uh... not really. sony's probably going to win this upcoming generation, based solely on the policies that sony isn't shoving down people's throats. #9

lewis black is always amazing. #7

honestly, their conference was on the dry side, but they certainly made up for it with the two giant bombshells they dropped onto MS's lap. #7

right, so... MS goes after you, and you release PS4 SDKs... brilliant logic. #7

"program's expiration not tied to Xbox One"

*cough* bull**** *cough* #5

they obviously think that their fish AI will put CoD over the top... #21

@ frigiddarkness:

what proof, other than an ill-informed article? because the proof that there won't be DRM restrictions or mandatory online was shown during sony's conference.

you *really* need to try harder or stop trying to fight a losing battle. it's sad that you're trying to defend a company who's doing nothing but imposing terrible restrictions on their customers. #3.2.4

@ belking

there was no TV talk, and they showed plenty of games.

marking you for trolling, and moving on... #6.1.2

MGS5 is coming to PS4.

and when MS bribed publishers to only show their games on xbone, it's no surprise that you saw wall-to-wall gaming. #6.3

uh... someone needs to tell the author that PS4's hardware is more powerful, and that sony's policies aren't restrictive. #13

(too late to edit)

and it baffles me that you're honestly sitting there still trying to:

a) justify MS's horrible policies

and

b) imply that sony will have similar DRM when tretton *very clearly* stated during their conference that there will be *no* DRM restrictions, and *no* required online connection, supported even further by a huge screen behind him that read: #3.2.1

riiiiight... "PR stunt." good one.

3rd party publishers are going to have a really hard time implementing DRM on the PS4 if you don't even need to have the system connected online... since the DRM is dependent on an online connection. #3.2

you get way more value out of a PS+ subscription than you do a XBL gold subscription.

plus, you don't need PS+ to be able to watch netflix or use any of the other apps. #1.1.3

likely, yes. #18.1

could be? i kind of think most definitely. #11

uh... you *did* see the press conferences, right?

-PS4's specs are, in fact, better. stop fooling yourself.
-$499 for xbone, $459 for PS4 (*if* you buy the *optional* camera peripheral), so your math is horrible wrong.
-the online environment is probably going to be on par with each other.
-i've had just as many stability issues on XBL as PSN, so you're wrong there.
-don't make me laugh...
-yes, they slaughtered the... #2.13

it's not that bad since you can get a better quality HDMI cable elsewhere (and you can always just use one you already have), but yeesh... #3.4

this isn't anything new. sony, and EA both have similar clauses, but a lot of companies have it as well. it's not taking away the ability to sue altogether, though... so if you're a litigious twit, you can still sue to your heart's content. #8

8GB of total RAM with 1GB dedicated to the OS, i believe. still, 7GB of RAM dedicated to games is a lot better than the 5GB dedicated to games on xbone (since their OS will chew up 3GB). #9.3

@ Hadoukameha:

i also purchase a lot of digital titles, so that takes up a lot of room. PS4 games will most likely take up even more space, so 500GB is a good thing (1TB would be even better). and again, 500GB drives are dirt cheap, so it wouldn't have really affected the cost of the unit. you've also got to be the first person i've ever encountered who has ever cried about the HDD capacity being too much.

no, not really. EA does not support... #26.2.2
