Look microsoft i love you and everything that was done with xbox 360, i want to get xbox one but all my friends are jumping from the 360 to ps4, and i mean like 10 of them, me and one other friend have left pre orders on the day 1 edition,but the chances are that i am probably going to cancel if nothing positive comes to the xbox one in the coming months. I'm 80% lenient towards ps4 and 20% to xbox one even if i find the exclusives to be amazingly better on xbox one, ps4 cheaper price and... #50
you do know the new msoft cloud service is far more advanced the gakai cloud... microsoft have been devolping it for years, sony just bouoght gakai not long ago. gakai can't do azure cloud computing while the x1 can, gakai cant stream ps4 games while the x1 allows to access and play your game at any console in the world. #52.1
I'm an xbox gamer- but any gamer knows xbox live gold can be boought periodically through out the year for 39.99, however i have not once seen a deal on ps+- it always stayed at 49.99.
Is gold really a ripoff? one year microsoft offered me a copy of halo reach or fable 3 (back when they were atleast 39.99 in the store) as well as gold all for 49.99, and i chose fable 3 and no it was not a digital copy- they shipped me a hard copy/retail copy. Not a bad deal if you ask me.... #40.2
@stuffolegend Consumers will speak with their wallets when both ps4 and xbox one come out. Pre orders are looking good for both systems but i bet ps4 orders are higher. But we can only wait and see how they sell when they come out.
Microsoft is releasing it system for 500$ with tons of great exclusives in a short time frame. Microsoft is really hoping people will buy their system from the strong game conference and game exclusives shown regardless of drm.
@Fardan The msoft share system works at any given time only one friend and play and access your library. One friend so 10 friends cannot actively play a game in your library even if they are different.
Now playstation- your library of games can be lent to as many friends as you want so long as they are different games. eg i give one friend killzone and he other friend infamous. This is not possible on xbox- only one friend can play the game at a given time so when the... #1.6.6
@inspectre Trading in used games games for new games only adds fuel to the fire. Its a continous cycle which initially increases the sale of the new game but those 3 or 2 games you just traded in for it- well you just hurt those devs and publishers. hurting the sales of 2 or 3 different games to buy one game brandnew- tell me how does that look? You just did good at the cost of a greater evil
Why not wait for the game to go cheap and become affordable? plenty games ge... #1.6.3
"yeah because this isnt on playstation it looks crap." Excerpt from the diaries of the playsation fanboy
But seriously the demo looked okay but i was checking out people who have played the game and their impressions and they were saying the game was much better than what the demo showed at the conference- so im glad to hear it and for an arcade game this looks big budget and so does crimson dragon,
Last i checked the exclusive psn games at sony co... #8
Microsoft's drm policies are a big change in gaming- But i love games and i want the devs and publishers to be successful, but how can they be successful when used game sales take so much from profit. Did you know that heavy rain sold 2 million copies at a time where more than 4 million have played a copy of the game? With so many big publishers closing, most recently being thq and the cost producing AAA games rising with each gen- why shouldnt developers and publishers be protected? Micr... #1.6
@travelguy Think about it this way. The psn players that that dont have psn+ enjoy playing online for free- NOW sony forces these players to pay 50$-60$ to access online "but dont worry here is plenty of free stuff to come with it." These psn players are like how is it free?- you forced me to buy psn+ to access online now and im paying 50-60$ for this free stuff i dont even want. All i want is to play online for free just like before. Sony says "too bad" ... #1.12.7
@squirrel well ok i think we generally know the comparisons- msoft just announced 2 free games a month with gold so that seewtens the deal.
But Ps+ just announced that its a necessity to pay play online- correct me if i'm wrong but things just got a little sour. But Fans are jumping up and parading? The same fans who said " i would never support a system that requires you to pay to play online" hypocrisy at its finest.
Paying to play online with sony= awesomeness and excitement?
No body remembers that paying to play online is not cool because we use our own connection? What im paying sony 50-60$ a year for the share button?
If memory serves correctly i was paying msoft 60$ a year for party chat?- oh wait that was a ripoff because i was using my connection and party chat sux, who needs it?
Lol why would you think this game is coming to ps4? Most people seem to forget who owns the publishing rights to this game and that is microsoft studios. Capcom is developing the game.
Remember dead rising 1? that was an xbox exclusive because msoft published it eventhough capcom developed it. Dead rising 2 how ever was published by capcom so it was multiplat.
Msoft secured publishing rights to this game and therefore this title is exclusive to xbox while ms... #2.1.4
that is whats on my mind and all that matters to me are the games, and the quality devs that make them deserve to succeed and continue making games. I own all current gen consoles but primarily game on 360- still respect sony though and the ips they have.
Are you sure if sony somehow has a similar setup for used games that you would truly forget about sony?
I mean you are a sony addict after all... may have to send you to rehab to get rid of the addiction! lo... #7.2
umm - oh wait i forgot you cant play halo or forza online! and xbox has no servers to mantain so god knows why online passes are not used for msoft's top selling franchises while sony does. #50.1.1
^^^^^^ you fools replying to his comment? You guys are pure fanboys, give credit where its due, what happens if cloud computing can offload some things like some ai and some physics to the cloud? then you guys would feel pretty stupid.
Avalanche studios are not the only ones using the cloud- look at respawn entertainment's exclusive for xbox one called Titanfall- it was leaked that this game does in fact use the cloud to offload some simple physics and ai to the cloud= an... #1.8.4
