You are spot on. MS are willing participants though and thought Activision and EA would demand Sony did the same. Who knows? Maybe they did and Sony told them to jam it.

Doesn't include all the Ps4 Indie games. If Minecraft is down for XBOX then everything should be included.

MS better have an amazing E3 or the Xbox brand is in serious trouble. There would be a few execs not sleeping tonight I am guessing.

Not only is this move by MS/EA/Activision a way of controlling the used games market, it is also aimed at raising the price of new games. People don't realize this.

If you remove the attraction of buying cheaper second hand games by setting a higher price, then you leave the consumer with only one option and that is new games. Now that they have us by the balls people like Bobby Kotick know that they can lift the retail price for new games.

It's like ...

We can thank Activision for this. MS is in bed with them and they are the ones that have demanded this direction. Guaranteed.

It is crap about a 7 being a good score. With all the 9s and 9.5s handed out this gen for COD and the like, the scoring system is ruined.

Not 100% sure, but I would be surprised if it didn't work with ps4.

I wanted the game to be a surprise so didn't really watch videos or read up on it. The first level of the demo had me thinking I was right.

I loved the demo, at first I just thought it was uncharted in different clothes but I was wrong. The many different ways to clear an area were really well done. Like all Sony exclusives this is a day one for me.

Too bad if you want to rent a game off them though, with the DRM Xbox game rentals is a thing of the past. Lol

MS have already done the Kinect scam and screwed millions of people out of their cash. As soon as people see how important Kinect is to the new system they will say to themselves "why would I want another one? I barely used the last one"

Even Nintendo know that goose has been cooked and moved on, al be it to something just as useless to core gamers.

The new Xbox is another example of how MS do not innovate and always play catch up. Operating systems, phones, Zune, Apple TV etc etc

lol, 3 countries favour the Xbox over the PS4 and one of them is Iran.....hahahaha

Wow, didnt think about the rental market. Another nail in Blockbusters coffin.

Gone are the days when you try before you buy. Gee I hope Sony don't try and follow suit.

EA and MS is a match made in heaven. Together they are able to take great ideas and totally screw them up purely because they want to broaden the appeal. How many times have both companies done that?

Just develop a product this is great for one niche, not mediocre for multiple niches.

Dead Space anyone? Xbox One? Etc etc

To be fair, the tech is pretty good. Motion sensing games are not my thing but I do like the idea of using the Skype feature and talking to family overseas.

What a surprise! The journos that have been flown in to watch the event and showered with food and gifts love the show MS put on. Never would have guessed that.

At least I can be sure now that I will be getting a WiiU eventually as my second console. Thanks MS.

You can always count on MS to steal someone else's idea, make a name for themselves and look like they are going to lead the way with innovation, then screw it up by coming up with terrible ideas and trying to be everything to everyone.

Sony wants gamers and that is their focus. Smart.

I have been watching TV on my PS3 for 3 years. What's all the fuss about TV all of a sudden?

Fact is, the XBOX will have games and many of them will be good, but the always connected, forced Kinect, pre owned games scenario they are pushing onto people is going to hurt them bad.

Oh, and MS, people from all over Earth were watching the event, not just people from America. How dumb can they be?
