ps4 + fifa + a bunch of free games = 460 euros < xbox + fifa + nothing = 500 euros

or in the case of my country :

ps4 > no xbox at all cause they they think my country is tier 3 or 4 and they dont release her here

How many months of PS+ does that buy you for the not-really-free games?

Theres a bunch of free games not tied to PSN+... such as MMO's etc .. one of the sensible things Sony did was not put F2P behind a paywall.

I hadn't caught up with the F2P information. Though it's not much good having a free MMO without PS+, so unless some F2P games can be played in SP offline they are still in effect behind a paywall.

you can buy a wii u + two games for the price of ps4, or a wii u + 3-4 games for the price of a xone. and the online is free.

I'm talking about games such as Planetside, DC online, you don't need PS+ to play them online. While if you are on XboxOne, right now all multiplayer stuff is behind a paywall. Not sure how many games will be like this, but I think all F2P multiplayer/MMO games will be like this, theres at least 3/4 at the moment on PS4 that are like this I believe.

No shit. Thanks for updating us on basic math skills Sony

man can Sony finally start to care about their own shit? I mean all they do is talk about the others.
The others are bad because of THIS the others are bad becaus of THAT we are better because of THIS we are better because of THAT.  kindergarden...


Its like the people on parties that have nothing to say/a boring life  so all they do is downplay others.   Serious insecurity....


(P.S. before people say  "but but but  you are downplaying sony yourself"    guess what I am a person not a company and not in competition with Sony  thats a different thing than trying to downplay people on your own level)



MS adding FIFA to XB1 preorders was a surprise to me. I think it really shows just how poor of a position they are in even after retracting their policies regarding XB1. Still it was a move that was good for gamers since it evens out the playing field a bit so I'm glad to see MS changing its stance and getting the pressure back on to Sony to step up. Sony has been in a great position ever since the XB1 unveiling and the E3 debacle. Sony has done a decent job with their console, but MS has made the PS4 look better than anything Sony could have said or done short or giving away free games with the console. In the long run I'm not too sure that any of this will have a lasting effect. I think Sony coming out the same month and year as MS with their console should work out to Sony's favor. I expect Sony to lead this generation by a substantial lead (at least in worldwide figures) and MS to follow with a more mild success. WiiU I think is out of the question at this point. At best I put it at N64 sales level or less.

Sooooo, he should have said what?  Ignored the question?  Pretended he didn't hear it?  Addressing a question about your competition is insecure?  Bwhaha.



I believe retail will actually try to push a self made PS4/Fifa bundle, because that way they can make money off the console and off the game. While Microsofts bundle takes away the revenue from their best selling title.



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

The xbox one comes with kinect though it's not like its just the console. if that was the case then it would be 400 like the ps4. I for one want the new kinect. And the fifa for Eurpe is a good bundle deal for a next gen console imo.
