The thing is Sony knocked it out of the park already and there's no way MS can swing the pendulum back their way with what they have. Let's face it, MS will put all their eggs in the kinect and charge for free apps basket and that can't compete with Sony. MS is rumored to reveal something soon and I guarantee that we core gamers will be disappointed and the MS fanatics will scream for the 5th time in a row "wait til E3". Every year we "wait til E3" and every ...
Lo who what now?
Great read. If it wasn't for Sony I would have given up gaming. I don't like Wii and Kinect so thank you, Sony.

"they probably have people checking what gamers are saying about this"
If that were true then they would have never tried to shove Kinect down our throats. Go to ANY forum or comment section and see what gamers are saying about Kinect.
There is no way MS can be Sony's announcement if they put Kinect 2.0 in the forefront when Sony put the core gamers in the forefront. Showing free apps that we already use on our phones won't cut it either.
It's official. No used games on Xbox 720. Meet your doom MS.
The Wii won this one. Only Nintendo and Sony have won console gens while the rest all end up becoming 3rd party developers.
Nah, MS will never delay their launch. We're talking about the same company that rushed the Xbox 360 to retail with a 54% failure rate that they knew about.
@Hellsvacancy
Yes. They are scrambling right now to match the specs of the PS4 so I can see them forcing something that don't fit.
@Dragos75
The PS3 outsold Xbox despite the one year head start and despite being twice as expensive as the Xbox. What makes you thi...
David Cage has spoken.
PlayStation games always sell themselves. Games like Demon's Souls sell 2 million copies with no advertising when games like Kinect Star Wars only sell 1 million with a HUGE marketing campaign budget and the powerful Star Wars name. You don't make money on games like that that only sell 1 million what little you made and then some have to pay for all of that advertising so you end up in the hole. You make more money when most of your profit don't have to go to a huge marketing ...
MS have never won a console gen and came in dead last place this gen so how in the world does the next gen start when they say so?
Of course they learned from it. There will be plenty of games at launch. The PS4 is easy to code for and ALL the devs love it so there will be no bad ports. The PSN will be totally fleshed out with cross games chat this time for free while the competition still charges for it. We all know the price won't be $600 either. That's the only reason they lost some market share but still ended up in second place behind only Nintendo even with a $600 price tag so with a reasonably low pri...
Sony listens to developers and gamers.
This won't be anything new. MS rushed the Xbox 360 last gen as well. MS are definitely scrambling frantically right now to reveal something that's on close to the specs of the PS4. I'm pretty sure they are scrambling to come up with timed exclusive DLC as well since Sony stole Destiny content exclusivity from them.
Well we know what 343 Studios is up to and we know what Turn 10 are up to and we know what Lionhead are up to as well. With MS opening new studios like Kids and Lifestyle Entertainment studios, Playful Learning Studios,and Connected Experiences we pretty much know what that they are up to making more Kinect games.
That's what the Killswitch devs said about you, Epic. Epic thinks they invented the cover system. smh
Another dead last place position.
That's pretty much a given. Carmack is one of the greatest talents in gaming and he's even praising the PS4 along with all other devs. That says it all.
That along with the 8 gb of random access memory means vastly superior multi plats and it also means another console gen domination for Sony. Sony have taken away all of the bragging rights that the fans of their competition held over Sony.
Made the PS4 easy to develope for? check
Added more ram than the competition? check
Added mic in the box? check
Added cross game chat? check
Bigger controller? check
Sony has their foot on ...
To sell me MS would have to:
ditch the Kinect focus
get back to core gaming
create new IPs
put the left analog stick in the right place on controller
let me play online for free like everyone else
make reliable hardware
let me access my Netflix account for free like everyone else
have a PS+ like service
don't charge extortionate prices for HDDs
let me watch Youtube for free like everyone else
