That's funny, because I'm a 40-year-old virgin who watches PS3 gameplay on youtube because the 360 has no games.

battlefieldfan4

:lol: i think there is games, that these games don't meet your gaming taste is a complete different case.

Oh yes, please tell me what we 360 owners are getting other than that Gears of War game that has over 800k less peorders than the last Gears game and has less than half of the pre-orders for GoW: Ascension.

I don't judge a system based on a game/exclusives or popularity,if you think a console library is based only on few games then you're doing it wrong.

Do you have a problem with Americans?

I know you Europeans are jealous of our accomplishments, but that's no reason to bash the nation with the greatest scientists, mathematicians and engineers in the world. Maybe if you guys had produced something revolutionary in the past decade, you wouldn't have such a chip on your shoulders.

battlefieldfan4

Greatest Scientists, and Mathematicians? Prove it. You realize your best are actually foreigners right?

We created the internet, the modern PC, the automobile and the airplane.

What have you Euros done?

And no. It's the homegrown Americans who are the best.

Actually Karl Benz designed the world's first practical automobile. It's funny how you mentioned internet when people like you don't even use it to educate yourself. There are too many to list regarding European inventions. Also, according to the latest studies, the US is not even in the top 10 in Math and Science.

I'll just leave this here for you to peruse the discoveries and inventions attributed to my tiny nation, which is a part of europe.

and because it's not listed I'll add Africa to that list :P

I love this one btw

"United States Navy. Created largely by John Paul Jones, who was born in Kirkcudbrightshire"

Why would they care?  What matters is when they actually unveil the damn thing and talk about it.  Then they'll start to care.

As much as I want to believe this, I don't think it's valid.

The 360 has no games, so people like me are hoping that the next xbox will come.

You're on the wrong account Brofists.  ;)

You do realize your graphs was from months ago before Sony announced their conference, right?

Rumors of an under-powered console graphically in favor of Kinect 2.0 seems to have generated a lot of negative buzz for MS lately with media outlets and hardcore gamers.

But does MS care, or in touch with what consumers wants like they did back in 2006?

I remember Sony used to be the old & out of touch corporate that don't seem to get out of its own way with statements like "PS3 will instill discipline" and "people will buy it even if it has no games" etc.. comments. But somehow they seem to have gotten their act together if the rumors of the PS3's superior hardware design relative to X720 is true.

Having said that, and if the rumors were to be taken seriously, What would you advise a company like MS for next gen?

I feel the only advice I could give is to monitor closely what happened to Nintendo, they lost the loyalty credit they had with hardcore gamers last gen with the Wii in favor of casuals.

Which served them well until the casual fad novelty ran out and now neither casuals nor hardcore gamers seem to be as interested in their new under-powered console as they did with the Wii.

Mystery_Writer

The last rumor I heard was both systems were pretty much on par with the other. This was coming from developers who are working on BOTH systems. There have been negative stories and comments for both consoles. The XBox 360 launch was a huge success. They couldn't even keep them on retail shelves. I would think Sony would be more worried then Microsoft after the PS3 launch and all the billions in loses they've had because of the system. The Xbox consoles have always had plenty of games at launch, so I don't see the problem. Microsoft always finds a way. Sony's PS3 and PSVita launches weren't good at all. So who should be worried?

 

=======================================================================

 

Kinectbox or nogamesbox.

I might get it for a blu ray player though.

Speedzilla


You can play Blu-Ray movies on it. I'll be playing games. lol!! That's pretty much what I did for the first 3-4 months on the PS3. Play Blu-Ray movies and walk around in the HOME application in disappointment. .

since the internet is nothing but a huge shytstorm of negative buzz about everything from ice cream to vaccines (which have saved hundreds of millions of lives mind you)

i'm positive  negative buzz does not mean shyt anymore.

The 720 will succeed, especially since Sony dropped core in 2006 just to go 100% movie to chase Hollywood's(lol) pot of gold.

I think xbox has a VASTLY more serious problems than power

.

1. Fable is going to the worst, and was the main reason i liked xbox

2. MS has lost Japan and does not care for JRPGs like Lost Odyssey, which made all the difference this generation

3. Alan Wake and Fable are PC games and not exclusives

4. Rare is making sports games now

5. Indie developers got the short end of the stick, with MS stopping XNA support

.

