Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Prediction made in February: Microsofts NextBox is a region locked media box with few games... *Revisited*

As much as I would LOVE to believe you, you are not a reliable source.

Hopefully this is true though. Microsoft better be worried about the PS4. That shit is gonna be awesome.

OK, keep creating fantasy threads with mythic insider. How he is know anything about MS plans and why he is told them to you and not to other sites (they actually can check his "facts") - beyond my imagination.

And i'm just will be waiting for awesome MS conference.

You telling me there's a source in Sweden of all places telling you this?

I didn't say that.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Hopefully come e3 it'll be clear wether or not I'm relieable or not. Have you seen my PS4 e3 predictions?

I'll try to put this in the same way as my source put it to me (I don't know if this is speculation or what is actually happening right now over at MS): "They're running around shitting their pants [...] They fucked up."

Just saw this thread. At least now it's crystal clear which console manufacturer your source favors.

About the only unexpected thing Sony did was increasing the PS4's amount of RAM, everything else Microsoft should have been prepared for. Even if Microsoft now had to make changes to their RAM, that's nowhere near as problematic as Sega's panic decision to put another processor into the Saturn in reaction to the specs of the PS1.

I think you might see other unexpected things coming from Sony - it all depends on how MS is reacting now. And I'll say this about my source; I think he really does favor the PS4, but only because of all the things coming to it. Just look around and read what other devs is saying right now. They're THROWING praise on Sony at the moment, because they-listened-to-the-developers. They gave the devs the console of their dreams. Wouldn't you love that if you were in the same boat? And besides, my source have said that the 720 is a great console, much better than PS360 and Wii U - but the crazy shit Sony is pulling off right now... Even I love PS4 right now; but I'm still undecided what console to get (I just love me some Zelda...)

Hopefully MS will do some drastic changes and pull off an amazing e3!

I'm having a hard time believeing that MS would shoot themselves in the foot like that if they want to expand upon the incredible progress the 360 made them since launch.
Region locks etc are medieval features that no one should apply to anything optical today.

Thing is though, it's not uncommon for companies to shoot themselves in the foot. Just take a look at N64, GC and PS3... And like every Sega system after Genesis :P

I don't get it. Why "Hopefully"?

When MS screw something up, besides mythical core gamers abandonment (don't understand exclusive bullshit, playing DmC and MGR:R on my Xbox 360)?

It is clear as day, what yours "facts" are just drawing on the water.

Am I the only one that doesn't want 40 launch games? It's taken me 7 years to get to 90ish games and there is no way I will be able to afford more than 5 or 6 at launch along with a new console.
