Xbox One is removing all restrictions!

[DARKSEID]

PS4 is still the more powerful system and $100 cheaper

Thank goodness. I was getting depressed about never playing halo again. Whoo.

That's the same crap they said about the Ps3, and all it did was collect dust.

Now they can call their console the Xbox 180!

They just caved in to backlash by fans and by what Sony did. It still doesn't change the fact that they tried to pull this off. If Sony announced similar restrictions would Microsoft be doing this? No they wouldn't. For all we know Microsoft might still put all these restrictions on the console - just in case.

And I've also read a few comments from Xbox users who say that they've already pre-ordered the PS4 and aren't going cancel it because of what Microsoft tried to do.

Also there still will be mandatory installs which will fill up the Xbox One's 500gb non-replaceable hard drive real quick.

PS4

Better more powerful hardware
Better exclusives
Upgradeable hard drive
No Kinect
$100 cheaper

"Downloaded titles cannot be shared or resold. Also, similar to today, playing disc based games will require that the disc be in the tray."



Which exclusives games you talking about? 1886????

Lol, you're just saying that based on the launch titles and what was shown at E3. What about the current exclusives and the games they will release in a few years time? Uncharted, The Last of Us, Ratchet and Clank, Little Big Planet, Gran Turismo, Infamous, God of War, Killzone and whatever game Quantic Dream decides to release after Beyond: Two Souls etc.

Ps3 was more powerful too, not that you'd ever have realised it.

The xbox is more expensive because it includes the kinnect and other features which are all sold separately on the ps4

I just hope Microsoft does integrate the cloud com*****g that they were going for, although it'll be harder without always online it can still work.

Otherwise expect a fairly swift price drop now that it's just another console like Playstation

Sony did that with the PS3 too and was also more expensive. The roles have reversed, but Microsoft are trying to sell a less powerful console for more. They need to fire whoever is in charge of the Xbox because it's been one major **** up that has hurt the company big.

Then I'll buy a ps4 down the line when it's cheaper and some of those games are out.

Arguing that the ps4 has a better launch lineup is straight fanboyism, it doesn't. And nor am I going to buy a launch ps4 because the last of us was a good game. It's a ps3 game.

It's impossible to have a logical argument with Sony fanboys

We the gamers wanted a gaming console not a PC. If we wanted a computer then we would go out and by an Alienware.
A PC is more powerful and will run the cloud a billion times better than Xbox1 ever could.
The fact that Playstation is not bundling their motion capture device is offering the consumer the CHOICE of whether to get it or not.
Don't hold your breath on a price drop happening until a year passes at least.

I already pre ordered my ps4 and have no intentions of changing it.

Then only Microsoft exclusive I liked was gears of War. Seeing how Judgement turned out, o well. Surely Sony can offer me something.

I noticed they didn't say anything about the kinect camera? I'm assuming it always has to be on still?

This move is nothing but corporation greed. Microsoft saw they were about to flop and lose out on tons of money. Best to remove the restrictions and make it seem like if it was for the "fans".

Once again, Sony wins.
