One thing I always like about your work Adam is that your a die hard console fan like myself. Many of the bigger youtubers are all really into the whole "LOL PC MASTER RACE" type scene and are hard to relate to. Same age, same love of dreamcast, same console passion, easy to connect with you as a viewer. Keep up the amazing work!

Andy Decoy Yes, you're a gamer first and a consumer second. Admirable, but you don't represent everyone. Platforms need exclusives to make people invest in them as opposed to others. It's just common sense.

+Alexander Barker I'm genuinely excited to see more XBox One exclusive content, just hope it stays that way.

Spencer Hosch I'd like them to, but at least the Saturn was popular in certain parts of the world. Most notably Japan where it kicked amazing amounts of ass. Sega didn't go bankrupt, what are you talking about? They're a 3 billion dollar plus corporation and continue to see rising profits every year.

Adam, seriously, your insight is tremendous. You have a great gift for creative and constructive criticism. The console developers should be paying you millions! It would have saved them a shitload. Thanks for your passion, and time. This has been a great series

Well, in regards to Sony, they do develop games internally. When the PS2 was dominating Sony bought out many studios, and created more from the ground up. They were mostly rebranded in the last 3 years to Sony [Location] Studio. None of them are third parties being commissioned by Sony, with the Sony brand slapped over the top, they are Sony. It's a small point, but yeah.

"If you're watching this on the day it came out" Don't be silly Adam I watch all your videos on the day they came out

I gotta say, I love me some achievements. They blew my 13 year old mind when the 360 came out and I still enjoy them to this day.

Thanks for your work on these videos. Very down to earth "reviews", and I love how open and to the point you are. Its tough filtering through the fanboy shit, and actually getting down to the gritty facts and details. While I will get all 3 consoles like I always do, but your Wii U argument won me over by far. Gonna be my first foray into the 8th Generation. 1. Great EXCLUSIVE games. 2. It actually plays games off the disc. I fucking hate that you have to install games to the hard drive on the other consoles. I,m already a PC gamer, I don't want that shit on my consoles too! That's why consoles existed in the first place, quick easy ways to play video games! Plus, I dont believe in digital games. Thanks again. You have always provided the best No Bullshit reviews, and I respect the hell out of you for it.

Thanks, as always, for the awesome insights. I'd like to point out that Microsoft acquired Nokia for the smartphone market and that the latest Internet Explorer is actually a decent if not one of the best current browsers, I personally used it out of curiosity and I like it a lot, never crashed on me.

I remember the time when i used to get excited about checking out the next generation of consoles. The first one that blew my mind was the Sega Dreamcast. I had a Saturn at that time but when i walked upon Sonic Adventure, that was it. I needed it, the bright colors, crisp "rival to reality" how sega called it graphics and how tiny it was. Then the Xbox came and I got that due to how it closely it resembled the Dreamcast. But the excitement of checking it out was memorable. The last exciting one or memorable was the 360. It had me drooling on my tv screen when that g4tech tv show icons showed this iconic episode on its breath in breath out design.The 8th gen is no longer exciting to me, its like that spirit of gaming is gone. Or maybe im just getting older (28 in a few days) but its sad to see what the future looks like.

Really looking forward to your gaming history videos, you know a lot, and you're so natural about it, you can keep talking eternally about consoles, and what's better is that you don't even need a script. You address every point there is and manage to do them in an order that seems highly educative and entertaining. Congrats to you for this ability of yours, I'm glad you put it in good use by doing these videos. I hope this channel takes off!

The xbox one has been my primary console so far. I use my xbox one way more then my PS4. I also bought it launch day with the kinect. To be honest I don't mind the kinect. The biggest thing I use it for is to activate the QR codes, because I'm lazy. Despite it being weaker then the PS4 I still play my 3rd party games on it. The xbox one controller feels better to me then the PS4 controller. At first I got a little bent out of the shape with the whole resolution being lower. But I went and got Metal Gear Solid for both the PS4 and Xbox one. I played them side by side and thought the differences were minor. In some cases I had hard time telling the difference. In the end I think achievements as stupid as they are, has me still connected to the xbox brand. Even then I have been really enjoying my xbox one alot, and don't regret being an early adopter paying $500. I was just tired of my xbox 360 and I just wanted something new. As far as a console I do see microsoft releasing one more console. I think the next console will be backwards compatible with all of the previous consoles. I could see a microsoft store where you can purchase digitally every generation of xbox games and play them on their new console.

