So if multiple products in a store were open to be bought by any user for free it wouldn't be too "opened"? How could the people who created the items make money from them?
I'm not saying this in terms of any consoles --- simply saying it in terms of what you said. That example I used above would be greatly pro consumer but from the people making the products, it would be "too opened".
The manufacturers would have thought out a way to make money by giving it away for free (
Google Gives their Product for Free, they don't claim its too open), take Sony for example they use the razor and blades model for selling their consoles. And you don't fucking work for said company so stop trying to create a problem where there isn't one. Microsoft never once said
if we remove DRM, our system will be too open. There is no such thing as too open,
You created that idea in your head to justify your purchase, I don't know how many times i need to say it for you to get it. Microsoft's policy stem from the Xbox one being a digital only platform with a physical delivery system in place, the disk is used for install only like PC but without all the benefits of PC.
Haha, I don't work for MS or any of the other big game companies.
You don't think that Sony or Nintendo wants to nickel and dime you either?
I said
the corporation, never specifically mentioned Microsoft so you can pretty much put in any company name in there. I'm not stupid and gullible enough to believe any corporation would let me share my digital library of games with 10 people unlimited but I can share my physical library with 100 people if i chose.
I never said it was a good thing. I simply said that publishers wouldn't have to worry about it as much as you are making it out to be since many wouldn't be able to take full advantage of it.
Few weeks before Microsoft released their game license policy, you amongst many were screaming Sony would do the same thing because Publishers wanted a DRM filled console so STFU about what Publishers want and don't want. In an ideal world, publisher would like everyone to pay for every game but we don't live in an ideal world. Microsoft puts in an artificial internet requirement to use their console which cuts out a shit ton of people so Publishers wouldn't worry about people sharing their games with friends? Such stupid way of thinking.
Um... it's more in terms of who I can share things with on consoles. 2 < 10. Kindergarten math.
-10+2=-8 this is the PR math they are using. I give you 10 Apples but you can only eat 2, how many Apples do you have? A child will say 10 but a grown up will say 2 because those remaining 8 are useless.
More info needs to be given about both systems but like I said before, if I can share my games with more people than just 2 and get games faster with faster updates then I'll still say that the Xbox One will seem to be the better system for digital.
You can only share your games with only 1 person at any given time per
their policy
You say you don't care but yet you keep on replying to me, even when you previously said you were "done". YOU CARE.
I replied to you specifically because i don't like people who make up things.
1. you made up this idea of too open
2. you made up this idea that PSN is less open,
3. you made up this idea that publishers don't like PS4 having a less restrictive physical platform and an equally open digital platform
4. you made up this idea that XLive is more open for letting you share your games with 10 people while in reality you can only share with 1 at a time.
Again, you aren't me. Your assumption that I made up my mind before I learned details about the family plan is stupid, immature, and wrong.
No i'm not you, I don't need to make up false stories to justify my purchases.
Good interview.
Yeah major nelson stated many of his answers with PR twist/terms but that's his job.
Overall, it still seems to me that Xbox is giving more people options to share digitally than physically while it's vice versa for the PS4.
Sony would never allow a family plan similar to what's (supposedly) coming on to the Xbox One. The PS4 is already opened as it is when it comes to physical discs. The Xbox One could do things like the family share plan because of its restrictions on discs.
If the PS4 had the family plan ON TOP of not having any restrictions on games on discs, then things would be too opened. Keeping things the way they are now with discs + the family plan = a ton of people sharing/pirating games instead of buying them. Publishers wouldn't support the PS4 at all if that happened.
The Xbox One could drop the DRM issues but if they did, the family plan would have to go (for the same exact reasons I stated above).
But yeah, it seems like this next gen is physical (PS4) vs. digital (Xbox One). Choose what's best for you and then go from there.
Or, if you want all of the games, get both.
Such STUPIDITY and Pretzel logic filled false equivalency
I guess you would be surprised if you knew how I was acting after Sony's E3 conference.
Heh, I'm not interested in it because I think that 10 people could play at the same time (knew from the get-go that wouldn't be possible). I'm interested in it because me and 10 others could save a lot of money. 10 other people = more people (obviously) = more games to try out/share.
Then it is not 10 family share plan, it is false to claim 10 people can share but then say only 1 person can play. If you believe that then i'd like to sell you oxygen, Sony can also say 20 people can share but only 2 can play at the same time and it still wouldn't make any sense since the limit is just 2.
That's you/your opinion then.
It is a fact,
1. PS4 lets people without internet play games. FACT
2. PS4 lets people buy digital games. FACT
3. PS4 has less restrictions. FACT
I'm not trying to spin anything.
10 is more than 2 is it not?
Oh but you are, your first post in this thread was trying to compare PS4 to Xbox one with some idiotic false equivalency.
Peace... again... before you come back and reply to me again even though "you don't care".
I don't care about your purchase, you don't need to make up Bad Sony to justify your purchase which is why i replied to you.
