So what did you mean by this?

Why say in one post you that have a "very very powerful PC that cost £3300 to build in december 2013" and that you only buy consoles "for the exclusives that will not appear on PC", yet later talk about "over lap" and how you "always have a powerful home PC. For the family for work/uni photo editing,video editing and converting"?

Why *did* you buy it?

Halo is not even out, and does not even have a release date.

You said Titanfall was "crap", before it even came out. Why buy an Xbox One for a game you think is "crap"?

And, given that you also stated that you only buy consoles "for the exclusives that will not appear on PC", why buy an Xbox One for Titanfall - a game that is also on Windows PC...and a game that would perform far better on your "very very powerful PC that cost £3300 to build in december 2013"?

All the games you've mentioned so far that are actually out are better graphically on PS4 or PC, both of which you have. So why have Ghosts and Tomb Raider and MGS GZ on Xbox One in addition to PS4? Or why not just have them all (bar MGS GZ) on PC? They're not exclusives...

Why get an Xbox One now, knowing that the PS4 (which you have) and PC (which you have) would perform better at the thing that you find most important? Why not wait until Halo was actually released, instead of wasting money on a console now just to play a game you think is crap, a game that would perform better on your PC?

How will anyone benefit from you constantly ranting and raving about how the Xbox One is "crap" and a "pile of bleep"? How will anyone benefit from you gleefully reporting PS4 sales figures compared to the Xbox One?

It does not seem like particularly constructive or productive criticism to just constantly slag it off...Are you so upset by the choice you mistakenly made that you have to attack the Xbox One at every turn?


I don't know what you think, but I'm not a fanboy.

I have an Xbox One. I also have an Xbox 360, and a PS3. And I *will* buy a PS4. Hell, I'd buy one right now if it played 3D BDs, which is the only thing causing me to hold onto my PS3 at the moment. I will get one when The Last of Us or Uncharted 4 or another ND game comes out, although if it still doesn't have 3D BD support by then (& the Xbox One still doesn't too), then I'll have to find some space somehow or get a new unit with more shelves due to keeping the PS3.

I will happily criticise MS and the Xbox One, and have done here and on other forums, along with on social media and elsewhere.

I have gone on again and again about the mess of a UI and its reliance on Kinect, along with its terrible media capabilities for something marketed as an "all-in-one entertainment system".

I have taken part in the March and April system previews, and have started and posted in multiple threads in the preview forums providing feedback on what works, what does not, and what is *still* missing after four months.

Most (not all ) of my criticism has been constructive, and together with other people's constructive criticism is far more likely to lead to people "benefiting" than your unconstructive ranting is.

I'm just trying to understand your "reasoning"...It baffles me. Why buy an underpowered system when you are obsessed with graphics. Why buy games for that underpowered system that you also have for the PS4 and could also have for your powerful PC, etc. etc. etc.
