X1 = More expensive, lower specs, less exclusives. Why would anyone buy one?

So the facts are:

The Bone is $100 or £80 more expensive than the PS4 + it has a bunch of features behind a paywall.

PS4 is 50% more powerful. This will result in better multiplats and it also represents far etter value for money than the Bone. It also has a bunch of F2P games at launch and PS+ is a much better deal.

Sony have an amazing first and second party which does not even need listing. Compare that to MS who only have one AAA dev in Turn 10. Not only are their devs better quality (Rare and Lionhead are just awful) but they also have far more of them. That means more and better exclusives. 

How can anyone justify purchasing an Xbox One? Anyone who says launch exclusives should think again because this gen will last 10 years and MS aren't going to keep buying 3rd party exclusives like Titanfall and DR3.

I can't believe that the lems are actually multiplying. Even LoosingEnds has come to his senses but somehow these awful people till exist here on SW. MS tried to screw them in the ass but somehow they're still on here everyday defending this company that has been nothing but a plague on gaming since 2009.

]It should be pretty clear to most gamers by now that any slight differences in specs really aren't going to make much of an impact in performance differences. The only difference that will be seen in the next-gen war will be with the Wii U (as far as hardware power goes). And even in that respect the Wii U still has a lot of power in its own right.

At the end of the day its going to be exclusive content that justifies each console's respective price and perceived value.

Only two strong reasons as of now, that migh make a difference.

-Halo, it's still a beast.

Friends buy one (what system your friends get, deturmines often what you get, the One could pull over allot of Gold's Bro-gamers).

You can say: "but we still need to see Naughty Dog and Media Molecule's games!"

 

And we still need to see Lionhead's MMO, Black Tusk, and MS Japan's games. Also all the third party funded and published (meaning they won't be coming to PS4 or PC) games Phil Spencer was teasing.

1.  Games

2.  Xbox LIVE Less p2p more server hosted online gaming.  BIG PLUS

3.  Multi-media I actually use my Xbox for more than games, curious about the improvements to the Xbox OS

4.  Kinect 2.0  It not being a peripheral there is a good chance of some interesting stuff being done with it.

5.  Exclusive content that MS likes to snatch up every so often $$$.

Or, they prefer something different.

I alternate. I got the iPhone 5, this time, and i'll grab the next Samsung (probably), the next time.

How can anyone justify purchasing an Xbox One? 

It's really simple..Just like I do for the PS4. For the fun of it? Im looking forward to the games and multi-media functions. For my family and I we are looking forward to what Kinect 2.0 brings. We all have/had a blast with Kinect.

Seems simple...

Its rather shocking how much time people have on their hands to put so much effort into this board.

ooo this thread again. Just like to add Microsoft actually has more 1st party developers than Sony this time round. They have been recruiting quite heavily. So from OP PS4 is slightly more powerful, Xbox One has more exclusives and more Devs. I'd make that 2-1 to Xbox One. Please keep these threads coming there really entertaining. NOT

Gran Turismo - 70 milllon

Halo - 50 millon

And if lems want to claim that is inaccurate it is not off by 20 million. Halo loses. :lol:

Also Halo needed more games to get to 50 million.

* Halo, Forza, Titanfall

* Better Controller

* Dedicated servers for most if not all games

* Kinect looks fun and innovative

* Ends up being better value with a free game

Plus im not poor, so either way $100 is nothing in the grand scheme of things.
