Forums - Sony Discussion - Does The PS4 Deserve More Respect?

I think Sony deserve respect for making the closest thing to what consumers actually wanted out of this generation. Really though, none of them quite live up to what most gamers wanted so none deserve that much respect.

Why don't you add '... from the internet?' There's be some basis for a better discussion then. As of right now, the PS4 is the most highly respected console on the market.



 

The PS5 Exists.

Lol, sony has the worse online/os. Stability updates and can't even change your username or have something as simple as folders. Not to mention psn download speed are a joke with no first party online game. At least when Microsoft charges you 60 dollars to play online they give you first party multiplayer games that are good.

and here we have a perfect example of what the tc is talking about.

yes, its the best value for your money right now gaming-wise


Not technically the best value as Xbox One and Wii U are backwards compatible, and Xbox One offers EA Access. You actually use more money with PS4. But, I think all the consoles are underappreciated.

10m more ps4 users begs to differ as they most likely find the ps4 as the best value otherwise xboxone would be winning now.

I know lots of people who moved to ps4 for cod and just because there friends have it, but most of them who played on an XBO doesn't see the difference and some say its better.

No, technically as in "measurable" the PS4 has the lowest cost per TFLOPS. That makes the vast majority of multiplatfor games (even missing on the Wii U) running better.

The X360 b/c on the other side is and will be limited. With some games performing even worse than in the last gen HW up to be unplayable on a first analysis of the beta version. The Wii b/c at least is more complete.

As for EA access.. that raises the cost (thus the money). I'll stick with PS+ forking out on day one great gems for "free" like Rocket League.



PS4 has far too much respect that i am know feeling guilty with other consoles such Xbox one and Wii U

PS4 is "stronger" and higher priced. Most people don't even notice the visual disparity (usually resolution) so that power isn't worth much to many consumers.

Better OS is a strange argument. Lets just say that's subjective.

Many features on X1 and PS4 require the internet. BC just happens to be one on X1. Bottom line, many people have 360 games and being able to use them on X1 adds significant value. For many, Playstation's past BC added great value as well.

Just wanted to point out the obvious, here: it's higher priced because XBOne sales were initially shit and PS4 mopped the floor with it (in all regions), so MS got desperate and slashed the price a multitude of times (getting as low as $329) in just one year.

Let's not act like it's "stronger....but higher priced" with an even playing field. It's only higher priced because it sold (and continues to sell) at an initially lower price than its immediate competition, so, said competition slashed their price. "Stonger and higher priced" is an argument to be made for the PS3 against the 360. Not PS4 vs XBOne. It's not fair to think the consoles strength correlates to the price when it was the cheaper console, but got undercut. And its not like "well, if MS cut their price, then they should cut the PS4s price" because that's not how business works. PS4 continues to sell extremely well, therefore it hasn't reached market saturation at $400, so it will keep selling at $400.

360 did drop price just because PS3 came in with a 40GB model. Hell, a Whopper used to cost more than a Big Mac (BK is more expensive than McDs , in general) but the Big Mac kept selling better and bringing customers to McDs than the Whopper did for BK, so the Whopper is now cheaper. Can't say "the Big Mac costs more because it tastes better" when the Whopper originally cost more. The same product is, now, cheaper because less people like it. Not because the taste (i.e. power, in this analogy) changed

Didn't Sony announce the PS4 first?

MS made the wrong choice, Sony didn't chance what they were doing but they certainly did capitalise on MS mistakes.

Any rumours that they changed their plans are just that.

And I've pointed this out before, check out the meaning of 'await' before making that same joke. (You're not the first)

Too bad Xbone specs and features were leaked by some bitch. We will never know who came up with things first.

Well, whatever await means, I'm still waiting. Nothing really compels me to play PS4 or Xbone right now. Xbone is just a TV box for me. I buy a shit load of digital PSN and XBL sales, but I don't play them. I have a sickness where I just buy cheap digital games.

Xbone... the new "N" word   Apparently I troll MS now | Evidence | Evidence

and why does their frieds have a ps4s? 

again, irregardless of what "some" people say, half of the people who owns a current gen console owns a ps4 and thats saying a lot of which console is precieved as the better or in this case, since ps4 is leading in market shares, best value among current gen consoles.
