Aren't they gonna come out with a triple A game that pushes the boundaries of graphics and really shows us what unreal engine 4 is capable of? Theres no way that Fortnite and Paragon (two games with shitty graphics) are the only two games coming out they must be working on a yet announced triple A title?

I live in the Northern Europe, and when I thought of (next-gen) I had my mind set on PS4, I don't know why maybe because of the adverts and of course they didn't have the horrendous kinect stuff, but I ended up buying Xbox One, because of its 100$ cheaper price tag, and it also included a game, therefore I went for the more economical choice, and my my I am glad I did. Xbox One <3.
PS: I owned a PS3 before, and a Xbox 360 until it RLD. Perhaps this information is irrelvant haha :P
So which country do you live in? Yur saying the Xbox one is cheaper in your country than PS4? Yes you are doing the right thing in purchasing Xbox One. You get scalebound, crackdown 3, quantum break, fable legends, forzo motorsport 6, gears of war 4, Halo 5. Geez what else.

the likely reason is that the X1 was marketed SOLEY for the US audience at launch, and such damage is hard to cope with.
Basicly the X1 did not go on sale in most European countries for a good long while, most of the features of the X1 was US specific, meaning those would not work in Europe for the most part. And it was more expensive.
The result was that most first adopters in Europe took the logical option, namely the PS4. most people buying consoles after that, tends to do so based on the established user base.
As it stands now, most early adopters in Europe made their choice, or rather MS forced them to chose anyone but them. Sony on the other hand made sure most services worked flawless in Europe, they marketed for the European audience much better, in a bit to retake what was once Playstation "country"
As it stands now the X1 is arguably the weaker of the Console twins, it does have the better lineup, but you won't convince many Europeans of that.
So if MS is to make headway, they will have to set the console speak for itself, and spend more money on adverts, I can tell you just about how many times a day a PS funded advert rolls over the tv, or services that has adverts (a guess would be 4-5) I can not remember the last time I saw a MS advert.
Basicly MS made a lot of headway in Europe with the 360, and they killed all of it with the X1 launch, sad but that is what you get for aiming at one demographic alone, while sending all messages as "yeah we will get to you the second tier people afterwards"
I understand why most people gave MS the finger for that.
Ok yes when the Xbox was bundled with Kinect it was more expensive than PS4 but that was years ago, my question is is a xbox kinectless version cheaper than a PS4 in Europe? So if it is cheaper and the fact that Fifa Legends is exclusive how the hell can PS4 do so well?
I cant believe Xbox cant overtake PS4 in Europe even though Fifa legends is an exclusive for it! Help me out here people cause I have googled and nothing definitively comes up as a yes or no, is the Xbox One cheaper than PS4 in Europe? It must be cheaper in the UK for sure? Please are there any Europeans here that can answer this cause its burning in my mind!
I mean soccer/football is the biggest sport in the world and its insanely popular in Europe so you'd think that fifa legends being an exclusive for Xbox would cause most people to opt for it over PS4 (ESPECIALLY IF XBOX IS THE CHEAPER CONSOLE!) but no right now PS4 has 70 to 90% market share over there.
I mean lets face it as of right now Xbox has the best game lineup. I mean the critics tend to think Sony won E3 but gamescom hands down goes to Microsoft (and if Microsoft had shown these games off at E3 instead of gamescom who do you think would have won?) and I know for a fact Xbox One is cheaper than PS4 here in USA! In fact much cheaper! You can get a 500 GB Xbox for $350 compared to a $400 500GB PS4, its gets even better, right now you can get a $400 1 TB Xbox One! YET THE PS4 IS STILL OUTSELLING THE XBOX!!!
Now I do believe that due to the much cheaper price tag and badass game lineup that Xbox will turn things around and outsell PS4 during the 2015 holidays here in North America. So I do think Microsoft will once again be the King here in USA but as for Europe... What the hell's going on over there?
p.s. I didn't mention Japan cause its absolutely hopeless for Microsoft over there lol, but hey now that China's opened up maybe Xbox can reign supreme there, only time will tell.
