There's no way. It literally cannot be a bigger leap compared to 4th to 5th gen or 5th to 6th gen. Or even 6th to 7th or 3rd to 4th. Video game console generation powers jumps have done nothing but get smaller in the past 25 years. How on earth is that going to change now?
@VenomousAlbino Sony has their own smart delivery equivalent that Miles Morales uses. The real reason is just so they can get you to pay $70 across both platforms as opposed to just buying the last-gen version for $60. This could mean that the next-gen verison will be a bigger upgrade (Like how 2k had a much bigger upgrade for 2k which doesn't have a free upgrade than EA had for Madden which does have a free upgrade) or it could just be Sony being greedy. We don'tknow yet.
@graysoncharles issue with that is that a lot of stores are not doing in store purchases of the Series X and ps5 bc of the pandemic, so there would be no way or very few ways to get one for launch day if they did this
@mousieone were you not into Mario or Splatoon either? π€¨ Yeah the only exclusive there that isn't timed is probably Gears Tactics but still I mean if you enjoy all that stuff, power to you I guess. I still find it odd you enjoy Microsoft's 2020 better than Nintendo's 2017 but at least you're respectful about it.
@KelticDevil I guess you can't really take criticism of your own plastic box. I own an Xbox One X and I was very disappointed with Microsoft's extreme lack of exclusives. I loved both the original Xbox and the Xbox 360. I'm more of a Nintendo fan Boy than Sony anyways, but I can't deny the lack of exclusives. I mean Xbox Series X is looking to be the first ever console to launch without an exclusive at all. That's kinda sad.
@Z3u5000 it doesn't work on a pc with the specs of an Xbone tho. It's pretty demanding. Almost like even on PC you don't have to hold back to super old cpus and gpus if you don't want to π€
As someone who didn't like the Xbox One very much, not bad, but could've been better. Everwilds, Avowed and Fable all have potential but no gameplay was shown. Medium looks really cool but was it a timed exclusive? Anyways I gave it a C. It does seem like Microsoft is trying to improve somewhat from the abysmal Xbox One exclusive line-up.
@tatsumi To prove your point, Xbox 360 was by far the best selling Xbox in Japan, thanks to actually getting some pretty good exclusive JRPGs on there.
@Tharsman the Wii U sold decent at first actually. Well for the first two months or so anyway lol. I mean in a way I guess you could say I'm contributing to it since I bought a Switch Day 1. But I knew Nintendo would have the exclusives to back it up eventually. Also admittedly Game Pass is a good deal on the Xbox one, but I don't think the Xbox One will really have much of a legacy like I've been saying. I just hope the Series X has a better exclusive line-up. Even if we have to wait a year for it to start getting "true" exclusives
@Tharsman Well yeah of course hardcore Nintendo fans are going to buy the system no matter what. Also I realize that consoles can sell without exclusives nowadays. That doesn't mean that I like it though. You never really answered my main point. Is anybody really going to remember or care about the Xbox One 20 years from now?
@Tharsman Mario Odyssey isn't a good game? Smash Ultimate isn't a good game? Animal Crossing New Horizons isn't a good game? Splatoon 2 isn't a good game? Super Mario Maker 2 isn't a good game? Fire Emblem Three Houses isn't a good game? Oh wait maybe you just need to expand your horizons if you think BotW and Mario Kart 8 are the only good games on the Switch.
When people look back on the Xbox One, none of these "consumer friendly moves" are going to matter. All people are going to see is a severe lack of any good exclusives.
@BlueOcean Sony's not even been that bad about it really? Last of Us remastered was $50. It was a pretty big graphical upgrade and it includes all the dlc not to mention it only came out a year after release. The Uncharted Collection was a big graphical upgrade and a steal for the price it was at since you get 3 games. God of War 3 remastered was kind of bad I'll give you that one. Still not horrible at $40 will all the DLC.
@Steel76 Game graphics are going to increase a lot next gen to the point where that Pc won't be able to run next gen games at 60 fps without decreasing the graphics a lot

@RedShirtRod unless you're interested in a budget console in which case it's price (Xbox Series S) vs. Quality (ps5 digital)

Why did they specify the third party thing? With Xbox you can just assume it'll just be third party titles π
