This makes some of my friends reconsider their choice of choosing the One over the Ps4, cause they have to wait a shittton longer for a product that isn't really better than the PS4. I like it.
Microsoft and Sony are both really vying against eachother here, but it's almost like one step forward, one step back for Xbox One over and over lately.
XBOX: LONE
Good god, lower the release countries to 0 so no one can buy it. Get it out of the UK, at least. I don't want anyone wasting money on this piece of shite.

Heh, now I can tease my friends who were going to buy the Xbox One. ...No, hold on, I don't think any of them were going to.
If you buy either one at launch you'll probably get manufacturing faults 12-24 months down the line anyway.
Wow I just fail to understand how a console or its software is designed in a way that it needs to support certain COUNTRIES..? Limiting your markets seems really counter-productive. However great the vision with their online service might be, simply from a business point of view telling consumers you can't use a certain product to it's full extent or AT ALL.. nope.
The people in those countries shouldn't be upset. from what i have heard Micro$oft have done them a favor..
the more i read these the more i feel a need to go out and buy a ps4 on release
[QUOTE=TheAdmiester;41840366]Besides the price, the Xbox has really caught up to the PS4. Because of this, deciding on consoles is almost entirely a matter of opinion or which has the titles you want. I prefer the design of the Xbox's controller by far, it has the sequels I'm looking forward to, and most of my friends will be migrating to the One, so more people to play with.[/QUOTE] "Besides the price" is a pretty strong point, though. But if you like kinect and your friends are the getting the One anyway, I can see why you'd get it.
can't wait for xbox one to be released in North America and
[QUOTE=Rapist;41836389]One step forward, two steps back.[/QUOTE] That's hellova lot steps back.
They're still not launching in [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD_Projekt_RED"]Poland[/URL]. :v:
[QUOTE=IrishBandit;41845043]They're still not launching in [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD_Projekt_RED"]Poland[/URL]. :v:[/QUOTE] Like we want it here
Oh comeon,I wasn't really gonna buy one but what are they thinking?
[QUOTE=TheAdmiester;41837822]I don't understand the hatred, [B]it's only a console[/B]. I still prefer it and will most likely get one over the PS4 for my own reasons.[/QUOTE] Exactly. PC master race, steam pride world wide console peasants go to hell.
To be honest, I am jealous of the countries where the Xbox One doesn't launch in. I mean they're getting less bad consoles that we will overall with the Xbone out of the window.

Like, I can understand if the One doesn't appeal to you, but to some people it might. Choice is good for the consumer, and if the Xbox One does well, the PS4 might drop even further in price, making it an even better deal for you.
Developers look at market share to decide if something is worth developing for. If the PS4 manages to compete with the Xbox One properly in USA, it's going to dominate the market pretty much elsewhere, and be a much more attractive platform for developers.
[QUOTE=Viper1204;41844359]Micro$oft[/QUOTE] I was wondering when this would start picking up steam again.
why buy a console anymore anyway, they're literally just pcs now you're just asking to eat shit if you actually want to put up with paid multiplayer, hardware locks that force you into bundles, and all this other bullshit seriously for the price of an xbox one/ps4/some other asshat pc console you could just purchase a computer
[QUOTE=Fangz;41836376]No Xbox One for you Snowden.[/QUOTE] Bet he didn't want one in the first place, considering how the US would find him easily that way.

It is actually seventeen countries, unless the all of the countries in the UK did some sudden merging that I don't know about.

The games are not region locked so it can be imported.
[QUOTE=ZachPL;41866077]The games are not region locked so it can be imported.[/QUOTE] Yes, and everyone is going to happily pay all the extra money it will take to order the console and games internationally on top of the $100 more it already costs than it's much more available and appealing competitor. Said the worst businessman ever.
Nothing can stop the success of the Xbox now
