All this who copied who is crap. Sony copied nintendo and made a console, MS copied Sony to do this... blah blah blah... It doesn't matter, what matters is what is in your hands on release day. I agree it makes them look weak for not having all these features in the first place, but it would have made them look much weaker by not having these changes. So they have learned from their mistake by taking the backseat in the beginning of the race.
So far however, with eve...
That has nothing to do with this article.
On a related topic. I feel that we all expect alot from this game. I just do not understand how we can get something of this scope they portray on current gen consoles. I wonder how dumb down the 360 and ps3 version of this game will be? Perhaps a two disc install on 360?
So many questions and so long of a time before this game releases, I think they started the hype train to early because I have such high expec...
I totally want to go digital.
The only thing holding me back, and if someone knows the answer please tell me, does exlusive preorder content become available if you buy day one? It seems as though if you buy online there is little to no benefits besides not having to get up.
However if you buy the physical copy you get preorder bonus, trade-in resale value, physical disc transfers... They just haven't ironed out digital distribution yet. Give us a reas...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Sony couldn't afford to pay for all the janitors at MS. They are HUGE and one of the leading companies in the world! I imagine there was sarcasm meant there or an intentional bad joke. Even if this console launch is a flop its not like they will quit, they have won 40% of the market and will not give up on marketing the Microsoft brand.
Honestly happens on both sides of the fence, I just think that its more apparent from the Sony side because there are quite a bit more die hard fans from that side. Righteously at the moment, the public perception seems to sway that way currently.
I used to be an Xbox fanboy who said I would never buy a PS3, I ended up buying it (still didn't care much for it but I enjoyed it at times) and I have a feeling many of the PS4 fans will end up caving and buying the One as w...
Sony is definitely making a great change over it's last iteration. I applaud them, because the first half of its life I practically never played my PS3, and I recently sold it without getting to play the remainder of its titles such as TLOU.
On your point however, I don't think that the $500 price tag is unfair, I just think that the PS4 is SUPER cheap for what you get. Sony's strategy this time seems to be value, I just hope that quality isn't at stake for ...
It's likely that the PS4 has the upper hand this at the release. People are more likely to test the cheaper system because there is less risk. However, the only point that this article makes is price.
Didn't the PS3 have a higher price and start off crappily and end up in 2nd place over Xbox? I'm not saying the PS4 will lose; however, this article really sucked. This was simply a clickbait article with 4 paragraphs about price. I am tired of these articles o...
That feature is also on x1
The loot system is based off individual drops so that it's fair. Keep in mind that no one can get your loot and everyone gets something different. That promotes sharing of loot more because I may receive a shotgun and not want it but the guy next to me gets a sniper. We can always swap.
I heard them say they were doing something, but they never explained how...? Are gestures going to make people not ruin your game somehow? This was a poorly written article that made no sense.
It is not the same, the Xbox 360 only offers 512 MB of free cloud storage space to gold members. This means that sharing your gamesaves and other files on the cloud was limited to only 512MB, but with this new concept, we are not limited to space for our saves. Some games of mine, like Skyrim have a high filesizes for my saves because I start a new save quite often. Also I believe if you are synced to a certain console, all of your games will be automatically downloaded to other consoles yo...
Both companies have great devs, MS simply decided to invest their money and games for the future of x1. It wasn't the right move in my opinion, but it doesn't discount the fact that MS has had some AMAZING exclusives as well. I wish I hadn't sold my PS3 recently so I could play the Last of Us. I just needed money for my next-gen purchases.
To be fair though, I rarely got use out of my PS3. I played UC 1 + 2, MGS4, Infamous 1+2, and that was it for the exclusives...

They finally took the lead after 6 years... The Xbox held the market for much longer. What did you expect being released a year later they had the ability to make the console overall last much longer.
I think everyone can agree that the 360 certainly has its troubles holding its relevance today because it i...
@1lawrence
If the sales were close that means that most people wanted it. There is always going to be a side that doesn't want one companies product over another. That, lets say, 48% of people who didn't want it probably just wanted a PS4 and it wouldn't have mattered what they did. From my understanding however it seems that policies weren't accepted by more than just 'close' so it was clear to MS that it wasn't something that the masses wante...
For me RDR was a great story to be told. The gameplay was fitting for the genre, however the characters in that game made me feel as though these were truly real people. They had a sense of weight in the world, it had everyone feeling the emotions of a cowboy in great epic western.
John was so different from us as players yet drew such a connection with the audience. It drew on our understanding of morality, and you felt the weight of his past.
Hands down ...
I never said it can do EVERYTHING a computer could do, but it takes everything that is necessary from all major electronic components that average gamers use. The xbox can do THINGS that the PC can do... Who knows though, it does allow you to use Windows RT apps now, which is going to lead to all types of innovative features by the community and MS. Which could easily allow it to run an Emulator is it doesn't violate the terms and conditions.
Kinect 1 was a gimmick, however there are actually useful applications for the new kinect. And when you say your TV can do everything the Xbox can do, well that is ridiculous and you know it.
The xbox can do things your PC can do as well as your phone, tv, cable box, stereo, and your ps4. Not only that it has things they CANNOT do. Refer to my list above. To deny that the Xbox One is equivalent to a smart TV is only going to dampen your possibilities as a gamer, your simp...
As for PS4 innovation, they have the hardware, which may lead to innovative features in the future. The only real difference between ps4 and ps4 seems to be vita support, video capture, and better hardware. I could be wrong, and of course the overall console got enhanced, but as for something really NEW, I have a hard time finding a reason to pay $400 for an upgraded ps3.
If hardware were my main factor I would be building a PC rig, the innovation of new features in the X...
Why is that? was that thought out or are you just reading the script Sony fanboys have next to their bibles?
This was such a nice surprise, I love unboxings, and I love how they used the unboxing to reveal the headset included. This is a great turnaround and I don't care what anyone says this is MORE value than when I put my preorder in. Keep bringing the changes!
