Sony‘s PS4 arguably has just one major advantage over Microsoft Xbox One: price. We in the hardcore gaming community can argue DRM and used games policies until we’re blue in the face, but a lot of those broader debates are going to fade when we’re faced with a mass market in the fall
"The Bristol-based (the UK) indie games publisher Auroch Digital and indie games developer Positech Games, today announced with great happiness and thrill that their hit-political title "Democracy 4: Console Edition", is coming to consoles (PS4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores on June 5th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
PSLS writes: I have traveled across the country using the Razer Kishi Ultra in airports and hotels for both PlayStation Remote Play and mobile gaming in general, and I am thoroughly impressed.
Fallout 4 is now available on next-gen consoles, offering 60fps gameplay and 4K resolution. But it's bad news if you claimed the game on PS Plus.
Probably won't happen for PS+ since Sony makes a clear distinction between a PS4 game and a PS5 game, unlike PC and Xbox where it is not a specific device game (It's now always an Xbox game).
So to make the PS5 game of fallout 4 available. Bethesda would need to renegotiate the complete deal with Sony.
hence why there's often only the PS4 version of the game available on PS+.
Let's hope Bethesda and Sony can arrive to term quickly.
This article is funny. They tell you that $35 is a good deal for this game...We know whose side they are on.
One key question that Mr. Thier might have addressed in his column: the strong possibility that Microsoft will quietly reinstitute their DRM policies after launch. While I see where he is coming from, the DRM question, especially in light of the NSA scandal (which he does mention later on in the article), is not restricted to hardcore gamers. Regarding it as such only worsens whatever problem there may be about general user-ignorance.
Sony really did make the right decision by making the Eye an add-on, so as to drop the price. At the moment, they're winning the price battle and this is arguably the most important battle to win. It'll net them more sales in the early game.
One of the biggest influences in buying a console is which console will more of your friends be on. If more people are buying a particular console early on, then that means that there is a greater chance of somebody's friends being on that console, thus swaying their decision.
It's hard to go wrong by pleasing your costumers.
I can imagine that people who prefer sony exclusives rather go for a ps4.
I can imagine that some people with a tight budget go for a ps4.
I cannot imagine that everybody with a tight budget is jumping to get a next gen console at all.
They will probably wait till both consoles will drop in price.
People lining up right now are mostly hardcore gamers that dont care about the pricetag, Sony is indeed a 100 cheaper, but its still flippin 400$,EU, thats a lot for people on a tight budget.
Like all other gamers that get a console this year, i get it for the games, not for the budget, prefer sony games, so go for ps4, prefer xb1 games, go for xb1.
I seriously doubt that someone who prefers the MS exclusives would go for a sony console this year because its a 100 cheaper.
ummm... by $100?
we need the article why?
By having focus on what the product is:
