Oh for gods sake now you're just being deliberately stupid. If you really wanted to know you would know by now. There have been dozens of articles, interviews and videos about this already. They already said, things like online passes and stuff will be up to publishers, there is no DRM what so ever (other than burned discs not working, obviously) regarding disc based games. Single player will always work. The online part is up to publishers, and many, if not all of the big ones, already s...
Microsoft is getting it from all sides. Their Windows Phones don't sell. Windows 8 is crap. Valve going around telling everybody how to abandon DirectX and why it's crucial to their success to switch to OpenGL and start producing Linux and Mac versions of their games. And now this XBox One disaster.
Microsoft is wealthy enough to not be in any danger anytime soon, but I hope they keep this up, whatever this is, so they eventually run out of business and make room for ...

The PS3 wasn't profitable at $599, the launch unit was costing them ~$900 per console. Meaning they lost $300 every time someone bought a PS3 for $599.
I am not kidding, this is the only thing that would make sense, nothing else makes even the slightest bit of sense as to why they are doing all this. This is the company that made people worship a console with a 33% failure rate and now they seem to have forgotten how to tie their shoe laces? I don't buy it, something is way off, I simply can not believe somebody would be that stupid.
Too bad they didn't show the 18+ area. It was so crazy, you could play Killzone 3 in a bathtub or a toilet... even in a body storage unit of a morgue, I'm not kidding. Infamous 2 could be played on hospital beds standing vertically, slightly angled so you can lean into them. We were like WTF when we walked in there.
I am so sick of this "if you don't have all consoles you're not a gamer" crap. That's the dumbest load of bull I've ever heard. If your definition of a gamer is a mindless robot who will buy every crap related to gaming I feel sorry for you.
I will never own a Wii, 3-4 games that interest me don't justify a purchase. I will never own an Xbox, the crappy hardware and again, 3-4 games that interest me don't justify a purchase, plus, Microsoft h...
Currently I play HL2: Deathmatch, Supreme Commander 2, Runes of Magic and Borderlands.
Yep, in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.
Is this the new bash-the-PS3-approach? Too many updates, really? You can't think of anything better? Well then, since there is nothing to complain about you should just go and buy a PS3.
True, but I would love to see it take off like crazy, sell like hotcakes leaving everybody else in the dust. You wanna know why? Because it's MS, as soon as they smell the money they will just abandon their fanbase like an old pair of socks. Meaning there won't be competition for Sony next generation because Nintendo and MS will be busy at each others throat trying to claim the soccer-mum pie, no games will be held back, it will be PS2 all over again. Game after game after game, quali...
Sony is in it for the money, everybody is, but Sony is aware that you have to give in order to receive. They have always said, if you don't please the hardcore, you lose.
@Major Jack Hoff
I know right? 16 years of top notch hardcore entertainment on Sony platforms and people still question Sony. 16 years, that's two thirds of my life, it's more than the average age of the mint-green demographic.
@thewrathman
Why would I buy 2 separate devices if I can get 1 for the same price that does better and a lot more than these 2 devices combined?
Also @soxfan2005
The Bluray player in the PS3 will receive an upgrade at the end of the year that bumps the value up by 200 bucks. Standalone BluRay player: 100 bucks (Current PS3 FW), standalone 3D Bluray player: 300 bucks (3D movie enabled PS3 FW). So no, the PS3 does not lose it's edge when it...
Ubuntu Lucid is awesome, especially with compiz. By the way:

Now I don't know if this is actually true or not, no official announcement/confirmation from Valve since the article, at least none I have found, but if true, we're in for a ride. Makes sense anyway, MacOS is Unix based, so is Linux, both use Ope...
Just out of curiosity, has Sony ever shut down a studio? Wiki says nothing and couldn't find anything on google. I am really curious to know because, I never heard of Sony shutting a studio down.
I'm not stealth trolling or anything I really just want to know...
Well I'll take the compromises over MS Windows any time, I hate rebooting my PC just to play games. OnLive doesn't have a native Linux plugin yet, I hope they will bring one in the future, around the time they launch in Europe would be great.
But on topic, the possibilities of OnLive are endless, you can play on your TV, your PC, Mac, even your cellphone, although 3G is too slow for this, WiFi might be an option on handsets. You can play all your games at a buddies ho...
Provided consumers don't learn anything from this gen, but seeing the 360 still going strong I really doubt people are able to learn anything.
Holy fucking... I was already sold on inFAMOUS 2 since I knew it existed, but god damn, I shouldn't have watched that damn trailer, now I want to play this right freaking now...
I am pretty sure Eidos wanted an Indiana Jones but created a female character to avoid any lawsuits from Lucas Arts.
This is so pathetic, where you see a black kid, I see a kid, where you hear a black kid talking black, I hear a kid talking.

This is a PSP ad that has been used a few years ago in the EU, nobody complained, nobody made it out to be racist, in fact, the majority of Europeans see two people in this add, not a whi...
Just watch the interview, he said they are playable at E3. The question was specific to GamesCom and he said yes.
