Obviously you don’t get round much it’s just the same in PS4 articles

"Obviously you don’t get round much it’s just the same in PS4 articles"

What?

It's mainly because of who it is. In Sony threads, he is known to cause needless friction and people don't forget.

OT: Anyway, this is one of the big games I'm looking forward to this year. I'll be much happier with a proper, full reveal though!

Are you new here? Kribwalker is a known Xbox troll, I thought everyone knew this.

yep.

@rice, i thought Krib doesnt have an xbox but instead plays the xbox games on PC? Does that still make him an xbox troll or would he be a PC troll?

edit: Thanks razz... good to know.

@darthv72

Uh....Kribwalker has an Xbox One. lol....no idea where you got that idea.

So long as it's not generic, it's fine I guess. At least going by reviews that within a course of 7 months go from loving generic open world games, to thinking that that they offer no innovation. Less if you include September releases.

Anyhow, nothing wrong with open world. Plus, it's a leak, and may not even be true, or it may be more along the lines of God of Wars open world. A full open world game doesn't seem like it would fit in the GeOW universe, if all other things remain true to the core of the design of the series.

Its because its an Xbox game. Fanboys from other consoles do the down voting

People just seem to hate anything Xbox. I've been seeing it for a while. I don't really like with Microsoft has done with the one, but I really do enjoy gears of war.

Honestly I'm not a fan of most open world games most times it tears down story and creates needless padding to increase the game length.

@Razzer

Many of us Xbox fans enjoy PS4 games, and even wish we had stronger exclusive titles but let's be real the real haters of PC, Xbox, and Nintendo are arrogant Sony fans.

guilty

"let's be real the real haters of PC, Xbox, and Nintendo are arrogant Sony fans."

Probably you are just hateful what Sony does.. Look around and use twitter if you have one.. Xbox fans freaked out when QB got a PC release and they went bat shit crazy when Xbox games were announced that it will get PC release.. Also when COD marketing rights went to PS , Xbox fans were very vocal. So let's be real here Xbox fans ain't better either.. PC fans they always need to justify themselves why PC is better but that makes no sense... I don't know any Nintendo fans so I don't know how they behave...

It is Kribwalker.

@343_Guilty_Spark

You are seriously going to pretend there are no Sony haters here? You see what you want to see. Period.

Or more the fact gears has not been good since the 360 days and it is a massively mediocre franchise.

SJW Brown / Black Shirts in full force in general. As Jonathan Pie labelled them "Generation Tw@t"

Still sounds good

Possible - Daily star - should be enough.

Look at the last few releases from ms, I wouldn't be setting my expectations too high.

Lol 60 fps on X1S

it’s a lot more then 5% of the install base that has the OneX, but regardless, i’m one of the ones that has a OneX so 4k60 for me if that’s what it is

I read the comment with some hurt going into the tone. Don't know why the s had to be brought up. There are more s and ps4 slims than pros and x. Everyone knows that, why bring it up when they are talking about 4k? should automatically exclude base consoles. I guess if i only had one console and the console wasn't getting optimized for 4k or 4k/60fps on exclusives then I'd be upset about it like how that comment came off as.

L7CHAPEL - This whole article is speculation, but let's run with it as fact. The title says xbox one which is a lie or hyperbole at best.

Krib - I like how you go nuts over rumours and leaks, wait until you get an official before you explode with excitement.

“i’m one of the ones that has a OneX so 4k60 for me if that’s what it is”

So me saying if that is what it is i’ll be 4k/60fps is exploding with excitement? lol. wait for an announcement? Isn’t that what me saying “if it is” is pretty much saying?

L7CHAPEL - It was a piss take at the title, no mention of one x - if it runs like that on x what will it be on s?

Yes I'm a fanboy and proud of it. ms gives such slim pickings when it comes to innovation and game design - I know I've backed the right horse.

That's all I care about - games, and ms still has a lot to prove. Even after being in the industry as long as it has and making games as long as they have.

They are practically indefensible - yet their customers are so loyal to the point of being deaf to any shortcomings ms likes to brush aside.

@xx-toddlermanchild-xx so you are proud to be a toxic shit head? Says a lot about you that you get so proud of others work. Unless you personally helped develop the PS4 and or its exclusives what the sweet fuck do you have to be proud of? That you wage some childish war about who has the better plastic box

its quite simple

Xbox one S - 1080p native, 60fps (upscaled to 4K using either tv tech, or xbox one s)

Xbox one X - Native 4K 60fps

Or they are people who realize 60fps and 4K are not what makes an amazing game and is only embellishments on a cake?

