CRank: 5Score: 73680

For Microsoft to have any type of success with this current price structure (10$ a month) They're going to need a minimum of 10 million subscribers every month. They have to pay to make games, pay 3rd party royalties and pay for the infrastructure that runs the entire thing... I'm not sure how long the leash is before they pull the plug, but I'm sure if they don't have that 10 millions plus subscribers every month by 2020 they'll shut the entire thing down...

A little premature when crackdown 3 is right around the corner... Now I've recently came out of a coma that I've been in since 2014 , so I'm assuming crackdown 3 will be better than what they've shown...

So when you buy an Xbox controller you get endless supply of free batteries? If two people want to play than you need to buy two controllers anyways...

Everything I wrote is factual... Maybe you need to grow up.

Totally agree! The same people who claim switching batteries is the best are also the ones who buy 5 xbox controller's a year. They fail to see that if you own 2 DS4 (which probably 100% of ps4 owners do) you can charge one while you're using the other...

Another lie they like to push is that the Xbox 1 pad is larger than the DS4 (which it isn't)

So to summarize it up, ps4 owners only own 1 DS4, it's smaller than the Xbox gamepad and our...

When will Sony just get out of the way and just let Microsoft lead the gaming industry? Microsoft knows what they're doing. They might not have great exclusives, or a perfect track record when it comes to keeping promises, but what they lack in those areas they make up with the best BS PR articles money can buy. So let's all encourage Sony to just move out the way and let the true leader lead us. Microsoft! Show us how console cross play is done! Who needs Sony anyways to console cros...

Sony sold more consoles this quarter than Microsoft sold all year and the enthusiasts thinks that's a downgrade...

You're underestimating the amount the EA servers are having to process to deliver the same experience simultaneously for 64 players and taking my point about them filling for bankruptcy too literally...

No one is twisting Microsoft arm in saying silly things like "everyone has the power of 12 xbox in the clouds" They're saying it because they know they can walk all over the media and it's fans will believe anything they say.

You can'...

I can't believe the media is still allowing Microsoft to spread its BS like this... When you look at a game like Battlefield that has 64 player maps with all types of vehicles, destructible environments and some of the best graphics out there and then you look at Crackdown 3 with its small player count, below average graphics and environmental destruction that leaves much to desire, How can we with a straight face believe that they're using the power of 12 xbox in the cloud to power i...

The worst part is that Microsoft will force those handicap kids from its superbowl commercial to play it... Those kids deserve better, we all deserve better.

More power to you brother... I'm merely poking fun at the fact that "gaming journalists and xbox enthusiasts" act like if you play 3rd party games on a ps4 its going to brick the system... The first 4 years of the console generation never existed and the generation only started in November 2017...

Playing games on PC is great, but I use mine to play RTS type games. Everything else I like to play it on console

Paid journalist : "Who plays 3rd party games on ps4 anymore? You obviously buy the ps4 for the exclusives and buy an Xbox for 3rd party games..."

Gamers: "why can't you buy a ps4 for its exclusives and 3rd party games?"

Paid journalist : "because 3rd party is all Microsoft has left"

Gamers: "maybe Microsoft shouldn't be in the gaming business if they have nothing to offer..."

I guess sony figured out how to turn all their ps4 into dev kits... This has a potential to be a game changer for many who thought game creation was out of their reach.

Cross-play brought them together and now Damon Baker will tear them apart...

What happened to "survive together"?

To all the people commenting, I hope you're putting into context that I started by saying" in the year 2032" and then proceeded to have an imaginary conversation from the future... It's all in good fun. Laugh, thumb up or down, leave a nice comment or move on. Lol! This was obviously for entertainment. There's no way Phil could enslave us all by the year 2032...he would obviously do it much sooner.

Hey, if you're not in love with my tongue & cheek prediction of the future, why don't you take a crack at it? Who knows where we'll be in 13 years... 😉

Media: what happened to all the great single player experiences?

Gamers: You destroyed them...

Media:???

Gamers: remember when it was more important for you guys that we all cross-played together that you demonized one company for it...

Media: we were doing it for the gamers, so we can all play together...

Gamers: we were already all playing together......

Phil and Microsoft can say what they want since the gaming media is just a bunch of spineless excuse for journalists... I don't blame Phil or Microsoft since they're just trying to turn a turd sausage into a hotdog for its enthusiasts to devour while the competition is blowing them by...

I'm more disappointed at the gaming media for letting Microsoft walk all over them and when they do decide to pick a fight it's for dumb things like "cross-play" that...

2018: Sony releases over a dozen exclusives

3 weeks into 2019 : "Will Sony ever release a game again? They're getting cocky and we might as well all burn our playstations and buy an Xbox because there's not enough days left in the year for Sony to release or show us anything new"

We gotta love these doom & gloom articles..

So they're no longer selling at a faster pace than the 360?
