" Sony is using a built-in battery, that is not replaceable."
This is utter BS, it is easily replaceable for less than £10, and they seldom go wrong in the first place. You really ought to do your homework before spouting such nonsense.
To replace a Dualshock battery you undo 5 screws unplug old battery and plug in the new one (it plugs in similar to a 9v 'square' PP9). Then tighten 5 screws.
This process seems extremel...
Now being shafted by Microsoft is a 'feature'. Microsoft are too cheap to put a battery pack in their gamepads and it becomes a beneficial feature of the system.
I've got several PS3 controllers, not one of them (even my launch 6 axis) has ever had the slightest issue with batteries. They charge in about an hour and last for more than a day of continuous heavy usage. Not one of my controllers has lost any noticeable charge over the years and I have not payed a sin...
This game is really splitting the critics. It seems they either give it around 90% or around 50%, with nobody in between.
It does seem odd, but then this is a remake of a 24 year old game based on an awful, painful to watch cartoon series, which is a little odd in itself.
3DS, Wii U, Xbox one, PlayStation Vita, all been called "Dead" by Pachter at some point.
I really wasn't impressed with Sunset Overdrive, it looked a bit like TimeSplitters graphically speaking, maybe just too cartoony for my personal preference (although I loved TimeSplitters).
Some screenshots of one game don't prove any point you're making at all. I could say the same about Sony and link to images of loco cycle adding that it was too graphically intense to run on Xone and needed a PC to show its graphics at E3.
That would be cheap and inaccurate, a bit like your comment.
To be honest, nothing on the Xbox can touch Infamous SS when it comes to precise graphical fidelity, but then it did receive several accolades for being t...
Missed a big opportunity to advertise there!!!!
Trouble is if you want that PC to be as powerful as the new consoles, you have to more than double the consoles stats with the components you use (according to developers, next-gen consoles are more than twice as powerful as a PC with similar stats).
Then of course you have the problem of Microsoft support. Whilst at Uni, my friend Doug was just about the only person who bought legitimate copies of windows and editing software (everyone else used pirated copies).
He w...

You do, or you wouldn't have posted.
I know a good optician, if you want his number pm me!!! Failing that, I'm pretty sure they have come a long way in the treatment of delusional mental conditions recently.
The trouble is that Sony has both the hardware edge and the edge in development talent also.
The crowd that wanted the best tech bought PS3's this generation.
I never thought the PS3 was expensive. I bought mine at launch for £429 (the same price as the Xbone is launching at). It was also the cheapest (and best) blu-ray player around at the time.
Considering it was costing Sony more than twice that amount to make the machine, I thought that it was extremely good value.
When I looked at the 360, and saw everything was proprietary, separate HD-DVD drive, batteries for controller, upgraded hard drive etc, it didn...
It's not a rumour, this SKU has been available in Europe for a while now (£120 in UK). I'm pretty sure it's selling well, so why wouldn't they release it in the US?
It has it's place in the ecosystem and provides a cheap entry point for new PlayStation adopters and a cheap replacement for ailing PS3's.
If you buy the machine and don't get on with it, you haven't lost much, if you buy it and really like it you can expand it easily enough.
Is this article translated or is the 'journalist' an illiterate moron?
EDIT: Its translated.

You've got it completely wrong. The author is a big Nintendo fan (oh well, can't win them all). She says she didn't realise how special the game is until she played it and wants more people to play it in order to sell the system.
I really don't get the troll idea, are you so paranoid that now you're attacking your allies?
What are you on about Number-Nine?
@the realness
I don't think that the power brick is the problem, it's the fact that Microsoft seems incapable of building a system without one, which seems a little incompetent.
There would be nothing wrong with a motorcycle that dragged its fuel tank behind it on a little trailer, but it may make you ask questions about the ability of the designer.
Everyone in the creative field that I know (lots, its my job), uses a mac because they hate windows so much.
I think the most compelling reason to not make comments like "the Xbox is destroying the competition" is the fact that reality tells us it's far from being true.
