And you'll still get $hit titles, just like any format; except its expensive $hit! Laughing

I'd prefer it if they were sinking 10billion in exclusive shit that I hope no one buys.

Push for console, F all the Win7/8 users. Nice. Thank god M$ is working to make gaming on PC better. Explains why they put out a re-hashed Age of Empires which is nothing but a piece of shit. So glad I didn't buy into that.

"O-kaaay..." *snaps rubber glove on* "Now, Mr. Microsoft, I need you to bend over that table for me. A little further. Gooood. Now, this will hurt a bit. Please don't scream; it scares the nurses."

Yea some decisions seem odd or downright stupid when you consider how PC's have been moving to the living room slowly but surely since the 90's. First Xbox they did somewhat right and was a useful device in many ways. You know it's bad when Sony is more open and supportive than you. Same guys with betamax memory stick etc.

despite all the praise for PS4 I still think Xbox will win in sales. PS3 and all those who bought it and got ripped by Sony will not forget it. Like me. Sony will do what they have to do on release and once the cash starts rolling in, things you come to like about your console will be ripped away from you. Just like their bullshit plus membership. It doesn't matter you get thing for free because the day you stop forking over you membership fees they will take everything you got, discounted or free. Then don't forget the digital rights shit. They don't tell ya that though.

Nice one Tom... second hand games on the new Eggbox, £35 activation, wtf? where have you been hiding??? DRM indeed!! Of course it will outsell PS4. Eggbox owners are absolute cult worshipers and despite signing up for XBox live membership just to play online, never mind the rest of the shit that isn't applicable in other countries.
M$ are just out to make money, fuck PC gaming. M$ have NEVER supported PC and just buy exclusive content and Devs for their shit consoles. FPShit are all they make and racing games, stuff that their teenage clientele love!
Soon as you don't pay your Eggbox live membership, bye,bye online gaming etc.
Eggbox is a ripoff, you're in denial. $80 a year or whatever it was if you buy in 3 month chunks for Eggbox live.
PS3 = free
I don't want the; 'can't change your HDD', i don't want, 'pay for online gaming per month', i don't want, 'activate second hand games at £35 EACH', connected to internet at least once per week to keep it activated
FFS, you have seriously got to be kidding comparing Sony to the eastern bloc oppressive regime, that is M$..... Then again, a nods as good as a wink, to a blindman... remember, this is M$ that kills PC gaming?

Console is a bit different than PC in the way people play or interact with each other. You don't see PC gamers bringing a game copy over (even when they could) and sit next to you and play. PC's were always a box near a desk and weren't usually setup for lan play at a home. I think trying to put a digital PC solution into the console world is kind of dumb and not well thought out. This is why MS is failing and Sony will as well.
