| J_Allard said: Why would everyone be better off playing them on PS4? I prefer Live to PSN and I prefer the Xbone controller. And who is to say MS steps up to the plate and pays for development of great games like Dead Rising 3 or Titanfall if not to improve their stable of games over the PS4? And good for Sony that they can do the same thing. Not sure what that has to do with Kinect though. |
It's never been about just games. The only thing Kinect removal did was lower the entry price.
A temporary solution to a greater problem.
As a brand PS is just larger, more well known World Wide.
Even in the US, where Xbox is a major contender, it only got that way because of the advantages the 360 had and the disadvantages that the PS3 had.
This gen, the XB1 basically has few real advantages, and when I say real I mean not inherently subjective and equal more or less. With this definition that leaves the XB1's advantages in its media features and Kinect. With the removal of the Kinect, the price becomes more competive but value is decreased as well and the Kinect advantage is basically nullified as it becomes a subjective issue just like Live vs PSN or PSExclusives vs XB Exclusives. Specifically Kinect vs PS Camera.
Not to mention that PS4 has virutally none of the disadvantages of its predecessor.
This is not a pretty picture for the One, and while it doesn't mean that the XB1 will flop, it does mean that it will face competition approaching that of the PS2 even in its strongest region, the US.
