    Why You Should Buy an Xbox One in 2015

    Going all-in on the all-in-one.
    By Peter Brown on January 30, 2015 at 12:36PM

     

    If you don't own an Xbox One, now's the time to pick one up. It didn't get off to the best start when it launched back in 2013, but if you're only looking at the past, you're missing what's ahead, and there's a lot to look forward to. Microsoft was on top of the world after the holiday season, having sold more consoles than Sony or Nintendo during the months of November and December. To kick off 2015, head of Microsoft's Xbox division and Microsoft Studios, Phil Spencer, recently presented an exciting look into the future of Xbox One, including how it will work with Microsoft's upcoming OS, Windows 10. Oh yeah, he also wore a Battletoads shirt, a not-so-small detail that may be a good sign that Rare, the Microsoft-owned studio with a sterling reputation for making great games, may finally be let off the Kinect leash and get back to doing what it does best. That's all speculation at this point, but what we do know is that in 2015, Xbox One owners will get the chance to play some very enticing exclusives and hopefully get an early taste of what happens when you bridge the gap between console and PC.

     

    Exciting Big-Budget Exclusives


    What better reason is there to choose a game console other than for its library of games? Microsoft's stable of AAA console exclusives got off to a great start in 2014 with Titanfall and Sunset Overdrive, but there's a lot of great games coming down the pipe, including Halo 5: Guardians from 343 Studios. Some people already got a taste of what's in store, with more than 20 million matches played during a recent, three week beta test. Of couse, there's more than just Halo; Microsoft and its partners are planning to resurrect a bunch of series in 2015 that found success on Xbox 360, including Fable, Crackdown, and Epic Games' Gears of War, the series that rivals Halo as the most iconic Xbox exclusive.

    There's also a handful of third party blockbusters that are either exclusive to Xbox One or landing there first, including Rise of the Tomb Raider, the highly anticipated follow-up to the 2013 reboot, which is supposed to bring the "Tomb" back to Tomb Raider in a major way. Quantum Break is also on the way from Sam Lake and Remedy Entertainment (of Max Payne fame). Quantum Break will play along with digital, episodic show, and the way you play the game, which features time manipulations as one of its primary themes, will impact the outcome of the show.

     

    You can't talk about exciting Xbox One exclusives without mentioning Scalebound from Platinum Games, the team responsible for the great Bayonetta 2, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, and The Wonderful 101. Most of what we know about Scalebound at the moment is that you and a dragon companion fight side by side in the wilderness against massive monsters. We also know that Platinum makes excellent action games. The combination of Platinum's design prowess and dragons sounds too good to pass up, so don't be surprised if Scalebound ends up being a system seller for some people.

     

    Mesmerizing Indie Exclusives


    While big studios are plugging away, there are also a handful of indie teams making games for Xbox One, including Capybara Games, creators of Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP and Super Time Force. The Toronto based team is prepping Below, a roguelike that embodies a strong sense of solitude and dread. The pulled back camera drives home the notion that you're small in the grand scheme of things, and Capybara Games has employed a foreboding palette and visual style that's worthy of what looks to be a difficult and downtrodden adventure. Who said games have to be cheery, anyway? We all need a little punishment, sometimes.

    Welp..................................I've discovered what happened to the RE purists.

     

    Instead of being the hardline, don't-change-anything curmudgeons

     

    They turned into FAUX HIPSTER BITCH trend-whores who suddenly think its the coolest to shit on RE4.

     

    I love how they're acting like they've been making fun of RE4 for a long time.

     

    RE4 is responsible for:

    -Gears of War

    -Dead Space

    -Uncharted

    -The Last of Us

     

    Pretty much the modern cinematic AAA third-person action game for the PS3/X360 and PS4/XBO gens.

     

    Why are you guys trying to pretend that this RE2 remake didn't come from calls from fans to remake RE2 with RE4's core design? People were calling for this 10 years ago.

     

    RE4 rules over you. Always has. And don't ever forget that.:lawd:

    cancelbound

    this was one of the most significant cancellations of all time. This game is one of the major reasons why I, and a ton of other people abandoned xbox. This one game is now a part of gaming history forever.

     

    Let me recount the history of Scalebound...

     

    There was a lot riding on this game, it was a huge high profile japanese exclusive that the 'Bone would never go on to get ever again. The absolute salt by the PS4 community when this was announced was huge, too. People like to forget, but NEOGAF weaboos especially would break down at the mention of this game. The whole world, especially Japanese game fans were all out for MS's blood at this time, and now they had stolen Kamiya's next masterpiece away from the '#4theGamers' Playstation, and Nintendo had locked down Bayonetta. The precious PS4 was getting shut out of platinum Games. (Nier wasn't announced at this time). Everything looks bright. I'm decked out in scalebound sigs and avatars, this is it: the Lost Odyssey moment for Xbox one.

