Straight-Edge-Loyal 6,686 Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Playstation easily beating xbox on Amazon in North America in terms of orders.xbox have even fallen behind the Nintendo in Canada! lol.Ouch!Seems the damage has already been done whether they reversed all the stupid stuff or not.Being.fair the whole DRM and always online had a few good points a Steam like system coming and as well as the family share.stuff but there.was the obvious negatives as well but for me it was mostly good now we.will see no progression and nothing much different from the next gen either and for me thats sad.

WeDontDoWalkingAway1872 303 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 The online DRM didn't bother me as I buy all my games new and always playing them online, regardless if it's single player or not.The thing that does bother me is having to pay for the kinect. Got the first one and it's utter pish! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, the massive cheers from the crowd at the Sony Playstation conference when all the guy was really saying was.... "Erm, basically things are staying the same" lol.

The only thing I see Kinect being good for is parties or if you have a few mates round. Otherwise, I'd rather sit still with a controller in my hand - preferably without being watched by my console the whole time! Maybe that's just me though...

Plus i'm just a lazy bastard.I agree although I'd think I'd rather a tennis game with no controller than running up and down my Livingston slide tackling the carpet for FIFA etc I bought the new g1 jockey game as I had all the others in the series from ps1 to the 360 version and the new one was kinect enabled. Feel like a bit of a sack stood there pretending yer on a horse and slapping yer own arse It will work for some games but as you say many just don't feel right minus the controller WeDontDoWalkingAway1872 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gitch 364 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I don't know about kinect sports games at all. If I wanted to play golf or tennis I'd just go out and actually play the game for real. I prefer using a controller for sports games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Atheist 178 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Game developers claiming games "can run at around 30FPS in 1920×1080 on PS4, but it’ll run at “20-something” FPS in 1600×900 on Xbox One"That is a massive difference! Only the most dedicated of Xbox fans could possibly buy this instead of the Playstation.Should people be laughing at Xbox or worried?..... That is a very interesting question. Why? Well, there's a chance games will only be made at Xbox level so as not to rock the boat. Microsoft wont be happy with companies who put out far better versions on another platform. So, we could all suffer thanks to Xbox being a pile of shite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your not a fanboy talking shit are you?The PS3 was more powerful than 360...look how that turned out....As long as we get great games no one will care about slight differences.

Nope. I do prefer Playstation if truth be told but i still ditched my PS3 for an Xbox 360 as I just want the best gaming experience regardless of what console it is.I got the benchmark info from here....http://www.edge-online.com/news/power-struggle-the-real-differences-between-ps4-and-xbox-one-performance/I agree with with your comment that as long as we get great games nobody will care. That said, it still does not change the fact that if the gap is so huge then Playstation games could be sabotaged so they are similar to Xbox versions. Even if they are still great games, we *could* be missing out thanks to the quality of the xbox console.Maybe i'm wrong and developers wont care about annoying Microsoft by putting out a better version on another console. If that is the case and these benchmark tests are correct then, whilst we may not notice a huge difference right away, by the time it gets to say 2018 and the consoles are a bit more dated and devs know how to get the best out of the system there will be a gulf between xbox and playstation games.

Blue Atheist 178 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 That article is so much shite Shite enough for Microsoft to issue a response to?.....“Ten years ago, you could argue that a console’s power was summed up in terms of a few of its specs, but Xbox One is designed as a powerful machine to deliver the best blockbuster games today and for the next decade.Xbox One architecture is much more complex than what any single figure can convey. It was designed with balanced performance in mind, and we think the games we continue to show running on near-final hardware demonstrate that performance. In the end, we’ll let the consoles and their games speak for themselves.”Sounds like an admission the Playstation is the better console in terms of specs. Of course, he say's the hardware is "near-final" so there may be some improvements but Sony are still working to improve their system as well.
