Xbox One sets sights on 400m sold, Xbox 360 aims for 100m (and why that's probably bad)

I think microsoft looked in the wrong direction to increase sales. Because if they had made a balling console with really amazing specs, ssd, awesome graphics. Even more expensive, a lot of pc gamer could have turned to console. Because frankly if you can have a console that is truly more powerful than your pc, that supports keyboard and mouse, how many of you would buy one? I would definitly ask myself the question.

I would never switch to console. the controls for shooters are just so clunky that they need an auto-aim system. thanks, but no thanks.

 

and they would never support keyboard and mouse. see, they make their money from the perifs, a separate controller is close to 50% profit.

Thats is a good point, but they can put a label on peripherals to get back a part of they money, no manufacture cost so its all win. I mean, really think about it, if you had the choice beetwen a 4k tv, with no latency and your pc at 1080p or 1440p, both with the same keyboard and mouse, one on a desk chair, the other on a couch, with equal performance on both, you really wont at least consider it?

This is 100% hypothetical but for me if console moved more this way they would attract a lot more people

I like building what I game on. also, a couch is great for watching something, but be honest here, when I'm playing competitively, I'm not about to sit at anything other than my desk. (so I'm close to my 20in screen and I can see everything, nothing missed on the sides.)

 

also, 4k would be great, but let's not lie to ourselves here. the consoles won't support 4k, and my computer will. hypothetical questions are just that, hypothetical.
