Time to PM ethomaz now. |
I'm not denying but think like that...
PS4 has outsold XB1 in every market XB1 released in, with the exception of Australia... turned false.
PS4 has outsold XB1 in every market XB1 released in, with the exception of New Zeland... turned false.
PS4 has outsold XB1 in every market XB1 released in, with the exception of Brazil...
It is hard because Xbone is ~R$1,900 and PS4 ~R$3,500 today here... but everything can happen and GFK didn't release any word about PS4/Xbone in Brazil... so we need to wait.
That give me the change to share a full anecdotal story from my little brother called Vinícius 
He works at some big retail in Brazil called Magazine Luiza in a city called Jales (SP) and until the last weekend the store didn't received any Xbone or PS4 to sell... so he was excited to put his hands in the when the consoles get into store to be sold to consumers because they can play outside the work the console that is opened to display pourposes.
He already played a lot of PS4 because I own one and I was in vacation in my parent's home in the city called Santa Albertina (he lives with my parents and works in Jales that is far way 32km... travel every day).
So they finally received the Xbone... Every employee started to work to put a big 72" Bravia at the center of the store to plug the Xbone and play it before the store open (consumer will can play after the store open too).
But when they turned on the console the shadow of the DRM happened... internet connection required to start the console.
Everybody got disapointed and hate the fact they can play a game (they rent a game jsut to this pourpose... R$15 a day)... they tried to use the 3G connect of two cellphones to install the day one patch but they break the month limite of data tranfer of the cellphone plan they had without finish the patch download (I guess they thought it was some 500MB lol).
The first impression of the Xbone on store was bad... really bad but they wanted to play yet... so one of the coworkers of my brother took the console to home to install the patch with the internet.
Everybody happy in the other day? No... more disappointment.
The guys installed the patch but forget to create a Live account... so when they turned the console again they need internet to create the live account.
At the end they didn't played the game and have to return paying the R15 without play nothing.
The consoles are at stores to be sold without any in display because they can't make it work due all the shadow of the DRM.
My brother impressions?
+ He found the console big and ugly
+ He found the power brink unbeliable huge... he never saw one so big in his life (his words... not mine)
+ He found the Xbone's controller less durable (worst material) than 360's controller
Nice future Microsoft 
PS. Because all the issues with the internet to play... they thought that the console needs to be checked in the internet every 24 hours... I need to explain to it that it is not more this case and the console will works fine after the day one patch.
