Big thanks to Sony for their hyper competitive PS4

The pressure has been on Microsoft for months now and after a few 180's on several features / policies it is now the internet which is operating a 180.

Here is a list of all things Xbox buyers will have Sony to thank for :

 

- No always-online DRM policy

- No mandatory Kinect usage

- Uber friendly Indie Development environment with full access to all gaming hardware

- Downloadable Fifa 14 included with every pre-order

- Exclusive Fifa 14 Ultimate Team Legends mode [most popular mode]

- Exclusive Call of Duty Ghosts DLC and multiplayer features

- Exclusive Call of Duty Ghosts dedicated servers

- Exclusive Europe bundle with CoD: Ghosts

- Exclusive content for The Division



Around the Network

"You're welcome." - SONY



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

Thank you pre-order numbers*



Platinums: Red Dead Redemption, Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet, Terminator Salvation, Uncharted 1, inFamous Second Son, Rocket League

Fifa 14 with every preorder in select markets. That is the least compelling argument in the list because ps4 plus fifa is still cheaper



Exclusive ?

More like xbox first,

also, nobody is stopping sony or nintendo to open up their own servers to host COD because that's not thanks to microsoft having "cloud" features on the console. It's due to servers, like everything stored in the beggining of the internet you know. Till nowadays.

Cloud is just a more friendly way of calling it and making really dumb people understand the concept of always accesible servers.



Around the Network

Yeah. I guess Playstation buyers have to thanks Microsoft for online, but I don't see any "thank you" anywhere. Just souless arguments.



Now where does it say servers for ghost is an xbox only feature



Competition is always good. Kudos to Microsoft for their efforts. But still getting PS4.

Good point, I really hope that something like this isn't an xbox exclusive because I planned on buying this on ps4 to play with friends.  Would be a real shame, this is something every cod fan has wanted whether they realize it or not.  If it is, I guess its time to start convincing my cod gaming buddies to plunge for an X1, gonna be a tough fight though.  Maybe with this news, they'll change their minds lol.

Because you are such a fan of Alizee here is a nice remix of "J'ai pas vingt ans" by none other than Benny Benassi (amateurish montage though)
