"People" means enough people to make it a bad idea to go to market with those features. They wouldn't have changed anything if the majority of people agreed with what you wanted.
We don't actually know that yet. Yes, we've seen some leaked specs but we still don't know if the performance gap is really that large in the real world.
Didn't the MGS guy say that the gap is small?
Not worldwide. There is a reason why people outside the USA call the Xbox the AmericaBox.
At this point, they might as well just start shipping PS4 consoles with Xbox stickers on them.
All the bullshit about "all in one"? GONE
All the bullshit about the "infinite power of the cloud"? GONE
All the work from their engineers making a new environment? GONE
And what we have? A much less powerful next gen console with NOTHING appealing on it.
If they're removing the Kinect connection, it will end up killing much of their work on Kinect integration. Basically MS would be torpedoing their entire business plan to dominate that living room.

Wait, I thought it was only required during setup, I didn't even know it was assumed to be required all the time lol.
You know what's crazy? A lot of people view the Xbox team as the profitable, well-run bright spot of Microsoft.
Does anyone else allow the train of thought that since nobody else with a shred of credibility has picked up on this that it is a load of horse shit?
I have doubts this is true considering how integrated the Kinect is with the system and how much money they spent on it.
Either way, this will go down in history as one of the most mismanaged consoles ever. I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a fourth Xbox.
Still early but yea the "gaming journalists" need to get to work.Does anyone else allow the train of thought that since nobody else with a shred of credibility has picked up on this that it is a load of horse shit?
Did they have a legitimate chance of "dominating the living room" to begin with? With no used/traded/loaned games allowed? With a steeper price tag than the competition with superior specs?
Nothing appealing? You have to be trolling. Dead Rising 3 looks pretty appealing to me.And what we have? A much less powerful next gen console with NOTHING appealing on it.
Sounds like Kinect will be bundled in still (which is the right move IMO) but they are going to let you unplug it to stop fears of syping/privacy breaches.
If true, bravo MS, bravo.
Well he isnt going to say shit son ps quad be smashing dat xbone kid. The fact a few devs have even said there is a gap is telling in itself.
Xbox One: Yeah, basically 360 with prettier graphics.
Isnt that pretty much what PS4 is? A PS3 with prettier graphics minus the cell tech?
Yep; as they should. Now what is next to complain about? How about PS4 online paywall?
I guess MS just does not care about consumer confidence. Why would anyone want to buy the console on day one? MS has shown they are willing to change anything at any moment.
I don't even need to wait on that. Unless developers are functionality retarded, all multiplatform games should be better on PS4. PS4 is significantly more powerful than Xbox One, and Xbox 360 was pretty much even on balance with the PS3 (maybe PS3 slightly better, but negated by much more difficult development environment). Not only that, PS4 is extremely easy to develop for and Sony is provided unparalleled level of system support, and pretty much every developer from indies up to the big boys say the environment is like night and day.
So unless there is just no effort at all into a PS4 multiplatform game, it is going to have the best version of everything next-gen.
No. It's much more!!Isnt that pretty much what PS4 is? A PS3 with prettier graphics minus the cell tech?
Wow - backtracking upon backtracking upon backtracking.
At this point it's practically an upgraded 360.
