Remember when Microsoft released that 'making of Halo 4' video?
"Its like making a movie"
Yeah.
Gonna have to move XboxOne over to off topic soon enough.
lmao
What is that?

Yeah but the showstopper will be: best case scenario the Xbone sells 80M consoles in 5-7 years. And that's spread between (mostly) US, UK/Western Europe, and then the ROW.
Ok. But there are right now in America 100M cable subscribers.
Or if you're more forward thinking: 30M Netflix subscribers in the U.S.
If you're looking for a home for content, the Xbone wouldn't be my first choice.
It really is the 1990s all over again. Let me just state an irrefutable fact: you cannot marry the "storytelling power of TV with the interactive nature of games." It's a fucking pipe dream. They are two different mediums. At best, you'll get a half-baked version of what Kojima does. At worst, you get Night Trap and Sewer Shark.

The winner is you
Yeah, it's never bad to have options to make someone want to stay on the console, pretty sure Sony is going to do the same thing in some sort of form at E3, but it's the thing to poopoo on microsoft in every thread, lol.

Sony talks with Devs and Indis. MS talks with Hollywood.

Wouldn't these talks with TV execs have already happened months ago? If they showed live CBS during the reveal I thought the networks were already on board.
bubububu i thought e3 would be all about the gaemz

What are you talking about? I don't follow.
Also, I think it's so inaccurate that people think Netflix is a replacement for TV. It is not. Please, tell me when I can watch Live events on Netflix, and we can start to talk. If anything, the thing that will replace cable will be IPTV. Netflix and Amazon Video are complements to TV, not replacements.

Hataraku Maou-sama!, the best anime of the season.
I dont know why ms thinks none gamers are going to buy this expensive box that does very very little that other boxes they already own or cheaper boxes already do.
My point is: if you have awesome new content, why would you put it on the Xbone? It's new, unproven, and will have a smaller userbase than Netflix or Cable for the next several years.
The only content that would make sense is if it's targeted at the Xbox demographic and/or are subsidized by Microsoft (the Halo series).

The potential market for the Xbox One is huge because it covers so many bases.
A weird sense of entitlement, as if MS owes them a dedicated gaming machine.
If MS thinks they'll gain more by expanding into TV than they'll lose by moving away from games, that's their decision. I will enjoy it either way.

Irrefutable? It's barely been done. Let alone you start to throw in things like Kinect, Smartglass, and you can do more interesting things that weren't possible before. It's absolutely worth experimenting with.
MS opened a new division just to focus on this stuff. It's not like it's taking anything away from the games side. Think of it as an equivalent of Sony Pictures, but for MS (but nowhere near as big since they likely aren't going to do theatrical releases or anything like that).
