Next time if you are going to talk nonsense at least be prepared to back it up and you can avoid situations like this. Calling people close minded won't help you explain your wacky anti-MS positions mo betta, sorry ;) Lets just ignore those two things, make the replies a lot shorter.
| S.T.A.G.E. said: Tapped out for what? I stated that when Sony took it and accepted having inferior multiplats. PS3 gamers had to accept that. There is no spin that Sony could've done. They would've just had to make sure they were the lead platform because otherwise their port would've come out inferior. The PS3 was hard to develop for. |
Tapped out in regards to inferior 3rd party games. You said they just accepted it and moved on. You're also saying that MS's deals with games like Dragon Age is evidence that they are not just accepting Xbone's similar position. But Sony had deals with games like that last gen too. So if this weird logic applies to MS where they are just so desperate to cover up their consoles shortcomings with 3rd party deals, it would have to apply to Sony last gen as well. Or wait let me guess, were they making these same types of deals for completely different reasons? Is this another one of those things where when Sony does it, it's #4theplayers and when MS does it, it's cancer?
| S.T.A.G.E. said: Sony had deals with plenty of publishers for DLC. No one is arguing this. The games still worked, you know. The main platform to showcase console multiplats was the Xbox 360. Rarely did you ever see the PS3 being used to commercialize multiplats. I used Dragon Age: Inquisition as an example because aside from them getting DLC the game is being shown on a Microsoft platform, which is inferior this gen. Its obvious they are being paid for this to happen. Microsoft is also struggling with the media about their precious cloud and how it will equalize the graphical gap between them and Sony. Hope it happens soon because they are starting to sound really sour. Its like they can't accept it. Its just like when they found out how powerful the PS4 was and then reports came in that MS got inspired to quickly change the clock speed on the Xbox One. |
So Dragon Age is being shown on Xbox One. Big deal. Again, Sony had that same deal with 3rd party companies last gen. Including the same publisher as Dragon Age, EA. We can continue to go around and around and around on this where you make this claim about how MS is so different because they are doing this and then I can remind you Sony did the same thing but why not shorten things up and you just explain how it's different when Sony does it?
Also, no shit EA is getting paid for timed exclusive DLC and marketing for Dragon Age. Just like they were paid by Sony last gen for those same things with MoH or Ass Creed (Ubi) or Battlefield, etc. It's like they couldn't accept the PS3 being an inferior multiplatform machine.
| S.T.A.G.E. said: Did Sony fight when the media criticized them for not having Cross chat like the Xbox 360? No. They said they just didn't have the ram to make cross chat happen, but they put it in the PSP Vita and that was all the evidence we needed that they would put it in the next console. Thats how they do things. They don't cover it up or fight it, they roll with it. |
Oh, did the media criticize them for no cross game voice chat? That's news to me because I honestly don't remember a single media outlet doing that, let alone a big media outlet that would actually matter. In fact I remember most praising PSN simply because it was free, and excusing its shortcomings (like no cross game chat) because it was free. I also don't remember the media or Sony making a big deal about the PSV having it, probably because it wasn't a big deal to them.
Also, it took Sony 5 years to finally tell everyone what we already knew: the PS3 could not handle cross game chat. Wow, sounds like they were under tremendous fire from the media, only took them 5 years to finally admit it.
