I find it really weird they (MS) won't pinpoint a release date. Kind of late in the game not to have one, isn't it?
It means November 5 is out of the question. It also means its launching after the PS4.This honestly doesn't mean anything...

Either way, they sell out and it doesn't matter.
There's a lot of anxiety around here about the release date. I doubt MS has that same anxiety. It just doesn't matter when they release the darn thing, just get it out. Before, after, same time as PS4, doesn't amount to a hill of beans. This holiday doesn't tell any story, provided one or the other doesn't fall flat on its face like Wii U.
Their problems are on the supply and services side: will they have enough and is the system software (voice, etc.) ready.
Does it really matter if it misses black friday or the christmas rush.....isnt it supposed to be sold out.......??????
Targeted? No really...targeted?!
You guys are going to be shocked when its before the ps4
That's true, I would honestly be surprised if that happened.You guys are going to be shocked when its before the ps4

MS announced the release date for the 360 at TGS 2005. That was 2 months before the 360 was released.
I'd say it pretty much cements what Shaniele was saying earlier about a nov 27th launch
I may laugh so hard I wet myself if they announce a Nov 27th launch

I guess they did that though because they were also launching in Japan that same year... and actually before the US. It would be crazy for them to do that there this time, basically waving the machine in their faces and saying "have fun waiting 6 months".
They really left a big chance to announce it at Gamescom, especially when they knew Sony were going to. The only thing I can think they'd announce it now is buying doing some sort of Nintendo Direct maybe. Or they could be going back to basics and just sending out a PR to everyone... I don't know.
It's a huge shopping day, but it's a common myth that it's the biggest. That's usually right before Christmas.
It would still be a significant miss to not hit it, regardless.
It would be very weird to announce the release date during TGS. They've done some wacky shit with the xbone, but that would really take things to the next level.
12 to 14 weeks for delivery, from contest start. Supplies be tight.
Congrats CBOAT
Sure about that? Xbox One has been looking like the console version of Windows Vista.MS is silly, not stupid

I agree with all that, Gaf always go crazy at stuff that really dont matter in the long run.you're right, I will be a little shocked. But like I said in the other topic, whether Sony launches a week early or Microsoft launches a week early, the time gap between their releases is too small to have a genuine impact. It'll be a negligible win for either party who launches first, to the tune of maybe a few extra thousand units sold.
Because remember almost always that first week systems launch it's sold out and you have to wait at least a few days for the next shipment, so it's not like people will just be able to swarm in the time between system releases and gobble up every system available.
I'll say 22nd as well, they can't fuck with Black Friday
This
27th is far too close to black friday
MS is silly, not stupid
Were you not around for the 360?

Doritos is the new Cboat.
How accurate would Doritos be though? I don't think they would be that privy to this kind of info from MS.
Yep, and the X360 launch was extremely rushed and a complete mess with very few units.MS announced the release date for the 360 at TGS 2005. That was 2 months before the 360 was released.
They probably have a better idea of a release date than developers. I would think marketing departments would be more likely to have specific release info than game creators. Developers would probably be more likely to have a date to be ready for cert by.How accurate would Doritos be though? I don't think they would be that privy to this kind of info from MS.
It means November 5 is out of the question. It also means its launching after the PS4.

Tiered states incoming, please understand Wyoming and Alaska.
Now I'm hungry for some Doritos, but I'm not sure what flavour to get.
I used to be all straight Nacho thuggish style...but then I tried Spicy Nacho and it's infinitely better--even more thuggish I should say really.