They should've called it the Xbox Vista because of how much of a fucking fail it was at launch.

I'm from the future and the HDMI input is still on the Xbox One S and Xbox One X (Scorpio). Not only that, but backwards compatibility is now available and you can play Xbox 360 games and even original Xbox games!

I love all my consoles, and I'm using my Xbox One the most. Considering it was a $500 paperweight at launch, that's quite a turnaround.

I was tempted to get the xbone due to killer instinct as I am a massive beat-em-up fan (which is why I personally liked the dreamcast as their beat-em-up library was MASSIVE) but I refuse to buy a console for one game. If there were potentially more games that interrested me on the xbone then yes I would get it but atm there just isn't. This is the same thing that happened with me and the WiiU. For a long time there just wasn't any game that peaked my interrest. However that changed with Nintendo dropping game after game after game so I picked one up. Oh hum... maybe time to start bulking out the old N64 library again.

I love my x1 and am really excited for the future of it. I think they are backed up against a wall now and have to deliver us what we want. Kinda like the husband that cheated on his wife with drm and now has to make it up to her.

I miss the dreamcast I loved playing online

I have my drink, now I will sit back and enjoy :)

28 in a couple of weeks? Not on December 2nd I take it. Im 28 in a few weeks as well ha ha. I got an XBone not long ago, the place I was working at (a surplus store that sells damaged stock from Costco) had one come in, turns out someone had ordered it but never picked it up (it was a launch unit) and so, when that got cancelled they sent it to us as tho it was damaged stock. Opened it up, all perfect condition, never opened, 12 months free xbox live. Paid $200 for it. That said, in the last 2 months since I got it I have only turned it on twice... I have Forza 5 since it came with it and Titanfall since work also had some copies of it come in ($20 brand new, good deal once again), but haven't put any time into either. Not in the financial position to be picking up new games for it.

The Xbox One has actually passed the Wii U in sales. Please get better information.

This channel is growing fast and i think the reason is that people want quality and not the 1000th video of the top 10 of this and that, or fanboys hating against everything and thats 90% of gaming channels, besides unpacking and lets plays. So i hope this channel wont change, keep doing your thing and dont became too much mainstream ;)

Funny to hear your thoughts about exclusive Xbox One games considering that the majority of them I can play on my PC. What do you think about the Xbox Play Anywhere program?

+Michael Smith December 8th.

To me I think game-breaking bugs are one of the things that are killing this generation somewhat in a way. Games that are broken out of the box are much worse now than the 360/Ps3 days. Day one patches, I mean come on! I want the bug fixes on the disc, I don't want to have to rely on the internet for my games to be bug free! Because one day, those patches will be gone. Unless they distribute it like its a downloadable file you can put on a flash drive through your computer to your console so that way there will always be an easy way to get those patches. When the 360/Ps3 servers go down, I think most if not all the patches will be on the internet somewhere (if you know where to find them) because those consoles can already be easily modded and be installed.

Now that they are doing backwards compatibility with the one are you going to switch back over? Also I think a yearly update for 8th gen consoles would be good. A lot has changed in 2015

Best commentary I've seen that sums up the Xbox One & Microsoft. Well done.

I watched the Xbox One reveal event, and it was the worst console event, of any kind, that I've ever seen. Still, I just don't understand why some people are still angry at them, when they've changed what we as gamers didn't like. I love the "Control Freak" t-shirt, BTW! That's awesome!

