BREAKING NEWS - XBOX launch set for November 22

[QUOTE="mems_1224"][QUOTE="Chutebox"] And that is horse shit.Chutebox

You all know how much I love microsoft, but they missed a good opportunity here.  Word of mouth matters. Looks like second place for msft this gen.   Its the better system, but has too many things riding against them

Lems are admitting defeat :lol:

well it was going to get destroyed regardless so doesnt really matter if it release 1 month ahead of ps4.

[QUOTE="Chutebox"][QUOTE="blackace"] LOL!! No. I'm not seeing any huge differences at all especially when several of the PS4 titles were having problems running at 30fps @1080p. We'll see after the games finally launch. mems_1224

He brought it up because there is a difference. When the difference already shows at launch it will only get bigger as the gen goes on. You guys are paying $500 for a weaker console.

One week isn't a big deal, really -- all the consoles will be sold out already due to preorders, so impulsive sales are out the door for day one up to weeks and weeks later. For me personally, I have both preordered, but only one is going to be purchased. I'm still deciding on which one to buy, and getting my console one week early is incentive to buy.

Then again, that one week will give people a chance to see how the PS4 operates. People leaning on the fence about it and the Xbox One could get a little taste of the machine to truly see if it's for them. I was considering buying both, but only opening one and selling the other for a little profit (if I decided to keep the Xbox that could come in handy. Zing!). But I don't know. I gots some thinkin' to do.

Now for a faction diss: cows truly are just sad beings.

Rumor: "Xbox One to be released November 8th."
Cows: "Woohoo, one week. Big freaking deal. Who cares? Really? People who are buying day one already have their mind made up anyways, so it doesn't matter. One week is nothing."

Microsoft: "Xbox One to be released November 22."
Cows: "Wow! Another advantage for Sony. Microsoft messed up their last chance! Haha, TLHBO!! Praise Sony! Praise Kaz! Praise Cerny! Xbox loses! One week behind? Haha, idiots!"

I sometimes am embarrassed to call myself a gamer when I think of the idiots plaguing forums. Thank Tom Cruise you guys aren't a big deal in reality. It would suck if people thought all gamers act like you all.

Exactly what I expected. Nov. 22nd but in all 13 countries for launch. Not going to matter much as PS4 is going to cream XB1 at launch in sales so we'll see how Microsoft comes back from it next year.

Releasing one week In Europe before PS4 helps MS more thsan Sony releasing One week earlier in the US. Every single NFL game here in the states will have Xbox One plastered all over it, not to mentioin advertising during all prime time shows. Sony will have that as well, but not to the extent MS will. In Europe is helps to a small degree getting out first for word of mouth if nothing else, hands-on wise I mean.

But screw all of that, lol. PLEASE GIVE US US GAMERS FORZA 5 FREE! That would be awesome!

13th December other countries.

I'm not sure. The way they are hyping it up now sort of tells me they may still try undercut the PS4 launch date in the US.

I would honestly be suprised if it sold over 20k.

Did they say anything about Tier 2/3 countries?

I might get it in 2 years for the exclusives. Im getting a PS4 at launch for exclusives and multi-plats.

I mean... it SHOULD be out in Tier 2/3 countries in 2 years right?

Microsoft really had an opportunity here to swap up early adopters with a worldwide release before the PS4, too bad they didn't capitalize on it. Either way, happy to finally see a release date for the Xbox One!
