"XBOX GO HOME!"

I have no expectations for it... Only bad ones.

edit: what it's a games console

Honestly, there isn't much of a difference between the PS4 and Xbox One, but the PS4 does have some better specs. I think the PS4 will win this one.

Post by: EmperorDisasster on May 24, 2013, 12:21:21 PM: Long rant list here:

1. Daft name, Xbox 360 - 359, would have preferred Xbox Legacy or Xbox Infinite
2. No backwards compatibility
3. Apparently, all games HAVE to be installed before playing (why?!?!?!?!?!?!)
4. Notice how they suspiciously mentioned nothing about the always online rumour...
5. Mentioned a lot of games, showed no gameplay (even with the trailers, no live gameplay)
6. COD Ghosts still looks avg. graphics considering the other games looked p amazing.
7. Why does it look like an old video player?
8. Kinect still exists... Maybe it'll work this time.
9. Why have all this TV stuff integrated when you'll be playing it on a TV and therefore just watch TV from your TV...?
10. Main selling point of Ghosts is dogs existing in it... haven't they been in it since Modern Warfare?
11. Halo doesn't really have the enormous capacity of story to carry out an on-going TV show, or the interest (would rather be playing the game than watching actors look like the characters you play in the game tbh)
12. If you're making a huge deal about this console, best not end with the new COD...
13. Ghosts thinks fish moving out the way when you go towards them, sliding on the ground and hitting a wall and automatically going against it is the great new ideas of COD, but is that even new? Bulletstorm has sliding, it's been out for ages. Battlefield has a lot of these functions, 3 has been out a while. Fish moving out the way... ok...
14. Don't refer to one of the biggest online systems you have going, used mainly by a lot of kids, as a "new water cooler". Or it makes it sound about as interesting as staring at water.
15. Pre-owned fee, gtfo
16. Indie games no longer under self-publishing, why???
17. Not always online, you just have to log in daily... practically the same thing
18. "dogz r teh mein selin poynt ov a gaem"

Comparing a PC to a console is like comparing a Ferrari to a Toyota Prius.
You didn't really specify what you mean.

If you're talking about horsepower and how fast the car can go then yeah, ferrari wins easily. As for gas consumption and mileage, the obvious winner is the prius.

However, if you look at gas consumption and mileage as power for each device to run, ofcourse the Xbox One will consume less, and also perform less.

PC takes quite a bit more to run but in the end it is definitely worth it.

Basically, just the overall quality. Obviously a Ferrari has better quality than a Toyota Prius. All I'm saying is that you can't compare PCs to consoles, because you can have the PC perform to your expectations, whereas the console is stuck with the hardware it's manufactured with.