You are worried about the Xbox One's future! have you been looking at the sales recently! Sony has been found out! all hype no content! good luck selling The Last of Us and GTA V bundles! that says a lot about the games available on the system! i should know i have both Next Gen consoles! and i prefer the Xbox One, just my opinion! i'm looking forward to next year, many great games coming out for both systems, looking at what is coming next year, i think the Xbox One will have a stronger year! i'm curious to see what happens with Direct X 12 and Windows 10 i enjoy the videos, keep it up! it's all about discussion and opinions! :)

love these long discussion videos, more please Adam!

It would be sweet to do another video on the Dreamcast about the development of the Dreamcast and it’s add ons that never saw the light of day. And various facts about the Dreamcast. Segaaaa!

Wow, I am really glad I waited for the S model to get myself a Xbox One

I must say.... i LOVE your channel...when i have free time I just listening to you ...you got bunch of interesting information.

Also, I love how passionate you are about gaming. It looks like you are about to cry in some of your videos and I respect that.

Oh my god....you sir have said what me and my uncle have been saying for a long time. Well done. Well done

The Kinnect is what I call a "Parent Peripheral." It sounds good to parents.

Last gen of consoles soured me forever. I am now a PC gamer and it took a while to transition over but all I have to do is upgrade my hardware every 5 to 7 years.

In retrospect, Microsoft was trying to fix things like what SEGA SHOULD HAVE done with the Saturn in a sense

I'm sure someone else already posted this, but it's funny how EVERYONE was saying, "it would be awesome to have backwards compatibility, but we know it probably won't happen." But now it's coming. I understand it was COMPLETELY unexpected, but everyone was so sure. But it's a good thing; we got what we wanted.

This video hits on so many points that made me wait until just two weeks ago to get the Xbox One, after buying the last two gens on or around the release dates. I was expecting a system that would literally let me pull my 360 off my component rack and stick the Xbox One in its place and keep going without missing a step.

Very much liked this series. I wish there were more 8th gen consoles for you to talk about.

I love your videos so far. You're knowledgeable and informative, without seeming pretentious or condescending. You have your opinions while still respecting the opinions of others. I don't agree with you on everything, but I think that's part of the draw of your channel. You can have differing viewpoints and still remain civil.

How fitting that on the eve of its one year anniversary, the Xbox One has surpassed the Wii U in worldwide sales. I was honestly surprised that it managed to keep its momentum for that. Could this mean the two consoles will be duking it out in numbers for the next few years?

I understand that I'm sort of the fringe user who actually uses the xb1 the way I think MS intended when they announced it. (i.e. tv functionality, all of my games are digital versions, I use my kinect almost exclusively for cable and tv control.) So perhaps im biased but i dont seem to get whats not to like about the xb1. Before on the 360....i had to constantly keep track of discs that often ended up in cases for other games, got too scratched up to read, and i could only ever play whichever game was in the tray. Now i have no cumbersome library of games that are taking up space on a shelf. Only 3-5 of which are actually in circulation at any one time. Noone plays their entire library on a consistent basis. When one game drops we play it until its lost its 'newness' or until the next highly anticipated title drops then we move on so by the time 4-5 new titles have dropped, that first game you purchased hasnt been played in months... I can switch between digital titles instantly with a voice command. I dont understand the obsession with hard copies in the Itunes era. The gaming industry seems to be one of the only ones that users have not made the full leap into digital distribution just yet. Music and Movies are far ahead in this space. Now I now what most are thinking....HDD space! Yes you can fill up 500 GBs quick if your entire library is digital, however like I said before....I havent played Titanfall since a few months after its release so I uninstalled it with the knowledge that if I ever get the itch to play it again, its a download away. I feel freedom with the xb1. Granted its had some things that have bugged me as well. I wasnt thrilled about no backwards cap, or Media Player(at launch). But monthly updates have continued to improve the console. I am a very satisfied customer. Why are so many people upset? P.S. an often undiscussed feature is the Play to Streaming feature. With the xb1, I have the ability to stream movies straight to my xb1 from my PC.

