Good, you shouldn't underestimate your competition. Go all out.

Hahaha this is made up.

My fellow gamers, the time has come, in a few hours we are going to receive the next gen with the best and more powerful console in the market.

It has been a long wait but finally it all starts tonight.

Maybe not resolution, but Shuhei is a smart man, surely considering the gap in hardware he was expecting some kind of difference.

Or maybe he was expecting publishers to enforce parity and is merely surprised they allowed the developers to take advantage of the PS4 hardware.

In reality Sony & Microsoft are actually very close. Its all about business for both corporations but the media can make it seem like they both hate each other. At the end of the day they both are just out der trying to convince ppl to buy their products.

nobody was expecting a 720p call of duty, it just goes to show how weak the xbox one really is, even the developers said it wasn't from lack of trying, the xbox one has a cool os but after the gimmicks fade away and you want to do a few hours of gaming the ps4 is where its at

I wasn't expecting any of what happened this year. In Jan I just knew MS would destroy Sony and have a far superior system with the kool name Xbox Infinity. No, that's not what happened at all.

Neither was Microsoft.

Lucky for Sony, Microsoft has a weak console.

(Too bad PS4 doesn't have Titanfall though)

Ok before anyone freaks out here, I am a ps fan since the original psx, and I will be getting ps4 for sure but just not on launch. Anyways with all honestly I really couldn't tell the difference in the comparsion videos, I mean when I paused the player and started nitpicking I could see a difference but a very very slight one. While the video was playing unpaused I never saw a difference. Anyways it's always gonna come down to exclusives in the end, that's why Sony always wins. Sony does the best exclusives, whether it be psn indies or triple aaa.

But honestly there is no difference especially if your in gameplay. Differences show when u pause and start squinting.

I hope they're able to do even better graphics and stay at 30fps. I still believe 60fps isn't a must for most games. A constant 30fps looks and feels fine on console.

However, 30fps on PC with a mouse isn't fun, but with a controller, it's fine.

I don't really know what to think or say. I feel a bit down after all the reports of PS4 breaking and wobbling etc. Maybe MS have learned lessons. Maybe their console will be reliable. Who knows? I don't know, but I will say this , that It would feel so wrong , 'dirty' almost to buy an XB. I will say this, that resolution is not as important to me as solid reliability and class which MS are definitely NOT known for , but could that have changed? I mean the XB one is HUGE and separate power brick. SO what could go wrong?

I could care less all i need is for the SYSTEM TO PLAY AT 1080P why btch bout resolution or frame rate per second just a wast of breath.

I know what Xbox One's New Year's Resolution is going to be...

Now that Jim Ryan is gone just need to remove Herman Hulst from his position! And maybe give Shuhei the position he deserved.

This gen hasn't been the best for games, last gen consoles are still out there and now there's been talk of the PS6 and Xbox Two for a year or so. Many games this gen will be ported to next gen and the cycle will continue. The re-release of the Neo Geo AES+, games on cartridge for £70 ($95), gaming is going back in time. Gaming has gone pricing mad with the high cost of games, consoles and controllers. The men and women at the top are clueless.

It’s always interesting to hear behind-the-scenes stories like this, especially involving veterans like Shuhei Yoshida and leadership figures like Jim Ryan. That said, there are usually multiple sides to decisions at that level. It could be less about not “listening” and more about differences in long-term vision for PlayStation. Yoshida played a huge role in shaping the brand, so whatever the reason, his impact is undeniable.

If true, and I'm inclined to believe it is, it goes to show that Sony lost their way when they became more western/didn't respect the PlayStation origin story. Andrew House and Jack Tretton did great work, but they also didn't try to fundamentally change the PlayStation DNA. Ryan oversaw the death of Japan Studio and a live service direction.

I already figured this, good lord imagine if Shuhei took over instead, would've been a platinum era 😩

I miss the first three generations of PlayStation. The way they turned PS3 around, we knew they meant business. We were all worried for a bit there around launch. Eventually from 2008 they started shifting slowly. But since Yoshida was fired, it's never been the same. Still enjoy my PS5 daily. I got a backlog dating back to PS2 lol So I'm fine but new games aren't as appealing anymore.

It seems like we were thrown on to the worst timeline possible where everything is too expensive and the wrong people were put in positions that makes the world a shitty place. We could have had Shu as the head of PS but we got the shitty alternative. Same goes for everyone in power around the world. Doesn’t matter the company or country the majority of us got the shitty picks and the world is declining like never before. I do think PS can come out of this because of their studios, talent and IP but they need someone more in touch with gamers leading things like Shu was. They’re still the best place for console gaming imo but it could be much better than it is especially without the massive live service failures. The rest of the world I have a lot less hope for right now. Hopefully the pendulum swings back towards the good ole days but I’m preparing for the worst.

There goes illuminati distraction story

So now there's certifiable proof that Ryan was in fact "fired", as opposed to when it was first announced that he "retired", in order to save face.

There's another guy who recently "retired" as CEO of another large gaming company, after doing a dismantling job as lead for well over a decade.

seems legit, the business man, fires the one who has ideas to move the business forward.

Jim Ryan is the reason why we are entering year 6 since the PS5 launch and many of us don't feel like the PS5 has gotten started as yet.

I hope going forward, we will see a return to form.
