I think they are more likely to make something interesting with Surface 2 (http://winsupersite.com/windows-rt/surface-2-details-emerge), and the Xbox One..

I game as much on PC as console, so I'd rather see compatibility for Rift from Sony than have to buy two different sets of VR gear.
Wait, what?
was about to say the same thing. this guy is clueless.
Wrong, you have dialects even within countries, that's not an excuse.
I didn't understand that one either.
He said that'll be coming in the next few weeks.

How was he being arrogant. He was just commenting on the news. There is nothing negative in what he said.
Some of you need to get the anti MS hate out of your system of don't post in this thread.
Yep.

I agree with you on this.
That was arrogant?
Damn guys. Some of you need to relax. How was what he said arrogant?
Someone asked and he answered. Its more a case that you were offended by his apathy.

He wasn't being arrogant. He saw the board exploded with ps vita tv and he just mentioned it. If anything, he thinks it is a good idea imo
Literally nothing negative - contextwise, 'ok then' sounds like 'I don't care'.
Knowing the stance of many people on GAF, this may be treated as arogance, regardless of motives.
Coming back from -1000 rep score to around 0 may take some time, so better cater for haters, that's his job isn't it
Jeez guys, no need to treat Mr. Nelson like new fish.
That said, I found this interesting. It really highlights how scattered Sony's approach is getting. So, you watch TV on you Vita TV, and you play games on your PS4? Couldn't that .... *ahem* .... be realized on ONE device?
It just seems like different decisions, but it does seem to be more clear now that Xbox is favoring an all-inclusive approach, and that Sony is focusing on many of the same things the Xbox One does, and sometimes gets flak for, just to a different capacity.

Yes. You can swing the fence both ways. As long as people understand that then they need to keep their own feelings in check.

I think it's just because I read it in his voice.
And when someone simply says "Ok then" to response to something like that, it's usually done in a snarky way. A way of saying "LOL who gives a fuck".
Maybe I'm wrong *Shrugs*. But that's how other people use it on the internet.
That's called options. No need to buy a 500$ device for something that can be done for 100$.

Seriously, you think that was arrogance?

Given that tone of a text-based message isn't as accurately conveyed as other forms of communication, I can understand thinking that it could appear a little dismissive. However, I think that requires one operating from preconceived notions wherein no benefit of the doubt is being given, as it could just as easily be an acknowledgment of new information that hasn't been processed and contextualized. Given that, I don't think there's any need to jump on those specific two words.

If you can spread the love of a console from room to room for only a 100 bucks per, yeah, that's going to be more accessible.
thankfully it's balanced by people who see no wrong in anything microsoft does.
It's a kinder reaction than I had when they revealed it last night. I shut it down in disgust and went to bed before they could even really show the thing. Granted my patience for having my time wasted at 4am is a lot less than most other times.
the only possible answer is ditch kinect and launch a 349 dollar/euro xbox one.
Exactly, but Sony are dividing their focus. "We'll support TV here, and handheld gaming here, and PS4 here" whereas Xbox are in a position where they can say "We've got the Xbox One, and we can support Microsoft devices with Xbox properties. Our focus is in this one, all-encompassing device".
I understand what you are saying with options, but if you divide your customer base enough it's going to be difficult to support any one area. 'PSVita TV owners, PS4 owners, PS4 owners with PS Eye cameras, PS Vita owners' whereas the Xbox division has their focus squarely on 'Xbox One owners' in the coming future. It's just different ways of doing things, but I just thought it was interesting that the PS4 gets billed as more gamer focused, which I suppose is true, but these other devices sort of negate that.
So what you mean is, 'it makes gaming more accessible for me, because I can access my PS4 games from another room'.

What's your blood pressure typically Derrick?
This one goes out to Major Nelson, but if anyone else knows the answer feel free to help me out.
From what I understand, the "infinite power of the cloud" that the Xbox One harnesses is basically Microsoft's Azure servers, right? Aren't those servers available for anyone to use, given that they pay the licensing price? If so, what gives the Xbox One an advantage over any competing product or service given that they can be using the same cloud services?

Reading some of your posts i'm not feeling at all what you just said lol
Surprisingly normal all of the time.

@Major Nelson.
Any plans on bringing something to the dashboard for Clans? People that play together on COD, BF, Gears and so on? Any type of easy clan tab that shows stats of what games are played and stuff like that?
Thanks for taking the time to answer if ya do.

Stay sensible and don't let people get the better of you.
As for Major Nelson, I'll just be upfront now, and tell him it'll be an uphill battle to convince me (and probably others) that they're doing anything to benefit me as a potential consumer.
So stay humble and don't make ambiguous posts, because people WILL interpret them badly. The goodwill isn't free flowing at the moment.

How do they negate that PS4 is gamer focused? Every one of those devices has its own focus. What does one device focus on have nothing to do with the other devices.
