That is one ugly console and so was the other. The original didn't look bad to me. The PS4 is also a ugly console.

GodGinrai3945d ago

Personally I like the design. dunno If ill ever buy one with the new consoles around the corner. Maybe later on down the road Ill get one cheap if MS cant be bothered to bring the current XBLA library to X1.

SideShort3945d ago

I bet all the people that disagrees also "prefer" symmetrical analog sticks. Seriously guys, the PS4 is indeed awesome, and it does not hurt to admit a fault or two, jeez.

Jakens3945d ago

I want this

"what if they decided to implement some backwards compatibility that way? What if they deiced to let your Xbox 360 do some cloud computing of its own? What if you were able play any games stored on your Xbox 360′s hard drive over the network on your Xbox One? This would be a nice way to implement backwards compatibility down the line and help get some extra love from the fans."

And more.

I think all those "what if's" would be nice but I don't think it'll happen.But I am glad they are backing the 360 for a while. And I do like the look of the 360 and X1.

Buying this for my mother to replace her Comcast box.

Xbox 360 has really shown that it can keep up with the test of time. Going forward the games mentioned in the article are some nice games. Games not mentioned were TitanFall, Plants vs Zombies Modern Warfare. There is still a lot of life left on Xbox 360. Kudos to MS for continuously supporting it.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil3d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai2d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing692d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle2d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal2d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa2d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal2d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II - PC Wore it Better

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.

dadavis19922d ago

Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.

Michiel19892d ago

there is a client made by modders and it also works online.

kevco332d ago

Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.

Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
