Why would I switch to Sony? If that were to happen, Sony should have something of interest to me and it just does not seem to happen. Ms all the way.

Are there ZERO multiplatform titles of interest to you?  Reality is, if Microsoft is going to be a jerk, and the PS4 gets multiplatform stuff you also want to play, then it makes sense to switch to Sony.  That is, unless you don't mind what I describe and can list exclusives to the Microsoft platform that are of interest to you.  It is a matter of where you play multiplatform stuff.


Why would it make sense to switch over if the other party does not offer anything new and interesting? I don't see Sony making their controller usable ever and MS being a software company shows with xbox UI. Personally I can't see a single reason to pick up Sony console instead of MS console.

So, you are buying the Microsoft console, even if doesn't allow used games, and also requires you to have a consistent Internet connection all the time, or your game will shut down?  You have ZERO interest in multiplatform titles?  Is it that, if things get so bad with the Microsoft side, you will give up gaming completely, instead of getting a Sony console?

I don't need used games. I have an internet connection, which has uptime of 3 years now. That does not matter, because I haven't seen a shred of evidence that "your game will shut down" if you are not connected.

Of course I play multiplatforms. I don't need a sony console to play them, right? I can buy a better product but I should not because you are mad about something which you really don't know anything about?

You apparently didn't see this, did you?

If the connection is interrupted then after a period of time–currently three minutes, if I remember correctly–the game/app is suspended and the network troubleshooter started,” said one of the site’s sources. These people added that as of two weeks ago, this was how things stood  and, most likely, still stand.

 

That is game shutting down, and this thread is based on that being said.  As for "a better product" that is going to be wait and see.  As it is now, with the PS4 have 8 GB of RAM, it is looking like it will actually be the more superior consoe from specs.  But, of course you are free to rationalize your biases behind such words as "the experience".  So, if the PS4 is technically superior, and as easy to code for as the next XBox, and the next XBox has all these issues, and you still go with the next XBox, how does one not conclude either you are a Kinect fanatic or have a fetish attachment to the word "Microsoft"?


Can you show me a link to xbox.com where it says that? I can accept major nelson too, if you can't find any solid information on xbox.com.

Also it would be quite nice to see those specs you talk about. Is there a link for their announcement?

You make those "issues" up for a console which has not even been announced. From my personal experience, Sony does not know how to make an usable UI for their consoles. Ms is much better on software and I am certain that nextbox will be even better than 360 on that front. Multiplatforms will be roughly the same. Do you remember when PS3 was supposed to be sooo much better than 360? The games just happened to be virtually identical.

So, if Sony wants my money they should improve a LOT. I don't see that happening, so I am sticking with what I see as quality product. Problem? #dealwithit