     

    The fall begins...

     

    Fast forward a year or two from scalebound's reveal.  MS sells out to PC. Scalebound is now multiplat, and the Xbox haters rejoice. IF Scalebound is good, nobody needs an Xbone to play it. PS4 fans are still pissed though, seems like everyone, even the slimey hermits are included in Platinum's reindeer games, but not the cows, the gatekeepers of all japanese games. :rofl: They're fuming.

     

    Time goes by, the world is shocked by the announcement of Nier Automata exclusively for PS4. Seems Nier is back, completely unexpected, and it's only on PS4.Scalebound's worth is immensely lessened to cows. But there's more.

     

    At this time, Everything on Xbox flops. Recore? Shit. Gears? SJW 7.0/10 romp made by amateurs. Xbox is dead already in japan and we're begging for ports after FF type-0 moved maybe 25 units on 'Bone. Xcluded becomes the norm for japanese games. We all know our lineup sucks ass, we all know we have no japanese support, but we do have scalebound. We have scalebound, dammit!

     

    January 2017. Rumblings are that MS is cancelling a 1st party game. I hold my breath and pray it's crackdown 3. I pray it's Sea of thieves. Hell, I pray it's the next Coalition Gears or 343i Halo game. just not Scalebound, anything but scalebound! :

     

     

    it is. 

     

    A half-hearted, child -like reply by the clown in charge. "we belive itz better 4 gamerz, lol :woo:". He doesn't even take the time to type out the "4".  Fans are FURIOUS. "Focus on 2017 lineup:woo:" WHAT LINEUP? Halo Wars 2?  we have shit all and everyone knows it. 

    Neogaf weebs REJOICE AND CELEBRATE the cancellation - one less good game for the rival platform, no more japanese games for xbox. No more.

     

    Worry sets in.

     

     

    Disaster awaits in 2017...

     

    To add insult to injury, 2017 was probably the best year ever for PS4 and the worst year ever for 'Bone. Nioh is dropping, and it's AAA. Yakuza 0, AAA. Persona 5, GOTG level. Nier comes out; and it's a bonafide GOTY level hit. Everything Sony touches turns to gold, and everything we touch turns to shit.

     

    PS4 is delivering. No more greatness awaits, greatness is here and it's assfucking the 'Bone every week almost with an AAA qualityJapanese title. Switch is about to drop and 10.0 out of the gate with Zelda. Everyone is eating but us, hell, team Green are fucking starving at this point.

    2017 lineup for Xbone is so bad a huge chunk of the fanbase taps out. Japanese game fans? Hell, mentally we had checked out in 2015, but scalebound kept us grounded, now, that was no more. I can chart a 50% loss in fanbase in this terrible year alone. 

     

    I take the plunge: When faced with the impending decision to get a One X, I switch sides and get the PS4 Pro, saving myself $700CDN on a multiplat windows 10 companion shit box with no japanese games.

     

    2018 hits...

     

    PS4 doesn't relent its brutal anal assault on the Bone. Switch is up and coming, and becomes an even better platform. Bone is sinking to 3rd place. Sony puts out God of War, another 25% of xbox guys tap out and switch sides. FauXclusives are all 5.0ing and 6.0ing at this point. Xbox sinks to laughing stock status. Spiderman drops in sept, the remaining xbox fans scatter. It's over: Xbone hasn't just lost, it's dead and buried.

     

    2019: the current timeline

     

    My Bone sits on eBay, and i transition to PS4/Switch ownership, drowning in a back log of Japanese titles I was never afforded by the inept management at MS.

     

    Bone is at the bottom of the pack. A dumping ground for western SJW  multiplats. No identity, no exclusives, let alone japanese ones. Devs are gimping Bone X support because they just don't care. Bone had such a bad showing people question xbox's relevance in gaming. I anticipate being first in line for a PS5, never allowing myself to be on the losing side of XBONE ever again.

     

    This is the darkest timeline, and it all starts with the cancellation of scalebound. Make no mistake, this game was the death of Xbox.

    It's a repeated action, one of the few you seem to outwardly do here. You remember vague shit, weird things people have forgotten for months or years, things the person who posted them probably doesn't even remember. 

    so weird that someone would remember posts by literally the 2 most prolific posters on this board. shut the fuck up,  :D
