So I guess you want the PS$ to ONLY do games. No broswer thanks, no multimedia, certainly no Movie or TV apps thanks and get rid of that PS Eye and wandy thing. Surely you cant be considering a PS4 purchase.


oh... and I also pre-ordered because I'm loaded. 

Well it's supposed to be a gaming console ain't it? If you want all of those multimedia things, how about buy a PC or a tablet? They treat games as second class too.

As a comment from one article i saw said, Microsoft is trying to compete with Apple and Google rather than Sony and Nintendo and it shows with the Xbox One conference yesterday

Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

I think people need to stop defending companies that shit on the consumers


That gif is all over neogaf lol, this one too actually :)

On a more serious note though; let's just hope they change their stanse about this whole DRM thing. If the fans are loud enough they won't have a choice but to comply.

What you talking about?  No.. its because I really want to play the games and franchises that I like...  Are you suggesting the big franchises I like wont happen?  and that all the new exclusives and IP's will be shit? 

Those things dont mean the games arent there?  why cant you people see beyond that?

.....but you haven't seen these exclusive games and franchises yet. 

What is a PS$? I dont' get it. If you're referring to PS4 then here's my answer. Yes, I do only want it for games. I myself don't even use Netflix or Hulu, let alone all any other premium servies that might appear like HBO Go. I am buying PS4 primarity for games, It is obviously expected for the PS4 to have an internet browser and popular apps such as Netflix. I know these things will be there but I am not basing my purchase on these features specifically. As to PS Eye and the "wandy thing" I own one. Its collecting dust. I'd love for them to get rid of it, not my thing. I am considering buying a PS4 sice Sony has not only said it is a platform for gamers, they have shown us that is.

$ is shift 4, I held onto the shift for too long... stop looking for stuff that isnt there.

how have they shown you that?

by showing 4 games.

MS have 15 exclusive games coming.

"MORE games confirmed"

Well, Sony's PS4 event was primarily focused on games. If that's not enough then what about their stance on indies?

Talk is cheap. Obviously PS4 will have more games than what were shown at the event. Sony had multiple on-stage demos such as Knack, Watch Dogs and Killzone at their conference. Microsoft had zero on-stage demos for games.

Showing glimpses is cheap too. Let me see release dates. Somehow I have a feeling 2013 will have more Xbox exclusives then PS4 ones. What then?

Title is a bit misleading, since its built for everyone. Gamers watch tv too ya know.

I know, crazy right? :P


Yes, I watch TV.  I'm a Classic and Matt Smith Doctor Who fan.  So I enjoy Doctor Who for its TV programs, not for the video games based on the franchise regardless of the fact that they all suck.  I'm a gamer.  I primarily buy consoles to play games, not multi-media function.  So I make my primary console of choice that one that obviously puts games FIRST.

and for that they already have a device to do so.  I think the article is referring to the fact that most core gamers want a device focused on games.


Nintendo tried that with the Gamecube. How'd that work out? Gamers want a lot more than just a box that plays games. I'm a hardcore gamer and I love the NFL and watching tv shows. I also use Skype quite a bit. All things considered, I'm quite pleased with what MS is offering with Xbox One so far.

Having everything I love streamlined into one device is something that excites me.
