I'm pretty sure all three are concerned with the business side of things. Sony and MS don't sell hardware at a loss from the goodness of their hearts.

Dis, both are shit, just stick to PC and Wii U lol. Maybe PS4 down the road for cheap if JRPGs flood the PS4 would be a smart choice, otherwise, just avoid both.

I've heard of this vita, thing. I believe they are colorful boxes that collect dust in gamestop. I've never seen one in the hands of a person.

I want to know how he downloaded The Last of Us in this manner, because the PSN version does not have a seperate download and install. 

The PSN version of The Last of Us makes you download an installer (~150MB). You start the installer like playing a game and it starts to download. Once the game reaches ~70% you start playing the game, and it continues to download and install as you play. 

It took me about 2 hours to download 18.2GB and then I was off and playing. I have a 20mbps connection and that is exactly on the nose for data to connection speed. He must have 115mbps internet to have downloaded ~26GB in a half hour. 

BUSTED!!!

Streamlined UI and terrific desktop apps like Steam and full customization of all things from hardware setup and acceleration to incredible mods and tweaks in games. Incredible catalogue of games spanning from today and all the way back to Commodore 64 times via emulators, a platform that has form technical marvels and simple gems alike, from Half-Life 2 (which was mind blowing at release) to games like Unepic and Terraria, massive multimedia functionality and connectivity, amazing deals through digital distribution and lots of good, free content from many developers. Free to play online, no restrictions, region locks or insane user agreement terms (unless you use Origin...).

I still have room for a tiny bit of console gaming, racing games and things like GTA keep me somewhat intrigued, I also bought The Last of Us yesterday but still haven't played it. I do notice that consoles interest me less and less though, they're sort of merging into beige lumps of everything and nothing, focusing on too many things besides gaming, things social features, stupid motion controls and other things I never cared about.

Do you think i don't know that. 

I would harldy call that second place.  In the PS2 era ONLY the PS2 won.  The Xbox sold less than a 6th as many consoles as the PS2, and only a couple mil more than the Wii.  Not only that, but MS incurred massive amounts of debt while at least the Gamecube profited.  So if anyone is counting I would put Xbox in last place that gen as well.

Well if hoping for the same outcome for the PS3/PS4 as with the PS1/PS2 (record breaking sales for each gen) makes Sony insane then call them so. Who the fuck doesn't like success. Sony doesn't want a different outcome than the PS1/PS2 era's, they were reaching sales never even heard of, but they are insane? Kay, bud.

It's not only the tech that flows the industry, its also the software that comes with it. Sony went out of their way to branch out to other studios with ideas and impressions of what the PS4/Dualshock 4 should be like while making it affordable right away. Higher power isn't the only way to bring new ideas to video games but it does help alot when you have all this extra power to harness than you did before. Games will be easier play, more compatible, will have cloud integration (just like One), Gaikai service in 2014, 4K support for movies, as well as easier to develop for than PS3. Insanity I tell you.

But overall you bring up some really good points about MS and it is clear that MS knew what they wanted to do and I was all for it because everything that they have done for the gaming industry has turned out great. MS is a smart company and has views for the future but that's not to say that the competition is lagging. Sony has the biggest part of gaming for two generations in a row, absolute market domination. MS is going to have a alot of trouble if they have the #1 spot in the back of their mind.

Well, I know this topic is hiting a nerv for Sony loyalists :)
I actually think you are right, the PS4 is a 360+.
Not that it is a bad thing, after all better CPU/GPU and memory is the right thing to do.
This is exactly what I was thinking after watching the PS4 reveal...

Microsoft in the other hand is really trying some innovations even if it is more risky.
But can we blame Sony for playing the safe way after what gappen with the PS3? (Financial)

Alright now Sony fans are going to jump out of their chair and bash my post like crazy hehe...
