Forums - Gaming - Gamers Attack Adam Sessler Over Controversial PS4, Xbox One Comments

On the topic of Sessler, who cares. I wanted 1080p60 this gen too. But guess what? Neither of the consoles are going to consistently offer it. At least not at launch. So what are my options? I can accept that fact and move on or become PC exclusive. Sessler is no different.

To be honest, if Xbone can manage good enough sales I can see MS trying to enforce parity between versions, meaning PS4 games will get gimped unless exclusive. They did it for 360. Hopefully PS4 sales crap all over Xbone so MS don't get enough clout.


They forced the third parties to make multiplats equal on both conoles, because the PS3 version would have otherwise been better ?

 

....eeeeeh.... No...


Is true.  Developers were also not allowed to add extra content on the extra space of PS3 disc (which is why all exclusive PS3 stuff, even free on day 1,  was in DLC form, loophole).

Oh, you might be onto something with the PS3 exclusive stuff



I guessing Xbox One gamers are angry at him for calling the console weaker graphically and PS4 gamers are angry for saying that it does not matter while WiiU gamers are angry for so many reasons.



This is the Game of Thrones

Consumers should consider every information possible about a product they intend to buy, before making the purchase. For some people resolution matters, power difference is significant and the price gap is important. For other's it just isn't. Yet, they should know about any of these (and any other info) beforehand.

Let people know about differences, if any. Then let them decide whether it matters or not.



This, I stole from grandpa...It's called soap.

No, they can´t. No, they didn´t do it for the 360 (please, show us one game that parity was enforced)

It never happened before, why would this happen now?

But I will be looking foward when tool and engines have matured and there would be no difference what so ever (for now is just resolution, and even so you have to look very close to note any thing).

It´s just people with no software development background trying to sound edge and cool.

He only thought it should be standard, when he assumed MS would easily have the most powerful next gen console, as then he would of been able to talk down PS again when they failed, pity it didnt work out that way for him.



This is hilarious. There was a larger gap between Dreamcast and PS2. Yet the Dreamcast was a better console for the first 3 years imo. Only stopped by Sega themselves.

Also IW made it clear that there were other issues outside of hardware that made 720p COD Ghosts on Xbox One.

Be so funny when Xbox One sells because of its great First Party lineup of Exclusives.

Cant wait to see Halo 5 vs KZ graphics. 343i are gonna own big time.

He either changed his opinion, or he's trying too hard at not pissing Xbox fans off. well now he's pissed everyone off. It's funny because Adam Sessler is generally one of the most well liked video game reviewers out there. One stupid comment and everyone hates him. Gamers are a tricky bunch.

I believe the phrase he's being described as is "Microsoft  shill". It wasn't just that he changed his mind. He changed his mind because it was the Xbox (not the PS4) that is having the "issues". This is the same guy who tried to downlplay the price disparity between the PS4 and XBone by saying that because with PS4, you're gonna buy PS+, the console is "more like a $460 console, which is more in line with what Microsoft is going for if Xbox Live Gold was free". That is complete misinformation to put the light in favor of the Xbox. To say you're gonna get a subscription service on one platform to make it look more expensive and ignore that people will buy a subscription service on the other platform to make it look cheaper screams of shillery. 

With every piece of negative PR the XBone has gotten, he's downlplayed it or downright contradicted prior statements he's made so the Xbox doesn't look as bad

After reading all of this I think the title is not really accurate:

"Some PS4 fans who have nothing else to do but to waste time on Internet crying after Adam Sessler because he basically sais the resolution difference is not a big deal.... (but for instance framerate drop is... ahem)"

Do not generalize an opinion for all gamers' one :)


No no no, the article is saying everyone is calling him out on his shit because before he basically said "we're buying new consoles, your games better be 1080p and 60fps if you wanna keep your job" and now that the XBone isn't up to snuff he's saying "well, actually those things don't matter". It's not "PS4 fans with nothing else to do". It's gamers in general calling him out for flip flopping

Kinda unfair comparing a launch game with a game that will come time after, don't you think?
