Although I don't rent or buy used games, and my xbox is always connected to the internet, it's still pretty fucking stupid what Microsoft is doing. Up to this point, my PS3 has pretty much just been a blu-ray player with a few exclusive games being played on it. But, I might be leaning more towards the PS4 for the next gen.

It honestly really depends on what other people purchase. I have 80 xbox friends, and 10 PS3 friends.... Pretty obvious what console I'm going to purchase a multiplayer game that is released on both consoles. Either way, I pre-ordered both on Amazon since I can cancel them anytime leading up to release, and they don't charge you until they ship.

Also, Sony is requiring that you purchase PS+ ($50 a year) to be able to play PS4 games online. Not surprising seeing how much Microsoft makes off of Xbox Live. But it is funny when Microsoft did this, everyone freaked out and said Microsoft was evil, yet when Sony does it, no one seems to care.

Also, lol at Microsoft. Definitely early to say they've lost this gen though, especially since some retailers are currently reporting more preorders for the XBone than the PS4 (Amazon UK being the only one I can recall). They definitely did get stomped from a technical and rights standpoint, and then undersold to boot. I hear their games didn't present anything too mindblowing, but since they're pushing it more as a living room appliance than a games system, I'm guessing they'll continue a push for the casual market, where you really just need something like Dance Central or Wii Sports to move system units.

Re: more like Xbox Done

Nintendo just sold me a Wii U with that Mega Man trailer, even if I'm not huge on Smash. If only Capcom would just sell Nintendo the rights to the character instead of holding onto him so that they can keep canceling games and putting out garbage. Their games at this are the only ones that I can see myself enjoying as a a break from the other games that I would prefer on PC. Sony did have an excellent showing though, I'd just wait for the inevitable slim model in a couple years. Our PS3 won't be moving for a while.

It's just incredibly creepy for such a stupid feature. I'm not at the point in my life (yet) that I'm too lazy to get up and actually push a button to turn a console on. Hell, that's like 95% - 99% of the exercise I get, how else do you think I got an Alex Kirk approved core?

first off lol

Price normally doesn't concern me at launch, it's only going to get cheaper anyway...I just thought it was crazy how Sony has the better/higher end hardware and is still able to beat MS on price. Sony's camera, while no kinect, is only $50. I think Sony gets some credit here for being cheaper.

Anyway, I agree with the watching/listening conversation statement. I have a younger neighbor who uses the kinect for everything..I never knew it could do all it could do, outside of games. I'm thinking the listening/watching thing is just its way of learning you better, so when you use it, it better recognizes whats going on instead of random movement etc. Sure there is always that conspiracy of big brother is watching, but in this case I think the watching is just to collect more data on you to give you a better, more customized service. Nothing wrong with that..

Btw for those who didn't notice. The ps4 has a more powerful GPU and faster/higher bandwidth Memory (GDDR5 vs DDR3) and some how is $100 cheaper. Sony is definitely eating a few hundo$ a console to get this out the door at $399

maybe you would appreciate this (i do), but i loved the street fighter games during the snes and genesis era, and as a kid always loved all the mega man games and on the capcom unity mega man page is a free mega man game (downloadable on PC) called Street Fighter X Mega Man. Essentially, all 8 bosses are Street Fighters done up in mega man sprites plus unlockable bosses if you get a certain amount of perfects like in Street Fighter playing through the game. soundtrack consists of 8 bit mash-ups of mega man and street fighter music. done really well.

yes, but if you try to play offline prior to the console validating/authenticating with Live servers for the day, you have only one hour. which means if your internet went down that day before you were able to turn it on to check in with the Live servers and you want to play campaign until your internet comes back up then you can only play an hour's worth. that's at least how i understand it. maybe it can authenticate while in standby as the kinect listens and watches you lol. i'd never have my system in standby if i owned one. would just pull the power lol.

Re: more like Xbox Done

by hatemakerr » Tue Jun 11, 2013 10:16 am

So if you don't know, but care, here is this....

-The Xbox 1 REQUIRES an online connection. If you're offline, you can only play on your system for ONE hour.

- The Xbox 1 just recently (after angry people) decided that the kinect camera (like wii motion, if you don't know, but care) WON'T be turned on all the time watching AND listening. When off, it will only 'listen' for the words "Xbox on"

Because of those two points, whoever cared enough to hack the PS3 because they kept saying it was bulletproof, will surely hack the XBox 1. However, in doing so, the Xbox 1 will be a $500 1 hour rental.

Pretty fucked up no?

Edit: And, microsoft is basically going to watch you sleep and listen in on your conversations because you can't unplug the camera.
