I knew about this years ago.
Scores don't make a game when everyone uses it to get add revenue.
Woah. Wait.. This clause is a double edged sword. And what it truly says is "don't leave us behind."
No console wants to be the port station. But at the same time developers don't want to write code for the same game twice. Microsoft is going to push developers away if this continues. Until someone figures out a way to "convert code" properly between the two consoles. Which means playstation will most likely be the ported code if indie devs can sto...
I really didn't see this one coming. I have a vita myself but I honestly didn't think a soike in sales would haopen with the vita.
@Nukeitall:
I can agree that gamers can go on gaming sprees for lengths as far as a full 24 hour period with the console in gaming mode. But this is based on an average user. And what is the average user doing? What almost every american does 6-12 hours a day.... WORKING. Or school... depends really. I leave my PS3 off sometimes for weeks at a time between games.
And a unit being powered off but still consuming electricity is where it can "add up." ...
On a serious note I wish they didn't blur out the entire flippin thing. One reason. So we know what NOT TO DO. Instead we don't know what to avoid.if anything this sounds like a troll who wronged his own console and is making it widespread so he can get a refurb xb1 instead of payin * amount to repair it.
At least they acknowledged the problem this time instead of "investigating" it for a year.
Wait until they find out how to change the serial numbers for the units. You will never be able to get rid of the cheaters and random consoles will get banned if the numbers match.
I want this on my house!
@ plastica man. The vita already does everything the ps app can do. BT!
Besides I already downloaded it and the number of downloads is at 1 mill plus already.
NOW I CAN STAY CONNECTED WITH MY PS BUDDIES ANYWHERE!
Bye jeff. Either way microsoft actually really needs all the help they can get. Seriously they do. But I think playstation is going to do things differently this gen.
The stock market has a huge influence over the decision tbat a company makes. If something isn't working then why try to keep fixing it if, in the long run, it will only let you down? I see the xbox brand dieing if they can not topple over sony and the playstation brand. They haven't quite toppled the ps3 yet and this generation is still going.
Just remember. This is a ToS deal. If you make a death threat to someone and they call 911. That is when you get taken to jail. The NSA is on Xbox kinect.
Exactly. All this means is that if you don't connect to the internet then your games will be much worse. So much for "not having to connect to the internet to ENJOY your games." This DRM case has just reopened.
I wonder what will happen to those who get their console on launch day and connect at 11:59. Will they be banned for connecting 1 minute early?
Also.... what if their server maintenance doesn't happen on time and on day one before 6 am the next day the embargo on their 3,000 what ever servers ban your console before you get your trophy. oh I'm sorry achievement for the day one purchase.... that would suck.....
Everything Sony is doing they must try to one up. We as consumers see through this a lot. When you can't be original then no one will like you. No more Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V stunts man. It's getting old and it only reminds me of what Sony did first. Thanks for advertisong the Playstation 4 with your stunts M $.
I foretold this game would be the "Lair" of this generation. And it did worse than that.... Now Ryse is the new example of a trash exclusive. It makes Lair a double a game when compared to ryse.
I stopped caring about the online as well. I don't like playing it because of the brand new invicibility glitch that was spammed online in matches.
Am I the only one who doesn't care about this game? Exclusives are time sensitive more than 30% of the time. That "only on" lingo doesn't mean squat to me anymore.
You obviously have never owned an external hard drive and tried to transfer 10 gb of data to it within an hour.
Does this article prove a bias against Sony exists soley because the author is an xbot?
Seriously this article should not have been submitted.
This only gives ammunition to fanboys to use in the next release of any new console exclusive.
Thanks fanboy article writer. You keep the console wars alive.
