Peter fuckin' Molydeux, god I love you.

Now playing

I need Pete Holmes to show off his best rendition of Qui-Gon Jin.

Cheers =)

Microsoft isn't ditching Kinect. It will still be sold. Games can and will still use it. Spencer even says that he believes that "the best Xbox One is Xbox One with Kinect plugged in." But the console not automatically having a Kinect means it doesn't need a Kinect, which means that people making games for it

Currently, Xbox One users can use voice commands, sensed by the Kinect, to navigate system menus, pause streaming video and such. They can't use voice commands through with an Xbox One headset.

WTF IS THIS. W. T. F. Even if it's a joke man, that's CRUEL bro. Don't hurt us like that.

Nothing to lose and everything to gain is right. Let's hope they don't go and Sega this up.

Yeah, XB1s shipped number is roughly 5 million, but VGChartz estimates their sell-through to be a reasonable 4.5 million (MS won't disclose its actual sell-thru to NPD yet... but probably soon). And Sony's numbers are as they say, if not better by now.

Indeed. In the end, if people like what they like, and a lot of people like the XBox. Period.

Yeah, they have all the IPs, but they no longer hold sway over the devs that created them. In the end, they don't have the ensemble of powerhouse internal support they had before. Meanwhile, Sony has done a tremendous job of building developer rapport. Regardless of hardware or service advantages, the developer

Sigh indeed.

I agree. Sony has all the cards in their hands and every advantage at their fingertips. But they're still not as dominant in the US as they should be. It could be due to supply shortages, it could be due to Titanfall's boost to XB, it could be sheer brand loyalty on MS's part. The fact that XB is willing to ditch

Part of me enjoys it quite a bit (as long as it stays civil), and part of me has to deal with it as a part of my job. I love nothing more than healthy competition and watching it unfold. I do have issue with people searching for ways to insinuate fanboy agendas out of every word and rage out on me. In any case, I hope

I would, too. I LOVE my PSPGo. But... you never know climate of public wrath until you're already in the storm.

Haha I do feel so much better now that you've proven you're an irredeemable, blind, and ignorant asshole troll. To think I felt sorry for you.

I think that was the outlook around launch, but since then, the PS4 snuck insidious little "free games" to its Plus members, and by default practically all PS4 owners had those games, whether they liked it or not. It started with Resogun and Contrast, then Don't Starve and Outlast, and they keep coming. Mostly

True enough. And like I said, if it were simply on the merits of the console, the PS4 should be wiping the XB1 off the map. But in NA, it hasn't, and I'm curious to see how it'll go from here. MS has been really busy lately...

It is definitely an overstatement. More like wry hyperbole. At least I hoped it would come off that way.

You are right in nearly every respect. Which is why it's even more mind-boggling that MS is still doing so strongly in the US. In spite of everything you said, the XB1 is still chugging along in NA as a close second to the PS4. For the kind of audience they're selling to (mainstream, less informed gamers which,

Sorry, I apologize for my "dick" statement (even though you started it and don't appear to be stopping). If you saw my other posts, I did mention the difference between sell-thru and shipped. Not "ten times," but quite a few times. The XB1 sell-thru is roughly 4.5 million (VGChartz estimate, since MS won't disclose
