Forums - Gaming - Sony and Microsoft are screwed at launch! (according to this guy, also conspiracy about delayed games)


I don't get all the hate. So, you put 2~milion units of a new product out there that uses network intensivily, and its not works well, oh, tottally unexpected. Reversal or not, doesn't really matters. The thing is: we don't have this scenario anymore, thanks to negative reception, its a good thing we still have this power.



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

Sure, because the CEO of Sony'll say: Hey guys, yes, our online service is a disaster and you can't play good online....

well he is evasive on the way PS4 games would be sold, which X1 never confirmed either. So yeah, your point was moot as moot gets.


He was never evasive. Stop spewing your utter nonsense bullshit. He came out and said it multiple times that used games would play where ever. Why the fuck would he respond " yes you can buy and play used games where ever you like with no drm policy" when the question was simply about used games. Expecting any more than shu gave is just idiotic because no one would respond any other way to the question. You claim he was ecasive when he directly answered the question is just closing your eyes plugging your ears and screaming "i cant hear you."

Well that was really interesting to hear. Nobody will give me back the minutes of life I wasted listening to this idiot, but at least we now know how misterxmedia's voice sounds..
Here's the catch about what it is all about: Beginning with 2012 ANY device with a blu-ray drive must have a) no more analogue video out and b) drm copy protection on hdmi out.
You can immediately see the problem: If you press the share button, your stream (which goes through hdmi-out) is copy protected. Of course there are easy ways to remove the protection, but how is your average reviewer able to know that? How is the console maker going to handle the problem? You can simply disable blu-ray movie output, hence you no longer are required to copy protect the hdmi out. Cool solution, but people who want to watch movies would be slightly pissed. So both console manufacturer are somehow in a Catch-22 situation as far as drm issues are concerned...

The only thing that is not only "very likely", but also just logical is that you need to have the PS3 game inside to play the upgraded PS4 AC for example, because you bought exactly 1 copy, which you can play on PS3 and PS4 if you upgrade.

The network problems -> native resolution drop is so absurd even a double facepalm wouldn't accurately describe the fail behind that "leak"

Same with the DRM policy change -> network issues thing. While there might be network issues these have nothing to do with that policy change, but with the ways used for data exchange - if anything less DRM checks should lighten the burden on the network.

And yes, it sounds funny, because it's so absurd.



Shu calls this guy stupid! Awesome stuff, what a pathetic video.

Its not only Sony but Microsoft are having even more issue and via Neogaf, it's said XboxLive won't be finalize/fix with in the next six months. This is starting to get out of hand...



Don’t follow the hype, follow the games