Should I buy a xbox or a ps4 if I want to buy a Ps4 but my famliy wants to buy the xbox one because of the apps such as skype ect

I just have to say... WOW. I am not a gamer, nor do I have or plan on buying a current generation console, I am not a PC gamer either. All I have is a Nintendo 3DS because of nostalgia and Smash Bros (and also a few hidden gems I have found while waiting for Smash). When it comes to brands, I would totally defend Nintendo all day long. Again, nostalgic reasons. I LOVE the fact that you are not biased in this generation. I don't talk smack about Sony nor Microsoft because I know that they are amazing at what they do. I hate fanboyism (if that is even a word). Adam, your three videos that I have watched have taught me SO MUCH about the current generation and the path gaming consoles are taking. I've learned the struggles, the pros the cons A LOT. Even though I am not a gamer doesn't mean I don't pay attention to video games, I grew up with the NES and the SNES and always find interesting what is becoming of video games today and hey, maybe one console will one day catch my attention (Like the GameCube did). You sir have earned a new subscriber! Love your videos dude, keep up the good work!

I finally got to watch the rest of this video & I think I will keep the rest of my opinions to myself but I did like the last 10 min of it, at 48 ive been a gamer for over 25yrs so I think this will be my last gen of gaming but it dosent mean I wont stop collecting games for the previous generations but keep up the good work & i look forward to watching more of your videos :) Cheers mate

Great video Adam, so here's my take as PC Gamer: Your analogy of "I have a reason to buy this" doesn't works because of the tremendous disparity on both the much better quality (potentially) on the PC and the price and convenience of the PC (Let's face it: Steam is pretty damn convenient and brutal when it comes to price and delivery digitally, if you're willing to go digital it's miles ahead of xbox live for that) If the level playing field was more equal I'd agree but it's like comparing 2 completely different console generations or worst and even then PC gamer ends up being cheaper factoring in what you pay for games when they're heavily discounted. Though you're exactly right about finding interesting new games not just bribing a big name title for Exclusivity rights, games like Star Citizen on the PC that are crowd funded and still miles ahead of anything on the consoles can potentially ruin Microsoft's shit in a hurry if they don't understand this and work with indies and smaller guys and MAKE em big

I'm close to your age bro, I love achivos. Don't forget you save 3 percent once you get to 75k gamer score. Dlc savings for what you really can't get physical

I love this channel man its great... As a PC gamer i feel differently about playing and developing games as most console gamers would agree. The reason i enjoy your channel so much is that you give insight into the actualities of console hardware AND software, as well as your opinions about such. I'm super exited to check out your other channels and also hope that AdamKoralik will continue producing videos w/o having to rely on new consoles to provide content in which to critique upon. I appreciate your opinions and hope you are able to continue doing so (+1 subscriber gained).

Tired should go to bed but had to watch the video and most of the comments. Good job

Tbh I’m probably the “one guy” who likes the 360’s Kinect and is ok with the Xbox One’s Kinect, I can totally see why people don’t like Kinect though

Adam, as always, great video.

Just watched your xbox one 6 years later video. Had to come back and check out the 1 year later. Isn't it crazy that Microsoft are doing a lot of the things you proposed. Do backwards compatibility , they did. "Heck even the original xbox" they did. Go buy studios and make your own exclusives … they bought 16 studios. Ever wonder did they see your video and they were like , okay this is the feedback we needed. Listen to what this guy is saying and make it happen lol

Microsoft straight up went all in and bought Zenimax

you should make an update on what the current state is with the xbox, you make awesome videos dude!

They make Forza. It's legit the only reason I want an Xbone. Also, for those wondering about the Windows naming scheme, the reason they're jumping from 8 to 10 is because calling it Windows 9 would cause an insane amount of programs to stop working due to the way code refers to older OS iterations. (specifically '95, and '98.)

I really hope you do another one of these for this year. A lot has changed over the past year and into this holiday season. Interested to see your thoughts on both, I'm finally going to be getting a PS4 for myself over the next month!

