thats not true. Sony are on a high because they have shown off a very good product with a very clean efficient message about what the consumer can expect from that product.
Certainly MS making such a turd of the Xbox One announcement has helped Sony gain ground buts its far from the ONLY reason that Sony are on a high.
OK, since you clearly dont know what redux means and have limited comprehension of what this blog is about then let me help.
Redux means "brought back" or "revisited". it is a direct reference to a blog from several months ago. He does actually mention that in the opening paragraph along with a hyperlink to the blog but we've already established that comprehension isnt your strength so lets move on.
It would be incorrect to write a red...
You are right the problem is the way MS is handling the siutaion - but these are the guys you are entrusting your expensive entertainment to for the next 7 years and to be honest they are making themselves out to look like complete bell-ends.
The only trace of direction they have points to casual, their track record of providing games throughout a consoles life cycle is abysmal, and the management team has no idea what they are doing - this is the situation.
Its approximately 25% Of xbox owners who have gold, so it certainly is a cost for the majority of people.
yeah, he should have known 3 months ago that the unnanounced unnamed console was going to be called the Xbox One.
That would definitely have been possible, it really would.
Your far too easily amused if you laugh your ass off at that statement, either that or your an internet douche who cant make a point without adding lol or lmao onto it.
Some of my favourite bits of Microsoft PR BS
"This game has features ONLY possible through the power of Kinect" - what??? Why do I need a Kinect for voice activated features in Mass Effect, surely any mic will do?
"This game has features only possible through the power of the cloud" - that would be matchmaking then.
"You are the controller" - I don't feel in control
The only way Kinect will end up being implemented in games is just like it is today - as a glorified microphone for voice commands that nobody uses.
I dont care how many games use it, its a gimmick and a pretty lame one at that.
You are Microsoft's target audience. You think it makes perfect sense as evidenced by your laughably simple explanation.
You think this is some new technology that dev's need to get "more and more familiar with" - its not. its old and its not practical for what MS are suggesting. That's why nobody does it that way.
Anything that requires a very fast reactive response (ie games) is unsuitable for cloud computing. Persistent worlds and mat...
Wow great ! I can't wait to use smart glass in some games, it looks like the perfect accessory for next generation innovation and immersion.
Said no one ever.
I'm not calling bullshit on a product that isn't out yet - I'm calling bullshit on a level of technology that doesn't even exist yet, at least not in the way MS would have you believe. Of course they would have you believe that without actually naming specific quantifiable data and instead they keep their descriptions vague.
If you believe that cloud computing can be used to enhance in game AI or graphics then I'm sorry but you are illiterate in the subjec...
i couldnt have said it better myself, although the number of disagree's you have show just how effective Microsofts PR machine is at spinning bullshit.
I'm sure that in the future nuclear fusion will be possible on a domestic level, but don't try and bullshit me today by telling me that's what's happening inside an Xbox power brick.
Nothing about Milo was cool...
It's sunset overdrive not sunset overstrike.
I never noticed a difference tbh
If we want to split even more hairs then one gives you free games across 3 systems (PS3, VITA, PS4), and one gives you free games for one system (360), and both are needed for multiplayer.
to be honest by the time it gets around to being on PS4 then there will probably be something bigger and better out, still sucks having to wait though.
You know i actually wrote the opening paragraph specifically for people like you who would have trouble comprehending my point.
Clearly thats too subtle so in future i'll try a half page advert in the new york times in the weeks running up to my blog explaining what they will be about.
Or you could just try reading it properly, that way when you write your xbox defence you will look a bit less silly.
