Moneyhat seems to make alot of Sony fans feel better. Respawn were not moneyhatted originally. They chose the platform that made Online gaming and moving that forward a reality. Sony's network is not up to the challenge currently at least as far as moving things forward. After Microsoft realised Titanfall is a killer app with media, they secured the first title.


Oh wow, I also love the Dreamcast. 

What I meant was Microsoft are offering a new online infrastructure that Sony cant even dream to match. Even with Gaikai servers. They are WAYYYYYYYY behind. Titanfall could be done on PS4 currently, but gimped. Not in its current state. Respawn said many times, they chose Xbox One because Microsofts online structure and Cloud allowed answers to moving online gaming forward. Not just another MAG or Online part of COD.

IMO. Sony are in trouble 2016 onwards. When people see the real power of Cloud processing. Microsoft has in the pipeline for 2015 some serious cloud games. Which will change the dynamics of the generation. A few insiders are starting to spill. E3 2014 is gonna be epic.


Oh Selnor, Elaborate on the bolded part please x)

Oh really ? What kind of clouds, and how serious ? 

Can I borrow your crystal ball please ?

Hey its my opinion. I dont require you to believe it also.

Respawn said when they looked at what they wanted to do with Titanfall, they had issues and stuff they wanted to do with the game that wasnt pssible on the existing online infrastructures. Only Microsoft came back to them with an actual solution. In fact Titnafall the game may well be the reason Microsoft opened up Azure Servers for Xbox Live Cloud Processing. As well as Dedicated Servers for EVERY developer that wants to use it. Sony didnt have a solution for the online stuff Respawn wanted to do, hence why originally there was no PS4 version. Confirmed on Respawns Website.

Once Titanfall picked up steam nd made MAssive waves at E3, Microsoft made sure in any form Titanfall 1 would only appear on XBO. Not even allowing a gimped down non Cloud version on PS4.

 

Your second point.

A trusted user on this site mentioned his mate quite high up at Microsoft said theres alot of Cloud Processing stuff being done for games in 2015. Really impressive stuff. E3 2014 and Xbox Event in March/April should be awesome stuff.
