I am kind of 50/50 on this on one hand I am glad that MS has been humbled but, they have put out an awesome product. I think that they are being unfairly criticized and hated for nothing.
Biased gaming journalism and outright hatred is very unnesesarry.
Thanks for the link...I am strictly a console player so I don't care what comes to PC from consoles. Now if xbox "exclusives" where coming to nintendo and Sony platforms then I would feel like there is no real point to getting an xbox one. I feel like the only people that are making a big deal out of this is PC guys (who should actually be grateful) and Sony fans (even though they are not getting the games).
@mandf
LOL....I find it funny when you guys bring up this list of indies to validate that the ps4 has "more games". My cell phone has more games than both of the console put together but you will not see me or anyone else bragging about that or using it as leverage.
I also find it funny that you guys like to claim the ps4 has more exclusives right now but don't want to use that same logic when it comes to the 360 last gen. Using your logic means that ...

"MS receives skepticism, not hate, for cloud power talk"
I think its a little bit of both. People think that MS is lying about cloud possibilities, even though they have shown it working in demo's and even games today. The idea is in its infant stage right now.
"MS receives hate when their version of "thinking too far ahead" seems to result in anti-consumer policies"
D...
@giggman
You said it yourself in your own comment "The cloud is just a group of servers networked together for data storage and some computing to free up resources or space on a local device."
This is what MS says that the console will be able to do in the FUTURE, and we are already seeing a glimpse of it now with games like Titanfall Forza, and the Crackdown demo. So again....why do people think that MS is lying about this or that this is not possible in...
It's because it MS. MS is no stranger to this type of hate for thinking to far ahead. They received a lot of hate with their first xbox for having an ethernet port instead of a regular phone jack port. Can you imagine that?? LOL
Bubs up...well said.
I for the life of me cannot understand why people here think that the cloud is fake. "The cloud" is already being used right now, and a lot of people are already using it but don't realize it.
@starchild
This is what I have been trying to tell people for the longest, but everyone wanted to hate on the game because it was an xbox exclusive, the game has a familiar combat system with a GREAT story, and it looks amazing.
Wait...maybe I am missing something but don't games take up the same amount of HDD space if you buy digital or physical???
Start downloading some games my friend, the system is awesome fun.
On top of that, we still have not seen a new next gen exclusive from Sony that runs at 1080p 60fps either. MS at least has one game that runs at a native 1080p 60fps.
@internationterrorist
If Killzone could be ran at a native 1080p 60fps, would they really have to use a "special technique"? Besides that the game is not 1920x1080 full 1080p, Killzone is 960x1080.

I am not the one to focus on numbers, but this does specifically say worldwide. If I am not mistaking Patcher said MS outsold the ps4 in the US not worldwide.
@enjay
If it did it did, and I don't doubt that ps4 will outsell the xbox one for this entire generation, however there is a lot of playing with words here.
I see where it says the ps4 dominated in software sales in the US but not console sales. Patcher said the xbox one outsold the ps4 in ...
Out of all of those that you listed, MS needs to be taken off of that list. Xbox servers have not been down, and the friends list issue was fixed in a matter of hours same with the DDOS attack on MS servers.
I agree with you...I did purchase both, and while the ps4 is the stronger of the 2 I have to say the the xbox one is the more well rounded system. I will take a slight resolution hit for more features functionality, durability, and a stable network. The exclusive lineup isn't looking bad so far either.
@highlife
I never said this was a Shenmue article...I'm just saying that I don't go there to complain about games like league of Legends or Warcraft. I don't understand the appeal for those games but I hardly ever bring them up or put them down, obviously millions of people enjoy those games. Obviously people love shenmue and it has created such a buzz for a reason.
Yup...and the cool thing is that this was done while I slept. Didn't have to wait for anything!
@highlife
This game is almost 13 years old, a classic and was waaay ahead of its time. Shenmue is a story driven game which is probably why it looks boring to you. I like story driven games, if you don't then you probably wouldn't like this game. I think games like Warcraft are outdated, nerdy and boring but you will not find me in Warcraft articles complaining about it.
LOL...no matter how true this may or may not be.
You cannot tell fanboys that 1080p is not possible on the ps4. It makes them mad.
It should be apparent that with THIS GAME in particular, they couldn't do it. They had no problem with their not being parity with any of there other games, (watchdogs, black flag, trials) why would they now?? Just get over it guys, and stop trying to blame MS.
This hashtag should not be platform specific, it should apply to all. #nogamingparity
Totally agree with this...I love knowing that I dont have to wait for system updates to play my game....Its done while I am asleep or at work.
