But..... ain't this video like, 7 years too late?? Xbox got all the momentum going on right now. Z fuck even is dis?
What momentum? all they have are tweets and interviews... the FF VII demo is better than any game released on the xbox one over all its lifetime!
My story with the xbox systems:
OG - this machine was pretty amazing, loved many games on it (however I was never a fan of Halo, especially on consoles)
360 - never got one, by the time I had a PS3 the whole RRoD issue was well known, so as a responsible adult I got the PS3 (mainly for media at first, as I was more of a PC gamer at this point in my life), however the indie games on it, and a couple more I can't bother to recall, picked my interest enough that I cane close a couple of times, the machine had a good reputation. I even told some people they should get one, especially if they planned on playing online.
One - Never even thought about it as a serious contender to the PS4, never recommended it to a friend/family, etc.
It's hard to claim real momentum when you come off of such a disappointment and never did anything important to recover (make amazing games, you will barely need any hardware at all to convince people to buy your machine)... sony did screw up on the PS3, they had a two level recovery plan:
1 - Create GREAT software to showcase your system
2 - Make your platform and services enticing to clients (PS+ offered great games, the OS was streamlined, I don't really care that much about these aspects honestly, but it may have tipped the scale)
Ms is only doing the platform and technology side, this is useless if the games don't follow.
