Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft is winning me over.

Didn't you all expect this? Microsoft doing the DRM thing hurt them with consumers, but it was gold for them with third parties. I don't know if Sony can even recover at this point because I guarantee you that they were supposed to go the DRM route too. I think Sony stabbed third parties in the back this gen. Sony can't afford to buy any exclusives either, so Microsoft can buy them wholesale this gen.

E3 this year is going to be an ENORMOUS peak into whether Sony will keep their lead this gen. Either third parties have no choice but to go back and develop for Sony, or they continue throwing tonnes of exclusives at Microsoft forcing people to buy Xbox Ones. This is the E3 we find that out in. Worst case scenario Sony is cut out of even the basic third party games like Assassin's Creed, EA Sports games, etc.

I'm not trying to degrade the PS4 at all, but the lineup is pretty barren. Infamous was awesome, but the rest of the exclusives on the system have been pretty meh. And their aren't a whole lot of exclusives announced that are interesting. E3 may completely change this, but for now, all I'm saying is Microsoft is really tempting, while my PS4 sits unplayed.

Well, PS4  doesn't has many exclusives like Microsoft for now. But, we know that Sony is the one who is going to pump diversity of many exclusives and it hold the future strong along with better multiplatforms support, indies, less price and Virtual reality than Microsoft offering of shooters. 

Look at the diversity of PS4 exclusives announced up to 2014 so far: (all are first party unlike microsofts 3rd party exclusives)

Resogun

Infamous second son

Killzone shadow fall

Knack

MLB Show 14

Drive club

The order 1886

Hohokum

Rime

Hell divers

Counter Spy

Sony is making games for different consumers not just for shooters.


I don't see him saying anything about diversity. Just that he doesn't care for those games.

I just meant that sony care every kind of gamer, so they have not produced the games he likes the most yet by Sony(as he is saying PS4 games are meh and not innteresting).



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.

I like threads like this, they are so obviously trying to achieve only one thing and they work, every argument one way or the other can be countered with the exact same thing. But hey, at least they are are entertaining.

All consoles are good and all offer great content. Do not dismiss one of the other because of your limited imagination. Xbone has some fantastic games on Dead Rising 3, Titanfall etc. So does Wii U, Mario games, X etc. As does PS4 inFamous, a well of indies etc.

But here is the difference in my opinion, Nintendo have done what they usually do (try and entertain us with great games and franchises), Sony continued the great run they had with PS3 with an improved console and their own studios, yet while MicroSoft have brought a lot to the industry, pushed competition, some things were for the worse. The Xbone has a lot to offer, I don't think MicroSoft does.



Hmm, pie.

But you say that MS only has shooters.

For Xbox One there's Dead Rising 3, Killer Instinct, Max: The Curse of Brotherhood, Project Spark, Forza 5, Ryse, Xbox fitness, Crimson Dragon and Powerstar Golf. Those are VERY diverse. Zombie game, fighting game, 2d platformer, world creation game, Racing Simulator, Hack and slash, fitness game, on rails flying game and a golf game.

Oh and even though this is an EA Game, Peggle 2, a one button puzzle game.

What gave it away? lol



I guess this is a response to the guy yesterday who made a thread about swapping X1 for PS4. OP has managed to be more subtle with this one, but bits and pieces here and there have let him down. Good attempt though.

Don't think so, that guy was a troll alt made to start as a hardcore "Xbot" super excited for all the Xbox releases coming, then all of a sudden hates Xbox One and calls all of the upcoming games mediocre and trash.

This is a Nintendo fan who doesn't play his PS4 anymore.

You know what, maybe you are right.  Saying the PS4 only has ports and that games on PS4 and PC don't count as exclusive but those on X1 and PC do is Xbox fan logic.

Or he just really doesn't like the ports and indies the PS4 has.
