MS: "If You Are Buying A Console This Holiday, You Are Buying An Xbox One"

Meh, I put eight and a half hours into the campaign and I didnt even bother looking for intel files or skulls. Its not crazy to think some people put that much time into the campaign.

The official numbers right now are 29 million PS4 shipped to 10 million xbone shipped. The gap is gonna grow over the holidays with those CoD and Star Wars bundles.

I think the xbox one is probably closer to 15 million right now using the shipment data MS has provided throughout the year.The gap is probably not going to be 3X for awhile and the xbox one shipped numbers you are using are months out of date.

Santa has denounced the Xbone.

well, no, its not crazy at all, i personally try to 100% every map on my first PT, that takes much longer than if you were to run from an objective to another. But that is not to say that Halo 5 isn't a short game and 343i lied about their "twice biggest than Halo 4" part. I see a bunch of people saying "bu bu but if you played on legendary it would've taken you much longer" NOT SHIT Sherlock!!!!!!! You know what would've taken even longer? if i played blind folded... Normal difficulty is what EVERY game's length should be judged on. If it takes you under 5h to complete, we have a problem. And we do have a problem with Halo 5. Mediocre length, story and graphics. The only thing it succeeds on is gameplay. Now you may say that lol gameplay>all but what about having everything? Is this too much asking from 343i? i think so.

@mems_1224: I'm a super-fast typer, I can say a few things.

Peculiar off topic picture. At this point there are hundreds of sad marketing PR blunders and lies out there to laugh at across all the major companies, but my post was concerning today's news and thread.

Yeah, I remember that old WatchDogs thread too about those dumb PR Sony hacks (probably a shitty intern unlike Greenberg who is a master). That was an old thread many of us enjoyed. Now, a longtime later we are in this thread. That older news item though doesn't change anything said though about this Greenberg Marketing lying topic in this thread. I am however flattered that my rock solid ON TOPIC post drew your attention to post off topic much older PR examples we've all discussed in the past (including that lolWatchDogs Sony PR picture which was deleted by Sony as well, unlike the actual LIES in this PR statement that Greenberg will never retract). If you want to read me talk about that stupid Sony PR, I have no problem discussing it in a relevant thread or PM (It's old, and I discussed it then but tl;dr, it's stupid marketing Sony PR shit), but I was addressing this Greenturd topic today.

It's not like I'm related to any of these marketing dicks nor is my artistic work on display. I have no skin in the game.

Maybe a few years from now someone will refer to Greenberg's lies today as you are bringing up PR blunders from yesteryear.

Also, you were wrong about Gran Turismo a few weeks back, I still remember. I don't like GT and I never did, lol. For that matter I hate racers. I'm noticing a trend where you rely on scarecrow fallacies to make your points. Both with the GT and now WatchDogs. I guess that's your main M.O. is to bring up older random guesses/games/news instead of tackling the subject matter.

Kudos though for some accuracy unlike the last time. Although previously discussed in a few threads back then, you did choose to catch up and submit an older WatchDogs PR example picture that was previously discussed and loled at ad nauseum.

I wonder if in that old WatchDogs PR blunder Sony thread if you were off topic then as well. Perhaps you were talking about an even older PR example back then which has me wonder if perhaps in a year(s) you will finally be discussing what Greenberg said today in a future PR thread a few years from now. That's the spirit! :P

Still, while discussing older news your approach is better than the last time you randomly and poorly/inaccurately guessed about Gran Turismo in a Forza which didn't pan out. I still don't like either game, but as luck would have it I have more Forza games in my collection.

I mean, I've beaten every halo campaign on normal in about 5 hours.

Its 343 so anything is asking too much.

Lies. Halo CE wasn't short and nowhere near as face rolling on your first playthrough as Halo 5. The only Halo game that is this short or even shorter is ODST which is just an expansion.

dude, go play those games again. they're short as **** and super easy on normal. 8ish hours on heroic is about the same that i've gotten out of every halo campaign. Thats more than most FPS games.

@mems_1224: anything can feel short n easy when you've played them so much that you could run through them while watching stuff on youtube. That wasn't the case on your first PT.

sure it was. me an my cousin beat the first halo game in an afternoon co-op our first time through on normal.

Nope http://howlongtobeat.com/game.php?id=4270
Now check halo 5, its on a completely another level. Halo 5 is CoD length which is pathetic, literally. Never did anyone mentioned Halo CE being too short.

Is Halo 5 really that short omg games are getting to short that's like just getting taste and being denied the rest

lol what a bunch of lies MS, not even the most stupid gamer fall for this bullcrap

halo is no more!

Wow does that mean nobody is buying a console this holiday?

Lol, that's when you think they haven't sold any Xbox One's since they announced that 10mil number... Sure if you truly believe that, then indeed it's 3:1, but at the same time you are showing how foolish you are.

dude, for the story they were trying to tell the campaign was too long imo. about 6 missions in the middle of the game are Fireteam Osiris literally doing nothing. Its probably one of the worst Halo campaigns but its still very far from bad or short. Its alright, nothing more, nothing less. It has really cool and well directed cutscenes, very good level design with different paths and options and Im glad the story didn't go where I thought it would.

LOL

The big PS4 holiday exclusives according to a PS4 advert that I saw:

CoD timed DLC

Ass Creed exclusive missions

Uncharted: Stripped Content Edition

#For the Players

#Greatness Awaits

I'd rather have a company brag about facts than flat out lie like Soony has done since the PS4 launch.

lol

Wow Xbox One is a hot topic here it seems these days lol....all that for a 350$ console

I don't think so. They haven't sold and shipped enough in either the US and UK to get anywhere near 18 million to customers and 20 million shipped yet. It's most likely anywhere between 14-16 million shipped and maybe even sold right now.It should be closer to 20 million shipped/sold by the end of this holiday season.

It's about time. It's equivalent to putting a lump of coal in your Christmas stocking.

May the salt be with you always.

Hitler always said "If you're going to lie, lie big"

Like Killzone?

Oh wait, Halo made 400 million almost half a billion in its first week I forgot.

I own a PS4 and I'm buying another PS4 this holiday. Screw Xbox.

Halo 5.... rich story.... how did this guy get a completely different version of Halo 5 to me? I want HIS version.

No they won't.

PS4 will dominate as usual.

Blood Hell.. this thread just made me laugh and fart the same time. LMAO

I certainly am not.

I'm not I already have one but guess what wiiu has more exclusive games I like and that's a fact you can't bear Mario party mariokart dkc Kirby yoshi Mario Bros Mario 3d world nslu sonic 3d world ssbb Mario maker Zelda if you think you can with just three forzas one gears five halo f

Games good luck!

I mean, unless we're just going to discount the largest online retailer on the planet which millions upon millions of people actively use...then I'd say Amazon sales definitely count.

@Legend002: .. This thread has been destroyed..

We're done here..

Sorry Microsoft already bought a PS4 when Amazon had a glitch deal.
