Man, the Internet is super mad right now. This feels like "we have a system for you, the 360" all over again.
If there is one area where MS has an insurmountable lead it is in pissing off the internet. They have really made a technology breakthrough on this front.
Though it is kinda self fulfilling a this point.
the internet is just waiting to be angered. the internet is a silly place.
Yeah it's almost as if the internet should be okay with this announcement.
In fairness, the internet thinks that MS should just give up and not even bother trying, which clearly isn't in microsofts vocabulary. If Microsoft are publishing the game or not will determine my opinion if it's a good idea or not. If it's not MS publishing, then I am severely worried this is the end of the TR reboot as a franchise.
This is true.
If MS is the one publishing, this probably means SE didn't have enough faith in the franchise(for some reason) and decided they wanted to pass the buck.
If they aren't...eh.

Let's not make our last page this, guys.
The xbox one had a rocky start, but I use mine pretty much every single day and I am glad I have it.
Lots of great games coming out, lots of stuff to play right now, so many neat features coming before the end of the year.
This has been a good thread. Let's end on a high note.
I'm looking forward to Halo, Quantum Break, Sunset Overdrive, Destiny, Assassin's Creed, Tomb Raider, Dragon Age, and so many other amazing games...
It's been so much fun chatting about the system with you folks.
:hugs:

I mean there are a lot of good game coming out. But this is truly an interesting turn of events.
controversial, but a pretty decent showing from MS this afternoon. how ever the exclusive deal with Tomb raider works out its still a huge get for MS and is a full on declaration of intent. they are going to do what ever it takes turn things around.
cant wait to see what Sony shows off this evening.
If TR is actually non a timed exclusive, this would be the biggest and most impressive money hat I've ever seen in my gaming career.
I don't actually believe it's not a timed exclusive and won't come out as a definitive/sigma/whatever edition for at least PC later, but if true, damn.
Adios everyone, I've enjoyed posting news and discussion for this console (and the PS4) but I don't think I'm going to make a new thread for everything I think is newsworthy that pops up. It's been real!

a PC version is almost a given, but you've got to remember that neither MS or Sony see the PC market as being direct competition to their consoles. sure there's overlap, but not enough in their eyes to factor that market into these exclusive deals.
I don't have an Xbox One yet, I figured I would get one after a price drop or when a smaller model is released. So, I'm not too upset about Tomb Raider. (I am more disappointed about it being limited by the 360) But I do think its kinda sad to see that Kinect 2.0 seems to be getting dropped. It seems like it will never live up to its potential.
I’ll tell you what happens in Demon’s Souls when you die. You come back as a ghost with your health capped at half. And when you keep on dying, the alignment of the world turns black and the enemies get harder. That’s right, when you fail in this game, it gets harder. Why? Because fuck you is why.
Adios everyone, I've enjoyed posting news and discussion for this console (and the PS4) but I don't think I'm going to make a new thread for everything I think is newsworthy that pops up. It's been real!
The XBLA thread could be turned into the XBL Marketplace and move some current and upcoming software discussion there. I mean, most of it is digital after all.

yeah i can see it becoming just a general Xbox Live thread. gets all the deals and new releases in one place and allows new Xbone owners to find others to play with. might be worth drawing up a new spreadsheet for people to add gamertags too along with which they own, 360, One or both.

Multiple sources now saying that Rise of the Tomb Raider is a full on Microsoft exclusive, and not a timed one.
So yeah - depending on how this all plays out, Microsoft may be trying to make Tomb Raider their Uncharted franchise.
I feel very confused by this statement. Uncharted has never seemed that awesome to me. Definitely not in the system seller area.
Nice to have? Sure, absolutely. Make me buy the system good? For like ten hours of play?
Don't get it.
have you played uncharted 2? It's one of the very best games of the entire last console generation

Before /around the same time the next tomb raider comes out, there will be:
Sunset Overdrive
Destiny
Forza Horizon 2
Halo: The Master Chief Collection
Call of Spacey: House of CoDs
Assassin's Creed: Unity
Minecraft, with the ability to carry your xbox 360 world over (I'll never get why this game is as big as it is on consoles but goddamn does it continue to sell)
Quantum Break
Dragon Age
Witcher 3
Two full years of EA Sports Games
The Next Unannounced Assassin's Creed Game
The Next Unannounced Call of Duty
Halo 5: Guardians
...
Most of these will be capable of moving systems. I think we will easily see ~20-25 million xbox one owners by holiday 2015.

I bolded the exclusives... I dunno if just those sell units if errybody's friends are buying PS4s. Happy with my xbox though.
My only hope is that someone makes a One controller before it hits that isn't a total abortion
I still don't understand this. Did you not like the 360 controller as well?
It's hard to go back to even the 360 pad after the DS4
But even then the bumpers feel worse on the One, and man I don't know how to explain it, except that it all feels too cramped when I hold it. Is it smaller than the 360 pad? Because it feels like it.
Also I hate the "no resistance in the trigger" thing

Hmmm. Odd, to me it just feels like a 360 controller with a much better d pad. To each their own though.
No I don't.

Call of Spacey may not be an exclusive... but all of the promotion and advertising is tied to the xbox one.
And this sexy console comes with the game, and a 1TB HDD.

I would like the design if not for the gold D-pad.

I thought Master Chief Collection was leaked as coming to PC?

Eh. While I don't feel that the One's controller is better than the PS4 controller, it's a gargantuan improvement over the 360 pad. It's also arguably better than the PS3 controller in design, and definitely in ergonomics, if you can get over Microsoft's sticks being in the totally wrong place.

That was debunked. I don't have a source atm but I recall it being acknowledged as a listing gaff on the part of one division of Amazon?

I actually don't mind the military looking one per se but ya, the fancy dumb designs are dumb.

Yeah, that one isn't that bad. I prefer small, subtle prints if anything... like I like the triangles on the console itself. That would be neat on a controller.

Yeah. Goodbye Xbox One threat. It was fun following this thread as an outsider looking at what games interested me, and the other side of the console community.
