New xbox unveiled

[momo]

i preordered a ps3 but neither system is of any interest to me until a new MGS is release and a new uncharted is released.

chances are i will flip it if it will make a buck and buy one later.

It has been 147 days since my last post in this thread and I still don't know which console I am buying.

I skipped over most of the responses, but is Mario Kart coming out or not?

Their solution is to use a piece of tape. lmao

Someone please tell McClane that putting your hand over the camera doesn't shut off the mic.

the mic bugs me more than anything. i suppose if someone really is worried about being spied on, they could just unplug it when not in use.


still on the fence about buying one.. if i do it'll be for bf4

These POSs are sold out everywhere for preorder.

For that same reason that people buy Madden games and COD games... People are idiots.

Quite a few rural places still have either dialup or other significantly slower internet access with many places having a cap on usage. An always on Xbox always downloading and uploading is going to eat that up quickly. With PRISM and the always listening system, I can't pull the trigger on this one. If they made it where I could turn off and disconnect the Kinnect, maybe.

Data caps will prove to be troublesome as well. I've always been a PS3 fan. My son bought an XB360, and I picked up BF3 so I could play online with some friends from here.


I won't be buying the new XBOne, but I will purchase the new Playstation. Many people seem to agree. They (MS) are going to lose a drastic amount of market share over their arrogance with this new pile of shit. And Sony knows that. I hope all of this doesn't cause Sony to scale back on performance due to this.

Why? When are you ever without internet?

Unless you are over in irag on a military base, I really see this as a non issue.

Even my 83 year old Grandma that lives in BFE has "high speed internet."

Xbox chief: we have a product for people who can't get online, it's called Xbox 360

I put this in the other thread, but I'll put it here, too:

You know what bothers me the most, is that it feels like Microsoft is forgetting why they got into the console business with the xbox: the gamers. The reveal was such a fucking joke. Ooooh look you can watch TV with it, and we added new and different gestures for Kinect! Look, it's even fully integrated with ESPN and you can look at your dumb fantasy leagues while watching sports! You wanna see games at the reveal? Sorry, you'll have to wait until E3, because we are focusing more on the media aspect than the games on this GAME CONSOLE.

My laptop already does all that shit, minus the gestures, which I couldn't care less about. I don't buy a game console for fancy media features, so the fact that they are using this sort of DRM bullshit licensing method is really just the icing on the cake as to why I'm switching from xbox to the PS4.
