Ben, the industry and internet community is full of dedicated gamers, and the Sony conference really catered to the gamer in all of us by purely showing games. Capcom's demo looked great too, I don't think you mentioned that.

In terms of business, Microsoft hit it out of the park, and they will do very well this generation with that strategy, for all markets other than the dedicated gamer, which is financially a very smart move.

All in all, in general, I found that people will praise the company they love the most and leave objectivity and reason behind them. Blame human nature at best, stupidity possibly.

MS "business" will now have to fix the used game issues and borrowing issues with games locked to your account with used game pay walls.

Again, you're referring to the dedicated gamer market. I was talking about the expanded market business viability (see underlined).

Then don't count Horizon because that isn't mainline either.1080p and 60 FPS has nothing to do with polygon counts........lol

Offcourse GT fans will see what they want to see. But logically, you can't possibly think a PS3 game looks better then a next gen one. Again, 1080p means less jaggies and 60 fps just means its smoother. Nothing to do with ploygon counts and I am sure Forza is at least 1080p.

Common sense is that both sucked but Sony was clearly focused on gamers, so Sony wins. Anyway, I laughed half an hour because of the animated gif in your signature, wtf is that?

Go to bed.

Wake up.

Read comments.

Realize there isnt any amateur analysts anymore on this site that want to talk about sales, trends, strategies, and consumer impact.

Dissapointed

Hey, read my post, I put some thought into it.

Is it no good?

And I wrote a speculation thread go check it out!

PS4 reveal was mind numbingly long, and nothing they showed made me think "wow, I need to get this, instead of using that money to upgrade my PC which will receive a similar amount of third party support at a cheaper price."

Ah nice! Thanks for putting some thought into it and not just saying PS4 WAS BETTER CAUSE IT HAS GAMES AND IM A GAMER.

Thats not what this threads about. Thanks for actually looking at it from a business perspective.

Sony showed us gameplay and some pretty trailers for games.
Microsoft showed us some pretty trailers and no gameplay.

Sony had developers on stage, talking about the console and what it can do.
Microsoft had Spielberg, on video, talking about Halo and TV.

Sony never said anything anti-consumer.
Microsoft said a lot of anti-consumer stuff.

Microsoft confirmed a lot of stuff the general community didnt want. What people were "afraid" of. The system has to be connected to the Internet. The system has to have Kinect in at all times. The system is shitting on people who rely on the used games market. The system is shitting on people who lend games to friends/family.

In short, Sony put out a conference to get the core gaming audience on board. Microsoft put out a conference to get non-gamers on board. After the Sony conference

This is why the forums (and Internet in general) are so against the Xbox One. "Amazing" is sucking Sony's dick a bit too much when talking about the PS4 conference. The conference lost a lot of points for not actually showing off the console or a "big" game, but it was at least good for gamers in general.

A lot of the negativity regarding Xbox One has actually come from things said after the conference. If they left it as it was and didnt tell us anything extra until E3 - The Xbox One conference wouldnt have been that bad.