@Razzer

Open up Windows 10, hit the Windows key, and there's a nice big X subtitled XBOX.

"Gears 5: Exclusively on Xbox One & Windows 10"

Those are platforms. Not services. So is it not a part of Xbox Game Pass, or a Xbox Play Anywhere title, or a Xbox Studios Game and not using Xbox live? I even went out of my way to say 'KINDA' to emphasis that MS has been using the Xbox brand for their PC gaming far more than back when they used to refer to it separately with Games for Windows, Windows Live and of course them recently changing Microsoft Game Studios to Xbox Game Studios so in terms of gaming their brand on PC leans far more towards being called Xbox than PC or Windows these days.

I only tend to notice an objection to this from people that define the Xbox brand purely as a console and MS obviously does not hold that same view when we see how their branding habits.

Windows 10 PC and NOT simply PC. Plus, PC versions are just ports. Xbox IS and will remain the main platform.

There´s a reason Phil Spencer revolutionized when he renamed the legendary Microsoft Game Studios (Since 1994) to XBOX Game Studios! To show the strenght of the brand for both gamers and gaming industry! XBOX is and will continue to be Microsoft´s main bussiness in gaming for years to come!

@TekoIie

"Open up Windows 10, hit the Windows key, and there's a nice big X subtitled XBOX. "

And? The article calls it an "Xbox One Exclusive". Xbox One is a console. Hell, CaptainCook explicitly said "Xbox consoles". This isn't about a damn app called "xbox" on Windows 10. lol...come on. That app isn't the game. It hooks into Xbox Live and shows friends, achievements, etc. That app doesn't transform a PC into an Xbox console. lol...you are really reaching.

"Those are platforms. Not services....."

Which is exactly what is being referred to when discussing exclusives. MS can change names and marketing all they want. What does that have to do with the definition of the word "exclusive"? Xbox Studios. Windows Live. Xbox Live. Your point? Nothing you said changes anything with regards to Gears 5 NOT being Xbox One Exclusive. Not "kinda" anything. It simply is not.

"I only tend to notice an objection to this from people that define the Xbox brand purely as a console and MS obviously does not hold that same view when we see how their branding habits."

Not true. I can't count the number of times lists of PS4 exclusives in articles or post by users was rightfully corrected because the list had PC games as well. On numerous occassions it has been pointed out that Persona 5 is not a PS4 exclusive since it is also on PS3. This is a COMMON focus of discussion on this site and it includes both PS and Xbox consoles

@Obscure_Observer

"Windows 10 PC and NOT simply PC. Plus, PC versions are just ports. Xbox IS and will remain the main platform. "

lol....a port from PC hardware to other PC hardware. What exactly is your point? Nothing you said makes the game an "Xbox One exclusive" as stated in the article.

"XBOX is and will continue to be Microsoft´s main bussiness in gaming for years to come!"

You are talking about the brand. An image and a label. This is about Gears 5 exclusivity. Get on topic or just stop posting.

@Razzer

"That app doesn't transform a PC into an Xbox console. lol...you are really reaching."

Where did I say it did? Show me please because I happen to remember correcting you once and saying SERVICES. Read my comment correctly if you're going to bother to quote it

"This is a COMMON focus of discussion on this site and it includes both PS and Xbox consoles"

95% of which is by fanboys. Why should I care what fanboys think? Is your entire overreaction to my comment based entirely on what fanboys think? I don't think it's even worth conversing with someone if that's what their standards are based on.

"Where did I say it did? Show me please because I happen to remember correcting you once and saying SERVICES. Read my comment correctly if you're going to bother to quote it "

Ok.

"Open up Windows 10, hit the Windows key, and there's a nice big X subtitled XBOX. "

That was your response to "A PC is not an Xbox console." It was a stupid argument. You didn't correct me on anything. You are simply trying to make this into something it is not so you can say Gears 5 is "kinda" exclusive.

@Razzer

"That was your response to "A PC is not an Xbox console." It was a stupid argument. "

So you think that I'm trying to say the PC is an Xbox console because of an app when I specifically said in my original comment the word 'SERVICES'? You're reaching when I'm telling you I was talking about services and not platforms and then telling me that I was actually talking about platforms. You misinterpreted what I said and jumped to conclusions and I'm afraid your conclusion was downright stupid. You can't just spin what I said into what you want me to say and expect me to defend it. At this point you're arguing because you want to and not because you have any real substantive disagreement.

"You didn't correct me on anything. You are simply trying to make this into something it is not so you can say Gears 5 is "kinda" exclusive."

