 6gb a sec...very nice!!!
Microsoft your over control is going to be the death of you! WTF are you thinking giving us a limited hard drive and making us install the games! Since the release of the 360 I have a library of a hundred games. Average them at 10 gb of space and I just ran through the full hard drive. Top it with all the dlc content and that's another 30 gb of space! Hard drive space on a pc is no issue for me because I can easily go buy another hard drive and install, part and format. If you think I am going to buy your box that I can't modify and be forced to add and delete games then you are seriously smoking crack!
You know Microsoft you are getting to be a real pain in the ass! First you launch a crappy OS every other year(ME, Vista, windows 8) and now you want to screw with the game console side with always online. WTF is wrong with you guys!? Give me the job of CEO at 60k and even I will make better freakin decisions than bald bomber! That guy is gonna crash your company!
