The original PS3 20GB model never came with wi-fi either. So get your facts straight. What does Wi-Fi have to do with multiplat games and this article about which console set the standard for them?
"The reason why we didn't hear about the weakness of the ps2 when compared to the xbox is because this generation pretty much created and divided the gamers, regardless of what you say you always have a preferred console even if you have all 3."

Why are you always so negative outside of what Sony is doing, DragonKnight? One can also create a multi-media centered PC just like how those can create a surround sound HDTV console experience. What you also neglect is that PC gaming can be just like console gaming. With a controller and connected to your TV that you already own.
Not if all publishers start implementing it. Sony has already adopted online passes so we are already half way there.
If Logic asked questions about the upcoming Xbox it is highly unlikely DragonKnight would be calling him a negative Nancy. In fact DragonKnight has been nothing but negative towards the upcoming Xbox. It is fair to ask questions on both systems.
I too want to know what is going to happen with my digital library. Will my Plus membership carry over? Will Sony allow dual consoles linked to my PSN ID at the same time? How much will the PS3 be? There are still many questions left ...
Then obviously the power didn't matter then now did it? So why care now? The PS3 and Xbox 360 are too close to really matter anyways. You see way more differences with the Wii on one end and the PC on the other.
If the specs for the PS4 and next Xbox are accurate then it's not going to matter that much again but I'm sure we;ll still see all the bickering between the fanboys going at it once again while they still ignore the PC.
That's why they are called options, not everyone had to buy a wi-fi adapter or the HD-DVD add-on. The same thing with the PS2, not everyone had to buy the hard drive, the 4 player support add-on or the broadband connector.
It's amazing how things turned around. The PS2 was the weaker system compared to the Xbox and many didn't seem to care. Yet for 7+ years we kept hearing about how the PS3 was more powerful and how much that mattered. If people are really concern...
"It is funny that the best selling game on the PS3 is COD"
Not surprising. Japan is not Sony's largest market, Europe and North America are. The shooter genre has exploded and largely due to the popularity of online gaming which again is way more popular outside of Japan on consoles. Then when you see most games being the same on both the PS3 and Xbox 360 and playing very similar to one another it isn't very surprising. What is surprising is how many still t...
Do we really know how much control the player will have though? It's hard to follow a structured path if they allow the gamer to be free flowing. David Cage wants games with emotion and hard choices. To do that he needs to pull the strings and limit what the gamer is allowed to do. We still aren't at the point of learning A.I. That is why games like Mass Effect create an illusion that you are making all of these choices. Or even The Walking Dead. In reality there are only certain scen...
It is kind of sad but that seems to be Microsoft's intent, to partner itself with well known hits and try and persuade consumers into thinking it's best played on their console.
I can see why Microsoft did this on the Xbox 360. They were huge underdogs during the PS2 generation and saw all of those games come on the PS2 and many skip the Xbox. The ones that did come out on both sold much better on the PS2. Sony also used GTA as a timed exclusive game which really hel...
You're right, some are questionable. Here's my breakdown on what they listed:
1. People like the weekly updates because they know that is the day to check what's new. That could be remedied with a better what's new category but I still like the weekly updates. They just need to have it on a timely fashion.
2. Agreed
3. Don't care
4. Don't care. Just have a discount area.
5. Sure
This is actually quite a concern of mine. How is Sony going to transfer over to the new generation? I am a Plus member and if my subscriptions runs past the PS4 release date what happens with my PSN ID if I want to set it up on my new system? Will Sony allow both the PS3 and PS4 to be linked together on my one account? Will my Plus subscription carry over to the PS4? Will all of my Trophies and store bought items carry over to the PS4?
It's becoming a larger issue now tha...
What does Xbox fans have to do with this topic? Nothing. Like the others have mentioned, get a life. You contribute nothing to the community other than your resentment Microsoft has eaten into Sony's once dominated market.
Heavy Rain has shown risks can pay off. That is the focus here. Not your childish antics of always trying to drag the competition into everything. The moderators need to get rid of people instead of just letting them fester at 1 bubble. At that point th...
From my own experience, and again this is only me, I prefer my gaming at home on a big screen with surround sound. To me that is heaven. That's the pinnacle of gaming to me. A handheld by comparison is secondary. A device that I can play games in short bursts or if I am away from home and have some time to play a game. This is why tablets and smartphones have eaten into this market. It's just easy to pack around a smartphone and it's always with you when you're not at home. It...
Hope so, and crossing my fingers most of them are not Kinect games.

You care. Otherwise you wouldn't bother commenting. Obviously consoles have their pros and so do PC's. backwards computability, software pricing and mod support naturally have the upper hand to console gaming. Exclusives, ease of use and a unified install base have their benefits on consoles.
I love the term PC elitists yet how many times do we see the arguments about how console A has 1 more polygon than console B? Or how this console exclusive looks so much better o...

That is true. The media is partially to blame for the way fanboys act on forums. We don't need this endless product A is better than product B style of journalism where we have to have a winner and a loser.
I don't hate them, I just don't want to be forced to like them. We should have choices and by having a monopoly on some sport games and by only offering some PC games through Origin they are not giving consumers an option to compare.
EA needs to ask themselves why people prefer Steam over Origin. Why do people not want to sign into EA servers when they play on consoles? Why is EA charging to unlock cheats? Why did they have DRM in SimCity? There are many questions the...
The headline is nothing more than to generate hits. It doesn't explain anything about the other systems.
"I’m really not interested in the other next gen boxes, no matter the rumored specs and the hype. I like Nintendo’s games and their philosophy about keeping game development a self-sustainable enterprise, rather than something that’s mainly just profitable for the mega-conglomerates who can afford it."
That's all he really says. Article i...
