This speech was intended for the advertising sector via the Association of National Advertisers Masters of Marketing Conference. Highlighting new revenue streams for the economy as a whole. This is not for stupid ass gamers who don’t understand the workings of the real world.

Advertising is the foundation of a capitalist economy, if that statement doesn’t make sense then go back to school. To many stupid people trying to comment on subjects they have no understanding about.

I remember a time when people said if the xbox had a keyboard and mouse then it would be no better than a low end pc. I remember when everyone shredded the original xbox for being nothing more than a pc in a console shell and laughed at a keyboard mouse setup.

How times change.

"Whatever sorts of innovations that are created for the Kinect on Xbox One, it really seems like third party publishers will be less likely to be the ones who deliver those changes. It looks like those types of innovations are going to have to come from first party developers who are working on the Xbox One and no other console."

Sure... whatever you say.

Cherry picking words at its finest.

As mentioned by some above, this is a console developer not a game developer and the words have been conveniently massaged to paint a different picture. Who is worse, the people who come up with this trash, or the people that buy into their fabricated drama.

This is one of the most in depth interviews I have seen in a while and there is no hate for Sony by these guys. This rubbish totally tries to take the credibility from...

Not funny.

Damn,
Are we doing this all over again?

On topic, the article title is just flame bait. Yoshida said no such thing, the artie is based off "We want consumers to look at how much fun it is to use this system".
No cause for rage here. Don't give gameranx what they want.

Did you play ico and shadow of the colossus? If you did play them through to the end you'll know how unique they are in an ocean of mediocrity.

The last guardian deservese nothing less than the light of day, the people behind team ICO are some of the most talented individuals that gaming has ever seen.

Ico and the shadow of the colossus are in my top 10 games of all time, the last guardian has me completely entranced. It feels like a lifetime since it was announced, but I believe that the wait will be worth it.

The real world will cease to exist for me when this gem is released.
Thankyou Ueda-san, for your amazing contributions to gaming.

Very true,

His attitude is infectious, one very happy dapper dude.

Lol, what torture having a game for a console you don't yet have.

Thank god that 'dude' (putting it nicley lol) has nothing to do with the Xbox brand anymore!

"Ueda-san is here, working - even though he's not a Sony employee"

Hearing this has just made my day. Thank the heavens!

I think I'll be booking a whole week of work for the last guardian, there is no doubt in my mind that this will be a pillar of excellence.

What a read! It's quite amazing when you get a peek behind the curtains into the inner workings. Identifying the unique minds that have dedicated their professional lives to research and development in very specific fields. Finding out how these people come together bringing their unique insights to create pioneering ways to accomplish a envisioned idea is a welcome treat.

Let me see...

1. Heart rate monitor could be used in horror games where the soundtrack and sound effects could be ramped up based on you pulse. When the game knows your scared it could throw more at you to really put the heebie jeebies up you.

2. Heart Rate could be used in exercise games to gauge if your pushing yourself too little or too much.

3. Eye tracking could be used to trigger specific dialogue, such as if a master villain is talking...

Good job!

Straight talking interview, hardly any PR tag lines and lots of relatable answers.

7 more weeks! Bring it on!

Edit:

"Do you think the comparisons with PS4 have hurt you in the long run? And did they hurt you in the short term?"

I would have answered... Well you prats didn't help us much with your obnoxious cover, assholes.

lol

I really hope that this won't be the case. This time round all MS need to do is continue to provide new content. The hardware is done this time round before launch so hopefully they won't be pooling their resources into making a new experience after the launch of the console like they did with kinect 1.

Who knows though, the Internet is rife with rumours about microsofts demise, from selling off the Xbox brand, restructuring departments, severed senior heads rolling...

What a boring read.
They haven't responded to developer claim at all, Phil is on auto pilot with his responses and Fergal is lapping up the praise. No new information here at all.

Edge, you're really starting to suck.

If indeed there is a clear power advantage then it needs to be clear in the x-plat games. If the games are gonna be gimped down for PS4 then the whole power argument is pointless. The only benefit being to platform exclusives...

Sometimes life can throw experience at people at a very young age that causes premature maturity, just as sheltered adults can be socially and vocally inept. Every thing we choose to do will be the result of a conscious decision we make. Every choice that lies in our past shapes our future as we are creatures of habit. One has to be very strong willed to be a good person in the face of adversity, as that path is much harder to tread, meaning we are responsible for our own actions. No inanimat...
