I'm not even trolling, what the fuck are they doing? In a world where people don't give a shit about Call of Duty anymore there is no way in hell they can keep feeding is Gears, Halo, and Forza.
The Scorpio reveal better blow the fuck out of Sony harder than FFXIII 360 E3 reveal
Liam Morales
Xbox seems lost.

The original Xbox was literally the worst thing that ever happened to gaming, it was basically the casual gateway that all the cancer comes through.
John Myers
Why would anyone even buy a Xbox anymore now that all their exclusives go to PC?
Josiah Smith
He literally mentioned Uncharted in his post you blind fuck
Don't embarrass yourself like that again
Nathan Sanchez
They got sabotaged
Ian Long
Halo is fucked. Gears was almost fucked with Judgement but the Coalition did a decent job saving it. Forza goes good but nobody outside of driving fans care.
They have been trying more than they were last gen but can't seem to get it right with their new IPs outside of Ori and the blind forest, and that's an indie game. Sunset Overdrive is owned by Insomniac
Christian Sullivan
Because console users can't into building a pc and need a designated gaming box
So really they choose between the stronger scorpio or the weaker pro

You do realize the Xbox One has been outselling the PS4 in America for the last 3 months, right?
Jordan Brooks

Landon King

Matthew Hernandez
Poorfags and Halocucks still exist so...
Ryan White
Outselling the competition in 1/4 of the global market isn't significant?
Ethan Garcia
That makes no fucking sense when PS2 sold a shit load more the OG Xbox and on top of that the fucking Wii exists.
Brody Mitchell
Sony got that good weeb shit brah. >Ace Combat >Gravity Rush 2 >Nier Automata
Chase Miller
Yes. That place where people have money to blow on useless shit.
Andrew Harris
I don't think that Microsoft is hoping that the scorpio will save the brand. I think they are updating the console because they feel the need to. The next gen will decide Xboxs fate. If it doesnt beat sony or at least come close, Microsoft will likely kill off the brand or sell it off to appease their investors.
The xbox live division of Microsoft has never turned a profit even with the paid online for all these years. So with the xbox on the down trend there is more pressure then ever to kill it.
Ryder Edwards
Until the just announced games release, if they're exclusive, Xbone was the better console. I sold mine for a is4 and really regret it.
Now there's like 5 games I'm half way interested in, but there's no way I'm buying them for more than 20 quid.
Meanwhile I could have been playing Forza instead of the turf that is Driveclub.
I'd buy GT on release, but my "official Gran Turismo 5 wheel" doesn't even fucking work on the PS4 for no reason at all.
Jacob Barnes
no.
Ryan Ross
It will be if they beat them Worldwide. Because you know video games are a global industry
Owen Smith
xbox can't go home
Ian Murphy
I think they're doing alright at the moment and I am excited for their releases, this is coming from an idort.
Jeremiah Sanchez
yeah but you're an idort. your judgement is very questionable
Charles Robinson
Cus the only good xbox game has is REZ HD and the rest of the good "exclusives" is on pc
John Cooper
OG Xbox provoked competition which has been great for pretty much everyone. 360 even moreso.
You can't seriously think the PS4 would be as good as it is without microsoft competing with sony do you?
Connor Richardson
I couldn't agree more. Competition is great for the consumer and is important for product quality and pricing.
Gavin Reyes
Here's some proof to prove I'm not rusing. PC under desk but too dark.
I just like MS games and I'm excited for state of decay 2, Sea of Thieves, crackdown 3 and Scalebound.
I think all big three have a good line up, well, I'm hoping ninty have a good switch lineup.
Samuel Miller
No, you're thinking of the PS2.
Dominic Howard
no one doubted that you were dumb enough to buy both an xbox and a playstation, retard
Landon Jenkins
Got the PS4 at launch and got the xbone recently very cheap.
They've both been good to me and I'm having fun playing games.
Connor Rodriguez
Just because you are a NEET with no money but your grandma food stamp card doesn't mean everyone else is BITCH
Julian Roberts
i spend my money on my car's audio system it's even louder than your mom's moaning as i bang her in the back seat - and let me tell you, speakers like that don't come cheap
Zachary Peterson
Halo was a fluke. Xbone and 360 should never have existed. XBAWKS HEUG should flopped
Austin Hall
Shit man trolling aside, why would you do it in your car you clearly care about.
Shit son you'd get stank on your seats and shit
Sebastian Flores
Don't defend yourself to scum like that bro. You have to have a worthless fucking life to post a comment like that.
Mason Campbell
well obviously i put down a tarp first, i wouldn't want your mom's butt on the upholstery
Tyler Hernandez
its astounding the double down that microsoft has done. They had some legitimate interesting original IPs but have trashed them all for halos and GoW over and over and over. I assume that when scorpio fails, because its going to. They already are planned to just dump everything to PC and forget xbox ever existed
Isaiah Howard
Halo is the only thing Xbox has and it isn't even good anymore so I see no reason to get an xbone. I would love to dabble in some halo remasters but oh well.
Kayden Sullivan
It's fine senpai
I've been here for too long and I know the ropes far too well. Late night threads are usually betterfor discussion.

