Sony to remove all cameras on your xperia smarphones and Vita console.

Good move Sony PR. When we thought PS4 was quite...



Very misleading thread title nowgamer. You can't put forced camera anti-consumer in quotes if they never said that word for word. Plus anti-consumer does not equal "against consumer choice."

Please fix that before we have more fanboy comments.

Or I have horrible reading skills and I apologize.



it all depends on how you look at it ms is giving the choice to use every feature out of the box while sony is giving you the choice if you want to use every feature by buying it separate

That is up to opinion and a persons intentions on use of the system,  some people might not care at all about kinect.   they dont want it but have to pay more.  MS can say its part of the experience, but if someone doesnt want it, they shouldnt have to have it.

  
Then if you don't want to be part of the experience they're offering you, you should seek other options.

 

I don't see how something can be anti-consumer if it doesn't fit to your particulary needs as a consumer. If you don't want it, buy another thing. You have the option.


Because people want the Xbox but not the kinect.  It kind of goes back to always online.  Some people dont want to play online.  thats not there thing.  its anti consumer to bundle your product in a way to forces these people to either pay for something they dont want, or they can simply not buy.   Giving options is always great for the consumer, and is the way to make your user base happy.   more options means less profit but sometimes it helps sell more when people can choose exactly what they want.

Almost all of them right now.

None for now... at launch none... maybe I'm wrong but no game at launch is Kinect required lol.

The biggest first-party launch title, Forza 5, didn't require Kinect.


Part of the experience, my man.

Except you goes full digital... you need a disc feature in your console.

My thoughts exactly. I came in here ready to blast sony but didnt see anything like the title suggests. Unless we both have horrible reading skills



fergal never said "anti-consumer" but rather "against consumer choice" which is true.
