      Most people don’t have access to good internet, not because of price, but because of shitty infrastructure. Internet back in 2013 and ever current internet is far too unstable for always online.

      I've never owned a Playstation console in my entire life, so think twice before calling me a "Sony Pony". I'm just pointing out the fact that Don Mattrick is a total dumbass saying that they should buy their last generation console if they have no Internet. No, they should go to its competitor which would be the Sony PS4. Why get an Xbox 360 when you could get a PS4? So, yeah, Don Mattrick made a complete fool out of himself.

    • @Proclifo
      @Proclifo 10 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      bob fred The point is, the console shouldn't cripple itself to be unplayable just because it doesn't have an internet connection. It is pointless if you just want to play offline. I could come up with countless circumstances where you don't have Internet access. As long as you have electricity, you should be able to play on your console.

On top of the 360 having a headstart by roughly a year, the messy launch of the PS3 was a major shot on the foot. It's only around 2011, after major shifts in both Microsoft and Sony's strategies, that the PS3 began to catch up and eventually surpass the 360's sales.

    Its actually unbelievable the damage Xbox did to themselves in 2013. Even over a decade later, the Xbox brand has never recovered from the disasterous launch of the Xbox One. They had some great momentum during the 360 era, but failed to transition that into the Xbox One. To top it all off, you had tone-deaf game execs like Mattrick who couldn't care less about buring goodwill with their fanbase as long as their money is secured.

      Something I learned about console fanboyism, is no matter how badly a company screws something up, that person will defend their favorite brand no matter what. I know an Xbox fanboy, and he's the type of dude who says "Titanfall 1 is better than Titanfall 2" despite 2 being objectively better in pretty much everyway lol (Genuinely believe he was salty that Titanfall 2 was on the PS4) . As a kid I was fortunate to have a PS2, Gamecube, and Xbox and from then on I try to have most of the consoles when they release. I try to be open to most products on all 3 consoles and their choices, but the coverage that was going on with the one at the time was so horrendous, the One was the first time I openly skipped an Xbox console 😂 I've been enjoying the Series S though, and playing catch up.

This is someone who had his head up his ass ever since he thought the Kinect and multimedia for a GAMING ORIENTED BRAND was the future. He should know who truly uses the Xbox and it was gamers who happen to like complimentary media apps, but don't actually want it as the main driver.
