[Colocho]

All for One. One for none.

 

[madmackem]

Thats a terrible banner ad. All in one but you need x amount of other boxes.

 

[Ninja Moomin]

What does that even mean?

for the love of god.

please don't tell me they are basing their marketing on a non existent benefit.

no one cares about changing tv inputs.

PARTICULARLY NOT THE AUDIENCE AT E3.

so much for being all about the games during the show.

they are so out of step with gamers with this message.

 

[Quadraphonic]

I love how they act like it's a FEATURE that your cable TV still works on the TV because you added an intermediary device.

Back in my day of RF adapters, that was expected.

But now you only need one device!*


*except your cable box, dvr, and receiver.

 

[nib95]

I prefer Sony's banner.

 

[Withnail]

Did you guys miss the reveal or something? They kept talking about how they wanted to be input one on the TV, that's what inspired the name apparently.

However this would be a PITA for me because I like to set my TV up differently for the different inputs. Game mode for the console, cinema mode for the BD player, etc. Not in Microsoft's world.

 

[NingenJanai]

It should be: Xbox One. The next watercooler

I must have missed something, I thought I couldn't plug my TV cable box (Free) on an XBox. If I'm wrong and I can, then at least I get the slogan. Anyone?

 

[Zukuu]

All in One.*


*if you have
-A XBL Gold member ship ($$$)
-Are connected to the internet ($$$)
-Have a TV tuner including a sub ($$$)
-Kinect connected
-It's cloudy outside

I miss the days of console advertisement where Crash bandicoot would go on a golf cart and a bullhorn and shout at Nintendo headquarters. it was funny, it showed they were having fun. way too serious now. too much non-sense.

 

[Monty Mole]

Xbox One. Input One. (Except to enable/disable Game Mode).

 

[Portugeezer]

But I don't want to input something.

 

[Fruitster]

What is this nonsence? Whoever is responsible for the xbone's marketing so far is doing a bloody awful job.

 

[Amalthea]

"Xbox One. Input. In your ass."

 

[edgardavids]

It just rolls off the tongue nicely though.

 

[UberTag]

I want the five years of my life I spent working for Xbox back. Can I get those back, please?
In no world does marketing like this make any sort of sense.
Can't wait to see their billion-dollar ad campaign for casuals this fall.

 

[monome]

MS just keeps on delivering.

 

[Larson]

I think is strange when there key selling point is that you have all your entertainment on one HDMI. Why fix something that never was broken in the first place. I can just use one click on my tv controller, its much easier then to shout and wave my arms around.

 

[pelican]

I wish MS would be clearer where I need to insert this. I was thinking inputting it into the bin.

 

[pelican]

I agree. Microsoft seem to forget that modern big screen tvs all have multiple HDMI ports.

 

[Replicant]

But I don't want to input something.

Well too bad. Kinect wants a home-made porn and you gonna make one for it.

Don't worry, E3 is all about the games. Hopefully

 

[Hidden One]

If its 299 then PS4 will be 350..

 

[Eusis]

I agree. Microsoft seem to forget that modern big screen tvs all have multiple HDMI ports.

Mine doesn't, but it's lone HDMI is also input six. But that doesn't work as well for a marketting slogan, and the actual input one would only ever house SNES or N64 due to being S-Video/Composite.

Though HDMI's also one of the easiest to hot swap. It's effectively like a slightly bigger USB plug, it's not like plugging in five cords or something.

These banners are also very conservative too.

"Jump in", "Play Beyond", "make.believe", "Live in your world. Play in ours.".... all have virtual playground element, sense of wonder beyond expectations.

This is just telling people they can connect it to one port on their TV.

 

[Gangxxter]

What does that even mean?

https://twitter.com/GamesRadar/status/343888733327728640

It means you can put your games into only one Xbone.

 

[Jamaro85]

Sorry English is not my first language so I [still] dont understand.

Can someone explain what that means?

^^^^^

 

[Lynd7]

Just thought of one.

"All in one. Master of none."

 

[ChryZ]

Am I really dense? I don't understand that banner at all :S

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Am I really dense? I don't understand that banner at all :S

Not even the guy that made it knows.

 

[avaya]

Fucking LOL Ballmer.

Leadershitfailure indeed.

 

[KiteGr]

All in one ass... Yours!

 

[BadAss2961]

"Xbox One. Input. In your ass."

Because they own it as long as you're paying for XBL.

 

[HTupolev]

Xbox One. Input One. (Except to enable/disable Game Mode).

Why would anyone not own an HD CRT w/ HDMI support?

 

[Ninja Moomin]

Don't worry, E3 is all about the games. Hopefully

clearly that isn't the case. This banner is at e3.

 

[Jamie OD]

It's a pretty bold statement.

 

[relaxor]

Am I really dense? I don't understand that banner at all :S

No, not your fault.

It's a buffet of confusion and double entendre.

 

[mrklaw]

They should have used this one

(This is me really showing my age)

 

[JAYSIMPLE]

i dont think ive ever switched in really liking a company to despising one. i love my 360. deffo the best console this gen for me and my friends, ms have lost it. i would even say i despise them now. save us sony

The one to get my money is the first one to have "Fuck shit up" as their slogan.

It's so hard to do that even fucking WiiU allow to change sources when you set it as a universal remote and it's like the only thing one would even use it here (that and lower the sound because my tv is so freaking loud).

 

[Xbudz]

All in one fell swoop.

 

[FireVoa]

Xbox One. Ignoring fan input.
