Xbox One: Rushed Hardware, Games at 900p, Hardware Failures

The implication that we're supposed to believe Microsoft is amusing.

Apparently not even the PS4 will have all games running at 1080p.

Let's all get a Wii-U I guess.

"I hope you aren't fans of 1080P on Xbox One."

Is he suggesting only Xbox One games will be natively non-1080p and all PS4 games will be natively 1080p?

@blackace

You guys have been repeating that same bs about Neogaf forever now. lol, proof that Neogaf is owned by Sony? Do you have it? Just because there seems to be a lot of PS4 fans within that forum? I could say the same thing about Gamespot forums as well. Does that mean that System Wars is owned by Sony too? XD.

I'm not saying that CBOAT is spoutng "TRUTHFACT" (rofl), I'm just relaying the fact that Microsoft really isn't popular this time around since the reveal, so naturally, there will be more fans from the competition. You guys and you conspiracy theories are laughable.

I swear, a lot of you guys are starting to sound like MisterXMedia these days ..

Hmm i certainly hope this proclamation is false. It would be a big shame if people invest in this console and it will be limited to 900p. Its very concerning. I have had thoughts of cancelling my pre order, but im going to stick it through and hope they know better than this.

@I_can_haz: look at that enormous fan, MS is making sure they don't have hardware issues. They also said xbox one is designed to last 10 years without being turned off if you so choose. I'm supposed to believe some random anonymous rumor whore? Please.

Got a link to that quote?

Awesome. Thanks for the link. Hopefully what they say is true.

@kingoflife9: That's a really big fan, I'm impressed but surely you don't expect me to believe that MS would admit to having faulty hardware if they did indeed have it. Why should we trust anything MS says after the whole RROD debacle?

I see what you're selling, but I'm not buying.

@GravityX Exactly, nothing but propaganda at this point. No one will know the truth until after launch anyway.

Personally, I don't believe anything is wrong the Xbone hardware. (like RROD). But I could be wrong, just have to wait and see.

I had a bad feeling both consoles were going to have problems at launch.

Both consoles are bound to have issues, that's why i'm going to wait a while before i get a PS4.

RROD 2.0 Confirmed

must be a lie, we all know microsoft wouldn't rush a console to the market with flaws like the red ring of death right?

ROFL cows must be bloody desperate to rely on news from CBOAT

Wow....just wow

It's true. xbone won't be able to fit nextgen deferred engines in the tiny 32mb esram and will be subhd.

TLHBO

I'm a PS fan but even I'm finding this hard to believe...

It's the xbox 360 all over again

Wouldn't surprise me if Microsoft's console has hardware issues. But for their sake, it better not.

PS4 demo booths are overheating: http://videogamescene.com/ps4-overheating-the-red-line-of-death/

I seems this is gonna be another gen with high failure rates. ;(

I don't see any air vent for this plastic box, this is a good way to overheat your console system.

Xbox One is massive in size, big fan, components that give out less heat and an external PSU.

PS4 is smaller with a smaller fan, components that give out more heat and an internal PSU.

Its not rocket science which is most likely to have problems. If you think the Xbox One is going to have problems and the PS4 will be fine your in for a big surprise. Technical wizardry can only go so far and Microsoft have learnt their lesson on RROD.

This is bullsh.t

Sounding more and more like this console was rushed and the Feb. event took 'em by surprise. Not seeing any RROD-like disasters though.

LOL downclock.....

To be perfectly honest, Im not worried about any Xbox overheating problems. Look at the size of the box and the size of the fan. Say what you will about MS, but they didnt get to being such a large company by making the same mistakes over and over. Im pretty sure the 1st key thing on their agenda when they designed the Xbone was to enure that another RROD like situation would never happen.

This... I hope big console failure rates are a thing of the past, but looking at it now, I'm honestly more worried about the PS4, and Gue's link above is worrisome.

RRoD was very costly for MS, and I'm pretty sure they learned their lesson. With X1 having a large case with lots of vents and an external PSU, looks to me MS is doing a good job on covering all fronts to prevent overheating issues. Despite all the anti-MS stuff, I don't expect X1 to suffer any major technical issues.

CBOAT never said anything about a downclock lol. And what is your opinion on xbone being sub1080?

If MS has issues with the X1 like with 360, Lems will defend them. MS could kill their families and Lems would defend them.

That is such a shame. Makes sense though. Microsoft releases a product that barely works, gets millions at launch, and millions from consumers who will be paying them to get their console fixed.

Same here. The system is being played, hands on, all over the US right now. While I do think when it comes to certain entertainment aspects that the One was set for 2014, hardware wise its doing just fine.

So we have a full outed Xbox One dev who responds knowing full well he is putting his name on the line versus this Cboat ebonics writing so called insider who's batting 50/50 lately? I think I buy the reply of the dev who will put his name and reputation on the line. Case closed for me.

CBOAT would make a good "psychic" AKA cold reader

What a bunch of FUD bullsh*t. Trying to compensate because of the PS4's "Red Line of Death" issues, are we?

Oh, and Forza is 1080p, so that pretty much blows that argument, too.

You cows are so paraniod over the XB1, it borderlines on hysteria.

His name is not on the line because it's not shown.Also you can easily call it BS when he says he had it for over a year when upclocks were recent.

Please don't tell me that people actually believe that GAF is owned by Sony.

And X1 is fucked. It has been for quite some time.

Not again Microsoft lol

I'll wait to see what the failure rate of the X1 is before I call judgment on it. I'm not expecting much durability seeing as how both the Original and 360 had high failure rates.

Btw TC, I know a certain GS user that will be personally offended by this news lol I'm sure we all know who I'm referring to lol

Not that I necessarily believe the source....but this is what they did last launch. So i wouldn't be surprised either...

well, you could say it's clearly having trouble of some sort since they had to drop territories where it's being launched.They went from 21 to just 13 ;)

"NeoGaf is owned by Sony"

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Are you serious?

PS4 November launch = 32 countries

xbone=13 countries ...lol,no problem at all!!!

The only way we see these consoles is locked up in a box in some overheated store. Is anybody Really surprised we're seeing demo units locked in a box for 12 hours a day running constantly are crashing.

Geez. I didn't know they went down to only 13 territories. That is sad

I find it unlikely that it's the Xbox One that will have reliability issues, given the size (venting space). And the PS4 is more compact and its RAM and GPU are likely to make more heat.

Plus, the victims didnt seem to care. All the lemmings with dead xboxs tend to lie about it on this site, or see it as not a problem.

most of the PS4 countries have less then 10 consoles available and a price that nobody in those countries can even afford. its all marketing BS. Not to mention some countries don't even have PSN store available to them

majority of PS4 games will be native 1080p on PS4, not on Xbox One
