You comparing voice controls to Wi-Fi+BD-playback+an advanced processor(CELL obviously) is pure comedy. Keep up the good work. Laughing my ass off as I'm writing this.
QFT!
Still having to make an initial setup online is bad. Online is still required initially.
It's a good day for gamers and consumers but MS did this ONLY because they had to. Same as extending the warranty of x360. There is no thanking MS for this.
Only thing this does is postpone things from MS's pov. They want to strap you down and suck your life out like a friggen demon lol. People wasn't ready for that yet. Online payments is now the norm so that...
@ jazz
MS would've NEVER EVER allowed sharing of games between 10 people.
LOL @ nacho
MS would've NEVER EVER allowed sharing of games between 10 people. NEVER EVER in a million years!
If Sony can't have 5 people sharing games how the hell would've MS managed to do it between 10? LOL even IF (and that's a big if) MS would've gone forward with this it would've taken them probably about 2 months and they would've been forced to change it. People always abuse stuff like this. happend with 5 people sharing on...
I'm kinda dissapointed in this (this is the first time I hear about this). Yes i thought that DC would be the full game since this mandatory PS+ is now "forced" on people instead of a free online gaming. I thought it was Sony's way of mellowing down the impact. Tretton said it on stage so I assumed it was a big deal but a stripped down game is not a big deal imo. Not that big anyway. I'm a little dissapointed tbh. Nothing major but still.
Facepalm is all that I can muster up after reading your comment partially.
Just be quiet please.
Well since it was the x360 people who laughed at PS3 for the lousy ports it got and used LOT it is guaranteed that we will hear all about PS4's better graphs. Ain't payback a bi*ch?
My god you are butthurt. Since when are xblg and PS+ the same? Playing for online play? Listen kid I'd buy a service like PS+ 10 times over xblg. hell I'm a plus member even though when I signed up we didn't know about it being mandatory for PS4's online gaming. THAT'S how good a service PS+ is.
You crying over double standards (it seems) is just pathetic. PS+ is in no way the same as xblg. If it was you would be onto something. Right now though you come o...
FFS all these BS articles. Give me games. If you don't give me games year after year after year you suck. X360 sucks for this very reason. They gave me games and after 2009 they didn't do that anymore outside the same tired old franchises (all 3 of them btw).
The way Sony does and always has done things is it leaves no room for competition. With all the time management skills I have I manage to play maybe 30-40% of the games that I'm interested in. After 2009 it&#...
@justastranger10
All I see is people saying they would've preferred the online to stay free and that the desicion Sony made does not sit right with them but hey, let's not count them at all and just say everyone loves to pay online now for sh*ts and giggles right?
here are some actual quotes:
"but the fact of the matter is the choice has been taken away from gamers, just doesn't sit right with me"

Ummm.... BD players were about 1000 dollars back then and YES BD is an essential part of the GAMING experience so....
@dedicated
Thank you for the correction. It's unbelievable how people have spun the things Sony said back then. Imo the weren't even that arrogant. Just your typical PR talk.
Kutaragi with his Karate master talk was in the same class as this "stick with the x360". The difference however is and was that Sony targeted MS with their talk, MS targets their fanbase. Imo it's atleast 1000 times worse o talk down on your fanbase than it is to d...
Well considering that retail games on XBone are in essance exactly the same as DL games I find this price a dissapointment. This was the one thing where MS could've done good on all the DRM BS and all. Had they made games cost 40 dollars or something and people would've been more forgiving to MS's new policies.
But no....sigh....Oh well perhaps the sales will prove them not to do stuff like this. I hope so.
I can see this being a problem for someone who ONLY play COD but to any 'normal' gamer being a plus member is a no brainer.
Don't even bother with this BS x- fans. With xblg you've paid only for online gaming for years. If online gaming was all what ps+ gave us then you would see the same exact outrage for it. No hypocrisy whatsoever.
@ausbo
Well people are not paying to play online with PS+. It's not the same as xblg has been for years. Do you even know how many games Sony gives us with plus? I am and would continue being a plus member with or without online play included in the pricetag. It's THAT good.
Once you dl the free games they are your forever as long as your membership is paid for. My backlog of games exploded after joining PS+. The games keep piling up and I have no wa...
You really think people in Asia care about XBone?
I will be surprized if XBone breaks a thousand sold in MC per week once a month has passed from launch in Japan.
Yeah the only problem they WILL have is keeping up with the demand for PS4. I hope you launch this beast ww in 2013. Don't make us europeans wait again. There shouldn't be a problem aquiering the components for PS4 so keep the factories pumping out PS4s so we can all enjoy it this holiday season Sony. That's an order!
Jill? Jill Valentine is that you?
@ david
" a company that defends something (DRM restrictions) to their last breath by stating it's good and needed, to then change it because they see it won't make them as much money. "
That's the definition of MS. Remember how HDMI or 1080p wasn't needed? Remember how it was all about games until Wii skyrocketed? Then it was all about Kinect -_-.
MS has no backbone whatsoever and I will never support them until the...
