Okay, so is the Xbox One bashing getting just a little out of hand?

[QUOTE="CanYouDiglt"]It is complete Hyperbole and exaggeration now. I think the PS4 is the better choice right now but some of the stuff people are complaining about when it comes to the X1 is just getting dumb. To be fair though this forum has always had annoying Sony fanboys that hate anything Microsoft more then they like Playstion.NathanDrakeSwag

:lol: look at this M$ apologist.

You are the type of Sony fanboy I am talking about. All I ever see you do is complain about Microsoft. Did Bill Gates beat up your dad or something?

I'm getting a PS4 and I still think the Xbox One bashing is ridiculous! This may sound strange coming from a consumer, but us "saving" on used game purchases doesn't help developers. It just helps Gamestop, Best Buy, etc. I want to help developers, the creative people, to keep making games. I even think some retail chains take used games and sell them as brand new anyway. I've bought new games before that didn't have the seal/sticker on them. I rather have developers/publishers rip me off instead of retail outlets. headninjadog

If all the bashing, hate and disinterest manages to change Microsofts arrogant stance than no.

The main reason it is getting bashed is because people are afraid of where media is going in the future. I might not love it but I will accept it so I do not lose out on great games. The other big reasons are people do not fully understand or research what they are doing and spread blind fan boy hate.

That game was great. I was a huge fan of the movie before the game and when I saw that it was being made into a game it was like gamer porn for me.

The fact MS hasn't gotten the picture yet proves to me the hate isn't strong enough. Maybe once they see their sale's numbers.

Hopefully the bashing is just getting warmed up.  Microsoft needs to get kicked in the nuts and thrown out of the gaming industry A.S.A.P.  I believe in healthy competition, but Microsoft is a cancer that needs to be removed.  I'd rather see Sony and Nintendo, 2 companies that I respect, go at it.

Yeah.....I think MS have just lost the plot PR wise for the console But if the console resulted in cheaper games prices and give us an offline mode (like, you know, steam) Id have no issues with it at all

Yeah, I replayed the game after watching the movie and you could tell Rockstar were big fans of it. This is one of the very few examples where a movie game is made with care, without a deadline and doesn't suck.

Microsoft is practicing market protectionism under the guise of new technology. There are literally dozens of ways they could have kept the status quo while pushing the cloud technology. They saw a chance to give publishers a bite of the used game cake and they took it. So yes, It deserves the hate it is getting. My guess is that microsoft assumed that Sony was going to do the same thing thus giving them the advantage by pushing cloud technology. Sony didn't restrict used game sales so now Microsoft is having to go into serious damage control. They took a massive gamble on an assumption and lost.

It's a few days after E3, they haven't lost yet. What's wrong with trying to get more money for the publishers, ont this mean better games. Give us offline mode before launch and cheaper digital games and we will be praising what they have done in a years time.

No, I don't think it's gotten out of hand. If the xbone is successful, it's going to give corporations the go ahead to implement these shit policies, and they will become mainstream. Being loud and obnoxious is a necessity.

Eh it's really just a loud minority. We'll see how it will do 6 months after the launch. 

ninjapirate2000
Same kind of loud minority that ended up being over half of Sonys 6th gen userbase? I actually predict this as being much worse. What I find funny about all this though is how far out of the way some people go to defend a corporate brand.

Xbox One is the new EA, it's the new CoD, it's the new Diablo 3, it's the new fun thing for mindless sheep to bash without actually using their own brain to decide whether they themselves like it, or care about the issues. They just go along with the status quo so that they can fit in with all of the boring people who pad out Reddit and Neogaf and all have the same sense of humour and the same opinions on everything because they're scared someone on the internet might disagree with them or make them feel bad. This is how it'll go for the next few years: Someone said something bad about Xbox One no matter how ridiculous it is or how credible the source is? Lol funnay, they the best, good job, M$ sucks! Someone dared to say that maybe, just maybe, Microsoft haven't been buying supplies of Agent Orange to package inside all Xbox Ones, releasing deadly nerve gas upon us all? UR A DUMB FANBOY LEMMING SONY RULES.

Nope. MS deserves it. 

Instead of going forward, they've decided to go "backwards" at the expense of the consumers/gamers. 

Original XBOX and 360 were great consoles, XBOXone is simply a slap in the face.

No. M$ needs to realise that they ****ed up. The X1 needs to be canceled and they can just start the hell over or leave the industry. They deserve to pay for their Anti-consumer policies. The people in charge of said policies need to be fired.

I'm not paying $500 to deal with all the bullshit Microsoft is trying to put me through when I can just pay $400 for a PS4 which has better hardware and more potential. That's about it from me. Otherwise I think the Xbone is actually a good device. It just comes with too many rules for the consumer. Take away the rules and people would want one.

I haven't seen anything unreasonable or excessive considering what has transpired. 

Now if the PS4 was like the Xbone  and the Xbone was like the PS4 on the other hand, it would likely be 100 times worse.

Exactly :lol:

So far, I doesn't even get close to topping the 2006-2008 years of PS3.

If it was the PS4, Everyone and their mother would be trolling the hell out of it. Hermits/Lemmings/Sheeps/pics/gifs/charts/alts/and even Mods included

From http://forum.beyond3d.com/showpost.php?p=1752918&postcount=15

Xbox One and PS4 have no advantage over the other says RedLynx Trials creative director Antti Ilvessuo believes both next-generation consoles to be on par in terms of power. "The Xbox One and PS4 are on a equal footing according to Trials creative director Antti Ilvessuo. Speaking to VideoGamer.com at E3, Ilvessuo said: " Obviously we have been developing this game for a while and you can see the comparisons. I would say if you know how to use the platform they are both very powerful. I don't see a benefit over the other with any of the consoles." Ilvessuo also explained that "It all depends on how you use the platform and how you use it right. That's the thing." On the subject of used games, the man behind Trials also believed that 'developers can't really worry about that [side of things]' and that it was a matter for 'different people' to sort out."

Xbone will all come down to whether or not MS is capable of giving gamers a trade off they will like for the policies they have put in place. *If* the push for digital downloads creates a marketplace in which most games are $30 or less, and there are redonkulously good sales with dirt-cheap, quality games just like Steam - all will be forgiven. Nobody cares that they cant trade in their version of Alan Wake on Steam when they got it for $3. It's a very big IF though. Sadly I think it's more than likely MS will just adopt the Steam model but keep charging $60 a pop. This is MS we're talking about.

Are you kidding, it should be getting s*** on more, it's taking away consumer rights.
