"N"ext Revolution?

Right. Like "announcing" is the innovation now. I bet you believe two guys at Valve were then told to code a few lines within a few weeks and it magically worked. Even if it was a quick change at their end, the games to be released had to adopt new code to work that way and launch without being fully installed. So it's more like time to change Steam + time to change upcoming games + time to actually release those games.

Try to stay reasonable when you like something. This is a business of years of development. Nothing happens within a few weeks/months and people can have the same ideas; they are not unique across all human minds. I'm waiting for someone to drop in and post "Linux had this back in the 90s - Linux is teh gamni innovat0r" for some small program just to make this look even more funny.

Did I hit some nerve or something? They announced first, so they arrived first. That's it. I'm not saying Steam copied, because it really takes time to develop this, but Sony needed some years.

From what he have, they announced first, that's it. Stop being unreasonable and act like I was saying it was a copy or something. I'm just saying it isn't wasn't avaialable at years, for all games.

Edit: and that said, it doesn't change the fact that, right now, all PS4 games use the system and are ready to play with less than 2 min installs or with downloads that aren't even 25% finished. All games. Give them the credit they deserve on this case. It's not "hey, I had 2 or 3 games in the past 5 years that did that too", it's "all my PS4 games are like that".
