You know the funny thing about HoloLens? It does sell and it is used fairly often, except it's not a gaming device! Let me explain, I work as a designer and architect. When we have to communicate changes, mistakes, modifications and such on a construction on the fly we use it to see the piece on the spot while sketching in 3D what needs to be done directly from our office. It's a huge time saver and makes explaining complex details among different staff members really easy. I doubt we will see AR tech for gaming though, at least not in the near future. I think MS realised it from the get go and wanted to avoid yet another Kinect situation - great 3D scanner for the time, horrible device for gaming!
I remember some dumbass saw the red ring in the photo I showed her of my 360 and she literally told me that the photo was photoshopped. why would I want to fix a console that's perfectly fine? why would I go through the effort?

I genuinely believe that presentation is one of the main reasons why PS4 is still dominating today. Literally all Sony had to do was say "yeah, that thing Microsoft is doing... We're not doing that thing".
I remember when Joe Vargas was interviewing a Microsoft bigwig about the XBONE DRM and how detrimental it would be to them, saying that they needed to flip that switch off. The bigwig got pissy and condescending, saying the DRM was built into the architecture and couldn't be removed. Then, like two days later, Microsoft announced the Day 1 patch would remove the DRM

500GB is actually the raw number before formating, which after formating is more like 484GB, then you need space to install 2 OS, WIndows 10 and the XBox game OS.

"What are some of the biggest mistakes that Microsoft has made with the Xbox that you can remember?" I remember one time walking into the local Walmart in my town and seeing a bargain bin in the electronics section over flowing with Original Xbox consoles (when they were new mind you) with a price sticker that said $99.99. Apparently nobody in my moderately sized town wanted to buy the console since it looked like crap and the controller was too big.
The original xbox jumped into a market that was dominated by other systems. The fact that the original xbox gained a fan base at all is a testament to good faith put behind the project. All it means is your moderately sized town didn't trust to buy what they didn't know. The original xbox had plenty of games that are considered classics to this day.

I think they dont mention it because it didn't happen til near the end of the cycle, 360 released in 05, ps3 came out in 06 and didn't beat 360 til 2013
Yokonato if you also think about it PS3 had the upper hand since they sell well overseas, whereas Xbox struggles. So I would say Xbox did impressive that generation
Just *barely,* and that was internationally. In the US, the 360 still outsold it, albeit by an equally slim margin, and even then, the sales gap between the 360 and PS3 didn't really close all that much in all regions (except Japan where the former was always way behind) until the very end of that generation.

General AkAbA, still didn’t sell more than the PS3. And developers are already saying that the PS5 is looking to be the more powerful console out of the gate. Pair that with the fact that Sony will continue to give console gamers what they want, I doubt Xbox is on top this gen. They were only ever on top for half of a generation.
I love how you guys post venom snake doing funny poses in your video. 1:10 My favourite game and love watching sfm videos of them doing funny things. Lol
So, ima be straight up. I bought an xbox one with the kinnect, and I loved it. I stopped wasting controller battery life by using the kinnect voice option.
Besides the many blunders that took place at the Xone launch, I remember I've got a message from Microsoft calling me a "fan". And that explained the whole thing for me, MS had forgotten that I'm their customer. So I decided to get a PS4.
Before I watch the video I'm hoping the hardware failure rate gets mentioned from the early 360 era. Edit: the PS3 did outsell the 360 by the end of the era. Unless you just mean the sales at the time they dropped HD DVD
I do not understand why people think a lot of money for a gaming console that last 8+ years is 5 or 600 dollars. Honestly people pay 1,200$ on phones every two years that have NO actual upgrades. As a hardcore gamer i'm willing to buy the ps5 for upwards of 800 if they can promise that it will be a massive jump in technology. I get it back then, because gaming was for kids but now grown ass adults have no excuse to not be able to finance that.
The worst thing about the whole "Entertainment System" thing is, that they screwed it up. I remember in 2013/14 (idk exactly) where a bro got his Xbox One, playing a game and started UA-cam in a extra window, but this was actually covering the game window or making it smaller. Also like this picture in picture mode as showed in the ads back in this time never worked like shown. If they would've successfully made the entertainment system, so I mean playing a game while watching a Football match, a UA-cam guide or whatever + skyping with a friend the console would have been bombasticly good. Like the best ever. But I mean nowadays you still can watch TV/Netflix and whatever, but not while gaming. You can listen to music while gaming but PS4 literally does the same so idk, I have both and I really just cared about gaming since I realized Xbox fucked up the other features. But I mean, these are CONSOLES so why not game?

