Will there be another Xbox console after the Xbox One?

1. I have actually heard that. And I have heard people having regrets buying the PS4. I have seen both returned due to various reasons.

2. Just like the last console cycle we will see some parity. And things will move along. MS will sell plenty of the Xbox One and sales will exceed the 360 on a yearly basis. Does this console get as many overall sales? Who knows. And DX12 will effect
all hardware. If will help. That includes the One. The efficiencies here will allow some nice improvements. So this power difference point will be useless for the most part.

3. Depends. I have a PS4. And the majority of what I am looking to play can be had on the One. Including Crackdown, Quantum Break, Halo, Gears, etc. Sure, I do have a few PS4 games I am looking forward to but they are mostly out a ways. Holiday 2016
and beyond. But I think in the long run MOST people are not fans of any one console. And we will see plenty have both just like last cycle. And that will mean that as the PS 4 peaks those people will then start considering the One for all the games they
missed for various reasons. And the cross PC play. Then again, many buy consoles to play games. And a lot of those people do not PC game or put the money into the hardware that will do any better compared to these consoles. Some do however.

4. The horrible reveal is way over. Not sure why anyone would bring that up know. Of course I admit you will find those less knowledgeable and disconnected people that will still think the One requires an internet connection. I know one such person.
She purchased a PS4 and then realized how much it needed the internet as well. Game updates/patches to fix issues and other things.

Couple of things that are important to the Xbox brand. First is that sales for this console stay ahead of the 360 lifetime to date. So if the One has sold more than the 360 during the same period of its life it is actually doing well. Also, how will sales
be in the long run. This goes with the previous. IF they stay ahead of 360 then you would expect overall for it to do better. Not to mention the power of popular IP. Sure, we want new. But the thing is things like UC: Collection, Halo: MCC, Black Ops
3, Gears Ultimate, Forza, UC4, and other popular series are going to sell. Many people want those and sales will show that those games will outsell the new IP for the most part. So they need to be there along with the new IP.

Another thing is that MS is pushing for the unified system. It was obviously coming and I and others had mentioned it before. But MS wants you to be able to use your PC, One, Windows Tablet (running Windows 10), and Windows Phone as a complete ecosystem.
We will see this pushed more and more. And I could easily see them taking the $$ lose to get these out there. This holiday should see some great sales. You may ask yourself why. Reason is they want to sell you content. Games, movies, music. And the
best way to do that is to have devices in your hands. Sell you games that will work on your One, PC, tablet, etc. Or the streaming from the One to those devices. Although cross buy is where they will pull many in due to the variables that can make streaming
tough for many.

I will say that BC is big for many I have talked with. Parents with teenagers who have a huge 360 collection. Adults with huge 360 collections. It just means they can play some of those with their family/friends on the one if made BC. Many want the COD
games and things like that. But it will help sales.

But the Xbox brand will prevail. MS has to know they benefitted during the 360 cycle from the high $$ of the PS3 early. And the $$ advantage the 360 carried. Some of those people wanted PS3 but they went 360. And those people will or have moved back
to PS. MS will work on establishing the ecosystem further. And that will help the next console even more.

Halo 4

the new xbox slim was the new console there wont be another xbox coming out for atleast 4 years

 

Transfer one account to another

Actually you can genious pay attention to the last line:

Can I transfer content from one Xbox LIVE account to another?

No. Content licenses are stored in the Xbox 360 console rather than in the Xbox LIVE account.

To enable someone else's Xbox LIVE account to use your content licenses, you must download your Xbox LIVE profile and then transfer your content licenses to that person's Xbox 360 console.

•To download your Xbox LIVE profile to a different Xbox 360 console, see Download, move, or delete your Xbox LIVE profile.

•To transfer a content license from one Xbox 360 console to another, see Can I transfer a content license from one Xbox 360 console to another?

After you've downloaded your Xbox LIVE profile and transferred your content licenses to another Xbox 360 console, the content can be used by all the profiles on that console.

 

Of course there will be another xbox console and Ps5...probably in 2023 or something like that. It's silly to think otherwise. There's money to be made, new technology to be utilized, games will continue to stretch the limits, etc.

 

LOL........ threads of the future will include:

-

I want my X1 games backward compatible with the new Xbox.

-

 

Doubt it, in 2017 the entire world loses power ( I love Space ), I wont spoil it but yea.

That's why I don't see there being another console because the console doesn't do any of those things.

Console hardware is sold at a lose in order to distribute games which works in a disc era but as we go digital it isn't necessary. Tech is years behind even when a new console is launched both with hardware and game graphics.

Consoles have always been a cheap, simple way to game but people wanted more features and by doing so have given the console more competition that does it better.

If MS's Win 10 vision comes true then there won't be a need for one. It's the people that don't understand that their console is simply a pre-built, non-upgradable, mini-tower PC that will have an issue with this.

As soon as the Xbox store launches in Win 10 then the One just got a whole bunch of competition that looks just like console and they do it better.

No idea what kind of hardware it'll be, but there will be another Xbox

There's a bit in the following link, about how Phil Spencer is investing in the long term future for the brand

Not really competition when all the money is going to the same company

 

I heard ms wanted to buy Nvida and i reckon if they did that then they could have a more expensive gpu in the next xbox with out paying the extra to Nvida

 

They've no chance of buying Nvidia.

I could see them putting in a bid for AMD since they already use them in the Xbox One.

 

I think it was AMD tbh i dunno why i said Nvida

 

Personally I think there will be at least one more gen if not more but consoles will evolve to fit the current (at the time) landscape. Until world wide internet speeds are at a level to stream huge games without any issues I can't see consoles disappearing
completely.

With digital taking over physical media it could/will lead to consoles no longer requiring expensive Blu-Ray drives. This will allow more money to be spent on CPU/GPU and allow for a smaller device.

Maybe we'll see Xbox as a service via Windows 10 and as a piece of hardware. If you are in a location that has access to fast and reliable internet you can just sign up to Xbox and stream games via an app. If not you buy the Xbox console and purchase games
as we do now.

End of the day if there is a want for something then someone will provide and right now people want consoles.

 

Yeah, I think at some point we will cross a barrier between broadband speed and hardware price - where we will no longer have consoles that play physical or even digitally complete media. Instead, everything will be streamed to us and ran on servers. The
competing companies will have compete against faster servers that can product higher quality games and their bandwidth capabilities and deals with various service providers to increase qos delivery. At some point, we will just stream everything and since consumer
hardware and their price will no longer be the issue - the data centers will upgrade at a likely faster generational rate - which will equate to faster advancements. Downsides being all that come with not having physical media, internet quality of various
users, etc - but IT WILL come to that eventually.

 

I believe as a few have said there will come a time when it will be a case of streaming games, games that run straight off of servers etc but I still think that's a bit too far off yet.

So I do believe there will be an Xbox Two/PlayStation 5! I also believe we will see these consoles quite a bit before Microsoft's and Sony's claims that these current consoles will last around 10 years. I believe we will see the next next gen in around 4-5
years tops.
