So many are making PSN+ seem like such a great deal. Most complained about Live. If it is such a great deal, why did so few have it before it became mandatory?
@Baka-akaB and your comment sounds like you know a lot. Maybe you have the ability to read a book and remember how some things work, but I have a feeling you lack vision or the ability to push technology forward. You're one of those let's stay in the cave, keep moving no food will grow from those seeds people.
@Kleptic
Well reasoned argument. But I think from the wording of some of the comments that MS has something different they are doing. And look...
Yeah it would definitely change the way MS will have to do some things. But the reality is those things will be op in on the Xbox as apposed to your cable company currently doing it and most had no idea they were. That DVR is not your Fathers cable box.
But way to go Godmars and turn into an fanboys vision of the true nature of the issue instead of looking at it for what it really is. This is another way the government pimps it's people and keeps them stupid. Get the foc...
Pretty sure I've read several times from people that are engineers and from people that make games saying that console CPUs don't have to be as powerful as desktop CPU to get the same results. Same for GPUs. There is a difference between a closed system and an open system. Also a OS made for a specific task instead of for everything.
Those that can, do. Those that can't, teach. And those that can't do either, write.

This is N4G. You're talking crazy talk.
Come on, you know the way they work is to pass the bill and then quietly gut a few months later. Gotta get people to at least think you work for them.
I don't need to read the article. I'm commenting on fake people that claimed it wasn't possible. That is until Sony says they could do it too. It's just like every other made up complaint.
MS makes you pay twice for your game because of charging for Live. Oh Sony's doing it too. It's not a big deal. I understand it cost a lot money to run servers and provide those services.
I like that game. No longer a Sony exclusive. It doesn't...
@DVAcme
Nobody is claiming anything you said isn't true. I know it is something you guys enjoy. And I'm not speaking on your behalf. And while this article may have legitimate reasons for expressing these opinions, the articles written on gaming sites are written by people who couldn't care less about people in the military. Most wouldn't know anything about what goes on outside of their playstations. They don't give a damn about you or any other serviceme...
3-4-5 you haven't thought through it. Your laptop camera can be hacked. Facebook is copying your information. And linking you with people you know even when you didn't initiate the process. Notice it often suggest you friend people you know. Your cellphone has GPS and the camera and mic can be hacked. You can cover your Kinect thinking it's your problem and your cellphone is recording everything while the NSA laughs at how bright you think you are.
MS has said sev...
Sorry Cueil, every president since Carter has been the same person. Some hide it better and all give the impression that they belong to one side or the other. But when it really comes down to it, they all work against the american people. And most members of congress too. Obama's policies are exactly like Bushes. Especially on privacy. Bush and Cheney and the idiots in congress made this start. Obama just kept it going.
But the stupidity of people thinking Microsoft is t...
Love the way people think $60 for a game that will provide hundreds of hours of fun if it has MP is overpriced. But those same people will buy a $12-15 movie ticket for 2 hours of a crap movie. Even though a AAA game will have a budget similar to a movie and will have no secondary markets. Maybe games should let you play once and then you have to buy it again on a DVD if you want to play it more.
So we've gone from the cloud being a marketing gimmick to it suddenly being a viable tool. I guess it doesn't exist until Sony says so. At least fosty is consistent.
Actually Steven he's pointing out that you are being asked to pay again for the MP you already paid for. Sony fans have made it clear that is paying for it twice.
@combatcash
You really don't realize that MS and Sony's used games policies are pretty much the same. It's up to the publishers. The only difference is that MS requires you to go to certain retailers because they want the developer to get some of the money. There's no reason for Gamestop to make more in profits then the developer. Jack makes it very clear.

So MS made billion in profits this generation and Sony lost billions. But you believe Sony won something. I would bet Sony would love to trade places with MS this gen.
@MysticStrummer
There's a saying that "Those that can, do. Those that can't, teach". I believe they should add "Those that can't do or teach become journalist".
And they get jobs at Eurogamer.
Folks technology moves forward because someone figures out ways to get get more out of what you have or a new way to do things. I doubt if anyone working at Eurogamer has any new ideas. They rely on a basic understanding ...
Muerte2494 don't let your blind love of Sony make you think Sony invented the world. Pretty soon some of you guys will be saying....on the seventh day, playstation created the...There have been tons of games that allowed gamers to make their own versions or mods. Falcon 4.0 is a computer games from the 90's that was still around a few years ago because the community kept it going long after the developer was gone. Age of Empires allowed you to make additional maps. God games from the ...
Quantum Break was the Best in Show for graphics to me. That game looked amazing.
@Ashlen
There won't be anymore BC problems on consoles. There won't be for Wii because it will probably be the same parts updated. But this is most likely the last console MS and Sony will make. Streaming will be the future. This generation was 8 years. The next will be more and by the time they will be comfortable being streaming services.
Funny you never see anyone say Sony paid someone off or see Sony spelled with a money sign.....Is what I might say if I didn't read the business section.