Atsuko Kagari it didn’t have more power. They had the same performance, except the Xbox, with better fans, was near impossible to overheat, making games perform better, and better connection systems. Making download speeds faster.
PS3 closed it's sales numbers six months before x-box. Microsft waited with their closing and reported 20k more sold. Sony in those six months sold almost 100k so no, 360 didn't sell more consoles. Not a single microsoft console won a generation.
Tom K but the 360 had one year of sales before the PS3 even released… However, the PS3 sold more units BECAUSE of the intentional delay and change to Blu-Ray back in February 2006. That’s why the PS3 ended up in more homes.
You realize that PlayStation 3 didn't even exist when Microsoft released the Xbox 360, right? As far as they were aware, they were competing against the PS2, which operated on DVDs. Third Party developers, of which there were MANY back in those days, all created their games based on the specifications of a DVD. No one expected such a huge jump in size until a couple of years after the PS3 was released because devs were still trying to figure out how to utilize the Cell architecture.
@@untseac well i wanna see someone 3d Modelling with VR. I don't know if it has been done but it would literally be of no use while modelling in my opinion.

With a VR Headset you could mostly just review what you have done in Production till now or even just the final work and only if it HAS to do something with VR.

The PS3 only beat the Xbox 360 in like the end of the gen thats why I think they didnt mention it and just for being a 2nd Generation Xbox it really did well against the 3rd generation PS3. If the Xbox One had just been handled well Xbox could have beaten the PS not by a lot but it would have still been a very big milestone.
@@imixupwords5340 Not sure why it would matter when the PS3 surpassed the xbox. Only thing that should matter when talking about how many of each that were sold is that when they stopped production and such which had sold more. They lost something like 4 billion on the first xbox and then shipped the 360 out to stores knowing beforehand that they had a 68% defect rate coming off the line and had to eat over a billion to cover the returns. I'd bet that the only thing that kept it from being scrapped was that it was microsoft and losing 4 billion was no big deal to them. When you have that much money to burn and you are already a tech superpower that kinda nullifies the 2nd vs 3rd console argument (if there was one)... but look at playstation vs nintendo - the ps and the ps2 were the 1st and 2nd ps consoles : their counterparts at nintendo were the n64 ( nintendo's 3rd) and the gamecube (4th) respectively. Sony did pretty well for being a newbie in the video gaming industry and being 2 gens of consoles behind of nintendo
I don't understand why people bring up sales, they don't really prove anything besides more people prefer it, that's the only point you're proving. It doesn't make the gameplay better or anything of the kind.
They didn’t really fix anything. I bought one off my brother and ended up getting RRoD. Sent it in, got another unit (which they re-serialized as being mine) only for it to die a week before my extended warranty on my returned unit expired. I’ve owned 4 of the original 360’s and all of them Ringed. Bought an S and it hadn’t ever let me down in the years since buying it, further proving that the original 360 was a flawed design. Also, when I mean “re-serialized”, they just put a sticker with your serial number on the refurbished unit. Ever wondered how the turnaround time was less than a week?
So i have a question, you get games like gta 5 for free with xbox live gold but if it is once considered free, does it always stay that way. Because I just got xbox live gold and it says that in January 3 2020 GTA 5 was for free, does that still apply now and not only with GTA 5, other games as well.
HD DVD used Microsoft's patented software for its interactivity menus. Blu-Ray was developed by Sony along with Philips. At the time, the two formats were at war and no one knew which would win the market yet.

