HUGG Writes: have come to a conclusion. After much deliberation and a few arguments with myself, I have decided that I will not be purchasing an Xbox One, at least for the next 2 years. For a budding games journalist, this is a hard thing to admit. Not owning one of the next-gen machines means having one less set of exclusive games to write about and review, limiting what I can do in the future. I am not writing this to add to the already tedious rhetoric that Microsoft is having to endure around the Xbox One, but to try to explain why I intend on voting with my wallet and keeping it closed to the Xbox One.
"Marvelous Europe today announced an agreement with Dutch developers Little Chicken to publish their in-development supernatural life sim title "Moonlight Peaks" in Europe and Australia in 2026.
Sister company XSEED Games jointly announced that they will publish the title in North America, targeting a simultaneous release. Moonlight Peaks will join the growing library of third-party indie titles published by Marvelous Europe, complementing their internally developed catalogue of titles by Marvelous Inc." - Marvelous Europe.
Radioactive retrospective. TSA look back on the original trilogy of STALKER games, with the Legends of the Zone console release.
Love Contra? Love Vampire Survivors? Of course you do - in which case you should be getting involved in Vampire Survivors: Operation Guns.
I like the author's attitude and I have a suspicion a lot of people are going to follow suit, waiting rather for Microsoft to prove themselves when the Xbox One lands, rather than take it on faith and promises.
Personally, I never buy launch. That's when the machine will be at its highest price and so will all of the games. I intend to support my Xbox 360 and 3DS for a while longer and make the crossover to next gen sometime after a year.
Also on the RRoD, this guys paying courier fees and spending lots of time waiting. I think that might actually be relative to wherever you're living as I've had one Red Ringed Xbox and that took my local supplier 10 days to swap. No charge as I was still within my in warranty. Our local Nintendo and Apple suppliers also manage a quick 10-15 day turnaround.
the reasons why i'm not buying it are as follows:
- Sony 1st party games
- less powerful
- NSA and Kinect
- too big and ugly as hell
- expensive
- No hardcore support after first year
- DRM drama might be back at anytime
- Microsoft not clear about their console
@iamnsuperman: let's talk about that subject in a few months. MS said in the beginning that X1 was designed with DRM in mind, do you really think all that development time will be wasted? Wait until they get enough sheep on board and you will see what will happen.
The butt hurt fanboys disagreeing? is it because it's maybe more powerful than PS4? Or is it smaller?
I didn't even read his fanboy opinion because it's no more valuable than mine.
