Xbox has won nothing

First off, I'll be the first to admit Microsoft did better than sony this year at e3. As a playstation fan, i was actually kinda disappointed because i expected more. But, since this forum has been flooded with fanbabies claiming "xbox has won, ps4 is dead", i feel like some* people here need a reminder: Ps4 has DOMINATED xbox in sales since release. We're talking double the sales until recently (likely due to Microsoft having to continuously cut its price down $100-$150). So yes, Microsoft had a good show. But they haven't "won the war". They are just trying to catch up, and they still have a LONG ways to go. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2015/04/xbox-one-slowly-narrows-its-quarterly-sales-deficit-against-the-ps4/ *I'm not referring to fans who are proud that Microsoft finally pulled something great. It's about time, and I'm happy for ya. I'm referring to all the shit talkers her. If that doesn't apply to you, don't take offense.

      I think both Microsoft and Sony did perfectly well at e3. It depends what your own gaming preferences are to some degree. I've played all the halos and gears of wars in the past, but those series no longer appeal to me. And the single player gameplay footage of halo5 was alarmingly reminiscent of call of duty's style rather than of halo

    • Microsoft brought with them ground-breaking technology, new exclusives, and xbone's Fall update effectively making xbone into a PC. Sony just showed multi-platform games with stupid gimmicks to get people to switch.

              • Uhm.....Why is everyone sleeping on sony's effort to revolutionize gaming and gradually set the bar higher with 'MORPHEUS' imagine playing Mass Effect 4 exploring planets and shit with that.

                      XBox fans don't realize that Halo and Gears are their only selling point and they don't come every year. They also haven't had any original exclusive IP over the years become a triple A title unlike Sony who just this year developed a new one in Bloodbourne. Xbox doesn't have in house developers who are making games like Horizon and The Last Guardian. Sure they can flop like the Order or they can become another exclusive triple A franchise like only Sony can put out. Also it's sad how Xbox is about hardware mostly still and that's how "they won" when Sony was about games like a real gaming station should be for real gamers.

                      • Playstation shows true next gen games and people say they were boring. Xbox shows some virtual reality that doesnt work in any way like we saw on our tv, a backwards compatability for games we already played and a controller the price of 2 games. Maybe i'm old but i just really don't understand gamers these days.
