New XBox One must become far more powerful...

Yah, and how is Sega's console doing today? Sega changed to much to fast.

I also had an expansion pack with my Nintendo 64. Remind me how well they sold as well? That is right, The 64 was crushed in sales and games.

Look, I am not naive as to how things work. They keep the architecture the same But optimize each part, make it smaller etc. But the architecture is the same. When you look up say the Xbox 360 & it's spec's. The E is the same as the old Arcade.

But literally make a new version and bump everything up? Not happening. Then what stops S*ny from doing the same?

Don't misunderstand me here. I would jump all over a Xbox One 2.0. I would be the 1st to pre order it. My worry is the rest of the Day One, early adopters. As well as the rest of the community. I do not want Xbox to go way of Sega

:)

 

Microsoft wants your PS3?

Keep your PS3 and buy a PS4 instead after all it costs $100 less than the Xbox One and its far more powerful.

 

Rumor:Xbox 720 and Wii U will be Similer

I can't believe I wasted my time in reading such a bogus "article". Ah, the problem with the Internets, make up something and spew it enough until it becomes "fact". The "article" even reads on it's own as counter;

[quote user="Lame Article"]

If you compare 7th and 8th generation games, there is only a slight difference. Nintendo's new console is maybe 3 times more powerful than the PS3 while the Xbox 720 will be 16 times more powerful. Even though the Xbox 720 is much more powerful, the Graphics
and gameplay will essentially be the same.

Even under the bogus Rumor 16 times more powerful is the same as 3 times more powerful?! What?! That doesn't make any sense?

 

In 2020, for the 9th generation.

For a bigger HDD,it might happen but since i can plug "every" external HHD ,it doesn't matter.

 

I think current X1 owners are missing the point here. If you want 2B #1 in sales, service, and also have the potiential to go beyond current requirments. You have to revamp the system. For remaining stagnet in this age isn't an option.

@GG I still have, and use my Sega TOWER OF POWER which consists of a Mega CD topped with a Model 1 Genesis and crowned with 32 X. When I add the gameshark, then Sonic and Nuckles, and finally Sonic 3. It takes up more verticle space than a 20 inch color
console. And still to this day works, and looks like New. (Knock on wood) Been collecting for it for decades.

 

all i see are fanboys and game "journalist" putting out click bait that is creating an artificial desire "to have the best", and it is turning console gaming into a cesspool of armchair techies calling themselves "gamers". yes the PS4 is more powerful, but
both are still weak PC's from a few years ago.

MS has been bending backwards to get back on solid ground, and that has earned them the trust 10+ million customers, do people honestly think that they are going to redesign the X1 with better hardware and risk the backlash? they're still recovering from
before the console even launched, doing a major change like that would be brand suicide.

adding an attachment to give it boost? doubtful, there is not an expansion slot and only 3 USB ports (which i'm using all 3 currently), and then you'll still be alienating a lot of gamers.

IF it became that much of issue, i could see them making the next Xbox at the 7-8 year mark instead of 10, but i doubt they would do that because that would give Sony plenty of extra time to make an even more powerful console.(and i guess in hindsight, did
Sony even make a statement on the longevity of the PS4?)

at the end of the day, i continue to believe what i've always believed, games sell consoles, not the other way around, games this gen have already proven that these consoles can put out really nice graphics, and they will only improve over the years, there
is no need for a redesign.

 

Thank you Zero for reinforcing what I said. There is no way that would happen. This isn't PC this is the home console.

 

Just a reminder: Console comparisons are still a no go, even if it's hard to resist. ;-)

Thank you in advance.

 

Hello everyone

If an Xbox One slim is going to be made, it will follow the same exact template as the Xbox 360 slim. Same performance, more effecient hardware.

Have a nice day or afternoon or night everyone

 

All things considered at the end of the day. M is going to have to do something(s) in order for me to purchase an X1.

1) No less than 1TB of free space standard. So 1.5TB if dedicated space is needed for M. w/user upgradable internal HDD.

2) Fully Backwards compatable to THE console of the DECADE. The Xbox 360. - B4 people start posting. 'Can't.' - Remember. Can't never could do anything!

3) Redesign that Behemoth.

4) A winning ticket where Me and (I) alone have a chance at winning a redesigned X1 and some AAA games for it.

If option 4 isn't within reason - then forget reasoning it out and just do it anyway!

 

Hello "ElectroFlying"

I would love to have Backwards compatibility on my Xbox One, because I would use it a lot more than I do now if that were the case.

At the moment, I have the following games...

(1) Forza Motorsport 5

(2) Sunset Overdrive

(3) Destiny

(4) Skylanders Trap Team

(5) Killer Instinct Season 2 (Ultra Edition)

and the only reason that I even turn on my Xbox One is to play Destiny and Killer Instinct Season 2.

With that being said, Microsoft would have to put A LOT of effort on making Xbox 360 games compatible with the Xbox One to make sure they work properly.

Have a nice day or afternoon or night "ElectroFlying"

 

Lot of effort to me sounds a lot like a Can't or won't even try approach to problem solving.

Oh well.

You have a nice day, afternoon or night as well Lei Fang.

 

The thing is that the One isn't just a console.

You can play games on it. Purchases movies to watch and music to listen to. You can make voice and video calls. You can browse the internet. You can do your office work on it.

There really is very little that a PC can do that the Xbox One can't.

Consoles I think have reached an evolution point. They are a hairs breadth away from being small form media PCs. Hell the jump has already made with early versions of the PS3 which could run linux.

I don't think we are that far away from modular consoles. Could we see something like Google's Project Ara (www.telegraph.co.uk/.../Google-launches-build-your-own-mobile-phone-trial.html)
but on a larger scale.

 

Hello "ElectroFlying"

Backwards Compatibility is extremely time consuming to get right, so I highly doubt that it will ever happend.

Have a nice day or afternoon or night "ElectroFlying"

 

My point about not being a PC (though the One and the other console are pretty much mid tier PC's) is that consumers generally purchase home console so they do not have to worry about consistently swapping out parts. Granted, some PC gamers pick up home
consoles just for exclusives and then hop back on their PC rigs.

Hey Electro, that is a crazy list. Especially #4. Seeing as you have a Xbox 360 S right now, why do you want backwards compatibility? For me (to each their own) part of the nostalgic factor is actually enjoying (insert classic game here) on my original
Xbox or Xbox 360.

I do understand the swappaple HDD
