Commentary: Sony, Microsoft continue to battle for best console title, Playstation 4 winning the war

War is coming, but not just any type of war.

In this war, sleep is diminished, grades take a steady decline and countless Doritos are lost to hungry soldiers. Red-eyed and shaggy-bearded, these soldiers are fueled purely by Mountain Dew and the strive escape to a virtual paradise.

It is not a familiar type of war fought on a battlefield, it is a virtual race through camaraderie and entertainment.

It is a console war.

"Playstation 4 winning the war"

As of right now...

Considering Xbone is getting completely massacred on it's own HOME TURF, and the track record of PlayStation outselling Xbox year after year every where else... Pretty much...

"So far Microsoft is firing with exclusives"
"Sony has the safety on still"

MS's 1st party = http://www.popularmechanics...
Sony's 1st party = http://cdn2-www.playstation...

Just sayin'

NewMonday3882d ago

and the new PS4 exclusives anonced in Japan destroys the last argument haters love to repeat "indystation"

it leaves them looking like this

they are still recovering

mewhy323882d ago

Come on. This thing was over the minute Don Mattrick stepped onto the stage at E3 and told the gaming community to buy an xbox 360 if they didn't like what was happening with the bone. Now the micro$oft execs are dropping like flies and reshuffling like a deck of cards. Sony didn't treat us all like sheep and didn't try to force a spy camera into our living rooms and micro$oft did. Now they're paying the price.

At this moment the PS4 is the favorite to win next gen console war and I believe they will win.

With the X1 100€ more expensive then the PS4, I don't believe X1 stands a chance. If Microsoft released a Kinectless X1 cheaper then the PS4, it would certainly turn next gen more interesting.

MizTv3882d ago

I agree
I just hate the fact there is kinectless version

Since Sony cares about Customer Satisfaction, by the well of God, Sony will win.

Sony is only winning the battle

The war will be 10 years

So far Microsoft is firing with exclusives

Sony has the safety on still lol

It's going to be great for gamers in general

Angels37853882d ago (Edited 3882d ago )

Not gonna lie..that took me a second...that was world class stealth trolling.

theBAWSE3882d ago

Like Microsoft catered to the xbox and Xbox 360 with exclusives throughout its lifespan?

one thing any gamer knows is Sony will provide exclusives and unique ips well into ps4 lifespan add beyond

two consoles in the same cannot be said for microsoft

Bennibop3882d ago

Half of Sony's first parties have yet to announce what they are working on and if you look in to it SOny actually has more exclusives announced than Microsoft now!!

first1NFANTRY3882d ago (Edited 3882d ago )

no head start, $100 more with inferior hardware? dude i think M$ has already lost the war.

It's alright they can try again for the fourth time in another decade.

ThatCanadianGuy5143882d ago

You seem to have quite a lot of faith in microsoft.Weird, considering they lost two "wars" with Playstation already.

*shrugs*

sincitysir13882d ago

What a joke. If anything I'd say Microsoft is winning a teeny tiny battle for that island inside the ocean of an island inside another island. Sony is like a turtle. Slowly but steady. And then BAM the turtle has a jet pack strapped on. Didn't expect that did u?

NeloAnjelo3882d ago

And who "won" between Sony and MS this gen?

I think we'll get a troll answer too.

CultOfPersonality3882d ago

And Microsoft will struggle with exclusives down the line and Sony has t even brought out the
big guns yet!

lol@ xboners making random accounts to troll in ps4 articles, just like all those bots spamming tweeter, shame on you.

gaelic_laoch3882d ago (Edited 3882d ago )

What War????

SONY's PS4 is the peoples console choice as their next gen console. The xbone will find a niche market and will no doubt have a few great games. But it is now time for many to just let go, put down your xbot pitchforks and move on with your lives...........the war is over, don't be some Japanese soldier hiding out in a jungle 30 years after WW2!

Regis3882d ago

But before many people put down their pitchforks. People find new ways to ignite said, "war"

steve30x3882d ago

Microsoft is losing because of the ammount of stuff you have to have Xbox Live Gold before you can use it. I will still buy both consoles though.

SITH3881d ago

Yeah I know they are losing because it is the same exact amount* of stuff you had to have last gen! Amazing!

Say what you like, but virtual farming is big business. And that means the release of Farm Tycoon onto the Xbox ecosystem should appeal.

Days Gone, 5 Years Later

Almost unbelievably, Days Gone has just turned 5 years old after launching on April 26th, 2019. What's changed in that time?

Such a good game to me. Crazy how different peoples opinions can get.

Crows901h ago(Edited 1h ago)

For me it wasn't that surprising. There was some bad press before. There's also the matter and element of a person's disposition when trying out a certain game. Sometimes you're just not really into the type of game that you're playing so you put it down because you don't like it. Not necessarily because it's a bad game but because you're just not up for something like this. Reviewers have a tough because no matter what they feel like playing they've got to play what's releasing.

I have many times gone back to games that I put down only to thoroughly enjoy them the second time around because either there wasn't another exciting game coming out around the same time or I just had no other games to play and haven't played that type of game in a while. I'm not the type of person that can just play a souls game through all this iterations one after the other without getting burnt out on the formula.

In my opinion this game was great from the start. Some bugs here and there but nothing worse than the most AAA releases during the same time after and before. All I did was wait one week and I had a phenomenal time with the game. No other zombie survival game comes close to how I thoroughly enjoyed this one

-Foxtrot5m ago(Edited 3m ago)

Yeah I thought it was pretty decent, it had its flaws but for their first big console single player open world game it's a solid 8/10.

I have never seen an AAA "zombie" game feature as many enemies as the horde sections did, you really had to think about your surroundings and plan carefully.

I feel journalists had an issue with this game from the moment it was announced, they really didn't like the Biker characters and the overall Biker gang theme. If they were anything else I feel it would have had a better chance or at least they'd overlook some of the flaws like they do for certain other open world games. They don't mind waiting weeks or months for a patch knowing its coming but a game that has it Day 1 it's suddenly a big no no? Yeah this was one of those moments that showed you how they cherry pick who to suddenly decide to go harsh on when they want to.

Leeroyw1h ago

Second act of that game far surpassed the first. Which is why people felt it didn't live up to the hype of the trailers. Personally I loved it. But it was a slog to get your bike and weapons up to skill.

Inverno1h ago

Was gonna post a brick wall of text but I'll keep it short. Pardon my French but f**k the media for the hate they gave this game. If you have a PC to play it on you can get it as low as 10 bucks, and if you have a PS then it's a no brainer. Totally worth a play.

phatak57m ago(Edited 49m ago)

I don't even comment here often but had to for this game, I still stand by my opinion that this was one of the top 10 games of the ps4 generation, I preferred days gone over god of war, horizon and last of us 2, the launch version was definitely piss poor and that messed up the reviews for this game, honestly some games deserve a re-review or post patch review as the metacritic score stays forever but the reality is its not even the same game anymore, the ps5 patch is amazing and the pc version which I play on nowadays is one of the best looking games ever, complete shame that we wont get a sequel, god of war got one, horizon got one, last of us got one, spider man got one,ghosts of tshushima about to get one but this game wont get one, sucks to be honest.

Ps3/360 era had some hidden underated games for me it was shadows of the damned, alice madness returns that deserved more sales and a sequel/ higher scores, and similarly for the ps4 era it was days gone, and dying light 1 that deserved much more love, dying light atleast got a sequel, everyone needs to play this game once and judge for themselves, for me its officially the most underrated game of the ps4 era, go play it if you haven't.

Awesome game. Just bought it for my laptop last week
