I don't know where that 2.3% thing came from PS4 in UK best sellers of 2013 is #3 and Xbox One is #46. MS is doing much worse in UK than US. PS4 is also #1 on most wished for.

This restructure is a joke.

They shifted a few people are changed some division names and boom they think their going to win next gen. It's all the same people with the same mindset.

And trying to sell Xbox's to business is laughable and should really show you how little Microsoft understands what there customer wants. And what the mindset is at Microsoft.

The Xbox has been one of the most poorly handled products I can remember in my...

Or you could just use a PC that you already own.

I disagree.

Length has large impact on the value of a game to me.

When I was deciding if I would spend $60 on Last of Us I only did one search "how long is last of us". When it said about 15 hours I decided to buy it at $60 versus waiting for a price drop. If the reviews had said 6-8 hours I wouldn't have bought it.

I feel like a lot of people would not have felt it a 10 game if it had been 6 hours myself included.

I love Nintendo, my whole childhood was Nintendo. But recently they have really been making choices I can not support.

I think your article is less accurate than the techradar article.

Microsoft has said they plan to use eye tacking to target ads. True they might have settings for Kinect but I doubt turn off all ads will be one of them.

Also the light bar on PS4 changes color to indicate the player number 1-4. And as far as battery drain a simple LED or two are in no way likely to cause any noticeable drain on on the controller. An LED can run non-stop for more than a year ...

That's what I was thinking, but I know nothing about the case.

If the glove don't fit you must acquit!

You can't imagine how many people would be contacting customer support after a change like this?

It may seem like a simple thing but it's not and there will always be mistakes. I'm not saying it would be impossible, I'm just saying most retailers would probably prefer not to deal with it. Especially places that have taken full payment in cash.

Edited to add:

Retailers don't pay $499 they sign deals to buy in bulk at nego...

A price cut would be a huge pain for retailers that are taking pre-orders. It seems unlikely to happen before launch. Maybe for the holidays but my guess is MS will want to do at least one holiday at this price.

This bug actually caused BSOD/hardlock for me. One so bad I had to reinstall OS. Personally I'm going to stick with 298.xx.

I love Civ games. I'm looking forward to the expansion, though I think it should be $19.99 not $29.99.

For people who get bored after 100 turns just a suggestion, try starting in a different era. Like the Industrial era, you can have a short game and use tanks and airplanes and ships from the start.

Personally, I think WiiU owners are lucky to not have EA on there console. All EA brings is crappy dlc and cheapened/monetized versions of once great franchises.

At this point I'm going to say that title seems extremely unlikely.

Gamers will be the main audience of Xbox and atm it seems they strongly prefer PS4. And non gamers who they think want it for the TV features are NEVER going to pay $500 plus a monthly fee.

You can get a Google TV box for $99 that does basically the same thing with no monthly fee. Add to that the fact that even low/mid range TV's are coming with built in Google TV. As well as Blu-ra...

Jitter? I didn't say a broken mouse, I said a cheap mouse.

4602d ago 8 agree0 disagreeView comment

That's not true at all. Even a cheap laser mouse is more accurate than a controller for the vast majority of people. Every controller ever made has to have a minimum of a 10% dead zone. Even the cheapest mouse has 0% dead zone

And "gaming" mice are pretty much a gimmick to charge $50-$100 for an item that cost $2-$15 to manufacture. Mostly the benefit of "gaming" mice is the number of buttons and macro support.

Sounds great to me. I have been wanting KB/M support on consoles for a long time.

And a cheap KB/M can be had for 10$ combined.

Is this title some sort of racist joke? It's in really poor taste.

Haha this is the best thing I have seen on this site recently.

This article has been paraphrased three times on this site and each of the three times this guy has seemingly said totally different things.
