I know they are usually trying to pass off multiplats as exclusives but I'm still not sure they are the same quality as the PS exclusives.
It's clear that they will just spew whatever nonsense they have to and many people will just lap it up.
I wouldn't say it rules here in the USA anymore though. You might be surprised to hear that the Playstation brand is extremely popular here but hasn't been marketed as much this gen.
RROD rebuys and shooter fans helped MS numbers a lot here also.
In this instance the games are actually on YOUR HD and not the property of blockbuster or on some remote server.
I generally prefer physical copies but would never deny that PS+ is an amazing deal.
I got it early on and genuinely couldn't believe how awesome it was.
....and I don't even trust digital distribution in general.
I would love an OPTION to use move in shadow fall, though I wouldn't mind the second controller either.
If people don't think Move can work for FPS, the should watch the video in my above post of me embarrassing people in the KZ3 beta.
Yeah, some proper lightgun games where you can calibrate and don't have need to have that silly reticle on the screen.
Also, I was able to do some massive damage in the Killzone 3 beta with the move.

....therefore, if properly implemented it could be a great OPTION for FPS games as well.
....and you shouldn't have to pay for something you don't want.
Mostly shredded newspaper/packing foam and several liters of mountain dew.
"TeH power of public relations gimmicks!"...
Sony is bringing us quality products as usual while others depen mainly on advertising.
Somehow I don't think I will fall into their targeted demographic.
You okay there buddy?
At lest they are on your own HD in this case.
Though I prefer owning physical copies of many games, I still think PS+ is a great value.
Lets not forget the discounts on games you purchase and all the other bonuses.
I never forget the classics.
I lol'd at "good luck to you".
I plan to have my PS2, PS3, and PS4 all sitting peacefully in the same area.
I will be showing my continued support for Atlus, which is easily one of my favorite publishers. I really hope as more and more people learn about true gaming quality they will do the same.
I hope that if they every do become massively successful that they don't let greedy vultures send them on the path that Capcom took.
Which is why PS4 exclusives will look the best next gen, because of first-party devs like naughty dog working with that specific hardware and learning to get the most out of it through continued optimization.
Options are the future, which is why you can still buy physical copies of PC games, because they would lose revenue otherwise.
Also the PC and Console gaming/markets are different and physical media is cherished by many console gamers.
In the case of always on, most consumers will continue to think that having to be online to play a (SP) game you already paid for is silly.
It's nice to have the option, which is what it will remain for most games next gen, an option. It will remain an option because millions of people still prefer buying physical copies, regardless of what some PR spokesperson might be telling people.
People say ryse was running on a high end PC anyway. Either way most consumers wont be able to tell the difference and MS knows that.
They just needed to up the initial "wow factor" to try to negate some of Sony's hype. Their PR is top not and a great way to illustrate how gullible people are.