@Pizza Boy Gears 5, Forza Horizon 4, Gamepass, Play Anywhere, Xcloud, 8 new studios, more exclusives and most of all a powerful system without a hinder like Kinect. Yeah I think they learned.
I actually wanted to Kinect for one reason alone. Mass effect, the changing of ammo, commanding your people to go to places or other things was AMAZING in ME2 but that’s about it. I was hoping they would add a lot more stuff like that.
The Xbox one was garbage at launch, in fact I thought I would never get an Xbox one, and in 2019 I bought the Gears 5 One X limited edition console and absolutely adore the thing, while Microsoft screwed up, in the end they became the most consumer friendly game company of the bunch
Fabian Quesada I too hated the Xbox one for years but ended up getting one in 2018 and I love it. I think it all comes down to Phil Spencer taking over and actually adding value to the consumer.

The bigwig got pissy and condescending, saying the DRM was built into the architecture and couldn't be removed.
Then, like two days later, Microsoft announced the Day 1 patch would remove the DRM

Hololens isnt an xbox thing, it's just a microsoft thing. I saw them at a microsoft store in the mall and you can buy them I think
You can, they are just expensive and still developing the ecosystem. It'll be a few years till a consumer version. Good, is better than earlier.
Iris Dogma it’s not really aimed at consumers
@@Happyhenzo Not yet. It's not typical for new technology to go straight to consumers. The cellphone didn't. Commerce has big pockets and niche needs. They typically fund the steps to cheaper production and better software ecosystems. Eventually, hololens will also be a consumer product.
Iris Dogma no I mean the actual purpose of it is literally to enhance business and training, not play minecraft on your coffee table
@@Happyhenzo That was the same purpose as the cellphone and pda, which eventually became modern smartphones. What I'm saying is that it's typical of early technologies to be for enterprise first, and come to consumers later.
What about when they advertised that the smaller Xbox One storage would have 500G, when it only had 342G and when they were confronted they said the 158G was to maintain a ‘good operating system’
Oh my god, that's really bad
500GB is actually the raw number before formating, which after formating is more like 484GB, then you need space to install 2 OS, WIndows 10 and the XBox game OS.
Companies like Microsoft should stop advertising systems as having 500G of storage when in reality it’s a smaller number. Really misleading

Microsoft wouldn't let them develop anything other than halo games
Probably not big but rushing Halo 5.
What
Fuck Halo 5
Tactical sloth78 Halo 5 full stop. Ruined a great franchise, by trying to “Cal of Duty-ify” it; meaning they’re releasing too many of em.
The marketing though. I was kinda interested to see where it was going even though I didnt own an xbox one. Such a letdown
Thomas Abbott-Young I don’t know about it trying to be like Call of Duty, you can argue about that with Halo 4 but not really 5. Halo 5 has it’s issues but definitely a far better experience than Halo 4. But I wouldn’t say the franchise is necessarily ruined, a lot of great franchises have terrible games.

"What are some of the biggest mistakes that Microsoft has made with the Xbox that you can remember?"
I remember one time walking into the local Walmart in my town and seeing a bargain bin in the electronics section over flowing with Original Xbox consoles (when they were new mind you) with a price sticker that said $99.99. Apparently nobody in my moderately sized town wanted to buy the console since it looked like crap and the controller was too big.
The original xbox jumped into a market that was dominated by other systems. The fact that the original xbox gained a fan base at all is a testament to good faith put behind the project. All it means is your moderately sized town didn't trust to buy what they didn't know. The original xbox had plenty of games that are considered classics to this day.

Actually the Playstation 3 did outsell the 360
I think they dont mention it because it didn't happen til near the end of the cycle, 360 released in 05, ps3 came out in 06 and didn't beat 360 til 2013
At the last year of that generation. It was Xbox most of that generation.
Yokonato if you also think about it PS3 had the upper hand since they sell well overseas, whereas Xbox struggles. So I would say Xbox did impressive that generation
Just *barely,* and that was internationally. In the US, the 360 still outsold it, albeit by an equally slim margin, and even then, the sales gap between the 360 and PS3 didn't really close all that much in all regions (except Japan where the former was always way behind) until the very end of that generation.
jose ramiro reynoso ruiz it does matter. 360 outsold the ps3 6 years, on year 7 when the next generation began ps3 finally caught up. It’s more nuanced than just “who had more in the end”
2:53 the Ps3 did outsell the 360 just before it's discontiuation in the end. By 300,000 unit estamated

