also what will we call the original Xbox now
Original XBox: XBox
XBox 360: 360/X360
XBox One: The One (that shall not be played)
I was actually thinking "Xbox Classic" but that sounds like something a Microsoft fanboy would say.
 
First 64 bit Nintendo console: 1996
First 64 bit Xbox console: 2013
Microsoft, are you even trying?
 
You have got to be fucking kidding me. I have half a mind to collect all the computers in my house and sell them for Macs because of Microsoft's idiocy. (Kidding, but i needed to explain how dumb of a move this is.)

I know very little about this, but this new Xbox in general but (Quoted from the forum post that crash linked) sums up my feelings on it:

Want to lend a game to a friend? Fuck you, pay me.
Want to lend a game to your little brother? Fuck you, pay me.
Want to rent a game? Fuck you, pay me.
Want to play a game after the activation server dies? Lol. You're fucked.

Also the lack of backwards compatibility pisses me off to extreme extents, for both "Next-Gen" machines.

I think this is the point were I put all my consoles in a closet except for my SNES, N64 and Ps2 and buy a gaming PC. Because PC gaming, is not going downhill so much.

Ultimately, i wasn't getting this regardless, i grew up with a Ps2, and i own a Ps3, I prefer Sony's machines, but clearly console gaming as a whole is going downhill and I need to save up for a better computer.
 
Actually, the Xbox has never been 64 bit.

And to answer NSY's question, NSM already explained it, but I'll now re-explain it in my own words:
3DS: Lots of great games, that can only be found on that platform. High priority from 3rd Parties.
Smartphones/Tablets: Countless of people playing on them everyday. It's the future for Indie Developers.
PS Vita: Attention from 3rd Parties and Sony once in a while, almost no exclusives due to Cross-Play. And lots of PS3 Ports make it not worth getting.
Wii U: Started with lots of games, almost nothing happened shortly after. 3rd Parties rather stick with the PS3 and Xbox 360, due to the current Wii U sales. Nintendo is still hiding lots of new stuff for after the E3.
PS4: We know basically nothing about it, other than how the Controller looks like, and the fact it has the same specs as a High-End PC. Nobody knows if this support from hundreds of Developers is true, or just a broken promise.
Xbox One: It's a Console that has a bigger priority on Multimedia, than Games. Ships with an OS that's more suitable for a PC, than on a Console.

Apparently it requires Kinect to work. And has no backwards compatibility.
That's just stupid.
Ok, what?

Microsoft is so greedy. (I mean, I suppose all companies are, but compared to Nintendo and Sony anyway).

And I don't see why people would get this over say, a PS4 and Wii U (which offer lots more exclusives, and have most of the Xbox games on them)

And 360 --> 1?

Halo fanboys.

Well, I suppose, but from what I've heard the recent Halo games sucked. And not sure what other exclusives they have other than Forza, God of War maybe, and what Viva Pinata? There are probably some others I'm forgetting, though.

God of War is a Sony exclusive.

Er, God of War is a Playstation exclusive, you're thinking about Gears of War. But you're right, they could use some exclusives.

Halo 4 wasn't bad at all in my opinion.
 
LOL, Microsoft just dug their own grave for their Xbox One

If they announce Banjo Threeie, everything will change.

This can't possibly go wrong؟
 
I remember when a couple of my friends were like "Yeah, Xbox is SO superior to Nintendo and Nintendo can never beat Xbox."

I'm pretty sure that I just won that argument. Hell, the Kinect sucks. Every time I try to play it, it's so unresponsive and barely works.

Yeah, I meant Gears of War.
