Did Xbox become the next water cooler?

>>386584850
I know you can cook an egg on it.

>>386584850
What is that even supposed to mean?

>>386584850
Irrelevant, outdated, and only used by retards who are too lazy and stupid to get a better option? Yes.

>>386584850
>water cooler has no games
>xbox has no games
makes sense

>>386584850
Was the Xbox One designed for the 90s?

>>386585186
I think the idea was to set up Xbox "stations" in offices, so people can meet for a quick refreshing round of ... what games do people even play on Xbox these days? Halo?

>>386585361
Pretty much.

same as ps4 out of touch sonygroid

>>386585724
>BUT
>SONYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

What we have here is a good example for the importance of marketing/branding.

PS4 turned out to be more successful with #4theplayers, "us oldschools hardcore gamers", than XB1 with its "its a multipurpose entertainment device" "you can watch TV on your TV with it"

although they are essentially the same.

>someone at Microsoft gets paid to damage control on /v/ every time the Xbox One is mentioned
It's so weird that you think people on this board in particular give a fuck about console multiplatform titles.

>>386585724
>b-b-but sony

I don't even own a console, you consolewar kiddo.

Nigga, how is a fucking water cooler outdated?

>>386585851
Xbone tried to do the media hub thing the PS3 did last gen for some reason.

>>386585951

Nothing. Enjoy your germy, stale water.

>>386585951
>what is bottled water

god, that was so bad

>>386586142
Something that runs out quickly and can then be refilled from the water cooler?

>>386585951
Because you can just get a fucking fridge with a built-in water filter and have the exact same thing without having to go out and get more jugs every week, and it'll end up being less expensive in the long run even accounting for the cost of the filters.

Trading in my ps4 for a switch. Ps4 is collecting dust while I play my 3ds all the time instead.

No, they meant that Xbox would have been the new way to get together and socialize. In offices, you go to the water cooler to take a break and make small talk with coworkers. Still a retarded marketing strategy.

>>386586142
>Wasteful
>Expensive
Good if you're on the go, but I'm not going to drink 2 or 3 bottles of water a day just sitting around the house.

Water heater, more like.

>what games do people even play on Xbox these days?

Everyone obviously knows it's cod, fifa and gta so why ask?

>>386586328
Wait, you have a fucking water cooler in your house? What 3rd world country do you live in?

>>386586449
tap water doesnt taste very good

>>386585186
She means the next buzzing hot topic everyone talks about. In tv they call them watercooler shows because it's the shows employees bring up while waiting in line or hanging around the waster cooler

>>386585186
Literally the only way I can interpret it is that Xbox One was supposed to be the place where you meet up with your co-workers/friends and talk about shit that has happened in the week or something, it's a really dumb thing to say.

In fact that whole reveal is just something else, even if you look past all the anti-consumer shit the way they try to push TV is just what the fuck are you doing. They acted as if TV was a big deal in 2013, it was funny then but fucking hilarious now.

>Ultimate Edition over Gears 4
What? I mean, UE is great but it's been out for awhile. Why is it above Gears 4 player countwise?

>>386585846
>>386585887
>>386585856
It's just a rebuttal. No need to get assblasted about it. Consolefags all play the same games so it's laughable when anyone fanbase tries to shit on the other for "no games lol"

>>386586526
3rd world confirmed, then

There is literally nothing wrong with owning a water cooler.

The original reveal certainly got people talking about the Xbox One, but not in the way they wanted. Glad they seem to have gotten it back on track in recent years.

What kind of 3rd world shithole still has watercoolers and specially being the main break areas

Honestly, how much better would the Xbox One had sold if
>E3 was the reveal with all of the game announcements
>They didn't pull any DRM shit with the console
>Kinect was optional, $399 without, $499 with
>The "social and TV features" was an event the next month after the E3 reveal

What future techo-utopia are you from where people don't need to drink water to stay hydrated?