Jacob Nguyen
lol holy shit what're you like 12? Cause if you are any older than that I actually feel bad that the world has to suffer your existence the rest of your miserable life. Yeesh kid go outside and get some sun and scope some chicks or dudes you know whatever you are into is cool.
Samuel Carter
Bungie and Sega saved Xboxhueg.
Noah Hughes
Hueg will always be the DC2 to me.
Jack Nguyen
I bought XONE as my maing gaming platform. I got to the point where owning a gaming PC is just not worth it for the price and XONE provies good enough experience.
I don't care about that PC gets XONE games, I can play them regardless.
Connor Parker
They released some of their best stuff on Hueg. Since you can't emulate any of it it's still worth having one.
Ian Wilson
>The fuck does Xbox have?
Scalebound, Sea of thieves, crackdown...
I can guess your response
>All shit
Well sonycuck TLG, Horizon, and cuckman are all shit too ;)
Sebastian Thomas
>for the price PC is way cheaper and has more options. There's no contest. The only reason to get consoles is for exclusives. Once this gen ends I'll be scooping up the xboner and ps4 nd the handful of exclusives if I don't smell remasters or ports on the horizon.
Ayden Martin
>Halocucks
Do they? You'd think they would've abandoned ship in droves after the MCC.
Parker Foster
>only reason In comparison to pc? Hassle user, in fact it's probably the biggest reason.
Jace Fisher
You're wrong user because Halo 5 is the best multiplayer since Halo 2
Xavier Hughes
being a halofag is a stain that doesn't come off, even if the series got so bad that even they can't defend it.
Joshua Nguyen
>not worth the price
You're a retard, PC saves more in the long run I just bought a 480 which is heaps more powerful than the PS4 pro and Scopio combined and it cost half the price I can max every port they offer plus have great FPS on exclusive titles
Christopher Long
PC requires know how in how to build it so yea.
Though pc would be cheaper if you plan on going online on the xbone and if you pirate a couple of games to equalize the cost.
Still mainstream advertising and having it in one box without needing to lift a finger is attractive to consumers
You don't exactly see nvidia or intel advertising parts to the mainstream or maxing compact boxes with support
Camden Russell
>hassle True. Thanks for reminding me how much better I am than everyone else.
David Moore
>PC requires know how in how to build it so yea.
Not really. It requires putting a configuration together online and maybe running it through a tech forum of some kind to see it won't explode on you. You can probably pay a little extra to the shop in order to build it. Real cancer are premades where people don't even know what hardware they have.
People also dismiss PC pays itself off the more and more you actually play games because they're, on average, 20% cheaper on PC than one consoles if you know where to buy. I'm not even talking grey market like G2A or anything. Not to mention regular deep discounts. It really piles together when you realize you're not paying $60 for each new game.
Kevin Diaz
Cuckpio isn't gonna save 'em. They never really understood why they got blown out in the first place.
Carter White
>Scalebound, Sea of thieves, crackdown...
You mean multiplats also coming to PC? I don't really care either way, but console players love to brag with their CONSOLE exclusives.
Charles Hall
>You mean multiplats also coming to PC?
You mean games that aren't going to ps4 at all?
Landon Hughes
> what the fuck are they doing? selling more consoles
Jaxon Brooks
>Scalebound
Has potential but the last 2 times they have showed it looks really disappointing
>Sea of thieves Looks interesting and I'm glad Rare are making proper games again, but I'm not sure if it will catch on, and that's a game that needs to catch on just to work
>crackdown Has never been relevant outside of including a demo for Halo, not saying it's bad but or anything but just a franchise not many people care about
Gavin Hughes
Actually, I think they know exactly why the ps4 has sold twice as many. Its really very simple even stupid fucks on Sup Forums get it. It came down to two things ultimately.
Number one being the price. If the xbox had been unbundled with kinect and sold for 350 or 400. It would have done much better.
Number two and I think this point is the most important factor in why they lost the gen. Microsoft completely underestimated the publics attention and knowledge to the fact that it would be less powerful and more expensive. It was a massive blunder. One of which they won't commit again.
Ayden Ortiz
So instead it'll be more powerful, more expensive and late. Sounds familiar.
Joseph Moore
Rare is isn't even Rare anymore. All the old devs are gone.
Crackdown is an inexplicable success to me. I have the first one, and it's ok, but I never understood how it made it this far. The destruction in 3 is pretty appealing, though.
Alexander Price
