what games can you even think of getting on there that you can't get anywhere else? normally I'd say KI but I think that's on W10 now.

Also maybe forza but meh.

So what would one play on a xbone?

Halo and maybe Forza if you're into cars. Anything else?

they are releasing a new xbox one with stronger hardware soon.

Its why both Sony and MS are putting their systems on sale currently.
>>
>>340036850
I personally hate mine and this is coming from someone who loved the 360.
Everything it does the PS4 does better
My xbox runs hot as shit and has this annoying clicking sound even though I've almost never used it
the interface is a cluster fuck and I hate navigating the home screen
multi plats run worse
seems like half the time the party chat won't work
really aren't any positive
so unless there are some exclusives you consider consoles sellers I'd say just get a PS4 or neither

I believe it's because they're releasing a smaller version that supports 4k movies and tv. The more powerful one probably won't be out until the holidays or next year.

There's no good games.

They sacrificed Halo Remake as a beta test for their shit Halo 5. Charging $60 for a game that didn't work, sacrificing the game that made xbox, just to ensure their shitty sequel game wouldn't have even more holding it back.


There's no interesting games. PS4 gets all the neat an interesting exclusives. Xbone gets shitty bro games, that are going to come to Windows 10 anyways.

Performance is shit. Multiplats are always sub 1080p(900 typically) because the console's so weak.

They wasted so much money/development on Kinect. That should have been invested and spent on making the console more powerful. Instead they made an add-on that people on yelled at to 'Stop Listening' and fucking them up ni the middle of games.

The console itself is awful. It's getting better but Party Chat and the like used to be absolute garbage.

Only reason to own it, is if your friends own one(sadly).

Nice try.
5 year old pc, cost like 750 dollars when brand new. Got a new graphics card and a cpu fan last summer and now can max out all new games at stable FPS and run CPU bottlenecks easily as well.
Console gens are about to change twice while I've had this pc with one upgrade. Enjoy your .5 gen steps so developers can force you to buy more locked, non customizable hardware

It's fine if you like exclusives but please stop acting like maining consoles for any other reason than exlcusives is a good idea.

It's for 3D artists, you use it purely for non-real time rendering. So you have another GPU or use the motherboards' video out to drive your monitor where you view the result, which is a pre-rendered picture or video file. It's the shit they use in their render farms too.

Fucking great. Maybe not for Forza, but it hurts to see what they keep doing to Halo. It's a trainwreck I can't stop looking at, but it'd be better for everyone if they just put Halo out of its misery.

>>340045184
Honestly I've played it at friend's place and besides the shitty "character-driven" story where you and "your team" do shit while they keep opening their mouths all day long, the gameplay is solid. I could do without sprint and all the fancy hulk smash shit, but I think it played great. But seriously these TV series style of storytelling is really getting on my nerves. I'm here for a Space opera with epic vistas in the background and pumping synth music and shooting ayyliens, not for internal conflict between some humans. Put that into some audio/text logs. Unreal did it perfectly in 1997.

Companies are run by morons who want as much of a level playing field as possible to avoid any sort of negative tweets or some shit. I dunno man, it defies logic to hamstring your own games, but faggots keep doing it.

That's one of the reasons people are moving away from videogames, in fact. And the worst part is that the companies are so fucking stupid that they believe phone games are the reason, which ironically only makes more people to move away from videogames since they make shitty shovelware phone games instead of actual console games they'd want to purchase. It's shit.
>>
I've been waiting like three years for a current gen console to be worth buying and they still aren't, it's just 90% remakes, 10% new games, and maybe 4 of those are games worth playing.

That's not worth $300 to me
>>
>>340045559
The gameplay isn't particularly bad, but they should have just redone the story so it is a new IP and not Halo. Part of what Halo so great was the story, and they've shit all over that. On top of that, there's no more local coop anymore. I have so many fond memories of playing Halo split screen.
>>
>>340045442
Alright man, the better game got two more games. One of which is one of the best super hero game ever.
>>
>>340045672
they are making those phone games cause it costs a fraction to make them and they actually make WAY more money off them
>>
>>340045672
>That's one of the reasons people are moving away from videogames, in fact.
But that's also untrue. More people are buying video games than ever before, and it just creates an incentive to fuck over consumers more since they don't give a shit. They'll buy the PS4/Xbone upgrade.

In the meantime, early adopters got the shaft. Hard. Because they bought a shitty machine that lost its market value at an unprecedented rate.
>>
>only Xbone game I want is already on PC

Get fucked, consolefags

You kids dont know consoles were always just like Internet bubble.
M$ is fighting against Sony with PC(they are letting some shit slide on Steam), the moment M$ feels they dominate console market, they will kill PC gaming, they have almost succeed last gen(does anyone have such short memory)
>>

After what happened with the ps3 last gen you would have to be a retard or 10 years old or younger to ever be an early adaptor again, I always wait at least 2 years to see if it's worth buying

Points B and C are off there, the hardware manufacturers seem to be on board with Linux and Vulkan they're sick and tired of Microsoft dictating what features they get to expose to their customers and while Linux gaming may be a small percentage of total users Linux is utterly dominant in the work station and high performance compute market.

Steam Machines were never going to be an instant success because as you say Microsoft suppresses the progress of the PC Gaming industry through their domination of the primary gaming API. If Vulkan and SDL can catch on among developers it will go a long way towards fixing the problems with PC gaming.

The best chance for Linux gaming is now here with Microsoft force upgrading people against their will, and preparing to discontinue support for new hardware on their old operating systems. PC gaming as we know it can't survive a tablet style OS which is exactly what Windows 10 is.
>>
>>340047836
Yes. Thats exactly why you shouldnt commit to a new console currently.
Both MS and Sony are gonna reveal some new shit thats gonna make the old redundant.

How many of those sort of users care that their Chromebook runs a customized Gentoo Linux? Or that their Android Tablet runs a very customized Linux based platform? How many people care that their PS4 is essentially a FreeBSD machine? Or that it can be unlocked to run Linux?

Free Software has a lot of advantages when it comes to devices for clueless users because the sharp edges can be hidden from users but for developers the APIs can all still be familiar. Vulkan and SDL seem set to change the industry since even with Microsoft's best efforts to force Windows 10 and DirectX 12 the majority of their users will be on old versions.

Also forgot to mention, to run any new games at 4k/60fps like the new consoles, you would need a graphics card that costs at least $400 by itself. This is all coming from someone who owns a high end gaming rig.
