Gamers know it is for games. Average consumers though know that the more you offer then the bigger the sale base.
The more systems you get into homes the more chance you have for sales to go towards that system.
@sengoku
Due to ratings by customers. XBox fans care less about rating down the PS4 then PS fans caring to rate down the XBox.
If you think about it... whether we like it or not we are already getting used to the no resale and DRM games.
Online digital sales are basically that. Any game bought and downloaded is non-resale and DRM.
Steam is just that too.
We are already living it and a huge amount of sales is happening today that has no re-sale value or shareable option.
Fanboy control.

Check again then. Already been stated that connection is not required. http://www.polygon.com/2013...
And I do connect to the internet for free with my kids. They have many Arcade games and Indie games they purchased with points on XBL. But they don't have a pay account.
They can also download DLC and many other t...
@joeorc
Listen to yourself.
The point is not wether MS or PS3 is going to win or which is more powerful. The point here is that he stated "Microsoft admits they lost the console war with Xbox One" which they did not in any fashion. he might think they are going to lose... but in no way. Zero, Nil, did MS come out and hold a press conference to say they were admitting defeat. It just didn't happen.
Did Nintendo admit defeat when...
Not sure there will be a PS4 BETA....
And if you are a PS3/PS4 player then what is to say they won't then be left out of the game itself?
What is the reasoning behind the exclusion of Ps3 Asia players from the Beta?
@joeorc
The title... "Microsoft admits they lost the console war with Xbox One" a totally false statement that Yim tries to make you believe by a few words here and a few MS decisions there.... but not a single truth to the fact that MS has admitted losing before the game started. It is bull shit. Regardless of what some of the hardware specs present the story itself is bullcrap.
@colonel179
The point is none of it is very clear and it all is a speculative mess right now.
I am sure MS is on the wall on which direction they will take heir move? Not having fully jumped into the 'we are doing this' stage yet. just giving out feelers to people saying... this is what we expect from the system.
They still have an option to not have any required connection at all in the end. But we won't know for sure until it g...
Why is that?
Funny... Sony said the same thing about the other CoD games... and still the Xbox 360 ran the CoD games better. Shocker.
So where is the confirmation of DRM/Always online?
He says "So in the absence of any internet connections you are going to be able to play Bluray movies and there are likely going to be some game modes that you are going to be able to continue to play."
And this was in answer to the question of a game that is purely single player based.
Leo Yim is saying that Xbox has already lost the console war with Xbox one... NOT Microsoft.
Totally speculative interpretation of events at the reveal that have been turned into some false claim that Microsoft has bowed out before the players have hit the field.
The web sight is called http://semiaccurate.com/ for a reason. They don't care about being correct.
Best way to sell in japan. Don't market it to them. tell them they can't have it, make them know it is something that is not common in Japan... and they will import it.
So no XO for Xbox One?
Misleading title... and NOT an accurate article.
The official SONY quote is "“Play your favorite PS4™ games on your PlayStation®Vita’s beautiful 5-inch display using Remote Play.” and does NOT state you can play ALL titles.
EDIT: and what kind of poor writing is this? "Have this time now come..." really? I am thinking that 'dFUSE' has never taken an English Lit course? Because the rest of the article is as poorly written.
Their weak list:
10. Lobster Johnson (Dark Horse Comics)

Mainly due to the fact of people doing exactly what this boy did which was throw themselves at the mercy of the court in efforts to not have a lengthy trial. And knowing they will get little but house arrest and slaps on the wrist.
And the 99% rate is highly exaggerated.

Your links proved nothing. The second was only opinionated advice on the first.
When getting rid of a computer it is common practice to destroy hard drive. The damage to the cases themselves... well haven't we all been pissed off with our PC enough to want to do that?
Him being questioned and then later wanting to dispose of his PC does not constitute evidence tampering. Especially if said practice of destroying HD is common pl...
I really thought it was going to be so much more from the hype for it.
But looking at the demo it appears to be little more then an upgraded 'Alone in the Dark' game.
I would think the story would be the only saving point... but not seeing anything from the Demo itself.
