There is 1 ad, usually at the bottom right slot. I remember because there was an Old Spice ad, and I usually enjoy those commercials so I just sat and watched it lol. The rest are usually just game notifications such as Double XP or Half off sales

6 of 9 tiles on the home screen are ads:

MS are rumored to still be tweaking the hardware to get more power. The rumors of heat issues are still rampant, hope they get to tweaking that issue as well.

MS don't seem to know whats going on with their system and policies. The positive is that the system isn't out yet, so they can do and say whatever they want about the X-1, which is pretty much what they've been doing.

Am I the only one who isn't hyped for Titanfall? Game looked pretty boring to me... basically Warhawk with mechs. But I'm not huge on online mulitplayer to begin with, so pretty much all games that are online-only seem boring to me. :P

Nothing about the game impresses me. $60 for an online multiplayer game is awful but gamers are blinded by that fact. Should be $40 and it's multiplatform anyway and its more than likely coming to PS4 a year later or so it should be a system seller if it on other platforms. PC/360.

Halo? One game should never be a reason a console will be successful, the irony of it is "Halo" "Halo2" on Xbox..... 25million sold. PSP never had a single killer app and out sold it by 3x.
 
They are right in saying Halo will drive a lot of the sales. If it weren't for Halo I'd be getting a PS4 on launch.

Halo is same thing each game. I think a lot of people are over it.

I don't think so.

And honestly, a lot of the people dissatisfied with halo right now are upset because it isn't the same thing each game. There's little tweaks each time.

Sure, its always a Sci-Fi fps, and its always in the same universe, and because of that the MP is very same-y game to game, but that's kinda what you get with a Sci-Fi shooter series no?
 
To me, Power isn't everything when it comes to consoles, it is the games themselves (You might say that more power will equal great games but most of my favourite games are from 6th gen or below as they are just fun :)) and like all consoles at launch nowadays, only 1 game interests me (Forza 5 for the Xbox One) :grumpy:, so I'll wait to see if Xbox One can deliver some fun games that would be worth buying 👍.

I'm thinking Microsoft will pay some game critics to say the Xbox One is good :lol:.
 
Unless these "playground arguments" are happening among those with prospects in advertising, I can't see anyone using that as a positive unless they're being facetious.

And glancing over it it sounds no different than the advertisements already on the 360.

I can't help but ask who wants a console "with advertising in mind"?

I was taking the piss. Point being, this is the kind of thing that was best left unsaid. Does anyone actually like advertisements? Nobody does, apart from those who profit from them. It's just another failed attempt to spin a negative story as a positive.

Didn't you hear? With the 360, they were added to the system late. The xbone was designed with advertisements in mind. Great news.
 
OMG@! No one in this thread claims he's going to buy Xbox One. I mean no wonder since it's more expensive than ps4 who would :crazy:

You know, you say this and I said what I did but we're both forgetting one crucial aspect: IGN.

Which means, yeah, you're right, someone will say it. Eventually. :lol:

True, but even so. I don't know... I hate advertisements as much as the next guy - doubly so on a game console of all things - but I'm not as bothered by it considering it's already there and annoys me.

Was the PS4 announced yet?

Actually, quite a few people are buying one.

Mitch Dyer on why the Xbox one is better: "We have Halo. You don't even have Halo commercials. Ps4 sux."

Was the PS4 announced yet?

That's crazy talk. Ps4 won't be announced until he opens the box.
