Can Next Generation Consoles Hold Their Weight?













The competitive world wasn't too excited about the next generation consoles coming out. None of them seemed too great on supporting the eSport world. Matt "Nadeshot" Haag America's favorite gamer definetly wasn't. He expressed in many of his youtube videos that he didn't know how the turn-out of the Xbox One would be. It didn't seem to support much of the competitive world like the Xbox 360. But have their opinions changed? The 2014 Call of Duty Championships are to be played with the Xbox One's. Why would they do that though if all the qualifiers are with the Xbox 360? They are having all the teams looking to qualify for CoD Champs, qualify on the Xbox 360 but expect them to play the event on the new generation console. It is Call of Duty, and Microsoft's way of gliding the new Xbox One into the competitive world of gaming. So yes, Microsoft when making the Xbox One did intend on letting it be compatible for all competitive gamer's in the Xbox franchise and regular gamer's.

What is Sony doing with their Playstation 4? Well at the beginning of Black Ops 2 there was no competitive seen for Playstation players like there was before and that is MLG's choice. Unless Sony does something that interests MLG, it will still be off the competitive side of games. Only the future will tell on how the competitive world will be with the new generation of consoles being brought into the hands of the gamer's.