Nope. Again you're being deliberately argumentative over me saying that MS has rebranded just about everything they have to Xbox so the term is no longer purely defined by the console and that their focus is toward the service across (currently) two platforms.

Your whole disagreement can be summarized as "Actually the platforms are Xbox One and Windows 10" when I never suggested otherwise. I'd say the same for a game like Bloodborne because it's available on PS Now so it's still kinda exclusive because it's played through Sony's services, but at the end of the day still playable through a PC. Are you going to throw a hissy fit over me saying that as well now? Are you going to respond with "But the fanboys say this!" and make me adhere to such pathetic standards?

Move on dude because I'm not going to defend the position you want to twist my words into.

"So you think that I'm trying to say the PC is an Xbox console because of an app when I specifically said in my original comment the word 'SERVICES'? "

The "service" you refer to on Windows 10 is nothing but the damn app. You made that clear in the very next post. If that app is your position then your argument is absolute shit and you know it. That's why you are backtracking.

And you should quote yourself correctly. In your initial post you said "service", not "services".

"You're reaching when I'm telling you I was talking about services and not platforms..."

No....you were talking about a single app, not "services". That app is what you referenced as a "service" and it has nothing to do with anything. And you somehow tried to use that to extend the exclusivity of Gears 5 from Xbox, the console, to Xbox, the app. Stop pretending you didn't. Your words above are QUITE clear.

"Open up Windows 10, hit the Windows key, and there's a nice big X subtitled XBOX. "

"You misinterpreted what I said and jumped to conclusion..."

No....you got caught spewing bullshit and you don't like it.

"Nope. Again you're being deliberately argumentative over me saying that MS has rebranded just about everything they have to Xbox so the term is no longer purely defined by the console and that their focus is toward the service across (currently) two platforms. "

Overall, I agree with the fact that the brand "Xbox" is becoming bigger than the console, but trying to use this in a bullshit attempt to say Gears 5 is "kinda" exclusive to Xbox One is ridiculous and you know it. Gears 5 will be available for Windows 10. There is no Xbox One exclusivity. Fact.

""Actually the platforms are Xbox One and Windows 10" when I never suggested otherwise."

"Open up Windows 10, hit the Windows key, and there's a nice big X subtitled XBOX. "

I will keep posting that until you get it.

"I'd say the same for a game like Bloodborne because it's available on PS Now so it's still kinda exclusive because it's played through Sony's services, but at the end of the day still playable through a PC. Are you going to throw a hissy fit over me saying that as well now? Are you going to respond with "But the fanboys say this!" and make me adhere to such pathetic standards? "

lol....you just called Kribwalker a fanboy because he has made that argument plenty of times about PS Now.

Does streaming negate exclusivity? Maybe. I can see that argument being made. Does that change the fact that Gears 5 is not an Xbox One exclusive? Nope. You still lose.

@Razzer

"The "service" you refer to on Windows 10 is nothing but the damn app. You made that clear in the very next post."

You seriously need to learn to read because Xbox Live, Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Play Anywhere is a bit more than just an app. So you've flat out denied that I mention those in my second comment now. You're just rushing to argue and not actually reading my comments. Just stop dude.

"And you should quote yourself correctly. In your initial post you said "service", not "services".

That's grasping at straws. If you want to interpret me so literally then I shall do so for you when you said said that Gears 5 was a PC but it it's actually a Windows 10 game. Brilliant defence now that you're saying I can download and play Gears 5 for Mac and Linux. This is how blatant it's become with you reaching with your interpretation of my comment to save face now? What a joke.

"There is no Xbox One exclusivity. Fact."

Actually I think you'll find there is. Halo 5: Gaurdians is not available on PC. So I guess you've been caught again 'spewing bullshit and you don't like it.' If you want to reach with your interpretation of comments I will do so too babe.

"lol....you just called Kribwalker a fanboy because he has made that argument plenty of times about PS Now."

No I'm going by my standards. Is that too difficult to comprehend? Is it too difficult your brain to argue against an individual that you have to try and lump them in with other people to try and make them defend someome else when they really dont give a shit a out them? Aaaaw you are cute aren't you with your little groupthink mentality.

"Does that change the fact that Gears 5 is not an Xbox One exclusive? Nope. You still lose"

No I agree with that so I actually win. Lol you're again trying to claim I argued against something that I never did. Your attempt to control the argument and claim I'm defending a position that I've explicitly said I'm not is a joke.

LMAO no just no. MS owns windows..not PC they got Zero if you get the game on PC, wereas they get royalties if you get it on xbnox
