Forums - Gaming - does the X1's 180 prove that Sony has the better vision for the gaming industry?

It proves Nintendo has the best vision since they don't even know what DRM is and don't let consumers pay for a basic service that is called online gaming.

i love the term 180, its just a great pun. 

Its a clever pun that fits the situation and what they got going on perfectly

 

I wouldn't be surprised if that name gets used throughout the whole next generation

I'd prefer it if people typed "One80". Just makes for a better reference.

Ooo, I like that a lot.

In regards to the question, yes. When you “lose” E3 on the level they did despite showing more new games, you have done something unbelievably wrong.

Nintendo has online? cool.

anyway, taking legal action against piracy on the wii and DS after the Wii U and 3DS have come out isnt exactly a good vision.

Sony is more in touch with the common gamer than Microsoft is. Microsoft has a solid FPS foundation though, i'll give them that. Microsoft knows how to lure them but when they show them who they truly are they have to revert. The Xbox One is the console Microsoft has always wanted to create, they just waited until gamers let their guard down.

Everyone makes mistakes.

Remember that time Sony released a $600 console? They were actually under the illusion they would sell like hotcakes simply because it had a Sony logo on it.

Remember the Vita? Nuff said!

How much of the PS3 did Sony have to take back? Zero. How much of the new Xbone policies had to be overturned. Almost everything and they are still making new policies. In fact the PS3's first year outsold the 360's. 

The PS3 took rumble out of their controllers because it was last gen.

Xbone... the new "N" word   Apparently I troll MS now | Evidence | Evidence

I think it shows that Sony has the most 'marketable' concepts for console gaming, not necessarily better.

For example I still believe DRM was a good policy, and I'm sad to see that policy go. I think it was better for the future of gaming definitely.

Yes, it means just that.

Although it's not so much because of what Sony does is good, they are basically just keeping things the way they are or make them worse (i.e. online multiplayer now behind a paywall too). In other words, Microsoft's vision was disastrously bad.

No, it proves Nintendo has the better vison for the gaming industry.



It proves that ms got greedy and that gamers don't like anal from companies

I think there is a great risk that this will be the last console generation, simply because now both Sony and MS ARE playing it safe. Gamers are conservative by nature, and that is why they should try to push them forward like Nintendo did, not just presenting upgraded Machines.

just out of curiosity when did Ninty push anyone forward? Outside of the WIi and DS and even then those two especially WIi was FAR behind the other consoles in just about every other department. This innovation speak is funny because it seems like people forget everything prior to WIi those were all just upgraded machines. And no one complained. if we take out the hardware upgrades these companies played safe just about all of the time. PS brought the DVD format to consoles, MS bought online to consoles sucessfully; keyword sucessfully. 


You are focusing to much on hardware, online and such. What Nintendo did with the Wii (and this is coming from a huge SEGA fan) was to broaden the gaming market so that more people could enjoy gaming. What the DS did was to introduce new and unique ways of controlling the games, long before we had smartphone gaming. These are important contributions and the console manufacturers need to take these risks in order to push the industry forward.

What do I care about the prelaunch? Dude...you're a gamer. besides...whats the name of this topic anyway? I forgot.

Idk, you're the one who called it the "worst prelaunch ever".

And are you not a gamer? So you're a gamer... all these policies you hated have been changed. You can stop complaining about them now. It will make you a happier person.

The topic of the thread pertains to Sony potentially having a better vision for the gaming industry because they are simply sticking to the status quo that all 3 companies utilized this gen, and that Nintendo is already utilizing before Sony even launches into next gen. You're saying Sony is more in touch with gamers because they take things away from gamers after launch in order to more quickly reach a slim model or some hilarious horse crap.



More like M$ couldn't change gaming industry anyhow they like...
