Now that Microsoft has decided to drop the DRM and online activation, does it stand a chance against the PS4? Microsoft is in a similar situation that Sony was 8 years ago. Riding the Xbox 360 wave Microsoft believed from the start that the new Xbox One would be the console everyone would flock too and accept no matter what was in it
Sony has patented to add multiple dialogue modes to let players switch between how many conversations with NPCs they want in the game.
Sony is like the only ones outta the 3 that has atuff like like this pop up changing thing in ways.
Genuine Enabling Technology was seeking damages, claiming the tech allowing PlayStation consoles and controllers to communicate infringes its rights.
Sounds like patent trolling they tried the same thing against Nintendo with the same pattern.
Motion and control input traversing over higher and lower frequencies seperate from each other allowing the controller to do both
So to recoup the money Genuine is going to take on Nintendo or Microsoft next. I hate patent lawyers they are some of the worst bottom feeders out there.
Microsoft has announced the Microsoft Rewards app on Xbox will be discontinued in April and has confirmed that weekly streaks will also be coming to an end.
Wouldn't be surprised if they changed the price two weeks before the console comes out to see how much the pre-orders jump. Anythings game with these decisions changing on the fly. One things certain you don't mess with a internets worth of enraged gamers lol
XBox One - we tried to screw you. But Sony forced our hand not to.
That $100 price difference is a factor, coupled with the fact that the extra $100 is for a console that might be less adept in the area of performance, and IMHO you have compelling argument for the PS4.
But I guess it comes down to value, if the X1 provides that for you, then by all means get it. After all, value is in the eye of the beholder depending on what you are looking for.
PS4 for me tho.
Edit:
Well, the exclusives go without saying, I have been more than happy with Sony exclusives on the PS3. Overall, PS4 seems like a better package for me.
Plus, I have 2 PS4 reserved. If I can get one sold for $600 to $700 at launch, I'll be golden. That plus the system is already $100 cheaper. Can't wait.
Not for me it doesn't. PS4 day one!
Playstation has always pulled away from their competition
