I hear the complaint about the conf wasn't for games. I don't think that is really the issue for anyone at the moment, it has more to do with the console hardware itself. Its so far Anti-Consumer its not even funny. Not to mention so much side talking it would make you dizzy. -Doesn't block used games........but does require a mandatory fee to unlock one. -Doesn't Require Online........but does need you to verify via internet every 24hrs of play that your game is legit. Oh and how exactly is "Cloud Computing" suppose to work if not consistantly online? -Requires connect to function...really? WHY do this to yourself? What about that devices says that I should HAVE to have it plugged in for my console to function? -The Design of the box itself, looks like I should be sticking VHS tapes in it. Worst....design...ever. -Per Usual, the games that were shown, mostly multiplat. Forza looks nice, as does Quantum. -Thing just screams over-engineered. So I am suppose to pay extra for basically a media hub adapter? You will basically be paying for MS to overlay their advertisements over your TV watching. -Controller takes batteries.....again. Cannot believe they back peddled on this. I hear some weak argument that it takes less effort to change batteries once a month as opposed to plugging in once a day but rechargeable also saves you lots of money in the long run. My current controllers still last a few days without being plugged, and there is never the fear of not having any batteries to make them work. I can't believe every single one of the Rumor nightmares came true. So at this rate, MS IS behind in game development by 6months. They will probably show up at E3 with "15 Exclusive" DLC packs for several large 3rd Party titles :/ could not be more bemused by this reveal.... |
This is basically how I feel like.
And I thought the Kinect was suppose to be built-in to the console but I guess they need it somewhat seperate to make it more easier to properly place the Kinect detector.
I found this worse then when PS4 had a touch pad instead of touch screen, and with NO built-in microphone for someting that has a built-in speakerphone (Mono). I could have dealed with no NFC, but why no motion sensors when you can use them to steer like a car, like Sonic Racing Transformed on Wii U, but I guess they don't need motion sensors in the PS4 controller but it did need a microphone & 3 to 4 inch touch screen.
At least the PS4 is in a way better position it would seem.
But I think is is all going to end up making the Wii U look really good by no later then 2015 Holiday.
This year's E3 gotten so much more interesting and it's starting to look like the Wii U might be able to get more spotlight then originally thought, despite the PS4 & ONE being the only new things to be shown.
Well that's just my opinion.
I just want some 3DS news at E3 for myself personally, and also any other companies new 3D tech. Just anything new in 3D anything at E3 in entertainment really is what I'm waiting for.
I use to love Home Consoles way more, but the 7th gen left a bad taste for me across the board.
