I wondered how long a simple title like 'More Demo's on Xbox One' would degenerate into DX12, Cloud Compute, PS4 competition... and other totally irrelevant things that have nothing to do with 'DEMO's' !!
OT
Bring on the demo's Phil Spencer! Phil is integral to making X1 a better proposition :)
I'm afraid the author forgets.... Sony 'IS' entertainment!
Sony have exclusive TV shows in development for PS4, and could easily cater to media services much more than MS could if they so wanted to.
Why?
Well, because Sony own Movie, Music and TV studios. Sony even benefits from royalties from MS for using Blu Ray tech. I don't understand how Xbox One has an advantage in this regard?
Don't get me wrong, I ...
This article is from a site called microsoftproductreviews.com
I don't expect them to be biased.........

Yet after that extensive essay, you are in fact yourself, interacting in the very same comments section you claim is 'an argument over who's console is better'??
You show yourself as a hypocrite telling folks how to manage their time, when you're wasting yours in here writing essays (without paragraphs) that preach to people.
If you're really ashamed to be a gamer, you could take up landscape gardening and refrain from the world of N4G ;/ ...
Okay, by your logic and those that share the same opinion, X1 being in just 14 territories should mean a complete sell through for MS, since they don't have to struggle with production?
But, No!
...X1 is readily in stock wherever available, with over 1 million in surplus units, because since the initial launch, consumers aren't in a rush to by them!
This 14 territories VS the 45 (or so) territories you mentioned Sony are in is utterly...
The battery life is extended by 81 minutes if I dim it?
Wait!
...I'll be right back :)
I hope they do release DS4 with better battery life soon, 'cos I'm gonna go buy me another DS4, but I'd rather wait until new one's are out :)
edit
@ziggurcat
Maybe Shu meant the light dimming would not be a significant enough power saving to the DS4 for Sony to go into PR mode about it ;/
I strongly disagree with the article, not because it is beyond the realms of possibility, but because the arguments 'for' are uncompelling, and more wishful than anything.
TBH, when I saw the title, I was expecting something profoundly interesting...instead I found a desperate fanboy-esque yarn Zzzz.
Another few moments of my life miss-spent ;/
Lulz, I agree folks shouldn't troll PC articles, especially being that they have zero interest in MODS or the PC scene.
Those screens look awesome, way above anything I've seen on X1 or even PS4.
BTW, I play on consoles, not gaming PC's. I'm only here because I (still) love Skyrim.
...no offence taken though :)
I agree, I own both...
I plan on just buying Xbox One exclusives, and I will buy multi-plats/exclusives for PS4.
Just like last gen when everyone who owned both consoles were only buying PS3 exclusives, but fully supporting 360 when it came to multi-plats and it's own exclusives.
I think it's only fair, given that PS4 is now lead :)
Xbox One is at around 4.0M (sold to consumers) and PS4 is at around 7.4M units globall...
That's an awesome impression of Mister X or whatever his (exaggerating lying butt) name is...
I'm actually surprised by you KNWS. I've read some awesome comments from you in the past, but this latest comment of yours nullifies most of them.
I love playing my Xbox One, but no way is MS holding some secret sauce. That's just plain ridiculous! Can't you just be happy with your Xbox One as it is now? Or is the pointless hope of these 'unkn...
@jlo
What you typed is mildly reminiscent of a bad joke...
What the hell has PC got to do with this article? This is about consoles, and being a multi 'Console' platform owner, I mention my other consoles sometimes (where relevant IMO), even if it is not directly about them.
But you seem like an advocate of PC hardware, and there's nothing wrong with that at all, it's just that I don't see a connection.
Y...
Awesome that MS appear to have learnt a lesson in hardware longevity with this announcement that the SDK for 360 is being improved also :)
This with the PS3 SDK improvements being made too! Totally awesome that the older kids on the block still have a future going forward :)))
Yet another Android gaming device....
This market is so over saturated, it is in danger of eroding itself.
Handhelds aside, I never understood the appeal of playing 'Mobile' games on a living room TV???
I mean, isn't the whole idea of Mobile Gaming based around not being at home?
Yup, I'm consistently having this issue. I have to manually upload each save file myself. My friends list is riddled with errors too!
Total bummer!
Expedite a fully tested 1.71 and fix this!!
Ok thnx :)
Ok, so Neversoft/Infinity Ward are merging...
But what of Treyarch? ...is this studio dead? Will there be no more Black Op games?
Why is it so quiet on the Treyarch front?
Hmmm...strange times ahead me thinks ;/
Hey, I'm sorry if you feel I offended you. That was totally not my intention. I could have chosen my wording a 'lil better, apologies.
I play Xbox One and I'm prepared to accept MS did things a little strangely this gen. I own PS4 and Wii U also, and believe me they are not perfect systems either. Sony's latest update has caused my PS4 bugs for example lol
..And you must not think me lame, at least I don't feel lame (Lol), I have no troubl...
Say what you like about the PS3 Cell SPU units being overly complexed.
...it was because of the complexity of the CELL, developers were able to continually squeeze more performance out of the PS3.
Sadly we won't see the same (incremental) strides as last gen, because both MS & Sony went with X86 CPU's, which are widely known and understood. Therefore easy to max out performance due to this commonality.
I'm not implying we won...
It would be easier for me to list 'What's Bad about Xbox One'.
For me, it's just one thing, it's 'Form Factor' is butt ugly!!
I look forward to the day when the inevitable X1 mark 2 is released somewhere down the line.