Besides the many blunders that took place at the Xone launch, I remember I've got a message from Microsoft calling me a "fan". And that explained the whole thing for me, MS had forgotten that I'm their customer. So I decided to get a PS4.
Before I watch the video I'm hoping the hardware failure rate gets mentioned from the early 360 era.
Edit: the PS3 did outsell the 360 by the end of the era. Unless you just mean the sales at the time they dropped HD DVD
I do not understand why people think a lot of money for a gaming console that last 8+ years is 5 or 600 dollars. Honestly people pay 1,200$ on phones every two years that have NO actual upgrades. As a hardcore gamer i'm willing to buy the ps5 for upwards of 800 if they can promise that it will be a massive jump in technology. I get it back then, because gaming was for kids but now grown ass adults have no excuse to not be able to finance that.

The worst thing about the whole "Entertainment System" thing is, that they screwed it up.

Also like this picture in picture mode as showed in the ads back in this time never worked like shown. If they would've successfully made the entertainment system, so I mean playing a game while watching a Football match, a UA-cam guide or whatever + skyping with a friend the console would have been bombasticly good. Like the best ever. But I mean nowadays you still can watch TV/Netflix and whatever, but not while gaming. You can listen to music while gaming but PS4 literally does the same so idk, I have both and I really just cared about gaming since I realized Xbox fucked up the other features.

PS3 closed it's sales numbers six months before x-box. Microsft waited with their closing and reported 20k more sold. Sony in those six months sold almost 100k so no, 360 didn't sell more consoles. Not a single microsoft console won a generation.
Tom K but the 360 had one year of sales before the PS3 even released… However, the PS3 sold more units BECAUSE of the intentional delay and change to Blu-Ray back in February 2006. That’s why the PS3 ended up in more homes.
You realize that PlayStation 3 didn't even exist when Microsoft released the Xbox 360, right? As far as they were aware, they were competing against the PS2, which operated on DVDs. Third Party developers, of which there were MANY back in those days, all created their games based on the specifications of a DVD. No one expected such a huge jump in size until a couple of years after the PS3 was released because devs were still trying to figure out how to utilize the Cell architecture.

If the Xbox One had just been handled well Xbox could have beaten the PS not by a lot but it would have still been a very big milestone.
@@imixupwords5340 Not sure why it would matter when the PS3 surpassed the xbox. Only thing that should matter when talking about how many of each that were sold is that when they stopped production and such which had sold more.
They lost something like 4 billion on the first xbox and then shipped the 360 out to stores knowing beforehand that they had a 68% defect rate coming off the line and had to eat over a billion to cover the returns. I'd bet that the only thing that kept it from being scrapped was that it was microsoft and losing 4 billion was no big deal to them. When you have that much money to burn and you are already a tech superpower that kinda nullifies the 2nd vs 3rd console argument (if there was one)... but look at playstation vs nintendo - the ps and the ps2 were the 1st and 2nd ps consoles : their counterparts at nintendo were the n64 ( nintendo's 3rd) and the gamecube (4th) respectively. Sony did pretty well for being a newbie in the video gaming industry and being 2 gens of consoles behind of nintendo
I don't understand why people bring up sales, they don't really prove anything besides more people prefer it, that's the only point you're proving. It doesn't make the gameplay better or anything of the kind.

