Signed up for email notification so when XBOX ONE is available for pre-order I'm on it.

XBOX ALWAYS > PS4

@negative: Well, one thing you can say for MS is that they managed to instill some crazy brand loyalty in you...considering you're willing to buy that PoS Xbox One the day it comes out... Which is weird...

TheBrit3988d ago

You all seem to be missing the big picture - this reveal was not aimed at the gaming side of the system, it was aimed at the multi-media side i.e. The yearly Consumer Electronics version of it.

The games / additional features / news is in 3 weeks at E3 i.e. The yearly biggest Gaming Convention.

I'm somewhat disappointed with it but gradually starting to warm up to it - don't shoot it in the foot just yet until you see the whole picture.

The optimist of the 1st degree. You do realize that most of what Microsoft introduced at the reveal is exclusive to North America, don't you? With the name "thebrit", that should probably worry you. You also realize that Microsoft is notorious for lame E3 showings? So not sure why we should expect anything different this year, especially after we watched an hour of what Microsoft thought we wanted in a gaming console; tv, sports, fantasy football, tv, talking too tv, etc. That reveal alone shows that they don't have a clue to what we want as gamers. I hope you enjoy waiving your arms around with Kinect games, EA Sports games, and other non-core, uninspired trash at E3. Anyone who thinks Microsoft is going to bring the heat in the games department at E3 is either delusional or hasn't been playing games for the last few years. Got a feeling most of those exclusives are all geared toward Kinect. I have already seen one of the exclusive they are talking about, it is called Ryse and it is all Kinect base. The gamer was kicking and punching and jumping around like a monkey. That is their interpretation of next gen and it sucks. Also, how can you be excited about games when all they showed looked so terrible. COD looked way worse than the aged Battlefield 3 running on a cheap computer. EA sports games looked just as bad. If what they showed is taste of what's to come, then I have already spit it out.

SexyGamerDude3987d ago

I've seen the picture. The picture is full of nothing but restrictions and fees. Microsoft hates gamers.

DARK WITNESS3987d ago

In the foot... I would F$^king shoot it in the ballz if I had half the chance.

All Call of Duty Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "Call of Duty has to be the most recognizable franchise on the planet. They didn’t get that way by only making a handful of games.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."

Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking

Minimoth796d ago

Yeah, it's close to the bottom. There are a couple of worse ones. Infinite Warfare definitely deserves its place.

KyRo796d ago

There's a number a lot worse than Vangaurd. It's also a lot better than that car crash Treyarch released before it.

XbladeTeddy796d ago

World at War is my favourite. Didn't know the N-Gage had a Call of Duty.

MadLad796d ago

Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.

I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.

TheLigX796d ago

I really enjoyed the Infinite campaign. Multiplayer... not so much.

Yppupdam796d ago

I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.

victorMaje796d ago

MW 2019 apart from the desastrous file sizes is way better than AW.

MadLad795d ago

That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.

It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.

Amplitude796d ago (Edited 796d ago )

Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.

Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.

Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain

Wore implementation I've ever seen,.. guess it just does not work all that great on every engine

MarkyMark891757d ago (Edited 1757d ago )

Agree, but this gives me hope that one day Ray Tracing can be a software based feature and not require some type of proprietary hardware to achieve. Software will always outpace Hardware so it could happen, but I feel like its going to take a lot more time to achieve the same level that RTX has already shown glimpses of so far. Really just waiting for Cyberpunk to see if RTX is actually something viable. I think if anybody can truly showcase RTX Features it would be Projekt Red.

zeal0us1757d ago

Too bad it doesn't make Mankind Divided a better game.

starchild1757d ago

It doesn't need to, the game was already fantastic, imo.

zeal0us1757d ago

Human Revolution was a better game and not to mention longer.

isarai1757d ago

Reshade is not raytracing, its a screen space post processing effect. Thats like calling SSAO "global illumination"
