Rolling Stone is usually the first place I go for game news. /s
The authors last line says it all: "Now, let's see which platform gets the best games."
He's pretty much admitting that everything he just wrote about was a load of crap, the games will be the deciding factor not all the other BS.

Just wondering what "killer app" you are excited to get with kinect? Are you gonna have a dance dance revolution? or maybe you can't wait to watch T.V. through your console? I know, your excited that you will be able to shut the damn thing off by giving it the finger. X1 has innovation coming out it's ass. /s
@starchild
No, It just means there are over 700,000 people who love to play the same shit over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over again.
That's 1 "over" for every COD game made since 2007, pretty monotonous huh?
@thekhurg
Man you have a long history of whining and complaining. Here's an idea, go to another website and end all of your misery.
@gigoran
You think it's ok for some poor bastard to get the death penalty because he may or may not have sabotaged PS4 production because he works at a forced labor camp and they treat him like shit? I hope I'm not the only person on here who thinks you are a huge fucking douche bag who deserves to be put in a Chinese forced labor camp. Just so you know, the Chinese government has total control over the internet in China so don't worry your stupid little head abou...
@Reefskye
It's called child labor, and prison labor, and forced labor, and the problem is greed not money.
If you think that Forza 5 is gonna be better than Forza 4 you haven't been keeping track of just how badly they have gimped the game. It should be called Forza 5: Prologue, which is very WACK.
I'm not saying the list sucks or anything but the author could have left Ghosts and Madden off the list and no one would have noticed.

Micro sold the xbox for 2 years before acknowledging the RROD and instituting a 3 year warranty program for systems that were bought after July 2007. At one time, there was just a 32% yield of one of the test production runs. 68 of every 100 test units were found to be defective. Microsoft knew they were selling us a highly breakable piece of shit, lets hope that Sony isn't doing the same thing right now.
every one needs to stop regurgitating the .4% number that Shu pulled from his ass. How could they possibly know what the percentage of failed units are at this early stage? the answer is they don't know yet. I feel bad for all those people who paid 500 bucks to stare at the outside of a little black box but that is what you get when you rush out to become an unpaid beta tester.
@mattdillahunty
I completely agree with you when it comes to games that are on a yearly cycle i.e. COD but you can't say that about Uncharted 3. There was a two year gap between 2 & 3 and I'm telling you that you are missing out on a great game if your not gonna play 3.
@abzdine
Kojima is no longer synonymous with Sony, what would he know about games that aren't coming from Konomi? BTW I'm not trying to attack you or anything I just don't understand how Kojima would know anything about another studio's game.
Yes he is. Guess he just can't wait to be an unpaid beta tester.
Somebody lied to kojima and told him spike was popular.
I wish I could have agreed with you twice. The 15 dollar map packs are what finally drove me away, that and the feeling of dejavu I've had since modern war 3.
@gaming101
That's because women aren't the most discerning consumers out there, the term "impulse buyer" was invented to describe the way women shop. Just paint the next gen consoles pink and women will think that there helping fight breast cancer.
@jamieL
"It's fun" is about the lowest standard you could have for video games. No one is saying that Forza 5 isn't fun, were saying it's Forza 4 with it's nuts cut off. Who want's to pay full price for a game that's going backwards in terms of features? If "it's fun" is the only standard you hold game makers too then you shouldn't come to N4G, your only going to find people with much higher standards then you for games.
where's the proof of that? If your talking about the one story that came through N4G where the author was getting the information from somewhere in between his bowels and his anus then your source kind of sucks. Also, if your pro Micro then you clearly don't know when your getting screwed.
apparently next gen isn't about gameplay either. Ryse has always looked good, I'd be more concerned about my game being compared to dialing a telephone.
Just wondering what is so great about either consoles launch lineup? Both are full of pretty uninspired games that don't appear to be all that next gen.
