I will buy xbox only if they have a new Spyro, Banjo Kazooie, Conker, Sky Odyssey, Front Mission, Chrono Cross, Driver, Mega Man, Final Fantasy, Twisted Metal, Metal of Honor, Silent Hill, Socom, SSX, BMXXX and Shadow of the colossus.

Those are my demands. Otherwise Xbox is dead to me. ALSO after I'm done playing those game id either sell it or smash it. Whatever arouses my interest first.

So... nothing, then? Since a couple of your demanded games are owned by Sony, and will never appear on anything but playstation? Except for that one time, on PC.
pretty muchWhile I'm not a cow, that is complete BS. First off, Halo is repetitive. While I bought my first Halo disc before any of you and enjoyed the series a lot, its getting old and is time to move on. Secondly, Project Gotham Racing blew Forza out of the water. The only thing that made Forza stand out was custom paint jobs. Finally, Gears is boring. Epic's best series was Unreal whether it was Unreal Tournament on the PC or the Xbox exclusive Unreal Championship series. Problem is though, today's console gamer doesn't like a challenge and cannot handle a learning curve. They would much rather race for overpowered super weapons, spam Retro Lancers and Sawed Off Shotguns.my point was about having 3 critically acclaimed franchises that sony has no answer for.[QUOTE="Murderstyle75"][QUOTE="Riverwolf007"]
cows can ridicule gearsforzahalo all they want but that has never changed the fact that gearsforzahalo is the best 3rd person shooter, 1st person shooter and racer out on consoles.
three huge genres on lock is plenty of reason to get an x1.
maybe those franchises will fall for good this gen and most likely they will but as it stands right this second those are 3 genres with wild critical acclaim that the ps4 simply does not have a match for.

how does anything you said dispute that?

Because critically acclaimed doesn't mean jack shit. Especially since critic opinions are often times swayed by marketing. Reviewers have been fired for writing bad reviews of games belonging to marketing partners. Just ask Jeff Gerstmann why he was fired from Gamespot. Critically acclaimed media is usually due to nothing more than marketing hype and casual mainstream popularity. Saying these games are good based on critic opinions is like saying Nicki Minaj and Justin Beiber are great because they sell millions of records and win music awards.I'm really reconsidering my pre order for sony and might change to xbox one because Xbone is overall the better system. or I might pick up both on day one.Â
$250 cheaper. I have nothing against the Xbox1 or its price, but it's just not ging to be a launch console for me this year. I'll pick it up in a couple of years and in the meantime enjoy my PC and PS4(launch).
I want the fable the we were promised by peter time and time again but never got. Also I want games that anren't just shooters or racers. Also M$ must rebuild rare and give us a proper banjo game and a proper perfect dark. It needs to be $200 cheaper before I'll buy one.Â
None of the option in that poll is what bothers me with the x180.
The only thing that keeps me from buying it (after the famous 180) is the Kinect! Not because of privacy things, but because its an accessory i would end up never using.
A 400$ x180 without kinect would make me consider it (even knowing the specs are inferior and the HDD is non-replaceable).
I like normal-controller-holding-gaming and i dont care for gimmicks (shouting or gesturing at the TV is silly for me).
The other problem is the voice commands, it sounds pretty in theory but in practice it might be a pain, mainly for non-english languages. My language is extremely nasal and many (MANY) words have more than 5 different meanings.
How would that work? Could the OS be set to a language and the voice commands to English? Would it be fair for those not very familiar with the English language?
Too many questions unanswered to consider it, the console seems to be designed mainly for America.
Shenmue 3 and/or a proper (as in not $50) price dropMcStrongfastMmm...Shenmue 3 do want but probably will not get D:
Altready have mine pre-ordered! The XBOX ONE to me is more a jump in technology than the PS4. The Kinect 2.0 functionality, cloud processing, XBOX Live still being superior to PSN, the XBOX controller, better exclusives for my tastes and its the console that all of my gaming friends are getting. The Sony fanboys just keep pulling the "our GPU is more powerful card", but it is really like beating a dead horse because these specs that they are relying on are still only hypothetical numbers. Just because the power is there, it doesn't mean that every single developer will tap them. I seriously, seriously doubt that outside of a couple of first party games will we see this gap is graphical fidelity that the Cows think there is going to be and even at that, it wont come until the later part of this upcoming generation. I look at it this way, we have had some beautiful games this past generation and both of these new consoles far surpass what we have seen over the course of the last 8 years, so I dont worry about this "graphical superiority" that the Cows love to hang their hat on!ShoTTyMcNaDeSSame here. Pre ordered and looking forward to dr3, qb, Witcher3. Gonna get ps4 as well because I can and have gotten both offerings for past two gens, and they have served me well. As for this graphical difference, spare me. I agree with u shotty, the difference won't be enough to make me alter what has been a very satisfying gaming strategy for over ten years now.
I can't think of anything that would make me buy a console at launch. I'll wait until the inevitable price drop, when it actually has a quality library, if ever. meetroid8While I wouldn't wait as long as for a price drop, I definitely don't see any reason to buy at launch. Doing so means you are blindly jumping in.
Remove kinect and drop the price $100
I dont want to be forced to buy crappy motion controls and have the governent and microsoft watch my every move.
Ill buy an Xbox One if they instead added wood inside the console so I could watch it burn every day in my fire pit.
