How many did the Sony one have ?
God I can't stop laughing at this story
The architecture is far more important, as long as the 2 consoles don't stray too far apart in their raw performance games should be looking amazing on either platform.
can i ask a question? u honestly think that the x360 in the last years was standing good compared to ps3?
more we was ahead more the power of the ps3 came out ...at least IMO was like this
i wish ms learn the lesson and made a future proof machine

Hmm, I see you point, guess I worded it too broadly. Illumiroom attempt to increase immersion by increasing the visible field of view, either by direct projection of the game or by aspects of it to affect your peripheral vision. Oculus Rift has your field of view and peripheral vision covered, to a larger degree, and it's all of TV quality (albeit low res TV quality right now). If you're playing on your own the OR is the superior choice here, and that's not even mentioning the other major advantages - 3D and motion tracking.
It was locked at 20,000 posts as most threads are.
Yep. I'm already worried about that. I'm already getting sick from just watching those YouTube videos.
Pretty sure he meant how many threads or total posts between thread(s).

Regarding Illumiroom not enhancing immersion: Honestly I think we can all agree that this is an immersion enhancing experience. If you disagree I'd love to hear why.
Regarding the prototype and its usability in 5 years: The product itself will be improved and consumerized and id wager to bet it will age gracefully, seeing as it just displays 3d-mapped low res visual data. Its not like we would notice the difference in visual fidelity the same way that we do with games from 5 years into the Gen vs launch games.

You should watch the concept video again. There's not a single moment suggesting you would use kinect in a shooter, for example. The most "traditional" game portrayed in there was the racing game (with the tire changing minigame), everything else was a kid fighting or stomping like a monster, a quiz game, sport minigames, a virtual dressing room, and voice control for videos.
Besides, I don't see how motion control games wouldn't qualify as "modern gaming". A game like Just Dance, Guitar Hero or Wii Sports is probably more modern than your regular FPS, which is from a genre that has been popular since the 90s.

If you were presented with that option vs all of your friends in their own houses, each with a Rift and each of you "in" the same game world, looking at each other's avatars, would you really pick the Illumiroom option? This OR concept when fully realised is just so crazy, in a good way, how could anyone not want that?
The using it with your friends thing I refer to my answer above, that's how it can hit the mainstream. The motion sickness thing is a very good point, and sadly no matter how accurately they develop the motion tracking it will always affect some people.

It's Reiko. The only true thing that can be substantiated about him is his good taste in big breasted women. But for the rest he can be a total boob sometimes
:lol
There certainly was a lot at the Sony event. Thankfully I didn't watch it live and got to skip the parts that didn't interest me. It'll be interesting to see what the major criticism is from this reveal.

thank God it's not in the middle of the night Pacific Time
Technically the 360 stood good, it was a very well designed system. Sony has some very pretty games though. The PS3 wasn't pushing more polygons, higher res textures (where DVD wasn't a limitation) or framebuffers. I think the only apparent emerging difference has been better PP AA, where SPUs were put to good use, and motion blur in some games. So cleaner image quality in a few big games.

She's not the only one.
Ha...Hehe.....ha....ha.
I don't think i'll be able to take another situation like FF13.
1.2 isn't bad,it would be terrible.We are talking about xbox MS has a reputation to maintain.
You don't think it could add a lot more immersion though?
Not so much the visual fidelity angle as in the "are people going to boot this thing up every single time they game five years from now" angle.
Aside from 'immersion' being only slightly better than 'visceral' when it comes to gaming rhetoric, I don't exactly buy the unadulterated claim that just because you get some extra images broadcast on your wall that you are somehow more immersed. I think all of the justification for the device comes from its longevity.

Personally I find this "Sony Defense Force"/"SDF" crap a lot more annoying, to be honest.
Don't you know? Everything you add to a console takes away from games. Online, unified social communication, Netflix. All bad.
Im not into it and I'm not complaining. Honestly I don't mind it. I can see why people would like it and its existence doesn't affect me
What other game does a character get told to "wake up"
Conker? Banjo?
I think there's something hidden in that comment.
A bit like Link always getting woke up.

Halo has Master Chief, aka John, who wakes up in the beginning of Halo 1 and Halo 4, but that's all I can think of.

its an MS hype thread... counter arguments not necessary... grab an Only on Xbox Avatar and grab a seat for the show... this is not the thread for all other comments about why not to be excited for Xbox. there are plenty of other threads for that... a lot of the last 10 pages are trolling
If a bigger screen and higher resolution and 7.1 sound has a tangible effect, so does this. You see more. It covers more of your FOV with its low resolution projection.
I would laugh so hard if we hear "wake up", and then Master Chief gets out of cryo sleep for the third time for Halo 5.
Maximum trolling.
Wake up again, again, for real.