The counting for Windows versions is actually counting the number of publicly released NT kernel versions. 1. Windows NT 3.1 2. Windows NT 4.0 Workstation 3. Windows 2000 (NT 5.0) 4. Windows XP (NT 5.1) 5. Windows Server 2003 (NT 5.2) 6. Windows Vista (NT 6.0) 7. Windows 7 (NT 6.1) 8. Windows 8 (NT 6.2) 9. Windows 8.1 (NT 6.3) 10. Windows 10 (NT 10.0 - as of the latest leaked build, formerly 6.4)

You said it 21:00. Backwards compatibility. PS3's in the first run with PS and PS2. Wii U with Wii games. I have all the consoles to play them, but it is just nice to have the option to have a few consoles to run all the games. So when you have the itch to play a game, you don't have to have an elaborate multi console set up to play a game.

The irony of this situation is that Don Mattrick stated that the console that got to 10 million units first would win the generation. I wonder what he would have said now if he was still in his position.

Excellent point on exclusives. I am a long time PC gamer, and I have to say, the only recent consoles I own are a PS3 and a PS Vita. Why? Because I love importing games and visual novels from Japan, and because these games are "Exclusive" to Sony's consoles. I am a Sony Guy. I'll probably get a PS4 in a year or two when they release more Japan-only exclusives for it. Excellent points, good talk as usual. Keep it up Adam.

So how do you feel about this upcoming year with Halo 5: Guardians, Scalebound, Ori and the Blind Forest, Crackdown, Gigantic, and such? I'm just curious to be honest, because I am most certainly loving the Xbox One console game library.:)

Microsoft also sells the Xbox, at a loss, gives them massive tax breaks. I think Microsoft is trying to diversify outside of OS and I think they might make something like Netflix or something related to TV

Great video Adam! :)

Enjoying the Xbox one controller works perfectly with my PC. Picked it up for $40 amazon sales.

Adam, you're my favorite peasant of all time. I respect that you're a console gamer and that's how you like playing games, I was too before I saw the light. I just want to say that a gaming pc can be made for cheaper than a current console, and will perform better (and for much longer) before needing to upgrade, unlike a console. AND! I must stress that multiplats on pc and some really good steam games can be played with a controller on pc. You don't even need to get a special pc controller to play with one on pc, just grab your dusty old 360 controller and plug it in, I say 360 controller because it is superior to the playstation controller in every way. You probably already know all of this but I feel that other peasants should know this as well. I also want to say that I have nothing against consoles at all. I love my ps3, I use it to watch netflix all the time. Anyway, your videos are awesome, please keep up the good work, PCMR!

I remember being excited about new consoles. The SEGA Saturn for instance, where I could play all those model 2 amazing arcades at home! Or the Dreamcast, the same amazing arcades and crazy Japanese games at home. Console games back then were so unique and so different then the pc games that were also really fun but on its own way... But nowadays and since the last gen, they are all the same... Pc games and console ones... Where has the fun gone ?

I too found the name confusing at first, and I'm not saying I think it's a good name for a console, but I at least think I understand the logic behind it. I don't look at it as a reboot for the Xbox brand. I think the name originates from the concept that the Xbox was intended to be THE ONE component in people's home entertainment system, to rule everything. The main hub, or whatever. All the other components were meant to run through it. Does that make sense? I might be completely off..

Hi Adam. Love your channel. A few days ago you made a video about the first year of the ps4. Your biggest problem with it was the fact that it only comes with a 500gb hard drive, but as far as I know the problem is not as big as you made it out to be. I'm pretty sure you can just replace it with a bigger one (doesn't have to be an external one which would require an extra power supply). Please correct me if I'm wrong. That being said, keep up the good work Adam!

You are incorrect about xbox 360 emulating the original xbox. Nothing was emulated, the xbe files (the actual game code) was ported over to the xbox 360. These xbe files were included in the backwards compatability updates. The game resources (images, graphics, sounds, etc.) were streamed off of the disc.

