Xbox One

[Triumph]

Ooo... I'm surprised that these console games are making it harder and harder for us to get our money's worth... it's just pushing gamers into online games like Steam...


Triumph is the Samsung stock going up?

It should be, the S4 is a great phone, and just came out in the United States. A quick peek in the Korean stock exchange seems to indicate it rose a little last week.

I hate the plastic feel of the S3/4, so incidentally, I now have an iPhone. Which most of my friends find hilarious, since I used to be a diehard Android user.

The issue with the Xbox One is that if you have mandatory game installation, combined with a non-replaceable hard drive (lol, what are we, the 1990s?), you are quickly gonna run out of space if you own a large collection of games and DLC. If they really plan on doing everything through the cloud, and have your games stored on the cloud... that's gonna get expensive.

Sales jumped 875%? on the Wii U last week, so I dunno what Microsoft is doing anymore. It's nice and all to try to appeal to everyone, but if you spread yourself so thin and alienate your primary consumer base (gamerfolk), then things aren't gonna go so well.

I'm still hung up on the "we're gonna appeal to the casuals" and "we're also gonna keep the subscription for Xbox Live."

People are also mad because you can get these games, but you will have to buy them digitally. And they are also making it so you have to install the games. So one console per physical copy of the game. You couldn't sell it again or let a friend borrow it.

You technically can still lend I think, but you'd have to let people sign in on your account... but playing LAN is probably a thing of the past. Yay moneygrubbing. Playing multiplayer online (e.g. CoD/BF) won't change much, but no more lending RPGs to friends without lending them your account also...
