It's perfectly fine. It does its job.
I've never had an issue. I do prefer PS4 though.

Literally 700-900p 30fps ports

Its 10x more powerful than the 360 and almost as powerful as the PS4 how are devs this fucking lazy?

Don Mattrick couldn't sell heroin in Baltimore.

Seriously, if Phil Spencer was in charge the whole time, MS could have gotten away with the weaker GPU, Always online and forced Kinect.

To answer the question, hype wasn't on MS's side. Despite having a far better exclusive line up from launch until even now than PS4. The marketing for the Xbone was so fucking terrible that it's no wonder so many people fell for Sony's lies.

MS being creepy as fuck with the Kinect before E3
No used games before e3

Whilst sony went on stage and bascially went "see all this retarded shit MS is doing? yeah were not doing that.

He still made millions though, so I don't understand how he failed at anything. Hell, Maybe pissing on us was his goal.

OT
They sold a framework to deliver frameworks; not games. You want the game you buy the framework and then the season pass, and the DLC, and pay to connect online. A console is a hobbled PC with more restrictions, people eventually caught on, and their greed backfired.

The market simply wasn't ready.

Seriously. Go back and watch the Xbone reveal and tell me with a straight face that all the features that had to be scrapped weren't fucking awesome. It's just unfortunate that all those features could only be possible with always online. In the future, when finding a location that doesn't have full wifi bars is more difficult than finding an Australian who hasn't already exceed their monthly data cap now is, the Xbone would have been the greatest thing in the world. But because internet access is still not 100% guaranteed the always online requirement was a HUGE drawback.
>>
Since Modern Warfare 2 came out, gaming has been infiltrated by people who only play video games because it's trendy. Now those degenerates make up the majority of "gamers." People like that prioritize pretty graficks over quality gameplay. Therefore a console that's yet to have a decent exclusive release, it selling like hotcakes just because it can run a few multiplats at the higher resolution yet lower FPS in most cases lmao; while the Xbone, which has a bunch of quality exclusives already out and a shitload of potentially great ones on the way is struggling to stay relevant.

Simply untrue. Even a lot of games with visual parity run better on Xbone (not just the ones Xbone has lower resolution for). Most PS4 games don't even have anisotropic filtering while the Xbone versions almost always do.

xbox was good for the first 4 years of the 7th gen they where on top in the race between sony and microsoft
not counting in nintendo with the wii

being a xbox owner was a good thing during that time

but overall there was a period when they where king

also for the most part multiplatform games ran better on it

Because of lazy devs, underpowered hardware and copycating PS4's hardware (Or the other way around i dont care its lazy) non custom hardware is absolutely hilarous

I owned one for a little bit over 2 years and it has 0 games 0

The PS4 has some exclusives but the Xboner had none it lost them to PC so fuck it i sold it and im waiting for Pascal and Polaris to come out

They ate shit with psychotic marketing. I can't imagine where teh fuck they got their data from to market/promote their console in the way they did. The console was lined up to be a spy machine that turned off if you did an action not allowed in the blood contract you signed to buy the console. That being said, I love my roomates Xbone, Halo 5 may have been a dogshit story, but the MP is fuckign great, and I fucking despise 343i, it's my genuine belief that someone ina production position is paid a lot of money to drag the brand through the mud, because they have a framework of dozens of hours of video and games in lore, and dozens of books, and they just rape and arape and rape the lore. I do not believe it's through pure coincidence they do the things they do. H4 MP was dogshit because they tried to appeal to CoD babby's, H5's MP is just pure fuckin goodness though. Also new Gears looks dope, and I don't really care about anything else desu, my 360 is still my best video game experiences, and that's purelyi through halo and gears, everything else is better on PC. If I didn't want bloodborne so badly I'd have an Xbone, I'm sure I'll get one eventually regardless. I really think PS4 dropped the ball, esp with the new version coming out, they got a huge lead this gen through smart marketing and playign off Xbone's huge marketing follies, and they're just eating that advantage right now, there's literally no reason to buy a PS4 if you dont want BB, maybe once Ratchet and Clank comes out it'll be worth it, or a new Ni No Kuni type game. Both the consoles fuckign suck desu

Also Gamesharing is the best. Is it a feature that was going to be in the always online xbone, that was left over. Or would it have been even better with Xbox's original plan, that people were to short sighted to look past.

>>335875117

Well, in terms of hardware, it's underpowered compared to the PS4 and lauched with a high price tag.

The defining wrong thing it did though was trying to sell a vision of being the ONE media machine in your living room that could do everything. I can't dig up that video right now but I'm sure you guys have seen that video where they mentioned "TV" so many times during the launch.

This was despite the fact that in most countries, the infrastructure for the vision the Xbox was selling is either very meager or nonexistent at all. So yeah, Microsoft tried to peddle a mostly digital vision in a time when it was not practical to do so.

They should really let Sony go first during e3 from now on. Sony was planning the same shit but scraped it after seeing xbox take the shit.

Ps4 wasn't even shown. They just scrambled and showed a bunch of indy fags in fedoras on stage playing their indy flash games. Then they began to shitnon xbox despite not showing their console.

Even if Microsoft went 2nd to present the Xbox One, there was no way to for them to know that the "one media machine in your living room" vision wouldn't sell, with all the TV focus.

More platforms you have the better deal PS+ is because Sony built an ecosystem for their consoles. Shit, it's a shame I don't understand Japanese or I'd have a JAP account and get games for PSP as well.

