BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY
M$ play a dirty game. They force devs to make other consoles versions just as crap as the 360 versions. That's why only the first party software on the PS3 really shines. Expect this crap to continue next gen...
Here's what you need to know:
The 720 will have always on DRM
You will be forced to pay and play with Kinect
You will continue to pay for online and apps that are free everYwhere else.
Microsoft will shove even more adverts down your throat.
The next XBOX will be a weaker system than the PS4.
The 720 will have less exclusives than the PS4.
The forcus will not be on games like the PS4 and Wii U but rather other entertainmen...
Won't the PC overtake the PS4 by 2015?
Won't PC gamers be held back again by the consoles in a just a few short years?
It matters. I want to see what I plan on buying. If it looks crap it won't be a deal breaker though.
I brought an orginal xbox.
2. Go Frak yourself?
No joy for 720 or Wii U developers
According to rumours the 720 will have:
1. A constant online connection mandate
2. Kinect 2
3. No trade ins
4. Less power than the PS4
5. Less IP's than the PS4
6. No backwards compatibility
7. Higher online gaming fees
8. More dashboard adverts
M$ need to come out from the closet and show what they got. People are worried their running scared!
What if M$ included 10GB of DDR3 RAM?
How would THAT compare to Sony's 8GB of DDR5?
Backwards compatibility with 360 AND the original xbox via streaming.
I've lost trust in M$.
I won't be buying the 720 no matter how good it seems initially. They betrayed me this gen by switching to a casual focus. I loved the original xbox and the 360 for the first 3 years, the last 5 have been hell.
I pay for xbox LIVE but have a horrible looking dashboard filled with adverts. The only IP they have is Halo, forza, and gears and I don't even like them!
PS4 all the way!
Wii Who?
I hope it does. Would make for a cracking launch title.
M$: We have another (insert Fable/gears/halo/Forza title) for you and a ton of apps you can get everywhere else for free.
Sony: We have the most powerful gaming console on the planet and ton of new IP's starting with Beyond.
Sony has M$ running scared. The 20th is fast approaching, the world is waiting...
I won't be buying the 720
I want to trade in my games, I don't want Kinect 2, I don't want dashboard adverts, I don't want to pay £40 for Xbox LIVE.
I want a GAMING system that supports and stands by its loyal customers. I want a ton of first party NEW IP's. I want free online multiplayer, I want a repliable launch system...
I WANT PLAYSTATION 4!!!!!!!!!!!
I disagree.
I hate achievements.
I love to play games because I enjoy them. If you need achievements its because you are
A. Insecure
B. A child
C. A chav
Stop turning this into a PS3 fanboy VS xbox fanboy flame war.
The TRUTH is simple. M$ has destroyed the xbox brand and fanboys are too stupid to see it. Stop defending a crap console. Its not why you brought the console to begin with and you know it.
I hated the PS3 in 2006 and loved the 360. I've switched around. I see clearly and unblinkered - why can't you?
Master Chief.
Never removes his helmet when he enters a building. Impolite I say.
Dammit! I was really looking forward to this game. Guess I'll pick up Far Cry 3 instead now.
DON'Y BUY IT PEOPLE!
