Eh...the E3 thing was mostly about the DRM and such, no? That's a huge misstep, but I think the original conferences will be more important in the long run. Especially looking at the different points of focus for both.
OH, the price. YES that's very important too. In that case make em even

He is openly preferring the PS4 at the moment and constantly gets flak for it on twitter lol Must be a hard life when your audience mostly consists of Xbox fanboys.

Didn't Sony also say they were aiming for a ten year lifespan for the ps3?
They'd need to use the CLOUD to make up for the difference.
Seriously though, upscaling doesn't do shit for image quality. Besides native = pixelmapped = crisp
I'm being trolled here right? Because Kinect usually does more damage to gameplay than anything else.
Replacing a button with a voice command or physical leaning? Nothankyou.jpeg

I don't get it either. Although you can say that MS already changed their strategy during the 360's run. They were hell bent on Kinect and other features that had little to do with basic gaming. They tried to expand on something that made Nintendo so succesful with the Wii.
Sony are probably lucky that MS chose this path instead of going for raw power and core games. MS could've dropped Kinect and all that and just create a powerful gaming machine and Sony would've been in a bind right now.
But perhaps, when X1 was conceived, the call for motion controls etc was very huge still. MS thought next-gen would go this way. Sony's strategy ultimately paid off, they didn't go all in with its Move gimmick and initially lost to Kinect but today this doesn't matter at all as the consumers just seem to want a more 'regular' gaming experience again. But no one could foreseen this, what if todays Kinect would be as big as the Wii during its peak? Then Sony would've been fucked.

720p is ok as long as it runs at high to ultra settings with 2x aa.
He states in the comments:
"Guys, all the TVs at these event were 720p ONLY. So I have no idea if the game will render at 1080p, 900p.... whatever."

I have a 27 inch monitor. There is a MASSIVE difference in image quality when playing a game at lower than 1080p resolutions.
Hmmm (from Twitter):
HOLY SHIT! IT IS POSSIBLE that they can't patch the DRM out on launch day??? HAHAHAHAHA, WTF!!???

Aside from all the resolution woes, what we really need some clarification on are the OS issues, those are much, much bigger problems imo.

Ok, maybe I'm just not getting this. Is the console outputting these games in 720p, or is the game running at 720p native with upscaling to 1080p? Pretty sure it's the latter, but a lot of these posts seem to be suggesting the former.

Hell no leave Panasonic alone
Ahhh that's a good point. The way Sony came out with "GAMES, GAMES, GAMES"!!! made it seem calculated.Eh...the E3 thing was mostly about the DRM and such, no? That's a huge misstep, but I think the original conferences will be more important in the long run. Especially looking at the different points of focus for both.

LMFAO... holy hell!
I hadn't been following much until after the Xbone reveal, but from what I understand, yeah, the whole February thing was a bit of a surprise, and apparently things had been a bit more quiet on the Sony front compared to MS in the rumor mill. I remember a Thuway post in particular where he mentioned that MS folks were banking on Sony sticking with 4GB of memory, so the other hardware differences wouldn't have ultimately mattered, and the upgrade to 8GB took them by surprise as well.
I'll see if I can go dig it up.
Ah, didn't notice...why would you have 720p only TV's at an event like this? I didn't even know they still did 720p only TV's? Weird.

Most people did also since Sony has no money .
I think people need to remember that MS has a huge amount of cash but that does not equal the xbox division having it .
Add in suit making problems with the xbox division and here we are .

Nah, his seeing-eye-dog can't tell the difference between 720p and 1080p.
They fucked up quite a bit with the 360 too, it was just impossible to top Sony in the fuck-up category last gen.

no, your trolling was obvious and i answered with sarcasm. Anyway... where is cboat or mortimer goddammit? we need more details, what with those teases..
Same here. I think it says a lot about how mature and easy to use the dev environment is on PS4, on top of the added horsepower.

people, 10 years life span isn't meaning 10 years before PS4.
PS2 lived a loooong life after PS3 was released. PS3 will live some more after PS4 is released
Maybe two feet. And I don't sit in a couch. I sit in a padded rocking chair.
