11 Things Microsoft Wants You To Forget About The Xbox One

10. The 360's Popularity

Why bother buying a new game-less console when you've got Grand Theft Auto 5 sitting right in front of you? Many gamers didn't actually realise there was a 360 version of Titanfall in the works too, which mechanically plays exactly the same as the Xbox One version, the only downside being a reduction in visual quality. Although much is made of the importance of frame-rates, resolutions and graphics, when it really comes down to it what you end up discussing with your friends or online is the games themselves. Favourite levels, memorable characters, infuriating boss fights etc. All these things are at the heart of gaming, and even though many console owners have become very PC-like in their analysis of a game's graphical capabilities, when the gameplay behind something as beautifully-rendered as Ryse: Son of Rome is incredibly boring regardless, sticking with the 360 and delving into its amazing back-catalogue is a far better use of your time.
