Xbox One

Is a 360 even worth buying for the 5 shmup and 5 RPG exclusives (and the handful of games where it is slightly better than a PS3)?

I would say more than a handful of multiplats are better. There are a few good fps exclusives if tou enjoy them.

Maybe, but i actually want a 360 to play all the Gears of War games and Halo 3/4/Reach actually, i know im crazy, but im playing the single player campaigns only.

Those games are fun, why would you be crazy? Online can be fun for a bit too. Especially the horde/survival cooperative mode with friends.

I think the Xbox One is cool. I understand it's goals but it isn't for me. I have a huge backlog for the 360 and I kinda stated awhile back that I'm done buy stuff to enjoy what I got.

My ONLY concern has nothing to do with the console per se, but in the ability that you can't bring over your XBLA titles and DLC (though not confirmed on the DLC but I assume).
What if for example I get a hold of an Xbox 360 down the road and I want to transfer my content to its hard drive? Will it allow me to do so? I've done it before when I went from the original Xbox 360 to the S model. I transferred the content with the cable and had to sign on to transfer the licenses. With XBLA content being irrelevant next gen what can I do to protect the licenses? Hope to god the console and/or the hard drive don't burn?

people's reactions in this thread are about 100X more entertaining than that press conference.

Just chill, wait to see the launch lineup and what the final word is on used/online/drm questions and then critique the final product. All this speculation and posturing is just silly and fruitless.

You just like it because Korpi just explained you almost exactly except for a couple of years and your disinterest in modern sports games. Lol

Well did he explain me or did your "Sony fanboy" comment describe me? I am confused.

I play modern sports games. I also enjoy FPSs. I also have a ton of shmups for the 360 and a fair number of RPGs and other genres not discussed at the presser today. I don't own or have interest in a Kinect.

My 3 year old likes to play Halo.

Right now I am spending most of my time with Pinball Arcade on the Vita and Torchlight 2 on the PC.

I am white, though.

Not to be a douche or anything, but seriously, you'd have to be a complete moron to waste money on this.

The world is full of morons. So based on that, it should sell like hotcakes...

Didn't mention them for a reason. FPS's don't interest me enough to get a large number of them. Factor in hardware issues and gimped games once servers are shut down and I'm having a hard time convincing myself that I should get one, despite owning 5 games for it already.

Cave!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, the shmups are making me want to go for it, but not even all of them came over here, and there's no way I'm buying a 360 only for the shmups. I'd rather spend the cash and pick up some more Saturn and DC shmups.

Given that Korpi said, "Too bad I'm not any of those," I assume Korpi is a she?

Have you guys heard about this already?

Now it's doubly official. Starting now, If I actually meet someone who's genuinely enthusiastic about this thing (as opposed to sarcastically supporting it for trolling purposes), I'm going to automatically deduct 100 IQ points. Not to be a douche or anything, but seriously, you'd have to be a complete moron to waste money on this.

Really, and you aren't being ridiculous and trollish right now? Please don't deduct my iq points. I am pretty sure I will buy this and a PS4 sometime in the next year or so.

The moron

Retrodude I think I have learned in the past month or so that any opinion you spout about games is pretty much worthless.

That's what us over-educated scrawny white guys do best.
