Isn't PS4 just as capable of multi-media as XB0?

Sony at some point always takes the media stuff MS pioneers and adds it to their own.

But since they are below the radar and they talk about exclusives, its totz ok.

Im pretty sure the psx console released in japan before the ps3 could record/stream live TV......soooo yeah

In UK.

PS3 = No LiveTV. Only catch UP BBc Iplayer kinda stuff. Smaller movie rental list and buy list. only 7 apps. No sports at ALL.

360 = FULL Live TV via Sky. Massive movie rental and buy list. Even buy 1080p HD films with smartglass inbuilt. Like The Hobbit recently. 63 apps. Live sports and sports apps for fantasy leagues.

The One looks to capitilise on all these things and then some. Also the share button sounds moot now considering The One has inbuilt DVR that allows you to fully edit your videos before posting them to Youtube, Facebook, Twitter etc. You can add your own music cut and produce short films. etc.

Im glad Ive paid for Live the last 7 years.

lol sony's psx console had live stream tv and recording like 10 years ago, but i think there passion is in making games

Why did you think I bought a PS3 for my parents instead of a 360?

PS3: Play TV £20-£60 (Bought it for £28) can watch and record many free to air channels, if i was living in mainland europe it even supports HD channels. Blu-ray and DVD playback, netflix and lovefilm BBC iplayer, ITV player, 4OD.

360: requires sky and X-box live, for live TV via sky. Netflix, Lovefilm blocked behind paywall.
No Blu-ray player, DVD playback.

Which one is more multimedia capable in the U.K? Hmmm

Please feel free to quote me and add to 360 list with the truth.

PSP Lifetime more than PSV+3DS Lifetime.

Even if you're correct, it seems like MS' marketting will hide the truth from consumers yet offer a packaging that veils it behind a facade, so they will bite and not even realize they're getting sifted.

Exactly! MS always pioneers like DVD and Blu Ray for example... oh wait.

Also remember this? DVR, Video Editing, PS2 games, DVD burning, launched in 2003:

Funny thing about this is that not only can the PS3 do more for us in the UK than the 360, it can do more than the X1. I can't believe they did their whole presentation around a feature that only the US can use.

Please actually state the truth when talking about the 360 and PS3

You mean like turning both my consoles on rigt now?

Everything I said is 100% accurate where I live.

PS3 = Live TV via PlayTV or NOW TV. PSN Store has virtually exactly the same amount of films to buy/rent with 1080p offered as the 360. Sport offered on NOW TV (Sky Sports)and the BBC Sport app.

63 Apps for the 360? Are you having a laugh? Yes it has plenty more than the PS3, but 63? Please.

Hold on your comparing NowTV against proper full Sky???????????????

http://www.nowtv.com/

Now TV lets purchase a pass at a monthly cost for Movies or Sports. Thats it. Nothing else. On top of that the prices are worse than moaning about Xbox Live.

Monthly pass for Movies ( even if you already are a Sky customer ) is 15.99 GBP/ month. The sports is get this 9.99 GBP/day. Yes a day. I pay 30.00 GBP for SKy/month and get all what Now TV offers plus 100+ other channels. And get access via the Xbox 360 free. FREE. FFFFFRRRRREEEEEEE. All Channels on 360 freeeeeeee. Thats Live TV. Not Sports and movies that Sky offer. PS3 in UK does not have live TV. You can watch Live Sport for 9.99GBP/day and thats it. or catch up TV.

And yes the library of HD films on PS3 is smaller than 360. Ironically as well All of Sony Pictures movies are available on 360 in full 1080p some with smartglass. PS3 is better recently with its new releases. But the back catalog of films misses alot that 360 has.

Have you ever used Vita?

Yeah, but I never played around with the interactive and multi-tasking features. I don't own one so I played a few games on demo units.

Tell me about it.

Right now I'm skyping, playing P4G and reading a guide in a browser. All processes are running on Vita and swaping between them is instant.

This is a great example. Vita is an awsome multitasking device, and can do basically everything shown at the Xbone conference minus TV and PiP. PS4 adds dedicated chips for networking, audio, video, and compression/decompression, so it only makes since that it would be even more capable.

Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
