I can't comprehend being excited about the Xbone any more. Some of the games look okay but it seems like you're taking such a massive risk buying this thing at launch given all these rumours, I don't think I'd be comfortable with it.
If this is all true it will probably hurt Microsoft and the XBOX brand way more than launching late.

Exactly. I don't understand at all why they're so keen to launch this year. They are marching the brand into the grave.
 
I want to know CBOAT's info as well...

Right now GAF is just a big pimple.

every tweet and rumor about the xbox one is a bunch of oil and dirt building up in that pimple

and as soon as bish or cboat squeak they will be the squeeze of doom from the fingers of information

the juicy, puss like truth will squirt and ooze out all over us.
 
Here's what I think: I find it extremely hard to believe that a company who specializes in software and networking is going to have any kind of XBL issue, snap-in crashes or OS issues at launch.

I'm not exactly willing to wager any bets on it; I am just a skeptic at heart.


Stuff like Windows Vista happens even at Microsoft.
 
Multiple, multiple sources that are mod confirmed have said this.

We will see. We're a month out and there's going to be a firmware release day one. We'll see then if MS managed to sort out the issues and delivered on launch day.
 
Also it's way too easy to get a thread locked around here. Mods should delete the offending posts/posters rather than just close the threads.. which is likely the goal of some of the shit stirrers.
I appreciate your concern, but we can tell the difference and act accordingly.
 
I don't think they're being smug so much as being knee deep in deny mode. Deny everything until they can think of a good response. Or until after launch.

Or hoping they can fix it all in time. Maybe they will, who knows. The people experiencing these OS issues might not even have the latest version, so perhaps it isn't as bad as it seems. But it probably is.
 
What FUD?

X1 games being 720p and MS having issues with the OS?

I though this was confirmed by more than two insiders.

Seriously. Our sources are posters on GAF. It's not even out yet. Both systems will be out in the next month. I guess we'll see if these insiders like Mort and CBOAT are right.

I am buying both regardless.

It's best to wait it out on any big tech item. Gaf will be more fun than playing these consoles on launch day, anyways.
 
proelite? LOL

Pretty sure he was banned for his info being wrong about Xbox One.

Proelite is the first one to report the snap/XBL issues last week. He just didn't do it in an omigod the world is falling sorta way. He also said it in the 720p thread that got closed, so it got drowned out.
 
I don't understand it - they literally could've taken XBL directly from the 360 and put it on the One and people would've been fine with it. Instead they re-engineered it so that it works like the PS3 did (API used in each game instead of system wide)?
 
I check the first post and it's 8 pages. Log in and suddenly it's 9.

Wonder if I took a run if it'd be 20. Hell, only reason it's not there already is b/c it's a work day.

But yes, I are stunned with these developments. Casual consumers may not notice little resolution differences, but they'll notice when their system crashes.

Fix this shit MS..
 
This is getting seriously insane. Every single time I come back to NeoGAF there's a new thread with breaking news that is bad for either Sony or Microsoft. I feel like I'm in a neverending whirlpool and there's no way to know which way is up or down anymore...

How could it be any worse? I can't fathom it.

We've gotten info lately from various sources that Xbox Live (parties, friends, achievements, connectivity), Skype, Snap-In and Smartglass are all borked/unstable/crashing. And that's besides any ResolutionGate stuff.

We're beyond the looking glass. Have been for some time now.
 
I think he will just let it explode and then people will know. These threads though are just starting to get redundant.

I see these threads as the cloud of debris in the movie Gravity. A great shitstorm circling around.

MS is probably the shuttle.

MS haven't a fucking clue about networking (or software). They can monetize that shit like no-one else but when the chips are down.....no, just no.

They are excellent with regards to dev tools though, I'll give them that.

Just spin. Be zen. :P
 
I'm really enjoying the schadenfreude considering how little Microsoft seems to care about games. It's kind of delicious.

There's been bad news for Sony?
 
It all sounds like the same source through different channels. It's all bull until we get some sort of verification.

We don't even know when the source originally said these things. It might have been months ago and it's all fixed now.

At this point we only have the words of a few people, so we personally cannot verify it unless MS comes out and says it (lol like that would happen). Based on who is giving out this information and their track records, I'm leaning towards believing this is much closer to reality than not. And given the current track record, lack of any real rebutal from MS, and hearing from some of the same sources that the PS4 is having some OS issues as well, it seems like Microsoft has done fucked up big time.

Still, it should be considered a rumor and won't be concrete for us plebs till it launches. I wouldn't consider it bull either till Microsoft says it is, which is odd they continue to remain quiet on the subject.

Maybe J Allard should just come back and clear everything up.
 
If this is as bad as it's looking I can't wait for the Book to come out detailing Microsofts decisions with X1 and what(and who) drove everything to this point and off the cliff.
 
Someone needs to get a gif on the go of people fleeing from a hurricane as buttocks are strewn across the screen as debris.

I don't have the talent anymore.