They didn’t really fix anything. I bought one off my brother and ended up getting RRoD. Sent it in, got another unit (which they re-serialized as being mine) only for it to die a week before my extended warranty on my returned unit expired. I’ve owned 4 of the original 360’s and all of them Ringed. Bought an S and it hadn’t ever let me down in the years since buying it, further proving that the original 360 was a flawed design.
Also, when I mean “re-serialized”, they just put a sticker with your serial number on the refurbished unit. Ever wondered how the turnaround time was less than a week?
So i have a question, you get games like gta 5 for free with xbox live gold but if it is once considered free, does it always stay that way. Because I just got xbox live gold and it says that in January 3 2020 GTA 5 was for free, does that still apply now and not only with GTA 5, other games as well.
HD DVD used Microsoft's patented software for its interactivity menus.
Blu-Ray was developed by Sony along with Philips.
At the time, the two formats were at war and no one knew which would win the market yet.
Cool story with poor spelling bro.
At the moment Sony announced PS3 will have Blu-ray, it was game over for HD DVD. 15 month after PS3 release HD DVD officially died.
@@7531monkey Correct, thanks, I guess.
@@bLd321 I thought about buying one just for the player bc it was a good price and maybe the best Blu-Ray player on the market. It was like buy a Blu-Ray player and get a free game console, at the time.
As a Microsoft consumer Xbox one has been a flop
Trevor Huntoon I agree 2/3 console generations of messing up
Walter Spencer I hope they get their shut together genuinely because I want to support an American company but I can’t support consumer attacking practices lol
When I went to get my X1, the very first thing I asked for was one without a Kinect. Don't regret that decision in the least.
The scratching disc happened to me and I immediately returned my 360 and got a ps3 instead
Title of next video: Twenty Google stadia mistakes they hope to God everyone forgets.
Number 20,its very existence
Gameranx:“Not that the PlayStation 3 outsold the Xbox 360 by any stretch” Statistics: Are you sure about that?
I was think the same thing like I’m pretty sure the ps3 outsold the Xbox 360
You forgot to mention that when came out, it was around the time of the NSA scandal.
The good thing out of this is that they learned from their mistakes.
@Pizza Boy Gears 5, Forza Horizon 4, Gamepass, Play Anywhere, Xcloud, 8 new studios, more exclusives and most of all a powerful system without a hinder like Kinect. Yeah I think they learned.
@@imixupwords5340 well we just have to wait and seen if they actually learned from there mistakes or just fixed them
I actually wanted to Kinect for one reason alone. Mass effect, the changing of ammo, commanding your people to go to places or other things was AMAZING in ME2 but that’s about it. I was hoping they would add a lot more stuff like that.
It's 2020 and I still use my Kinect. :P
Jedsion For what games?
You crazy fam.
@@nickabbott319 for fapping simulator xD
You can use it for video calls like Skype?
@@MoviesNGames007uk your phone from 2010 has a better camera wtf you saying?
The Xbox controller is excellent wish I could use it for my Ps5 when I get it
Just get the new Xbox. It will shit on PS5 in EVERY way..
leonxl dude I hate having to update a game to play offline and the longer load times on the xbox one x vs the ps4 pro
May Daze PS4 pro and One X have the same kind of hard drive, tf are you talking about??
@@leonxl It really won't, but go off my man...
@@leonxl Xbot
Great video! The criticism is so accurate!! 👍🏾😂
The Xbox one was garbage at launch, in fact I thought I would never get an Xbox one, and in 2019 I bought the Gears 5 One X limited edition console and absolutely adore the thing, while Microsoft screwed up, in the end they became the most consumer friendly game company of the bunch
Fabian Quesada I too hated the Xbox one for years but ended up getting one in 2018 and I love it. I think it all comes down to Phil Spencer taking over and actually adding value to the consumer.
Microsoft is now by far most consumer friendly game company and I love the fact they realised that there's a lot of money in coming back to PC platform
The ps3 did out sell the 360 but only after the current gen came out
I remember that PS4 Xbox one E3, that will always stay in my mind, it was just a ridiculous day, I doubt that there will ever a day like that
Hm, looking at the dislike ratio and number between this video and their PS video, I suppose Gameranx's audience is mostly Playstation users?
And who cares tho lol
5:36 that's how my original forza horizon died and i'm sad because i want to play it for nostalgia
Adding a built in camera that required you to have an internet connection at all times to so they can watch to see if you break into their consoles. Now THAT was a mistake.
got my ROD 2 min after i started assassins creed 2 that i just got..
