The ONE

The Xbox One has recently been price-dropped and bundled with Titanfall; meaning it is now better than ever to go get an Xbox One, Right? The One is still limited by its small library of Next Gen Titles and its lack of backward compatibility; truthfully for gaming purposes, i have spent much more time on my 360 over the last few months, only using the One for apps like Netflix, ESPN or the free Xbox Fitness. While the One has a few solid titles for fans of shooters(Call Of Duty:Ghosts, BattleField 4, Titanfall), racing(Forza 5) or sports games(FIFA 14, Madden 25, NBA 2k14); many of the Ones titles are also available for the 360 with negligible game-play differences and/or a few Xbox One bonuses or minor graphical improvements(example: NBA 2k14 has both; with extra cut-scenes and some graphical improvements that are only noticeable on an HDTV with a refresh rate of 60hz). The reduced price tag is nice for those who feel like picking up a One, but until it gets more serious Next-Gen titles and exclusives like Dead Rising 3, it will still feel like a shinier 360s(with a handful of new features and a new UI), and not a new eighth generation console. Feel like i got something wrong? Have an opinion that disagrees with mine? Have a game or System you want me to talk about? Let me know! (it would be nice to know i'm not just typing for no reason)
