Man Xbox One must be one big piece of sh%t.

For everything they announced about it so far, there is not a single aspect that posters at VGchartz don't have any issues with and can see as a positive.


In the other hand, Gaikai is great.

I don't think anyone said Gaikai was great(?). There are so many straw-man arguments happening it's just ridiculous. People lost faith in this idea after Onlive evaporated into nothingness.

Also, there's quite a big difference between a streaming service and cloud computing, so no-one's comparing the two.

The main reason for the excitement regarding Gaikai is the sheer volume of classic games that will be available. I think you have to be a complete non-gamer to NOT get excited by that.

Now if you take the above stance as "Sony fanboy" then I don't know what to say.

I don't know why we "gamers" are so skeptical and resistant about new concepts, even though we are in general techie enthusiasts. I completely understand the current limitations of cloud computing, and I'm also one of the guys who believe it's still not feasible today, but people laugh at anything MS say in this regard. Someone has to do the first step if we need to  get somewhere, like in the early days of 3D games full of glitches or even now with motion controls. I don't like kinect and I can't think of any games available today which could change my mind, but I admire the concept and it's inheritent potential.

And no, I don't think that what you said is "fanboyism", since it was full of reasonable arguments. Unfortunatelly, this is not the case for most of the other comments in this site.