Edit: by the way i love kinect. Not for playing games but to switch besides aps and games or to turn off the console. Everybody know the situation when you have the perfect position on the couch and you recognize that the remote controll is far far away on the other couch site. With kinect you dont have to move, just use the kinect voice controls and everything is fine :)

I think “Xbox One” is a good name. It's the One Device for all your entertainment. It puts an emphasis on its multimedia center capabilities. There's no need for a number. It's streamlined. It's clean. By the way, Sony did something similar with their first multimedia console: Rather than call it “PS2 Multimedia” or something, it was simply labelled the PSX. And that, too, was despite the first generation being known by the same name.

Interesting, seems like they are finally doing a lot of what you requested, maybe they are listening. So have you updated your opinion on the console? Is the Ps4 still your main? What are your thoughts now with backwards compatibility, tons of new exclusives, the decision to lose the Kinnect for the most part, etc? Being a fan of both Ps4 and Xbox1, I put alot of thought into buying my Xbox over my Ps4, but for months I worried if I made the right call, now about 8 months later I am feeling really good about my desicion. I will consider buying a Ps4 in the future but for now I feel like they are really lacking in games im interested in that I can't get somewhere else. By the end of next year it seems like they will have some better stuff out but I think they should have done a better job having exclusives for the holidays this year. I would love to see you make some updated videos now 2 years in on the different consoles. Thanks

Ryse, Dead rising 3 are already on PC (saw both on Steam for 30 a piece) and Sunset Overdrive is yet another title that will be destined for PC via Steam (though my apologies I noticed you said it in the video :) ). I do agree with consoles needing their exclusives to keep their platform interesting. good vid Adam and happy gaming :) .

There is no one on KZfaq more console savy, or console knowledgeable than Adam! I don't game exclusively on console. But my gaming PC is in high demand around here and my gaming time on PC is rather restricted. So I am often regulated to my HDCRT TV and the consoles for much of my gaming. Adam was saying we need a reason to buy a Xbone, but the PS4 is in the same boat. There isn't a whole lot on it. I picked one up for Final Fantasy XIV, which I also play on PC. That and I enjoy playing quality Japanese console games. If it weren't for FFXIV I wouldn't be owning a current generation console at all. I do like the PS4. It runs FFXIV like a champ, and playing with a controller in a over stuffed swivel chair is comfy! Looking forward to playing some good single player games for it.

Hi AdamKoralik, I wanted to know your thoughts on the future of the Xbox One after now knowing that they are making it somewhat backwards capable with 360 games, as well as going to have support with the Oculus Rift. Do you think either of these will help put more Xbox Ones into peoples houses? Are these good moves on Microsoft's part?

Loved this series of vids. Looking forward to next years. I agree completely with you on the backwards compatibility. If XBONE could play games from all 3 Xbox consoles It would never get unplugged in my household. As it is now there is no point in me having one.

22:57 This is a very very good point.

The Xbone is actually only 3 months old where I live, cause Microsoft wanted to "Make sure it was ready for the specific markets" Even though they couldn't even be bothered to make the Kinect understand my Language AND preventing me from selecting English (Which I wanted to in the first place) Region locking a language select. Brilliant work M$ So my Kinect is basically even more of a paperweight than your's ;)

Ever think of porting your audio to a podcast, I think it would translate pretty well, and the subjects you talk about are interesting. I would definitely subscribe if you had a podcast.

+De Lorean Thanks dude!

That pay wall was stupid, but I still find myself running into it sometimes. I do not know why, a bug perhaps.

Do you get notifications from people editing comments that got a heart from you?

Honestly no upgradeable hard drive cd drives that burn out no thanks

Achievements aren't completely pointless, on Live Rewards depending on your gamescore you do get a cash rebate on Marketplace purchases, but I think the main reason for achievements instead of just an ego thing is that its like a checklist so you can try and finsh as much of the game as possible

I agree with everything this guy said!

A lot of the things you say make it seem like you don't like the idea of having the PS4 as your console of choice :(

Microsoft probably didn't think timed exclusives would change the minds of people who want a ps4, they did it to help sway people on the fence about which console to buy. If you were unsure about what console to buy and they are both similar with different gimmicks. Seeing a rich company like Microsoft paying to get the games early would change some minds. If Microsoft keeps up the timed exclusives they could get an edge. It may piss you off but its not meaningless. Just thought i should point that out. People seem to think these time exclusives are meant to get people to switch platforms, no, its likely meant to coax the people who are still unsure.

