As we've already learned, you can cut Sony's hype in half to see what the end product will be like. For Microsoft, you can usually quadruple their hype to see what the end product will be like.
Every time I look at the new XBOX ONE I begin to realize how focused on future-proofing that Microsoft is. They were correct in sacrificing a little now to gain more for the gamers down the road. A+ decision.
The XBOX 360 has already been pumping out HD in 60FPS. I think the PS4 can catch up but, by then, what barriers will the XBOX ONE have already broken down? We have an exciting year ahead of us!
That article was written BEFORE verification was done. Nice try though... It's confirmed, accept it, the *real* XBOX ONE was used at E3.
Exactly.. All they care about is making the sale, unfortunately. They don't care about the backlash of complaints afterwards. The Last of Us is suffering now, like Dishonored, but the company already has their money thanks to false advertising.
That it's hype was just a bunch of very well placed marketing including paid critic reviews.
Microsoft's transparency is a great step forward in helping gamers get what they truly want from the industry. It's about time gamers are treated as important instead of mules like other gaming companies treat them as.
The PS4 is definitely sinking fast. I'm really worried that insane hype and failure of the PS3 is happening all over again. Can Sony recover? I'm sure it can hold second place over Nintendo but it looks like Microsoft's death grip on the industry is about to grow stronger.
I'm really disappointed in Sony. Dev kits are known to be well over powered and much easier to develop for. What a sham! As for Microsoft, its been confirmed the games actually were running on retail version of the XBOX ONE, so this article should remove the false info mentioned Windows 8.
This is excellent news and moves us closer to fully protecting the industry. The more we can protect then the more we can be entertained by it.
Like 'Dishonored', the truth about 'The last of us' is coming out quickly. Expect the price to drop even more.
The games were running on an XBOX ONE, this was confirmed by several independent investigators. Get rid of this article. Several critics also noticed they were shocked how quiet and cool the XBOX ONE runs. Hidden power not yet unleashed? Probably!
Well I didn't, and I pre-ordered two XBOX ONE's for myself and for any visitor at my house.
So... Guilty as charged!
Eek, I hope they change a lot about it before release. Not cool!
The Last of Us was definitely an overhyped debacle. It rivals what happened to 'Dishonored' and the strange, unwarranted, hype that surrounded that game. I'm not saying the Last of Us isn't worth playing but it's definitely not a must-buy and does not at all beat out all other games released in June. If a gamer can't afford to buy all games I strongly suggest then pick another game when looking for entertainment. Sony really dropped the ball on this one.
It has been recorded and verified that Sony has given out incentives for voters to vote in its favor. Microsoft is relying on actual fans. This is important to keep in mind when reading those vote results...
Insiders have already said the glitches were console issues and completely surprised Sony.
That's exactly my point. The PS3 fooled everyone in 2006 and look how the walls crumbled. Now its 2013 and people are making the same mistake with the PS4.
Few other countries have quality internet anyways. Microsoft needs to just focus on the US, which it seems they are doing. The rest of the world should stick with the PS4 which is more an everyday-person console and not necessarily for true hardcore gaming.
This is exciting!!! I'm glad I waited on my preorder. I don't expect the PS4 to really be used much since I'll have the higher-end XBOX ONE as well, but the PS4 exclusives make the extra console purchase worth it.
Woohoo
