Upper hand? Just because Microsoft showed all of their cards prematurely doesn't mean they have the upper hand.. How many of those games showed at E3 are actually releasing this holiday? Every single game Sony showed is releasing at launch or in the launch window.. Most of Microsoft's games were just videos, not actual in game footage.
We still don't know what Sucker Punch, Santa Monica, Japan, or Naughty Dog is developing for the PS4 yet.. Sony is just playing t...
Sony doesn't have to BUY exclusives. They own more first party studios than any of the big 3.
LOL I bought two as well thinking I'd do the same thing... Ohh well one for the living room and one for the bedroom I guess lol
@Pisquounet
May I remind you of all the shortcomings of the 360?
RROD which wasn't covered under the 3 year warranty for the first couple of years
no built in wifi
no hdmi port
still doesn't support 7.1 dolby digital surround
proprietary and expensive hard drives
can't use external hard drives
Hd-dvd bombed hard and the external hd-dvd drive cost $200 <...
Was anyone else shocked by the ending as well? It certainly didn't end where I thought it was going to or how. Then it suddenly ends. I'm assuming it ended the way it did to Segway into a sequel but I'm not sure.. I've just never had a game end the way it did..
Both of my local Gamestops sold out of pre-orders of the PS4 the day after Sony's E3 press briefing.
I pre-ordered one at Best Buy and one at Gamestop. Can't decide if I want to keep both or if I want to try and make some money on one by selling it on Ebay. hmmm either way I'm going to be one happy fella come November!
Ok 15,000 servers that only handled social interactio seeing as online gameplay was mostly handled via p2p console hosting... So now that millions of XBONE's(assuming they sell well) connected at the same time using the servers to do raw data calculation on top of the social aspects of live could cause issues.. Cant deny the possibilty
Personally I love my PSN ID. It's the only screen name that I have maintained for as long as I have In fact I use it on just about everything that requires a screen name like here on n4g for example. It's also my xbox live gamertag. But if that's what you want then I hope they do.
Sony confirmed a headset comes in the box with every ps4.. In fact the mics the guys are using in the video is the mic you receive. On another note im loving the new psn/ ui integration.. Sony learned lessons!
My question is what happens to the efficiency of this cloud computing when you have a large influx of users? 300,000 servers is a finite number especially if millions of people are online.. Remember the Live crashes every christmas? This all sounds like pr marketing pipe dreams to me
You could share digital games on ps3 with 5 ps3's without DRM.. But now all of a sudden its a brilliant move because Microsoft tells you that its cool.. That sums up the xbox crowd.. Blind loyalists..
@Jokes morgan blasted you for your blatant hypocrisy yet your response is to say well thats how I was like your previous transgressions are forgiven.. For years it was hell to be a ps3 gamer because "noble" gamers such as yourself prowled articles flaming and inciting.. Now that the favor is being returned the flavor is sour and you are attempting to distance yourself from it. Im sorry but your fanboy flag waves higher and brighter then just about anyone on here. Even though you att...
Amen influxity
@jokes so riddle me this genius how is it that it wasnt a problem for sony on the ps3? In fact sony has a higher software attach rate across the board. Just read an article how Sony sold over a million more software units over the course of this past fiscal year.. If DRM was so crucial to the survival of the industry then why is it that Microsoft is the only company implementing? One word. Control.
Its not about the advantages or lack thereof.. The issue is about it being forced everyone complies or you don't play. Just because you fall in the 1% of gamers that want a console like this doesn't mean it should be forced upon us.. We vote with our voices and dollars but you label us sony fanboys because we dont want a restrictive game experience for features that exist elsewhere with ZERO. restrictions.. I'm sick of Microsoft writing their own rules and then having to deal with...
. "Sony always says you don't need this and you don't need that but they always wind up coping the Xbox"
Ohh you mean like built in wifi right? Or what about HDMI? Removable/upgradeable hard drives? Ohhh I know you must mean Blu ray.. You're right because everything Microsoft does is for the good of the gamers... Man get lost with your "unbiased gamer" rhetoric...
@salt so you buy consoles just to let your friends borrow games? Of course this is a rhetorical question before you reply. I buy consoles to play the games i want to play. If a friend close by wishes to borrow a game then cool but being able to let a friend digitally borrow a game "200km" away is of no concern to me and judging by the uproar a lot of gamers agree. I'm not going to base a 4-5 hundred dollar purchase on such a trivial feature. Besides the restrictiveness of Micros...
I'm growing tired of this digital vs physical debate. Especially this cd to mp3 argument some are making.. Yes digital music is far more convenient but those reasons are not applicable to gaming. Let me clarify, with music you take it everywhere. In your car, work, exercising etc.. Carrying around one device that holds 1000's of songs is much more logical and convenient than 100's of CDs. Not to mention that you can buy just the songs you want instead of an entire cd for one or tw...
Me too.. I literally just finished a little over an hour ago.. Cant wait to play New Game+