I fucking LOVE the xbone controller though, I should have mentioned that. I thought the 360 controller is the best ever made, then I used a dual shock 4, and fell in love. My 360 controller's rb, B, A, and DPad Up all died from way too much DaS, so then I used my roomies XBone controller for the first time and immediately liked it, but still liked the DS4 better, but then I played DaS with the Xbone controller and realized that it just works and feels fucking awesome, it's just fucking snug to the hand, and I've got big hands

PC needs to work on its E3 show, though. Maybe because people expect great bombastic reveals or something, but they don't need to copy the console presentation formula. And there's no incentive from the publishers to reveal your game at their presentation, I guess.

don't own a ps4. Use mainly handhelds and pc, own a 360 and ps3 tho.

Growing up is rough, it has given me less free time and taken a lot of my passion for videogames. Handhelds are great for that. I can play on the tram, and whenever I have free time. If I want to play more system intensive game I'll just play it on my pc.

I fuckin love JRPGs tho, so that may be why I love the vita so much.

And they perform almost as well at 900p 30fps. What's the problem?

>>335882747
I don't mean to sound like a "PC IS MASTERRACE HURR" idiot, but I'm so glad I built my first gaming PC around the time when this gen started. The blunders came and went, and I barely noticed. I finally learned last gen not to be an early adopter, and now I can buy a PS4K without feeling burned.

>>335882753
I game casually, and the one media machine thing is what sold me on the xbox one. I've got Youtube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBO Now, Plex, plays my MKVs, FLACs, Blu-Rays, Dvd's, Cd's. And the best app for me is the NFL app. Highlights of every game, detailed stats, and you could manage/oversee your multiple Fantasy Football accounts.

I'm sorry, I meant xboners are cancerous, they are just silent mutes because Microsoft has officially abandoned them for PC integration now.

Sony didn't have a great marketing campaign, it's just the bar wasn't set high.

Understand now friend.

Terrible marketing. But the thing that really killed it was pricing it literally $100 more than the PS4. That destroyed all hype and the XBone was perpetually catching up after.
>>
>>335883413

I hate to say it but based upon the response they got when they sold that vision and the fact that they had to backpeddle on it, you are in a minority of people who feel that way.

Granted, they didn't kill the whole TV thing but it is less than if it was fully integrated and everything.

XBONE VS PS4 is exactly like AMD VS NVIDIA

PSKEKS claim that more sales mean better but it's just autists falling for marketing and hype in larger droves than the other.

Both are shit. All games should come to PC so we can finally abandon console shit. PC can use controllers and be played in the living room with a TV. Exclusives are barely worth it.
>>
>>335883356
This. Waiting and being patient is the best superpower. Having a beast PC while console shit hits the fan is nice too.
>>
>>335884202
Its really not

AMD and Nvidia have fundamentally different ways of achieving the same thing.

And since the PS4 and Xbone BOTH use the same APU and 7000 series GPU they are literally exactly the same

Even if they came out in 2012 they would have been underpowered junk

Also most Xbox One games have been in dev limbo for years either canceled or rebooted.

Everything.

At this point, if I'd rank the consoles, it would be:
- PS4
- Wii U
- Xbox One

And no I don't have any consoles, anymore. Was gifted a PS4 and bought a few games for it, but sold it because all it had was Bloodborne, and it wasn't really that good enough to keep PS4. Also, sold it because PS4.5. Why keep an inferior hardware, right?

Oh, and I have a PC, which has the games I really like anyways.
>Strategy (RTS, turn-based, grand, etc.), simulations, city-building, old RPG games, ROMs, etc.

Everyday I regret getting an Xbone over a PS4, and at this point I might as well wait for the 4k version to come out.

At first the choice was pretty clear that the Xbone would be better with it's line up but now all those games are on PC.

The paradox of choice when it comes to consoles is too brutal, ever choice always ends up wrong unless you are an idort. I dream of the day when consoles just die and MS releases their games on the Windows store and Sony puts their games on their own client for PC.

Not really. You buy your console depending on what you like to play. You know PS4 will have weeb shit, for example.

i really need to upgrade my GPU

Have a 770 4gb From mid 2014

This gen was horseshit.

4 years later and its basically over

PS4 Neo is a next gen So basically Gen 9 because of a GPU change

Microsoft Xbox is Dead and will relaunch Next year to beat PS4.5

NX will be dead out of the gate the PS4.5 Xbox Whatever and PC will absolutely KILL it

not to meantion mobile games which now have the power of Consoles if not better

I think this sums up gen 8 as it currently stands nicely

>>335884479
The only reason I own an Xbone is to play Destiny and GTA with my friends online, because that's all they own. PC is fine for everything other than that. I might finally take the plunge, and pick up a PS4K as my JRPG machine, if FFXV takes advantage of it. It looks and runs like ass on Xbone, and I guess it's not coming to PC anytime soon.

Which is exactly how it always was. People base generation length on the last one, except it lasted WAY too long because of variety of reasons. 4-5 years is the average generation time.
>>
>>335884885
But Gen 9 is even more pathetic.

PS4.5 is literally just a overclocked PS4 with a new GPU

How fucking lazy is that

>PC can use controllers and be played in the living room
So you want PCs to be able to do the same thing as consoles? Aren't you admitting that consoles are better?
>>
>>335884935
I don't think anyone will design games exclusively for PS4.5, though. PS4 will still be the base, 4.5 will simply probably be able to run games at 1080p and steady framerate. Famous 4k everyone is going on about will be for blu-ray movies. So it's not really a new generation opener. That will probably be Nintendo NX.
>>
>>335884885
I just want the VR generation to come already. I'd pay twice as much for any console just to have a really good VR experience. It's always been a dream of mine
>>
>>335885282
I bet they will market it as a 4K games machine saying it can do up to '4k' like the ps4 and ps3 and even ps2 could go up to '1080'
>>
>>335885438
PS2 could technically run games at 1080p. All four of them, but still.