These above are like 10 billion times more important than a bit less power under the hood

if things go like the above predicted ones, i will gladly surrender my xbox fanboy leadership to the next candidate :)

But of couse maybe MS does

.

1. Fable right, like Fable 1, but in next gen form

2. Lost Odyssey and Cry On with Mistwalker

3. Alan Wake 2 and Fable 4 never go to PC

4. Rare stop sports and make Kameo 2

5. Indie developers get XNA2 that will also be compatible with XNA

.

Frankly i dont think these will happen, i just think xbox 720 case will be absolutly nothing like the spectacular xbox 360 case

If the rumors about the always online sheme are also true, then xbox 720 will probably be like non existent to me

European's have pride in their cultures they don't appreciate the mindless crap that comes out of your country which in turn is dumbing down our societies. Add in Iraq, trying to force Muslim Turkey into the EU and your believed superiority and it's no wonder most Europeans don't like America. Who cares though, it's not like it's racist since you come from here. It's a cultural and political hatred.

I'm done with Xbox.  I bought a 360 slim this gen just to give it a chance and it completely underwhelmed me.  First of all, everyone I know has had their Xbox 360 break except me because I got the slim version.  The game lineup for the 360 is by far the worst of the 3 consoles.  I bought a wireless controller for the 360 and the thing just straight up stopped working.  That has never happened to me in my life, a controller just not working.  I didn't drop it or misuse it or anything and it had only been used for like 10 hours and it just stopped working.  Not only that, I bought 4 wired controllers to use with both my 360 and my PC, and every time I plug in more than 1 of the wired controllers into my 360, each controller is recognized as player 1.  I've tried system restarts, unplugging and plugging the controllers back in, same issue.  They all show up as player 1.  I've read about the problem online and apparently it's a widespread issue.  Not only do they all show up as player 1, but only one of the controllers is allowed to even be responsive at any given time. 

Consoles breaking for no reason, worst software lineup, controllers breaking for no reason, plugging 4 separate controllers into the console only to have them all be recognized as player 1 literally rendering all 3 other controllers useless (to the extent of them not even being responsive), Xbox Live fees for no good reason other than to charge you.  I mean come on, Xbox Live doesn't give you anything extra, it's just giving you the ability to use the internet you already pay for. 

I'm a game collector and usually I buy everything no matter what if it's video game related, but Xbox is straight up garbage.

The only people dumb enough to bother with Xbox are Americans who think they're supporting an American company, even though their consoles are made in China.  GG.

Let's assume for a moment that what we know about 720 is true.

They still have a Blu Ray device with Kinect 2.0 so it will sell no matter what, they couldn't care less of what gamers think, in the end they will release Halo/Forza/Gears every year to have bro gamers happy.

In other words, they will just do the same thing they did this gen.

The people that talk negatively about something are normally the minority. If i asked your casual gamer who plays a few games and dont pay one bit of attention to anything else they would be super hyped for a new Xbox because to most that= better call of duty

I'm in the same boat as you; not impressed with Xbox at all. I've had problems with my 360 controllers too! Such defective pieces of sh!t, and the design is really poor.

Can't understand how anyone could like the 360. Like what you said, they must be stupid Americans trying to support their broken economy. Sad really.

People who actually care about games would go for PS3 or PC, because they are obviously superior in their purpose. The 360 is just there to money grab and collect some dust.

Rumors of an under-powered console graphically in favor of Kinect 2.0 seems to have generated a lot of negative buzz for MS lately with media outlets and hardcore gamers.

But does MS care, or in touch with what consumers wants like they did back in 2006?

I remember Sony used to be the old & out of touch corporate that don't seem to get out of its own way with statements like "PS3 will instill discipline" and "people will buy it even if it has no games" etc.. comments. But somehow they seem to have gotten their act together if the rumors of the PS3's superior hardware design relative to X720 is true.

Having said that, and if the rumors were to be taken seriously, What would you advise a company like MS for next gen?

