The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

Utnayan im pretty much waiting as I hope you are as well. If they magically pull something out of their ass with E3 that is great for us all. Having a Scorpio would be fantastic but If all they have is Sea of Thieves, Crackdown, and "Coming soon with ETA 2019", I'm just going to upgrade the PC.


Also I'm pretty sure you shit all over Quantum Break lol.

I loved it up to the point of a game breaking bug that caused me (and reportedly 10% of players)to lose my save before the last chapter.

Nope. In fact I created the OP for it. I did however wonder why (For one post) it was being shit on in reviews and then said it bombed. Then I played it. I did say Microsoft sucks, and they still do currently.

Quantum Break Release Date - Xbox One/PC Cross Save 4-5

I am with you on Scorpio. MS has a lot to prove and a large hole to dig themselves out of.

Crackdown 3 without a release date is making me trade my XB1 for any store credit because it hasn't been turned on for anything but the kids playing mine craft in a year or two.

Yeah I can get $150 for this dust collector right now. Original X1 500 gb.

Not even sure why I bought it. Everything about it sucks ass. UI responsiveness, games, you name it. Most everyone I know has migrated to PS4 as well.

Well I implore you to wait like me until June's E3. Like Spronk, I got tons of BC games that will rock on the Scorpio's spec but god damnit we need games. It's just if MS doesn't step it up then I'm just putting my Scorpio money towards my annual Halloween Vegas trip.


I got banned off the Reddit for making fun of Sea of thieves too. Lol

Utnayan the new update got rid of that shit snap and the UI is super quick now.

Not that it matters fixing that shit 3 years later. It may be quick but it's all over the place.

The 360 UI still wrecks both PS4 and Xbone UI. I just want competition and I'm not going to defend these horrific decisions any longer. Either Phil turns it around in June or his new name is John Smedley the 2nd.

Yeah it still wasn't snappy for me when I logged in the other day. Controller input still lagged by 200ms (Game mode on and I am going through the Xbox to my receiver, not the Xbox tethered via HDMI for TV functionality) and was still very clunky with response. This was also after power cycling and clearing the cache.

Hmmmm weird fine for me. UI is stil garbage with the store and apps.

I think the dream scenario would be MS actually keeps pushing on their Win/Xbox platform unity thing and get to see stuff like Crackdown 3 playable on Win10, or games from Win10 being playable on the Xbox. It's the only way I see the Xbox library being robust enough to move units, regardless of how beastly the hardware sounds.

The problem is exclusivity. Putting games on windows killed any reason people will want to get a Xbox over PS4. This windows 10 thing is a joke. The app is atrocious and I only know this because I'm a complete achievement whore. It's like they went full retard after 360's beautiful store.

I will get one if it doesn't go over $499. I would like to see it cheaper, but I really doubt that it will since it will be the first next gen system out.
