-Live wrote I'm gonna be honest. Xbox One is a mid to low teir PC-wise and everything about the console is weak.

AMD Jaguar 8-core is weak because all those cores compared to a FX chip which is about $80-$100 for a Quad core is weak. Also compared to the fact that the clock speed is 1.6Ghz just adds to it.

With all the GPU info we have on the XB1 the XB1's GPU is near a HD 7770 which is a low-teir card which is alright but not good.

2 HD Speakers can be bought for the PC for cheap. Hell MS will even allow Kinect 2.0 for purchase on PC.

All OS features can be replicated on PC and be better/perfected for free.

You can use a controller on PC and can make it work on all games (With the magic of Xpadder) and most likely the XB1 controller will easily work on the PC. Also, KB/M offers for better looking and such which can't be achieved on a controller.

I don't get where you got high-end PC from and you can easily build a PC with the amount your spending on a Xbox One with a game and XBL Gold that will be superior to it.

The Xbox One will still be a good console I just find it stupid that you even attempted to compare it to a console. The only value you will be getting is a Kinect which from a dev at id software said "The Kinect 2 is like a no button mouse with a bunch of input lag" whcih can tell you that the Kinect 2 will be just as bad as the Kinect 1. You can get the same if not better wireless chip for a PC for $60 or less.

That's all I'm saying.

Im not trying to compare a Pc to a console I am just trying to tell everyone about all the advantages of the Xbox One. There is no where in the post where I say Xbox is better or Pc is better...

You have some amazing points in this topic.
If I don't switch over to a PC gamer, then I will defiantly stay as a Xbox Gamer.
I've had Xbox ever since the first Xbox

I agree completely, the xbox one is basically a super console.

Dragify wrote 6. Here is basically how much everything costs.
- Graphics Card- $200
- 802.11n Wireless chip- $100
- 8 Core CPU- Minimum $160
- 500gb HD- $50
- Kinect worth $200
- Blu-Ray- $60
- DVR Built in $50
- That puts you way over $500 and that's not even everything, so you definitely get what you pay for and all of its advantages.

With all of this being said you don't even need a Tv, Pc/Laptop, or a Home Phone since your Xbox will do all of it. I haven't even scratched the surface of how great the Xbox One is and all the advantages of buying it are. I hope you enjoyed reading all of it and post a comment about your thoughts on it as well.

I had to create an account on here to highlight some of the blatant stupidity coming from people that have absolutely NO clue what they're talking about, for starters it doesn't even have a graphics card, the chip is built into the processor. I don't know why you think that DVR is a feature worth money seeing as it's entirely software based. I also can't believe that you're claiming that it does the job of a computer, it's a console not a PC you idiot.

Cost:
Processor (x8 @1.60 GHz) - $120 (Estimate)
Memory (8 GB DDR3) - $40
Wireless Adapter - $20 (I don't know what your thinking was)
Kinect - $100 (Exaggeration)
Hard Drive - $50
Optical Drive - $50
Other - $20 (Estimate for casing and such)

That comes to a total of $400 which is nowhere near your pricing, and that's granting that the Kinect sensor included is valued at that price (it won't be more than that), Sony has their sensor priced at $60, but generously doesn't force you to buy it seeing as nobody wants it, time to cover some of your other points.

1 - The console is in NO WAY a high end PC, it doesn't even have a dedicated graphics card, and the cloud processing thing is utter rubbish, On Live used cloud processing, remember how badly that failed?

2 - It's life span is irrelevant, because every console should have this kind of thing as standard, just because Xbox 360 had such a bad technical launch it doesn't mean that having a better one will be a good feature.

3 - Not a high end PC for the 3rd time, and Skype cannot be compared to a home phone, if anything it barely has the features of a mobile phone, it's a hassle to use in that way and I'm pretty sure that everyone with a games console has access to a phone, we haven't seen enough on Skype to make judgments yet. Sony introduced an internet browser into their system on launch, so Internet Explorer is irrelevant.

4 - The TV features are good as long as it doesn't interfere with anything else, it's nothing special seeing as most users don't need it, but I have no issue with it. There are no other benefits from media however.

5 - The Kinect is unnecessary and expensive, I don't want it and the same thing applies to most people out their, whether they're purchasing it or not.

I am purchasing neither console at release because I'm a PC gamer mainly, I'll probably purchase an Xbox One at some point for exclusives such as Halo, but for me that's all that it has going for it. If you're going to purchase a console use good justifications, whether you prefer the exclusives or are just used to the interface, I don't care, just be truthful and don't use crappy reasons that you pull out of your rear end.

Obviously you don't buy parts for Pcs because your estimates are amlost all wrong. The wireless chip itself is $100+ which you obviously have no clue of and Kinect is worth way more than maybe $100. Get your facts straight before posting. Thakyou


I think there is something **** up in your head. You obviously don't know how much PC parts cost either. You would have to be mentally ill to buy a wireless PCI card for over 100. The average card will cost no more then $40 but you can buy most for $20-30.

Yeah they still have a lot that you can pre-order but most big retailers are sold out of them.

I love how PS4 fanboys are always lurking around the XB1 forums, really lets us know which system is superior.
