When I first saw the Xbox 360 dashboard with the ability to customize my soundtracks, jump into online games, chat, download DLC, send messages, etc. (I missed the original Xbox almost entirely), I felt like it was truly next gen. Call of Duty 2 alone was quite amazing. When I got my PS4/Xbox One, I was stunned to find that I actually LOST features that I'd relied on with my PS3/360. So, yeah. |
Very true.
Granted, some or most of those will eventually find there way back on the new platforms, but the notion I had that the PS4 would become my default media player when I bought it died instantly. No media remote, no external HDD support, no media codec support, no music support, etc.
Although if I remember correctly, it wasn't until after a series of updates to the PS3 that it replaced my PC as a media center.
Doesn't really change my opinion on the new consoles since I buy them to play games and watch optical discs and Netflix, but even if it weren't for the 7th gen games that I want to play, I'd still keep the PS3 plugged in for the media remote alone.
