Xbox One - Where Microsoft actually listens to consumers

[LockedOut]

It must've been the DRM holding things up.

[Russic]

Not an Xbox fan, but if I were this would make me happy. There's some good games here and they are more unique than I expected.

[SuperMatt18]

Yeah I was thinking of getting both systems (ps4 for sure but on the fence about XBOX One) but the conference today showed they are at least looking at being original and adding some new exclusives beyond Halo and Gears of War.

One trend I hate is bringing the style of games that are successful on mobile to the platforms. I don't want mobile games, even if they are good, on a platform.

Whatever the hell that Black Tusk game was looked awesome, even if it was just 20 seconds.

KI3 being made by double Helix that made a pretty mediocre Silent Hill game? Time to temper expectations

[Ashasx]

What Lies Below looks great.

Dat Halo

[Ashasx]

Too expensive.

[cDnStealth]

I didn't think Dead Rising 3 was exclusive but he just confirmed it.

$499.99 USD

So $549.99 CDN my guess, which is obviously stupid as it should be the same price.

[LockedOut]

Uhm. A little higher in price than I expected.

[chemgear]

$499 price point. Initial response seemed stunned - at least until Microsoft employees cheered.

EDIT: Wait, and this is just for the tiny 500 gig version right?

$499, November 2013

Will see if the PS4 comes in cheaper, because that is a little steep. Wonder how much of that is due to the HD Kinect. Have to figure it is at least $100 to $150 of the cost.

[Jbo]

Wow almost the same territory that the PS3 launched at

[chemgear]

Well, you have to pay for the Kinect hardware afterall? They're forcing down your throat and you get to pay for it.

[chemgear]

Titanfall looks cool.

[drPepper1]

These first person shooter game play graphics look the same as games on the 360

[Jbo]

All that press conference did for me was affirm Xbox one will not be the console I go with at launch. Unless Sony drops a megaton of crap it will be Sony starting me off in Next gen

[The Yen Man]

MS should pull a Sony and tell people to work more hours so they can afford their console lol. $499 seems kind of steep, but pretty much what I expected it to go for.

[cDnStealth]

$500 is what the 360 launched at. The PS3 was $600 at launch.

[Ashasx]

Fanboys are going to have a field day with the sound issues.
