Cuphead Sells Over 1 Million Copies Already On PC And Xbox One

@ronaldmcreagan: That's a terrible idea, man and I'd strongly advise you to try building a similar mini-desktop if you're willing to spend money and time (even though the size will still be much bigger than a console). You'll get far better specs for that money (a GTX 1050 won't get you very far in demanding games if you're targeting 60 frames, a 1060 would be ideal). Also, a laptop, even a 15-incher is wider than a console, only the height is lower (most of the time) and if you'll be running it with the lid closed down in a fairly enclosed space, you'll 100% run into heat problems very soon, doesn't matter which laptop it is.

The Xbox One also won't be a reliable 60 frames machine, because of that terrible CPU it has and I highly doubt that demanding non-first party titles will bother to optimize for frame-rate over visuals. Rise of the Tomb raider got a 60 fps mode, but it's still pretty unstable on the X (and that's not a CPU-heavy game, unlike many open world ones or physics-heavy ones for example). For 500€ it does offer value and can deliver great visuals, but if you're really fixed on 60 fps and don't care much for anything else (while also having money to spend), a mini-PC would be the better choice.

@neoistheone: 1. Downloads depend on your connection speed. A 60 GB game takes me about 3 hours to fully download, but I can start playing it after an hour or less. And then I play and download simultaneously.

2. Xbox One depends on its CPU, right? Well, PS4 is wired differently. As I understand it, it relies equally on its CPU and GPU, so any latency issue is smoothed out by this collaborative effort by the hardware. And in any case, we're talking about a difference of microseconds here, so a 40ms difference is negligible since it's compensated for by the PS4 hardware. You won't notice the difference with the naked eye.

3. The PS4 controller is designed to fit in your hand. The Xbox controller is like a cardboard box with buttons that are distributed in an insanely uncomfortable and illogical way. And having to swap batteries sounds a lot more like the 90's to me than to simply keep on playing plugged in for a while, and then unplugging again when the controller's charged. I always play plugged in because I'm sitting right next to my PS4, but that's a personal choice and not something that's necessary.

4. PS4 fully supports 4k. Xbox One doesn't. You can brush that fact under the carpet if you want to, but that would be dishonest.

Both these consoles share a lot of similarities, and both are valid options if you don't care about which has the better library of games (PS4). But the PS4 is elegant and sexy, whereas Xbox One is a slab of ugly plastic concrete.

@davillain-: I’m not disputing any of that dude, I’m simply saying there’s a difference between an excuse and a reason. An excuse is usually a cop-out whereas a reason is a bonafide justification for doing/not doing something.

I’d say this guy had a reason not to like the game.
