Not likely. Even if the PS4 obliterates the X1 for the first few months, MS have given themselves the option of throwing out the Kinect and regaining the ground lost by undercutting Sony.

I thought the article was a genuine attempt at humor. It Worked, very funny!

EDGE made their bed. (sure, they will pick up a few extra sales from sony's mob, but their complete lack of respect for Nintendo, and their sony nut hugging ways will have turned a lot of MS/Ninty fans away from the magazine)

Gotta love the "i ought to mention Nintendo: poor Nintendo, There you go" line too. (what a tosser)

When they go under due to complete bias, they will only have themselves to blame.

yep!

because console specific mags go under right?

Poor Nintendo.... lol.

Edge has been one of the toughest critics of gaming for years now. Interesting to see them so unanimously behind the PS4.

Would a Nintendo gamer even read EDGE magazine? (serious question)

Having an opinion doesn't mean your biased. Edge was harsh towards the PS3 and 1st party games, very harsh in the first 3 years. Now that they like the PS4 they are biased?

They have an opinion just like everyone here and on other sites. Then again anyone who says anything bad about a topic is automatically biased and a fanboy lol

"I don’t remember there ever having been such a consensus as to the winner before launch."


Seriously? Did this guy just start gaming yesterday?

The PS2 - goes without saying. The hype in the gaming mags was through the roof.

The PSP - Dan Hsu, EGM editor in chief (and a respectable writer BTW), summed up the general consensus best, "The DS touch screen is genius but that won't keep it from being second to Sony's PSP".

The PS3 - was supposed to "Dreamcast" the 360 and Nintendo was to be lucky to have 15% of the console market for the 7th gen. Sony's E3 2005 target renders furthered this opinion.

Once the Vita rolled around people were a bit more skeptical due to recent history and the state of the handheld gaming space, but like Rol pointed out, that didn't stop Moriarty from IGN (not a respectable writer BTW) from declaring that the Vita would handily best the 3DS.

While the PS4 may well dominate this coming generation, where the hell does this guy get the idea that this kind of lopsided fanfare has never been present before?

so putting on the front cover of there magiazne  "this is your next console" on top of a ps4 with no sight of the x1 isnt biased?   showing a tank version of the ps4 and a helemt that was shot with the xbox logo on it isnt biased?
