I find it hard to believe that Microsoft is having trouble keeping up with demand, especially now that people are cancelling their pre-orders. 720p, anyone? |
Gonna go ahead and assume sarcasm on this one.
The broad demographic of consumers are 100% oblivious to these kinds of things. In fact a huge chunk of those interested in PS4 are 100% unaware they have to pay for online on the console.
Same with X1 and the weaker ports. The things that are discussed heavily in forum wars will have little to no bearing on hardware sales. Marketing, exclusive titles, and price will have far more impact than silly resolution wars 95% of the demographic couldnt care about.

I am going to disagree with you and say that anyone pre-ordering or buying a PS4 or XB1 at or soon after the launch date is very intuned and informed with everything regarding that console. These are not the casual wii type consoles that causes the casuals confusion. These are so called "hard-core" consoles for core gamers.
There are unlikely to be grannies in the queue waiting for a PS4.. unless someone else ask them to. Casuals don't care about getting a PS4 at launch.
To play what? Sony Sing song party?
Yes there will be "confused" buyers but not as many as you think on the these so-called "gamer" consoles.

Are you standing in stores taking pre orders talking to consumers and taking their pre orders? No? I am.
What i posted isnt my opinion its a fact. Most honestly dont care but your average consumer litteraly look nothing like the people who post on forums. And the belief only core gamers pre order consoles is an absolute myth.

completely anacdotal evidence, but the marines in my class have been talking about the next gen systems and what systems they want to get.
and they still think and say things like,
"the xbox has dumb policies, no used games, and you have to be online all the time"
and my favorite, "i just heard the PS4 games are 1080, and xbox only does 960" where he got 960 from, i dont know, lol. but the point is it just goes to show how ignorant people can hear fleeting comments, and cling to them.

yup, I still hear people clinging to that early gossip as well. If anyone buys a game based on something they heard but don't understand, they either gat mony ta burn or they are just............you know
