From the moment the console was officially announced, hell even before that its been a disaster.

let's just count the screwups so far

  1. allowed rumors of always online to linger damaging brand and perception to enthusiast early adopters
  2. TV centric unveiling showing minimal to no games
  3. Used game policy with phantom benefits Microsoft refuses to nail down but promises everyone will benefit from
  4. Microsoft cancels post e3 media press event which apparently suggest they aren't gonna go infront of the media and take questions.
  5. forced camera on console that invades your in-home privacy by doing things like head counts before letting you watch a movie. required to be on for console to work.
  6. console required to be online once a day to phone home if you want to play games.
  7. potential destruction of user ran secondhand market. unable to eBay or Craigslist games that require activation codes from big brother to work.
  8. compromised specs resulting in a weaker system further dumbed down due to bad chip yields
  9. when any public representative from Microsoft is asked a question by the gaming media about Xbox One they usually reply with a company line that has no real meaning or give confusing information
  10. Microsoft gives middle finger to indie developers telling them either get a major publisher to back you or go kick rocks

when the community comes up with negative connotation taglines like you're gonna get Xboned or don't get Xboned about your product and it hasn't even been released yet that's not good.

I dont make a decision to support anything until i have all the details. Im still waiting on full details from both MS and Sony.

Whats the point of trashing a console when its 6 months away from release, you dont have the full details on said system, and you dont know what games will be available? Stay off neoGaf for a while, them clowns turning everything into armageddon.

Xbot one supporters are like religious people



They're irrational stans who don't care about facts and it's a waste of time to try to understand the psychology behind it all.

don't get me wrong i'm gonna buy the thing regardless just for the exclusives but you'd have to be in total denial to not be able to admit this whole thing has been one giant screwup.

As a ps1/2/3 owner, Sony stand are starting to get a little egregious about bashing the Xbox one. Can we at least let the damn things come out before we pan them?

It's one thing to say it doesn't look good for Xbox, but its another to claim ps4 IS already better than Xbox, with out playing a single game on either, seeing a single game on either (it wasn't an actual ps4 it was a computer "built to spec ") and seeing hardcore plans for the ps4 as far as pricing.

I don't see how ppl are able to be so hyperbolic when we are all going off of assumptions and spec sheets.

it's been disastrous for Microsoft. but they're a big company, with a lot invested in this, and only time will tell how this all turns out

i wasn't really looking to the PS4 cause we really know even less about it than we do the Xbox One. what i'm saying at this point is everything that has been shown about the Xbox one has had an overwhelmingly negative reaction to it and the company keeps misfiring over it. this is "$599 US dollars" all over again in multiple smaller chunks.

I agree, and my post is not directed at you. It's more in the line of, I've seen some not try to defend msft, but more often than not, pt out the fact that we don't know Sony's entire plan.

While I don't like where msft is trending towards, it could turn out that the systems are more similar than some would like to admit.
