C'mon Ubisoft, it wouldn't be complete if you didn't include a hackable Xbox One so we could watch someone! #2

Price paid is supposed to correspond to what you get.

I own a Wii U, and got it at launch.

The price isn't bad. But the gamepad added majorly to the cost.

I like the gamepad, but they did go with inferior components in order to have a console and gamepad.

The PS4 is about 300 percent stronger than a Wii U, probably a bit more. But in raw power a bit over 300 percent.

It only costs $50 more than the Wii... #7.1.2

Yeah, it's called a remote control.

One or two buttons and I can be between TV, 360, PS3, Wii U, PC.

I'm not going to buy a $499 console with a $60 graphics card so I can use my voice instead of grab the remote next to me.

I mean if people want to buy something, that's fine...but if the reason is so they can use their voice instead of using a remote, it's not a very good one.

I'm sure Microsoft will make a... #8.2.1

Because they act like it's the ONLY way to do things.

There's 1000 ways to skin a cat, and last I checked Steam sends me an email that my account is registered to when I log on, if it sees I'm at a different computer. (when I LOG ON, not when Steam decides to)

The difference? I can play my games offline with no reason to need being online.

There are many ways to go about it, requiring a 24 hour check-in or my console useless is m... #1.5.2

This is like a guy holding a gun to his OWN head and saying he'll pull the trigger if you don't give him what he wants. #28

Exactly.

Used game sales would hurt less then if M$ actually allowed one game to then be given to 10 other people.

So something isn't correct.

Again if Activision would have said no to putting the original CoD Black Ops on the 360 because of 'used game concerns' then they would have lost out on 12 million sales

12x60 = $720 million dollars split amongst all parties (retailer,distributor, etc) #9.1.2

ROFL no it doesn't.

So you mean to say that they'll like losing 8 million game sales because they don't get money they never would have anyways?

It's so incredibly stupid to think that publishers would not make games for PS4.

Also many of the same publishers are ones that tons of people hate anyways.

Publishers don't lose much money from used game sales. Know why? Because if some games aren't used, t... #1.5

It's funny though, you see numerous articles from Xbox apologists trying to claim some sort of secret knowledge or ease of adopting technology advantage over us.

Like they are trying to make xbots feel superior to us thinkers that they somehow have special super secret knowledge we don't and once we get it we'll forget our stance and buy up all the xbox one's.

It's so incorrect it's insane. I can't stress how fake this viewpoint b... #7

Confirmed that they want to release it then.

But will they be able to is another question entirely. #5.3

Stupid article.

Acting like it's people not ready for an 'online world'.

Actually the forward thinking first adopters are just fine with an online world.

What they aren't fine with is Xbox One's interpretation of what that means, by spying and drm'ing the console to death.

I have hundreds of all digital games on my Steam account. I'm just fine with technology.

What Microsoft is do... #5

The gamepad is pretty cool. Though the pro controller is much better.

The good news though is you can on BLOPS2 use the pro controller to move and shoot and stuff, and use the gamepad screen to direct the killstreaks and such.

But I don't know why this is news. Everyone knows that if they wanted to add in a controller like the Wii U had it would raise the price by $100 or so. #1.1.2

Wow so the author is a corporate whore who is trying to forecast the future and thinks by aligning with powerful interests he will be right.

Playing multiplayer games requires an internet connection.

But somehow the idiot author conflates internet connection with Xbox live. You don't actually need xbox live to play online games. People have been doing it on other consoles and PC for decades.

But you see even though he makes that mistake... #32

Kind of stupid. A game like this would be great with campaign and multiplayer.

If it's just a multiplayer title, it should be download only.

I don't know what they have to fear in pushing it back, I highly doubt Xbox One makes it's own launch.

Either way PS4/PC weren't going to get it right away anyways, so a push back doesn't mean much. #3

What are you talking about, our reeducation camps come in the form of snooki, entertainment tonight, american idol, your local non-news broadcasts, and the national 24 hour non-news stations.

Throw in some propaganda in movies and video games and you got yourselves a hell of a situation for people who think and a fools paradise for those who wish not to. #23.1

Someone should mention to him that the console bricks will be 1000x more common for the average Joe and have nothing to do with piracy.

Maybe M$ can hire George W. Bush to be spokesmen...then he can say

"They hate us for our freedoms" #21.3.1

Don't forget that PS4 users will be able to do some similar things, like let their friends play the game with them even if they don't have the game.

So really I see some fairly similar features, but without the DRM.

If you could really give away 10 copies for every 1 that was purchased, don't you think developers would rather have used game sales?

Also that 'big woop' will seem like a big deal if you can't use YOUR c... #4.3.3

So what's the difference between buying digital games on PS3, PS4, 360, One, or Steam?

Well only MS and Xbox One is using this 'feature' and claiming it as a reason to need asinine DRM and check-ins.

The simple fact is for some people their first all-digital console was an 360 or a PS3, or wasn't a console, it was Steam.

Last I checked only Xbox is claiming the need to staple your ass cheeks together just to play your games.... #4.2.5

Educate the gamers who already know more than he does?

Is that like the Khmer Rouge or other tinpot dictator re-education camps?

Earth to Microsoft...the reason why we hate the Xbox One is because WE ARE EDUCATED already.

Only those whose passion for the brand (stupid for anybody to be that way about a corporation) blinds them from finding the facts or those with too much mental sloth to attempt it.

Sounds like the Major need... #1.16

If your computer ran BF3 fine, BF4 shouldn't be much of a difference. #5.1

The guy is speculating that since they get first crack at optimization that means they'll in effect run the game better.

Perhaps. Perhaps not.

It gives ATI an advantage, but not a major one.

Really it's more like a timed exclusive. ATI and EA will make sure it works for them and allow them to the opportunity to fix problems sooner.

But Nvidia has much better drivers, and updates them much more often.
