Really, it's been that bad? I thought that since to date the Xbox One has outsold what the 360 did after launch, that it hasn't been a horrible start to the year. I'm glad I came to this board, now I know just how bad things are for Microsoft.

I guess I will just go sell my Xbox then. Such a shame, here I thought it was a really good console with a lot of fun games to play.Haven't you heard? If MS doesn't do something this very second, they are going to go out of business by tomorrow.
I mean, the Xbox One has sold more than the Xbox 360 during did during the same time frame without competition.

Why does fps matter on a console? I have Never had a fps game or any game stutter or play like crap for me unless it was online mode that was goofed up.
It isn't even that they need a high FPS, just one that doesn't fluctuate. Dark Souls looked fine running at 30FPS and then you got to Blighttown and it turned into a slide show (on both consoles). It became super noticeable just how bad it was, and that was a problem.
Also, certain games require a stead FPS or it is an actual detriment to the game. If you aren't getting 60FPS on SF4, good luck getting 1 frame links.
I can't tell you guys much, but Halo 5 will utilize the X1 to the fullest.
Think Kinect, think Azure cloud servers, etc. This game will be the showcase for the X1, as Halo has always been for Xbox.
Excellent assumptions on my experience with things, stupendous work.
I'm basing my opinion of Destiny on what they have given us, which is one video of gameplay on the Xbox One. I don't know how it's apparently wrong to form an opinion of it, but you seem to think so, in which case I apologize to the whole of humanity for giving an opinion based on the information provided. That was wrong of me.
It has been bad for the Xbox compared to the PS4 but Microsoft itself is doing quite well. The Xbox is basically a hobby for Microsoft so while the failure of Xbox makes them look bad, it doesn't really affect the company itself. I do imagine that if they can't get back on track they will spin Xbox off though.That's all understandable. I'm just saying that like the weather, if there's something with the XB1 that doesn't seem acceptable, just wait a minute, it will change (other than the specs of course).
GWG can and probably WILL change, big time. It's one of the easiest things for them to implement in a better fashion for positive PR and goodwill with gamers.
Make no mistake, 2014 has been an unmitigated disaster for Microsoft on so many levels. But Spencer isn't going to sit on his hands. E3 will have surprises, and if $399 SKU doesn't lead in June/July, more massive changes will come. Microsoft can't afford to fall back much in the US, as they don't have the rest of the world to prop them up like the PS3 was globally last gen. There would be no PS4 if the global numbers had been like the US shift last time.
I guess I should elaborate.
$430 for XB1 + Kinect + Titanfall is better than :
$399 XB1 bare (the coming deal for summer)
and
$349 XB1 w/Sunset Overdrive (probable late fall/early winter deal)
Plus you get more months playtime. Waiting for a $50 or even $100 discount if you're going to use it a lot isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Waiting for games that you want OTOH is very valid. It seems the majority of the market is still waiting anyway.
Frames Per Second is important to anything you see on any type of screen. Whether it be a movie, game, or even an operating system on a mobile phone. It's very important on how smooth something looks. I don't understand how you saying you've never noticed it but it's always there. Many games, especially fast paced games like first person shooters or sports games need a higher FPS to look smooth compared to something else like role playing game so of frames per second drop below a certain point or are erratic, you can definitely see it which can detract from the playing experience or even make it impossible to play. I don't know why you say you've never seen it but even big name games have tons of it. Ever played Grand Theft Auto 5? There's tons of it there.
Looking forward to this collection!http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/05/16/halo-the-master-chief-collection-revealed

Even still, playing some of those multi-player modes will be awesome.*shrug* it seems like they're letting everything out early anyway. Remastered games are alright I guess but I've already played these.
What was stunning to me is that Titanfall is selling better on the 360 versus the One. Wasn't the 360 version considered an afterthought?
I never played Reach, nor ODST, but neither of those featured Master Chief, right?I like that the Halo collection is coming, but I think they're doing themselves a disservice by not including Reach, which I'd say had the best campaign of any FPS I've played (I'm freely saying I've not really played a PC FPS like Half-Life to compare).
That's all understandable. I'm just saying that like the weather, if there's something with the XB1 that doesn't seem acceptable, just wait a minute, it will change (other than the specs of course).
