Stop. Just. Stop. They changed the requirement. They didn't lie.
No. No SKU without Kinect. This is absolutely perfect. Everybody gets Kinect, so developers can make features assuming 100% adoption, and you don't have to plug it in if you don't want to.

"Millions of Playstation gamers have not found the value of PS+. If they didn't want to subscribe with all the free games, how is forcing them to subscribe in order to play online something they won't mind?"
This this this this this. Nobody can argue that PS+ isn't a great value. You get free game, discounts, exclusive content etc. However, and this is something that many people on N4G will never want to see, not everyone wants it...

"No, it shouldn't be held to current standards. It's not a "new" game. It's the same game we played years ago."
Sure, it's the same game that *WE* played years ago, but what about people who didn't? This is a 20 year old game that has a style that may not gel with people whose tastes are different than ours were 4 console generations ago. It has to be graded as a current game and in relation to its peers. Th...

My PSN ID is creatchee (shocking, I know).
EDIT: here is a link to what happens when somebody tries to chat without a PS Eye. I just took the picture a few minutes ago:

I own a PS3, and there is no voice chat in the XMB or in the OS in general. There is video chat, but that is completely different and requires a PS Eye, which is definitely not free. There is also chat in games, but surely you don't think that is what I'm talking about.
Maybe so many people agreed with me because I am correct? And I seriously doubt that they're all Xbox fanboys.
PS3 users can't even voice chat with each other. How the hell can they chat with PS4 users?
@Hicken
Soooooo much wrong with what you're saying, but I'll just address this gem:
"Nothing was ever quietly removed, particularly nothing I paid for. The ONLY thing some could point to is OtherOS, and even that wasn't forcibly removed, as you had the option to keep that feature."
Yes, you had the option of keeping that feature... if you never wanted to play any games that came out after that point OR never wanted to co...

"If a smaller\internal power brick is that important to you, buy a PS4."
Actually, you could simply this even further:
If __________ is that important to you, buy a PS4.
However, people forget that they have OPTIONS and instead decide to whine all day about something that they aren't required by law to buy in the first place.
But some are just fanboys who would still find something to co...
Not exactly - friends' Gamertags needed to have XBOX Live Gold to play multiplayer as that gamertag instead of a guest on your 360 if they visited. Now, only the person whose console you are playing on has to have Gold for both of you to log in. This means that there will no longer need to be guests in multiplayer matches (example: creatchee and creatchee_1 becomes creatchee and ActualFriend'sGamertag).
Also, if you have Gold and log into a friend's console who do...
I can only hope that they're doing it for the attention because anybody who says the crap they say and actually believes it obviously has some mental or emotional defect.
Oh, this is awesome news! They're making an Ocean's 11-like development supergroup and they've already got their George Clooney!
PS: Maria or Morganfell (although the latter is around a lot less these days)
Xbox: George
PC: all of them lol
@ShugaCane
I guess all games that aren't free-to-play are cash-ins then?
I'm about to get into my cash-in car and go buy a cash-in lunch. The free-to-drive and free-to-eat models aren't available in these parts.

"Lol people here have no clue of what they're talking about!!
First of all, do some research on how much space a 4k movie takes and then think of how much space a game would take AND know that ANY HDMI cable is good for 4k. THEN realize that it's just another one of Microsoft's PR bullcrap talks to make everything look "AMAZING" lol"
Well, in terms of people not knowing what they're talking about...
@Bruce_Wayne
"I don't see how the fact that Titan Fall won so many awards justifies how powerful the Xbone is."
The point is that power is merely a tool. A great game is a great game, regardless of how much of whatever kind of RAM it uses, and which console it uses it on.

"Relax. We're talking about the Xbox one headset not ten reasons why Xbox has a better headset than Sony. Relax."
Every move that Microsoft makes is nitpicked to death by Sony fanboys on N4G and relentlessly claimed to be inferior to something that Sony does.
Turnabout is fair play.
I probably have 3 to 1 multiplats to exclusives on my 360 and 3 to 1 exclusives to multiplats on my PS3. I do own way more games on my 360 though. If you want to see the actual numbers, have at it!

I definitely can't wait to own both. I've chosen to get the One at launch because I really want Dead Rising 3 and my friends will be getting Ones. However, PS4 early next year when inFamous Second Son comes out! I hope they have a cool bundle!
I've said it before and I'll say it again - Xbox one could be 10 times more powerful than a PS4, cost 50 bucks, have the most fun games ever released, and give you free, amazing, on-demand sex.
And people would still complain.
