So what are the benifits of owning an Xbox One?

🂿 · August 15, 2015, 11:49:52 PM

I know I can stream it to my PC, though the system would be right below me so that wouldn't matter unless I had a living room.

How's MCC right now? Is it playable as far as online goes? What other games do you guys recommend?

Also, considering on selling PS4 because PS4 has no backwards compatibility.

Do you want backwards compatibility?

Do you want to play Halo again with 60fps?

Do you want the games that will come out for the Xbox in the future?

Do you have friends on the One?

Halo, Gears of War, Forza. Nothing new.

August 16, 2015, 12:10:03 AM

I am on it.

none

Honestly I'd be inclined to agree. Give or take 10% off. 90% agree.

Like I said in the other thread:

An Xbone is only worth it at this point if your primary gaming is FPS's. And god knows the 360 burned me out on those.

The PS4 honestly gives you more bang for your buck. PS+ is cheaper, they support indie devs more, PS vote or whatever is coming, etc.

Or just get a better PC and save money

As a PS4 owner, I don't believe I got any sort of 'bang for my buck'

I got it for the few games I want/wanted.

As should anyone, so it comes down to what you want game wise.

Luciana · August 16, 2015, 12:57:54 AM

Which is basically what I said in a more aggressive and less neutral manner.

I still don't wanna buy that Xbone after what MS tried to pull with consumers.

They're practically the same thing. It comes down to whether or not you have a hard-on for first-person-shooters, want old-ass titles, or want a console that's #4theplayers.

The last one will determine whether you're a shill or not.

Xbox exclusives. Your friends. Pretty much it.

Backwards compatibility is such a non-issue. It's not hard to find a PS3 for a cheap price.

Girl of Mystery · August 16, 2015, 01:25:10 AM

You bought a PS4 to play PS3 games?
Umm, okay
Who buys any console to play games from the previous console?

Besides the MCC, there's... uhh...
You have a 360, so backwards compatibility isn't really a selling point.

Verbatim · August 16, 2015, 01:28:58 AM

Backwards compatibility is an asinine reason to buy a new console, yeah.

"I bought an Xbox One so that I could play 360 games on it!"

It's a luxury.

And at the rate Sony are going, every PS3 exclusive will be on PS4 sometime in the future.

I already have a better PC. This thing can run games at ultra settings. It's just no one wants to play with me on PC, aside from TF2 that is, I don't really like TF2.

As for the PS4, already have it and got nothing good going for it.

And I find myself severely missing Halo.

I'll sell the fucking 360.

And by backwards compatibility for PS, I'm talking about shit like PS1 classics. Really the only thing I have that's a true exclusive to the system is the damn PT demo.

🂿 · August 16, 2015, 01:47:12 AM

Bottom line is, I just want to know if I'll have any enjoyment out of it outside of PC gaming.

Because The Original Xbox and the 360 did that, but does the Xbox One?

If you can play with all these FOOLS, then yeah I don't see why it wouldn't.

Well outside of these fools a good sum of my friends list already has the system. Nobody wanted to go to PS4 or PC.

Buy a console for the games you like and the people you enjoy.

If there aren't any games you like or people you enjoy on a platform then I'd suggest not purchasing it.

i mean, bad games are bad, but bad games (like halo) can be pretty fun to play if you have company

except halo 5 won't have splitscreen

so... live with that

It's not a bad feature to have, you know. Just in case there is no internet and you have friends in real life over.