I feel the only advice I could give is to monitor closely what happened to Nintendo, they lost the loyalty credit they had with hardcore gamers last gen with the Wii in favor of casuals.

Which served them well until the casual fad novelty ran out and now neither casuals nor hardcore gamers seem to be as interested in their new under-powered console as they did with the Wii.

Maybe they think they were on the right track after all xbox fans complained about Kinect and they bought the damn crappy camera. So maybe now they are face with a hardware finalize and a strategy it may not work for them,and they are just on panic thinking what to do,that survey on retail games on their facebook page doesn't help them kill the rumors about an online only console,and paint a possible Kinect included always online no second hand game 720.

I'm done with Xbox.  I bought a 360 slim this gen just to give it a chance and it completely underwhelmed me.  First of all, everyone I know has had their Xbox 360 break except me because I got the slim version.  The game lineup for the 360 is by far the worst of the 3 consoles.  I bought a wireless controller for the 360 and the thing just straight up stopped working.  That has never happened to me in my life, a controller just not working.  I didn't drop it or misuse it or anything and it had only been used for like 10 hours and it just stopped working.  Not only that, I bought 4 wired controllers to use with both my 360 and my PC, and every time I plug in more than 1 of the wired controllers into my 360, each controller is recognized as player 1.  I've tried system restarts, unplugging and plugging the controllers back in, same issue.  They all show up as player 1.  I've read about the problem online and apparently it's a widespread issue.  Not only do they all show up as player 1, but only one of the controllers is allowed to even be responsive at any given time. 

Consoles breaking for no reason, worst software lineup, controllers breaking for no reason, plugging 4 separate controllers into the console only to have them all be recognized as player 1 literally rendering all 3 other controllers useless (to the extent of them not even being responsive), Xbox Live fees for no good reason other than to charge you.  I mean come on, Xbox Live doesn't give you anything extra, it's just giving you the ability to use the internet you already pay for. 

I'm a game collector and usually I buy everything no matter what if it's video game related, but Xbox is straight up garbage.

The only people dumb enough to bother with Xbox are Americans who think they're supporting an American company, even though their consoles are made in China.  GG.

:lol: What an idiot

You are the idiot that still hasn't seen the signs. Did E3 2011 or E3 2012 not inform you enough? EXCLUSIVE Nike sponsorships? EXCLUSIVE Usher performance? EXCLUSIVE xbox SmartGlass? Studios being assigned to work on Kinect solely?

Even LoosingENDS has resigned and stopped caring about xbox. You should do the same, even if you have the slightest care about the xbox brand improving. They're headed for an iceberg...as the direction of Microsoft is as a boat with broken rudders. The time will come when you will have to haul water with not only buckets, but also your mouth. Abandon ship lemmings. :cool:

What negative buzz... a few whiners on the Internet? :?

Whatever you do, you'll have a group of Internet whiners chasing you, so don't think MS has much to worry about here.

Exactly.

Microsoft's E3 events has been nothing but apps and stupid sponsorships. You know they have no games when they had to bring in a celebrity to dance for them. Those events are supposed to be about games, for God's sake.

I'm just warning lemmings, it's never too late to take a stand against the lack of exclusives and holding your multiplayer for ransom. Buy a PlayStation 4 and Microsoft will sober up and be humbled, like Sony was humbled this gen.

LMAO I'm not buying a PS4...not gonna fall for that again. I'm gonna build a new gaming pc instead. Not even that into games anymore so I doubt I'll be getting a next gen console. You're putting too much effort into trying to convince people to fall for your agenda. Go see the sunlight for a little bit.

No way the 720 outsells the PS4 if all those negative rumors are true. Microsoft might as well not even release the 720 if they actually ban used games.

I usually try to get every console from the main companies, but based on the rumours, Durango is the one I want the least. I'll probably end up buying it anyway though. I just hope MS isn't stupid enough to go threw with some of these rumours.

The only negative buzz is a bunch of Sony fanboys being loud on a forum about rumors. Seriously you people need to get out more since there is a whole world out there that does not revolve around System Wars.

Why do I get the feeling that you're in denial that Sony is on the verge of collapsing? Oh yeah because you repeat what others say like a parrot.
