I don't own a PS4, but that doesn't automatically mean I have an Xbox One. Poll is too limited.

  • It says "I'm an [b]Xbox[/b] player". It does [b]NOT[/b] say "I'm an [b]Xbox One[/b] player". I think that you're subconsciously wanting an Xbox One so you're reading everything that has Xbox in it as Xbox One. So, this reply is probably really confusing you.

  • It's true that it doesn't say Xbox One, but the Xbox One is the main competitor to the PS4, and as all the other poll options are about those who own or are planning on getting the PS4, while the only alternative for non-PS4 players are to be "Xbox Players". When talking about the PS4, a new console, not getting it because you are an Xbox Player implies that you will get the Xbox One instead. And even if it applies to an owner of any Xbox console, that is limited. You could be a Nintendo fan, or a PC gamer, or own multiple platforms and just be a "gamer" without any platform prefix.

  • If the title says "What kind of PS4 games are you playing so far?" then why would someone without a PS4 care about this thread anyway? The poll is clearly not for them. Does it really matter that much? Who would get so worked up about not being able to choose an option that would benefit nobody? I'm pretty sure that everyone would just look over it anyways because of the fact that it doesn't add to the "What kind of PS4 games are you playing so far?" discussion. The OP only has a certain number of poll options that he can use so why would he waste them on non-beneficial options.

  • I get what you're saying, but if that's the case, why even include an "I'm an Xbox player" option? "I'm not getting a PS4" would've been better, or simply having no such option at all.

  • I know this discussion is closed, but you wanted to ask me why I did the poll options like I did. I should expect that most players on this website are Xbox or PS players considering that Destiny isn't announced for the PC or the Wii U. So I made this poll for PS4 players since it has games the PS3 doesn't and Destiny is coming out for the Xbox players also and no other console, so I added a Xbox player option to the poll. Hope this sets your mind at ease!

  • I have no idea. Send OP a message and ask him. All I know is that you're making a big deal out of such a little thing that doesn't really impact anyone's life, except yours apparently, whatsoever.

    It doesn't impact my life. I just said that the poll was too limited, and that's it. For what it is, a poll, it could've been done better, as a poll is supposed to show the opinions of people. Obviously you can't do that if it's limited. It was a simple statement, I'm not really complaining (although it might have seem like it). I'll move on now =)
