Kudo, talk about all the good things Microsoft are working on but don't trash talk because this just sets a bad example to the fanboys.

O'Donell was treated horrendously. The worst part is the betrayal he must feel from old friends and protégés testifying against him. But he has been vindicated and I hope he is able to move on without feeling too much bitterness.

That E3 conference! Some of those videos of fans reacting to the megatons are amazing.

Whilst I agree with @suckineggs that if you can afford it get all consoles. I have to say that so far this generation there has not been a lot of standout games to separate PlayStation and Xbox One. Sure there are the Bloodbornes and Titanfalls, but the majority of releases have has been third party. It's becoming prohibitively expensive for true exclusives. So in my humble opinion whilst both PS4 and XBO have each some nice unique games there is no need to own both - yet!

Totally iffy.
I want waste my time ripping it all to shreds but saying Wii U will be main home console in 2016 then saying NX will release in 2016 (or 2017) which would make it the main console,

Saying res will be 540p?! Just complete and total guesswork that doesn't make sense.

The article by Jamie Feltham at VR Focus is fundamentally bias into attempting to create negative feeling toward PlayStation. It could have said Sony is offering a 'special reward' for PS Plus subscribers. Instead he wrote 'preferential treatment' which implies improper conduct.

It's little subtle differences in wording which reveal a 'journalist's' preferences.

Jimmy Kimmel made a comment and has since received an avalanche of insults and threats from some silly people on the internet. If it was a woman who had made the same comment and received the same abuse, then politically motivated websites like Polygon and Kotaku would be shouting 'industry mysogyny' from the rooftop!

Time for them to realise that people on the internet intelligently disagreeing with a gamer woman, or even aggressively disagreeing does not prove myso...

£130?
ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY ENGLISH POUNDS?
That's crazy. Considering I backed the Kickstarter and helped make the game happen I think David Braben has some cheek. He must be looking at Star Citizen and coverting their money. Even a full priced game like Batman Arkham Knight with the Season Pass or Call of Duty with all the DLC cost less. What a way to milk the people who have paid for your game. I think this spacecraft will be crashing back down to Earth.

So Phil Spencer repeatedly says Xbox is not competing with PlayStation (of course it is they are both trying to sell to the same gamers). But then Microsoft say things like 'bullish' which is fighting talk!

Why has there been a rush of established and no-name websites making definite statements in their article title about how the console will lead the market? It's quite interesting that they talk in abstract terms 'making waves' and never definite terms like 'will sell more!'

Not a lot of exclusive indie games on Wii U because “we don’t throw around cash.”

Investing in small indie studios is a good thing which has led to some modern classics including Limbo, Journey, Braid and Thomas Was Alone. These games wouldn't have existed without Microsoft and Sony funding.

In all fairness though Phil Spencer's answer might be to that specific question about that month and that name. Maybe there is an 'Xbox Micro' coming out in November!

I have a lot of respect for Amy Hennig - and gratitude. She was a major creator in one of my favourite modern game series. But even without her input I'm sure that Uncharted 4 will be just fine. Actually it will be great. Technically it is already outstanding. The Last of Us writers are on story duties so you couldn't ask for a better team.

The new fashion in the games' media is to be negative about a game before having played the full game. Is the first such piec...

"it isn't humanly possible with the naked eye to see the difference between 1080P and 900P"! - Mike Boccherini Gamezone.

Ha ha! Where do they find these people? Just because he doesn't want to believe that his favourite console may be visually disadvantaged he makes a sweeping statement about what is scientifically possible for the eye to see! Excuse me Boccherini but are you a qualified research ophthalmologist?

I can't stand 'review in progress' reviews. As professional gaming outlets they get the download code in advance of the public. They should put in the hours to finish the game and write the review. I've completed the original Gears I know how long it takes to clock. Unless it is a massive RPG this 'in progress' guff is inexcusable and has been posted to gets hits by offering a verdict that isn't actually a final verdict. Shameful and I will not click I will go to ...

@meanthyme. Rather than insulting fellow N4G members I chose to make a point using evidence. If you are angry about that maybe it's because you know the point is valid. All I did was repost Phil Spencer's promise and contrast it with his actions. If you angry take it up with Phil.

At the time of the reveal that Microsoft had bought Minecraft Phil Spencer said on video that all platforms would be treated equally. He also said "Whether you’re playing on an Xbox, on a PlayStation, Android and iOS devices our goal is to continue to evolve and innovate across all those platforms.”

Now in markets where the game has not been launched on console Phil Spencer will be treating it as a console exclusive. Whilst not strictly breaking the promise he made it certa...

I'm wary of unofficial battery devices. My solution is to have two DualShock 4s. I play on one whilst charging the other.

I won't click. It's not professional to hate on a game before it has been released.
