Maybe thats why the XBone will launch only in 22(?) countries. Microsoft knows that they can't produce enough so they focus on countries where they have (had?) an established market. It wouldn't suprise me if its really sold out this holiday. (Because they didn't even supply that many units.)
there is something called family plan where you can share your games with up to 10 people on xbox live. maybe gamestop is salty about that.

They're looking beyond the video game console. MS believes what happened with the smart phone will happen in the living room. There will be a convergence of all devices into a single device. XB1 is the stepping stone to the next set top box.
I feel like this is a game of Risk now.
I suggest people reserve judgement....Microsoft has DEEP pockets and they will not let this fail or be outdone.
They are going to market the crap out of it. Expect to see XB1 ads on television, magazines, busses, billboards, cereal boxes, soda cans, chips, etc. The only caveat is they won't dare mention that it requires online or that it has used game restrictions

This does not mean anything. It has been this way since the dawn of GS. Also for those of you who believe PS4 will outsell Xbox One, you are sadly mistaken. Xbox One will blow up like a wildfire. MS is not worried about 20 million gamers when 100 million people want a cooler cable box. Long live the mighty Xbox Live!

Your trolling right?

I can't make the difference between legitimate "fanboys" and viral marketers.
GAF broke me.
this post and post history.

I don't need to look at his history. It's the same person who said xbone is "white hot", right?
XBOX ONE, hands down. It does not look like a VCR. It is elegant and very adult in my opinion. Wii U just looks like Wii. PS4 looks like a kids toy to me, although I do not really dislike it either. Looks like a pain in the ass to dust.
Based on his post history I am not so sure.
I just recieved membership. I am not trolling. I love my Xbox and Xbox Live. I Love my PS3. I Love my Wii and 3DS. I have been a gamer since 1985 and have loved every minute of it. So far the 360 has been my favorite system. Gaf members are just going to have to get used to me.
well during this time. as a junior you pretty much have to be careful what you say.
Okay so I either have to like Sony or Nintendo more and hold my tounge concerning Microsoft. Can you elaborate what you mean by "be careful what you say"?

People get too caught up in "winning" and "losing".
The Wii and PS3 sold more units than the 360 worldwide but do you think MS thought they "lost" last gen? Im pretty sure they did pretty well with the number of games and Gold subscriptions they sold.
If they can pull enough people into their ecosystem to turn a profit i dont think they will see it as losing.
Long live the mighty Xbox Live!
Yeah, don't say stuff like that.
this
makes you sound irrational and out of touch with reality.
You can say it, sure. but don't expect anyone to take you seriously.

you are in your late 20's and you type like that? I thought you was like 14 or something.
his post history says he's 33 or 35 and married.
anyways. Off topic. let's not continue.

Your right in that the investors never wanted them to get into the game to begin with. But then that XB Live money begain to flow.
They will be back.
Well I am not sure I get your drift. How is this irrational? Microsoft is denying all the gamers with no internet access to thier games. Does it not make sense they need to replace the sales with TV watchers nationwide? It is an all in one system. Lastly on the forum topic, I do not see why MS XBone would not be in limited qty, very much like the original Wii. I waited three months to find one after launch.
I'm sorry but who's going to spend $500, subscribe to XBL, hook their existing cablebox into another giant box, all so they can wave their hands in the air to change channels?

How about all the sports fans who want to run fantasy leagues using the XBone/ESPN partnership. I think Microsoft is pacing for the years to come. In due time there will be alot of promotions directed to non-gamers to appeal to the tv aspects of the box. This is also the reason why DRM has been introduced to devalue the physical disk. Ten years from now gaming will be all digital. MS will already be there.
