do you honestly believe that in 7 years and hundreds of dollars worth of price drops/used systems... that everyone couldn't own two systems??

there was a point back when games were different on two consoles... or each system had about 100 exclusives...



but i think there's about 5 exclusives i'd want to PLAY on xbone... let alone buy.... and most the multiplats look worse... so why would i waste the money on that



let them drop something i really want, and i'd be right there buying one like any other person would be... nobody is that damn poor
the point is not everyone can afford to buy a system for 5 exclusives.

me personally... im a gamer, so i buy all consoles and have a gaming pc. i don't miss out on a thing.

Having more than one console is sick and twisted

Pick a side


I was a Nintendo baby and a play station teenager and adult.

i think everyone can... but they chose not to... cause that's fukking dumb


i mean yes... if i hit the lottery, i'd get everything just to do it


but you can't tell me these dudes are spending 400 on a system... 50 on a second controller... 300-400 a year on games... 500 and up on a hdtv... plus everything else in their life... but can't afford a system



fanboyism is created by brand loyalty... same thing in everything you buy... some people will always buy jordans even if they are not technically the best looking or made shoe... why? cause they love jordans and "hate" reebooks... could they go get two pairs for the price of jordan's... yup


it all revolves around branding... one company saying they are the best and their customers are the best/smartest/know what is quality... and through advertising, you make your customers believe they are better for being down with you.... so they do promotion for you and come back and buy more shyt


see whole foods

it is but it's a successful part of marketing and advertisement


getting them to look at your stuff is easy... getting them to pay money is a little harder... getting them to pledge loyalty to you and ONLY buy your products even if something else is clearly better, is how you get to billions

It's not a money thing. You just have preferences. Even the guys on here who pretend they have no "preference" at all are lying, they certainly do. There's PC gamers on here that stay stanning anything related to Steam/PC gaming yet have the audacity to call people stans and act like they're above it. Lol.

Make no mistake about it, I'm a Playstation/Nintendo guy first and foremost because their franchises are more varied and fun to me. Now that Xbox has their games on Windows 10, I might never buy an Xbox console. Hell, the games out now don't interest me. I haven't touched Killer instinct, Gears, or Quantam Break on Windows 10 and by now they're pretty okay ports so there's that. I just don't care about those games. Also, it's just fun saying Larrybox. The "wars" and shyt are fun on here. I don't think it'd be fun if Meach or PS4 wasn't stanning Xbox so hard. meach and em brings a balance :laff:.
You don't have a job for christs sake. Enough said.

I can easily afford a Xbox or Wi. It's just not enough games I like from those systems

Xbox is just a perfect storm as to why I never owned one

I don't like 1st person shooters (Halo=Killzone)
I don't like racers (Forza=Gran Turismo)
I don't like mindless 3rd person shooters (Gears=The Order)

Xbox just don't make good games enough besides their core 3.

I want a Wi but their 3rd party and lack of mature games hurt them imo
I loved the hell out their core tho Zelda, Mario, & Metroid

I'm a true fanboy FUKK them other consoles. My last console other than a PS was Dreamcast.