Hi Adam, I'm not really into gaming that much anymore but I have enjoyed binge watching your videos lately haha, I thought it was interesting when you were talking about caring about achievements and not about trophies, I was wondering what you thought of the idea of sony or microsoft offering money rewards/discounts in their online stores for players accumulation of trophies/achievements. I know you personally wouldnt have much use of this as you don't support digital, but as you have mentioned you don't represent the majority of the market in that respect. I'll use the playstation to explain as I dont have any experience with xbox because the playstation has been my console of choice ever since I grew up with the ps1, but theoretically the same idea could apply to the xbox. Sony could offer players money added to their playstation store wallet for the trophies they obtain through playing games. They could even create a new tier of (more challenging?) trophies that would be the only trophies that can give any monetary reward, obviously once it was known how to obtain the trophies it would be up on the internet and everyone would know how to get them, assuming they are willing to accept that they could even make that tier apply to EXCLUSIVE titles, giving people a reason to buy their console and also giving game developers a reason to make exclusive games for their console because in my opinion more people would buy the game if they knew that by playing that game they could make 5 or 10 dollars or whatever the amount would be that they could then put to purchasing any other game or dlc from the online store. Like I said I know you wouldn't get much out of a feature like this but i was wondering what your thoughts would be on it from a marketing point of view? looking forward to watching the rest of your videos haha

+Amazing Dr. Grant Thanks!

Why did they even bother releasing this thing in Japan? I have a Japanese friend he told me he didn't know a single person with any kind of Xbox when he lived there. Lots of people there don't even know the Xbox exists according to him too.

The saving grace as a XB1/PC owner... Dead Rising 3 port on PC is not very good. So while it may not be an XB1 "exclusive" any more, the better version is STILL on XB1. On paper, it looks bad, but once you experience DR3 on PC and XB1, the educated gamer will know, the best experience for that game is on XB1, and we're seeing MORE and MORE console to PC ports that aren't very good. But I will agree, at this moment, there isn't a solid reason to own an XB1 if you own a gaming PC.

A lot of good points here, I have an xbox one. I am truly thinking of buying a PS4, since I have heard so many good things. Great stuff!! subbed and liked!

Well it did not get a port in 6 months. It didn't get a port for 4 years.

I have a gaming PC, a Ps4, a WiiU and an Xbone, and out of all those options the device with the most dust on it is my PS4. Multiplatform titles I generally buy on Xbone because of the controller. I think the PS4 controller missed the mark and the thing constantly has a dead battery.

brand loyalty is weird concept to me. If you have it then You're basically telling a company "I'm buying your products no matter what, it doesn't matter how good or bad they are, I'm in your corner and you've got my money". On the other hand Without a good solid foundation of brand loyal idiots who can't think for themselves, would any of these companies have the capital to make these really expensive AAA titles? Sure More money doesn't necessarily equal a more fun game, but it doesn't hurt to have the cash to fund development. Especially if that company really puts the money to work for the good of the game and doesn't just pocket it to please their wallets/stockholders. A bigger budget almost always equals a more graphically appealing game, and graphical design is a huge component of what makes a game appealing, whether you want to believe it or not. In some cases, it makes a mediocre game tolerable, and a good game even more enjoyable. but that's a different debate. Brand loyalty/fanboyism, not so sure its a good thing for the consumer. The only thing I'm sure of is that it benefits the company.

Hey man I enjoy your content and can you please make a video about the PSVita if you can because I'd like to here your thoughts on where the Vita went wrong.

I purchase all consoles at launch for exclusives, so this video hits home for me, even as a crossover PC/console gamer. However - the XB1 caters to me in very direct ways: 1) I love Halo - and I don't care about online play AT ALL. I literally bought the MCC just to play co-op with my fiance. 2) I love Forza 5, and don't care for Horizon 2. I am the exception here. 3) I dream of a GoW collection or another GoW game in general. Great video!
