Bought Xbox 360 around 5 years ago becuase it was 2 times cheaper than PS3.It do not have free multiplayer and have less exclusives and there is only one that interests me(Forza Motorsport series).Forza Motorsport 5 looks great but i can sacrifice it for free multiplayer and the fact that the PS4 will be without DRMs(for now).No cash for you Microsh*t.

That right there is some brilliant fucking marketing.

Sure is, that video is going viral and for good reason! Microsoft thought it had the upper hand until this video played...then they were like

I dont see how they could have responded better to that especially after the rumours they were planning a similar thing.

how they could have responded better?
It was the only logical way, after Microsoft got ripped apart because of this ^^

Retro Compatibility in terms of physical copys, PSN its a service, Xbone you buy an game you activated the game, alike steam so even the physical copys are just data backup stills digital activated tied to your account, you can trade it with someone that stays in your friendlist at least 30 days and you can do it once per game

Personally, I'm getting a Wii U because I only play my consoles when I have friends over and that's probably the best for local multiplayer. And btw, you need ps plus to play online. Watch closely.

It is. It is awesomely awesome FREE GAMES FOR THE WIN... LONG LIVE THE PS4

good. this will either force microsofts' hands or it will be a landslide. No company is stupid enough to leave a business model open when they get so much heat and no one else is doing it. Remember divx?divx?/ My mom won a divx player and we got $25 at the time to buy titles. we got a dvd.

I was going to get a ps4 this time around anyway, this just makes it all the better that I made that choice.

Yes, but notice how they took so long to announce it? Something tells me that they just hurriedly ripped out every inch of used game DRM in their system. Why else would they wait for so long? They were waiting for reactions and acting on that.
Also, what I find fucking hilarious is that people bitched so much about Gold being needed for multiplayer for the 360, but now that PS+ is needed for multiplayer on the PS4, Sony's still somehow God.
My opinion on it all? Fuck the console wars. The only reason I haven't gotten a PS3 is price. The only reason I'm getting the more expensive Xbox One first is because their opening titles appeal to me more and I already have an account. I'll be getting both when I can.

Plus is a really good value. Infamous 2, Uncharted 3, XCOM, Little Big Planet 2, LBP Kart, Demon's Souls, and various indie games for free. If you have a PS Vita there are a handful of those available as well. The discount side of Plus leaves a lot to be desired but that's only because we've bore witness to the glory of Steam sales. What opening titles are you referring too?
Comment has been collapsed.
Demon's Souls is what just made my decision today to get a PS3 at some point. I was under the impression it was on the 360 as well, so finding out it wasn't bummed me out a little. Oh, well, new console time. As for the games, Dead Rising 3, Titanfall, Project Spark and whatever this new Halo is (wasn't numbered, so I don't know if it's 5 or something else) are the exclusives that jump out at me the most so far.

Titanfall announced for PC. Spark is supposed to be on Windows 8. And Dead Rising 3 made a windows sound during the event, so some think it may come to PC.

Doesn't mean I want those games for Windows. ;) I like relaxing with a console just as much as I like my face against the screen, screaming at the n00b in charge of the fucking Smoker.
That said, thank you for explaining what the fuck that noise was during the DR3 event. I was trying to figure out if it was my PC for a moment, then trying to figure out what in-game was making it.
Comment has been collapsed.
That's why I use my PS3 controller on PC games. ;D
Yeah. I thought it was me too lol. Found out by others that it was indeed DR3. Maybe no real HUD because it was PC controls. :p
(I still think it was a tech demo.)

Yes, that's what my first two sentences cover. Please read.

They have been telling that the console would work without online for a long time. They only did a official announcement today...because its E3! Maximum exposition, directly working against what was announced for Xbox One.

not to be a fanboy but sometimes gold gets good things too :D We got Fable 3 a day ago, the walking dead free ,...
feel free to correct me :D But I agree that enabling the subscription based multiplayer would break sony, thats why ps3 had more fans than xbob360(in my opinion) :D

"Hurr durr zero is too much for Fable 3 hurr durr." - fucktards, fucktards everywhere.

They are right though. The game is a fucking travesty that should have ever come out. I bought it at launch and still regret it to this day.

Until someone's played through Secret of the Magic Crystals and Horrid Henry, they have no right to say a game is worth nothing.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh, Im playing through Secret of the Magic Crystals. And it is more worth of my money than Fable 3.
Comment has been collapsed.
I could say that about Fable 3 plot and gameplay.
Also, remember remember, the best DLC ever
I will never again give money to Molyneux. I will even tell people not to pirate his games, as they are not worth that bandwidth use.

Thanks for expressing my opinion. Sony isn't less evil than Microsoft

I'm with you on that, Jade. Fuck the console wars.
Microsoft's conference was mediocre. Sony's conference was almost insulting to those with some objectivity left.
Sony basically just tried to mask another mediocre showing by getting everyone talking about how they trolled the competition. That way they could show mostly gameplay footage from games that are multiplatform. And also people are less likely to notice that they took away one of their main marketing tactics. They also implemented something they insulted the competition for having.
How can anyone believe anything these companies claim? Sony would go back on the used game thing in a second if the publishers genuinely pressured them to do it.
If people just abandoned both of them we wouldn't have to worry about exclusives anymore. We wouldn't have to deal with ridiculous and archaic closed market digital distribution structures.
It would just be PC :)

Waitasec... let me get this straight. If you've got a PlayStation Network account, you no longer can play anything online unless you begin paying for a Plus account? Is that true? I'm "Team PlayStation," but man, if that's accurate, it totally blows. I had been considering getting a Plus membership, but that actually makes me not want to do it.
Even worse, that would give Microsoft an opening to turn the tables on them and regain some face, if they "pulled a Sony" and changed things in favor of multiplayer at the last second. If M$ suddenly made their online accounts free, that'd balance the books, so to speak.
Comment has been collapsed.
Honestly, if you have a PS3 or plan on getting PS4 there is no reason why you shouldn't get a PS Plus membership. Totally worth it. And besides Microsoft has required you to pay to play online games for years now so really Sony is just catching up to them.

Looks like it's going to just be Sony vs Nintendo while a beloved console manufacturer makes boneheaded decisions that put off the majority of it's fanbase and force it's console-making division collapse . . . . that seems familiar, as if it happened 15-to-20 years ago . . . .

Guess what console I'll be buying? Hint: it's NOT made by Microsoft.

but u can still watch dvd and blurays on XboxOne XD

TBH, the Microsoft conference was better to me, when it came to games and PS4 looks nearly the same as the Xbox one....but still better ^^
And somehow I get the feeling Microsoft is going to soften the online requirement a bit. Still if I would one of them it would be the PS4.
Also lol at the Assassin's Creed freeze :P

Cheaper than XBox One, more powerful than XBox One, and better treatment of gamers than XBox One?
I think at this point the PS4 could come out in 2020 and still beat 2014 XBox One sales.

get all those and more with sony ps4, but instead of me spending this 1.5k i spent on my computer, i could spend 400$ on a ps4 or xbox one, still undecided
