Topic: The everything Xbox thread

Ironically enough the gif is from E3 2011 where Nintendo first showed the Wii U and had everyone confused as hell why microsoft was posting record sales with the 360.

This one is my favorite so far..

I thought the presentation was pretty boring tbh. Some of the features look neat, but I highly doubt I would ever use them. The few games they showed didn't look to interesting either. With all that along with some of the other negative things I've heard about it on the internet, the odds of me getting one is pretty dang low. My brother's a pretty big MS fanboy though and the conference hyped him up a lot so I'll end up with one eventually.

And I quote, "Xbox go home" haha

SO you want ti go to the hom menu?

Dude we get it you don't like it. I mean what were you expecting from the reval when they made it very clear that the inital reveal was to get Hardware and base feature set out of the way.

So have their been any conformations what game by EA are coming to the wii u now?

No idea, but I want NCAA football and Madden and I'll be happy, but that isn't going to happen....

They might announce a quick and dirty port based off the non Ignite engine stuff. I kid of assumed the reason Ea had to backtrack was because the NFL and FIFA threatened to revoke the license so now EA is going to put out half assed ports.

Need for Speed Rivals isn't coming either (frostbite 3) but I think its going to bomba hard. If you're buying a PS4 you're getting drive club and if you get a one than probably forza 5.

why did they threaten to revoke the license?

I will say its so painfully obvious how these Twit guys commentating aren't really Gamers and more of the average COD/Sports/skyrim guys. They thought Forza was a cutscene despite it being real time. They then thought the live action parts of Quantum Break were really good graphics. Le sigh. They thought the Entertainment stuff/Halo TV/ and Call of duty were great.

Pretty sure its in the contracts that Madden and Fifa must be on every viable platform possible. I think skipping over the Nintendo systems made the NFL and FIFA mad. even if they don't sale the organizations want their branding everywhere. I mean my first fifa was fifa 07 for the nintendo DS.

So is E3 going to make the Xbox One better?
Wii U is my primary and Sony and MS are going to have to fight and whoever comes out on top is who I am going to have be my secondary console.
So far Xbox 3 is not doing well at all.

Probably since its where they're going to show games. Microsoft isn't a stranger to backtracking on something that seems unpopular evidenced by the WIndows Blue stuff and that's selling pretty well.

I'll probably go with One as my main and WIi U as my secondary console. Have quite a bit invested in my xbox Video purchases for it not to be.

The Twit guys put up some decent points. They said the SOny conference gave more inspiration as far as wording but had nothing to back it up. ( a common complaint of the PS4 conference by mainstream press was they didn't show anything new or concrete) while Microsoft while being more direct showed more concreate stuff. (mainstream press have been eating this crap up).

It's coming to current gen systems, sales from next gen systems are extra, not where the success lies.

Sinve none of your 360 purchases will carry over, why does what you've invested the 360 matter?

Xbox Video is TV and movie content I have few seasons bought and that stuff will move over as they showed the Star Trek moving going off Xbox Video. Plan to sub to a few shows next season (Hart of Dixie, Arrow season 2, shield, etc)

Just got done talking XO in our family.

My dad is thrilled about all the NFL stuff, but doesn't like the fact that it will "watch & learn" about you (privacy issues), and thinks there'll be a big backlash against the whole used game fiasco.

My brother is excited for it, but is the guy who somehow managed to become an Xbox fanboy, after getting a 360 for the sole purpose of playing James Cameron's Avatar: the Game (which is the first and only game he's played in over 10 years)...

They are smart game boxes, and that dog in Ghost is kick-arss see all the detail on it? I hope we have a dog like that in the single player campaign, but i wonder how it work in multiplayer?
