This console needs to fail to stick it up to cooperations who think they can just take our freedom away.
Put the fanboyism aside do not buy this.
Money and control.
But they are happy to use the media (buying review scores) to their advantage, suck it you greedy fVUCKS.
Might as well call it Xbox NWO
When business men who have no connection gamers and companies take over game developers like EA actibliz etc the quality goes down the drain the market gets saturated with the same stuff and we are expected to pay full price, not to mention games are barely challenging.
Game industry is just as controlled as the music industry, CoD is the game equivalent of kesha.
The problem with CoD is the company that owns it has no other intentions but to take as much money as possible from us.
You guys who re saying Oh PS3 is always on so is my DVD player etc yes it is you are correct, but what you are missing is Always On in this sense means you cannot play games with out being online.
What Blizzard did with Diablo is create a Real Money Auction house were you can sell your loot/items and Blizzard get a cut of each transaction, what also Blizzad did with Always On is manipulate drops rates by the server knowing what class's are in each group by doing that they...
And for people who don't understand how big this could be, blizzard did it with Diablo 3 and basically no body plays that game anymore in fact many more play Diablo 2 which is 12 years old. Go figure.
Disgusting, weare going to get to a point where everything about us will be all linked.
Facebook gmail google accounts with credit card and address info consoles what we watch on tv YouTube everything, they are going to be able to monitor consumer stats and manipulate the shit out of it to get more and more and more and more and more and more and more money out of us.
Kinect being forced could mean they keep facial recognition info building a database of the...
Consoles have been PC's since day dot.
Valve is about to sell out, they killed Counter-Strike.
I think your wrong about the videos if they can be edited people will make montage videos, I used to play Counter-Strike 1.6 and movies was one of the most enjoyable parts of the community/game.
What if theres new tech that renders images and graphics differently?
I remember reading an article about fiber optics and internet speed, apparently if you run a twisted fiber optics cable you speed up internet speeds up to 1000x just be twisting it.
We have had the same tech for the past 20 years we have just been making things smaller and more.
Its like SSD vs HDD we are still in the analog stages of hardware maybe theres something new an...
This gen has been horrible I think gaming companies are going to start to realise that people want more than a gimmick the novelty is starting wear off.
Music made a come back last year I hope its gaming turn this year since its been stagnant for 6 years.
Games like CoD will destroy gaming.
There are shops who buy from UK and re sell to us Online which cuts the price in half.
But yeah Australia is ridiculous.
Our dollar is stronger than US yet we pay a lot more for things EG we pay 40% more on cars than the US do since our currency is so strong for the past 3 years nothing has changed infact things have gone up in price and Aussies buy from online... Now our government doesn't like that so they are going to tax online purchases big time.
Don't really think Im older gamer I was 12 in 2003 and yet I still play Counter strike 1.6 which was made in 1999.
This gen has been absolutely horrible in terms of gameplay..
Graphics progression is inevitable as time goes on but Gameplay is going backwards.
Graphics dont hurt but the problem is there is no love anymore tis all about Key Performance indicators pleasing the shareholders and just making sales.
Just like music we are going to have a Mainstream and a indie market, Mainstream will have big graphics big explosions like Michael Bay flicks and the Indies will make games for gamers with out the flashy bullshit.
One of the best examples of greed from one of the best companies or were the best was Diablo 3 ...
Blizzard were the best until activision.
"the cell" wasnt hard for game developers to learn, they worked with Xbox360 because they will get more sales out of that console than PS3.
Which is why Devs who make exclusives with PS3's have no issues with the processor.
All about the money.
If the PS4 is more popular than xbox next-gen you will see the ports for PS4 are much bug free.
They had their chance, I guess they know that path of exile is free has many more features and difficulty and many many more are playing it over Diablo.
They tried to rob their player base with Rmah they dumbed it down for casuals and disregarded their core player base.
