| Machiavellian said: Because only the big cable companies have such apps. At this point in time its a fix for the other cable and satalite providers. As more of those companies develop their own app then then the X1 will easily host those apps as well. |
And what exactly is keeping the PS4 from having those Apps? Since the HDMI pass through thing isn't working out?
Newsflash, the 360 and PS3 have literally tons of media apps. They aren't that difficult to have on PS4 as well.
The X1's Media advantages are in hardware and os design but the problem is that it was designed to attract a market that doesn't really exist.
As you said many gamers expect their consoles to have media features, so why would they search for those features in the gaming machine they are buying?
Its simply power for price. PS4 wins that hands down, hence the sales. The longer they(MS) chase the Wii, the more disillusioned they(MS) will become.
