to rip off people in other regions and adjust the pricing in different areas to what suits them
i wonder if sony imposed the restriction on MS that games have to be installed onto the HDD and can't be played off the blu-ray or if MS is the one that came up with that idea as part of this system to verify and block used games? probably the latter since blu-ray movies work normally (even offline) on the XBone
they have still yet to say if you can save that recorded file onto your hardrive and copy it onto a usb to edit on a pc. if you could do that you can easily edit all the players voices in if they were recorded separately. i hope they let you do that it would be fun for me to try out video editing software on pc using the footage recorded using the ps4 see how it turns out. would be impressive if they had an app on the ps4 that had simple editing capabilities.

well clock speeds havent been confirmed so we can't confirm the ammount of teraflops the XBone will be capable of it could get much worse if under clocking rumours are true or they can risk overheating the processor in favour of more power. anyways it seems like the way microsoft is trying to style it out is by claiming the "cloud" will provide extra power to your console which is absolute bullshit and even if it were true it would mean games that use this feature will require a...
@Raccoon
agreed i am a gamer i like games i enjoy playing online from time to time on a friday afternoon or whatnot but if i am going to have to deal with all this restrictions,bullshit and subscription fees i am not even going to bother will just get the next best thing. if sony does the same and playing on the next playstation becomes just as big a hassle i will just move to pc and so on. if there ever comes a point where to be able to enjoy and have fun with video games you will f...
yeah there was a lot of information in the description that wasn't on this site a good break down of the things wrong with this system
"CONFIRMED:
-24 hour DRM. (Console checks in once every 24 hours online)
-1 hour DRM if not using home console.
-Mandatory Kinect.
-No renting, no loaning. No private sales (unless selling to someone who has been on your friends list for 30 days)
-Internet connection required.
-Trade-in...
"MS are completely retarded if they think the xbone will take off." at this point i have no idea what MS is doing they don't seem to want to tell us either. with no one-on-one session with the press after E3 if this continues i wonder how many people will be tired of searching for answers and start to lose interest. most of the info journalist had to find out for themselves by interviewing microsoft employees or looking at the current facts available to reach a conclusion i mean...
yeah he is funny, you should watch his serious video when he is not making that voice and gives his actual thoughts not just a funny rant.
would be wonderful if the gaming community just trolls him for the next week and keeps asking derpy questions about smash bros.
twitter rage is an indirect way of publicly announcing something is annoying you only to receive a shitstorm of even more annoying tweets about the thing that was originally annoying you. it happens all the time i almost feel like a word needs to be invented to describe this occurrence
in terms of games,service and overall yeah 2013 is a good year for ps3 i think 2009/2010 is when things starting turning around for the better on ps3 so i would say that has been the best period in the ps3's life time. can't wait for this game i have been overcome by this sudden urge to play racing games, every gen there is an outstanding racing game that everyone has to try and i think this gen that will be gt6. i just noticed that for some reason i have missed all the odd numbered g...
they are still tweaking clock speeds if rumours are true they are still trying to balance cpu/gpu temps with performance. this esram 32mb thing that will increase bandwidth of ram is on the cpu itself not as a chip outside it and it takes up alot of the space on the processor that could have otherwise been used for a better gpu. the ps4 doesn't have this so more space for gpu hence the 1.84Tflops.MS are having some sort of issue with the esram yield or atleast this is the gist of what i g...
no, but when kinect is mandatory yes it does exclude and alienate a group of people. even if that group is small it is still ill advised to do so even more so when gaming means alot to people who need something to spend the time while bed-bound. i had an operation once and the nurses bought me an N64 with super mario64 on it it really made my day (everything was in japanese though so i spent 3 hours trying to find my way lol).
LOL the one about ducking behind cover will not work as kinect will not recognise you, pause the game and will ask you to stand within X meters of the camera. also why use a crash bandicoot pic on a kinect article? if there was ever a game that is synonymous with the playstation brand and the PSone it would be crash bandicoot
they should create a portal spin off built from the ground up with ps-move in mind because the amount of creative puzzles possible with it is endless. puzzle games are underrated really hope the witness is as good as it looks and sounds
money doesn't buy quality
they can't turn anything around if they don't confirm and/or deny the reports about drm,used games, gpu clock speeds etc... there are alot of talking points and confusion most of which was triggered by contradicting statements from MS if they don't deal with it at E3 these rumours and unconfirmed reports will only continue to manifest itself and rot away on the internet stealing attention away from what otherwise should be a games packed MS E3 conference.
news spreads fast...
i haven't got a clue how this got accepted it was reported so many time for so many valid reasons. i don't understand, what'ss the point of the submission system if one person can bypass it?
...non-replaceable or user serviceable 500GB HDD that you also have to install all your blu-ray sized games onto.
agreed with @AznGaara even if multiplats are made to look equal on both systems frame rate is one area ps4 will have the advantage like jonathon blow said there may be a situation where games are running at 60fps on ps4 and 30fps on xbone. it's way way too early to confirm any of this is true or just how much of an edge the ps4 will have but looking at the current confirmed info we have that appears to be a likely scenario. MS is still tweaking clock speeds it appears whether they reduce ...
well you can go offline for 24 hours so a bad internet day that lasts that long is a really bad internet day.
for me just the idea of the catastrophe that could possibly be caused if someone decides to hack MS is the most off-putting thing that means no one will be able to play any games for however long it takes to fix the problem. and i have a strong feeling someone who is annoyed by this DRM will go ahead and try i think its more than likely this will happen atleast once ...
