PS4 will play used games, no doubt about it. I wish this stupid rumor would die already. It's nothing more than haters trying to hold on to every last straw of hate. The man already said it would play used games.

That never was a rumor on PS4 side... not that I have read... now in the Nextbox side everyday a new developer "confirm" that rumor.


I think even for the nextbox that's nothing more than a dirty rumor. Do MS want it? Yes, they'll nickel and dime their customers till their out of nickels and dimes.  But will they do it, fearing the back lash and loss of consumers? No they wont. Even MS has the common sense not to do this.

I wonder if we can still game share on PSN

I dont think PSN allows for that.

As if there ever was a doubt. Sony is always focused on the core gamer.



Thats completely false. PSX and PS2 relied A LOT on casual gamers and had TONS of shovelware.


Wrong. The PSX and PS2 were about 60/40 when it came to their libraries. the Wii have like 20/80 shovelware.



Those estimation you take out of your ass dont change the fact that the majority of PSX and PS2 owners were casual gamers.

On 155 million console sold it's normal to have a lot of casuals but what was really good about PS1(PSX is another thing dude) and PS2 is that they had games for everyone... from the hardcore to the casual, everyone cold find his type of game... the same can't be said about the Wii, that's the difference. ;)

So what happens if MS blocks used games and Sony doesn't?


GameStop will probably only advertise PS4

GameStop will refuse to sell the 720, so in other words Microsoft will be fucked!

It's a two console limit. So it should carry over to ps4, Right now you can have two psvita/psp and two ps3. So im sure it will be the same for ps4.

The Wii had the lowest rated games of all of the consoles even though it sold the most and also had the lowest attach rate. The PS2 and PSX had the higher attach rates  compared to Nintendo in all gens since the Playstation arrived. Look it up if you want. I am not talking out of my ass. 



PSX and PS2 users were mostly casual gamers, deal with it, is not a bad thing. Plus Wii has nearly the same console/game tie ratio as PS3, does that change anything?

Whatever you say. Sony has always had a far more proportional amount of core to casual titles compared to Nintendo. As for the title...

"clearly focused on developers & gamers."

How in the last twenty years has this simultaneously applied to Nintendo?

Excuse me? One, PSX was the name of the prototype of the first PS Sony console, and that way was named by the industry until the redesign of the same came out. Your second paragraph doesnt even make sense, at least you agree PSX/2 were driven mainly by casuals (GTA is casual). AND im not comparing it to Wii, we all know Wii is the casual heaven.

So tell me why Sony released in Japan another product called like that? oO

It seams you are not informed so next time do a little research ;)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSX_%28DVR%29

PS1 is no more a prototype so why call it with the name of another released product? :)

GameCube memes were, easy to develop for, not a multimedia device, a machine that plays games. And the developers part, well, you can blame Nintendo for not sucking 3rd parties cock, but some people actually have values greater than money, like pride, and self respect.