After the Xbone reveal, nothing would have made it sell better than the ps4. They did EVERYTHING wrong, it was hilarious.
Colton Collins
These games were announced 2-3 years ago. Still nothing new since then. It's really sad.
Sebastian Lewis
If they don't sell squat shit in other regions, then no not really. They really have truly pathetic sales in the rest of the world. Like, they're almost not selling whatsoever no exaggeration.
America are the only ones buying Xboxes. And to be frank I don't know why they even sell in America. It's pretty much redundancy the console.
Julian Campbell
They cancelled one game I was interested in.
Gavin Nelson
Yeah, because everyone already has a PS4. It's not like there's an infinite pool of buyers for consoles.
Leo Smith
I feel your pain.
Sebastian Flores
You're thinking of the Atari
Elijah Adams
>there is no way in hell they can keep feeding is Gears, Halo, and Forza. Mario Zelda Metroid Animal crossing Final fantasy
Jordan Powell
As I said before I don't think they're hoping the scorpio will save the brand. Just an update for the diehards to keep them happy. Next gen will determine if xbox lives or dies.
I hope it doesn't die. Competition is good for consumers.
Anthony Rogers
People legitimately buy Gears, halo, and Forza though. Not to mention that a good portion of the Xbone market are FIFA/Madden gamers who will never hesitate to buy the next new CoD.
Jaxon Green
Hardware competition isn't good for anyone. All it has done is fragmented the industry so that games cost even more to make and we get shit like exclusive platform content.
Software competition on one platform is all we need. If you are worried about consoles costing $600 then don't be because the industry would just be ignored until price became reasonable for mass market.
Liam Green
here. Agreed.
Grayson Jenkins
I disagree. Maybe when the consoles were entirely different architecture wise that argument would apply. But since now that Sony and Microsoft are using basically off the shelf pc parts they arent so different to develope for and far less challenging at that.
Nathan Williams
This is false. All companies have to still maintain sperate teams for XBox and PS4 development for dev and QA. This shit is not cheap and a total waste of resources.
Game quality had gone to total shit for multi platform games as a result.
The movie and music industry competes on content, not on format and there is zero reason for the gaming industry to be competing on format and content.
Ayden Kelly
The original nintendo which was successful enough to jump start console gaming again did cost around 650$ in 2016 dollars. Really the only time they weren't that out ragestly expensive is when more than one console was on the market at a time.
David Hughes
>zero reason for the gaming industry to be competing on format and content. Except movies and music can't be watched or listened to in new exciting ways. Calling all the variety of products that fall under the "game" umbrella just 'games" is really selling them short.
i will agree that the current consoles are so similar as to be pointless, though.
Brayden Miller
it wasn't cancelled, development just halted for some weird reason. it's set for release next year
Jeremiah Mitchell
Right and so new movies and music should obviously be good right? lol
As I said the new consoles are more similar in terms of silicon design than any other gen before. And they are only going to become more similar as time goes on. AAA titles are shit because the dev and publishers are for more concerned with milking every last dollar out of their IPs and are less concerned with the actual quality of their product. I would agree more with you if the two consoles in question were the previous gen considering the vast differences in terms of architecture. Even then I would still mostly disagree. But thank you for responding amicably.
Andrew Kelly
It's nice to see microsofts souless tactics are finally biting them in the ass. The halogearsforza, paying for timed content on multiplats instead of in house studio games, anti consumer tactics with xbone reveal. The list goes on. This time microsoft can't just throw infinite money and hope for first place. Cant wait for them to dissapear from the market.
Cameron Jones
Microsoft has all the assets from Rare to everything else yet they somehow manage to shoot themshelves on the foot every single time
Adam Foster
The next-gen will be their next big attempt. The initial announcement of the One is still biting them in the ass. Sony basically won on that one day.
Microsoft is going to change the branding of their Xbox to be a prebuilt PC for gaming. They are already integrating the two platforms, and it's only a matter of time before they are one and the same. They will probably just try to push the raw power angle harder, realizing that they have mostly lost the exclusives front.
Ian Ramirez
>he doesn't like the original halos scum
Christian Wood
>You mean multiplats also coming to PC Xbox is owned by Microsoft. Microsoft owns Windows.
