When there is no dominant console, there are few 3rd party exclusives as it is far more risky



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

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

You know, people whine, bitch and complain that Sony's online is not up to par with the services that are offered by M$. Now that they are requiring PS Plus so that they have the funds to match Xbox Live people are whining,bitching and complaining about that too. Personally I believe that it is an excellent offer considering you get Drive Club in addition to it, which will retail at $59.99 alone.

However I'm on the fence about switching my pre-order due to the stronger lineup up of exclusives that M$ has at launch for Xbone.

There's nothing wrong with multiplatform games. Next gen, devs will not just more easily port between consoles but also to PC, and the developmeant itself will be easier. Meaning games will save approx 6-12 months on development time. No longer will multi-platform development delay a game's release, so why wouldn't they? More platforms = more copies sold = bigger games.

What will prevent them? I don't understand what you mean. BTW I enjoyed the series since I was 14.

LemonSlice: Kids cussing me out each time I beat them in Call of Duty. since you need to pay to play online on Playstation, maybe that will forces kids to not play online...hopefully

The ps4 doesn't cost $400, that much is clear. You pay for PS+ to subsidize the cost of the actual console. If sony had said the system was $600, we would all be bickering. Even if online MP was free, most of us would be complaining but it is actually cheaper that way. Remember ps3's launch?

If you don't like the ps4/X1 direction, get a Wii U but I'm pretty sure Ninty will probably charge for online after wii U as well after seeing both M$ and Sony pull it off. Right now, part of the reason they can't charge is that their network is still in what's essentially "beta" from what I hear and there isn't much to convince people to even pay to play online.

If you don't like consoles just because of this, get a PC but I promise, that platform has it's own problems.

There's no perfect system, you get what best suits your needs. If you want perfection, you'd best start finding a different hobby.

How can they charge for online multiplayer they don't have?

Not having online multiplayer, and not many of the people who have the system playing online are two different things.  People repeating this statement is a waste of text.

Arcturus: I'm aware the full year subscription of PS + is 10 dollars cheaper and better value.

What I mean is that Xbox have Xbox Live and Playstation have PS Plus, both service look pretty similar on paper.


If you want the Japanese gaming support and a cheaper 100 dollar system (with no camera, motion controls) - the PS4 is the way to go imo. Unless you are interested in games like Dead Rising, Halo and Quantum Break.

.

I still don't know what that is.

You think kids will have problems buying prepaid PS+ cards at GameStop? And sure I trolled some as a kid (no mic back then though lol) but I had a lot of fun and just as I wouldn't want anybody taking that part of life away from me, I wouldn't want to take it from anyone else.
