i've been begging for over 5 years.
It would be helpful if in gigantic threads like these the OP would keep it updated with any new info from our 'insider' posters.

I know I saw the bird and Matt post a few times last night before I forced myself away from this thread and into bed.

Just sayin.

beautiful .. too much FUD going on as we get closer to launch. Asking MS for a live demo of the OS is not TOO much to ask. Neither is asking Sony for a live demo.

Um yes. Have you seen the size of some phone OS lately. I've seen several 300mb updates that add simple features and fix other issues. Comparing the patch to the PS3 OS is ridiculous. That thing originated 7 years ago. Things have changed

Takes Android 4.2 firmware for example, one 200MB package can have full features even include vendor/ODM function

Your turn is over if you tried to check out the hub? Wow.

Wasn't like that at the truck event here, and it kept coming up from whoops happening. Anyways, the OS was just a XDK bootstrap that looked like the real deal, but wasn't as advanced as that leak from a take home kit.

Major and Penello tried to answer questions only to be thrown shit at. The best choice of action is just to let GAF be GAF (nobody will buy Kinect, Wii U is the greatest thing ever, nobody will buy Kinect again) and answer on launch day. The system will work flawless as advertised and slowly people will realize they've been played hard by the marketing shills they call insiders. GAF is so easy to manipulate, of course marketing on both sides uses that. Isn't it strangely convenient that for every good MS news there is a new bomb hanging over X1? I have never experienced such a campaign to desperately get people to not buy a console. I mean I'm getting an X1 but why should I care what you get?

And if you look closely you see the same BS in every one of the so called insiders posts. Things are incredibad for X1 ... But they might just work it out in time. Resolution is 720p but they are working on it. ESRAM has issues bzt they might make it work. There are yield issues but that could change come launch. The OS and Xbox Live are having huge issues but they have some time left. It's their insurance. To keep their account alive. It's moronic. You either have info and stand behind it with your credibility or you don't. The way it currently works here some can spread the most ridiculous BS and get away with it.

"I heard PS4 will be delayed to 2014 because the system runs too hot with release code and constantly shuts down. Sony is hard at work finding a solution, but they might still make it. Doesn't look good though."

See how that works? If you see the infamous but, be sceptical.

I can't wait to see your posts on the 22nd.

Man, I like Yoshida's idea of showing the PS4 UI at the beginning of their Gamescom conference even more:

Video

That was a good way to show it off, and I like the simplistic approach Sony uses. There was some stuttering as Shu switched between panels in the UI, though that might just be the video players I've used to watch it.
 
Yup and Phil went into silent mode after that response .. getting ridiculous. I'm not opposed to getting an XBONE down the line. Competition is good. They need to get their shit together.

Ya me neither. I'm not even mad about this... but wow...

If MS doesn't fix their problems and still manages to sell big at launch, I will be impressed... mainly at how inelastic
stupid
their customer base has become.

Can anybody update if there anything important in the last few hours? I will try to read all but just to be fast ;)

And I didn't get this Shu tweet.... I guess the CoD was always 1080p? Why 720p?

Reviewtechusa from a reliable source says all the network issues reported on xbox one is the real reason watchdogs was delayed.

Also that Call of duty Ghosts is 720p on both consoles.

And PS4 Originally had DRM and day one patch removes it.

No idea if this guy has good sources though. Hope not.

Edit: Guess I missed that thread, good to know its fake. Was a little worried for a second.
 
That was helpful; didn't know about the PS4 issues but they sound like typical little bugs and hands-playing-too-close-to-chest stuff. The XBO stuff sounds like straight up clusterfuckery.

Both of these consoles are coming in hot. It's no surprise that there are problems. The scale of the problems, on the other hand...

Already a thread about it .. late to the game I'm afraid. Shu has dismissed the 720p COD for PS4 calling it "stupid" ...

Old and bullshit!
We already had a thread about it, which got closed, because it's fake and simply too stupid.

Well I will admit that GAF shit all over the xbox one controller and when I finally used it I couldn't get over how much nicer it felt than the 360 version. So let's not act like things get a little blown out of proportion here.

I would highly advise anyone from posting anything in regards to that, a thread was made about it and locked for a good reason.

We should not waste our time with some guy who believes resolution has anything to do with net code.

I don't know if this guy has good sources, but his videos about the console wars are typically ignorant. He often says "unless you're a professional in ____ regard, your opinion isn't(woops typo) better than mine."

Nah... because he doesn't even know the specs behind the consoles and he's trying to talk about graphical comparisons and stuff. Dude is oblivious.

We have native 1080p video of Ghosts on PS4 so that part is immediately false.

Krilekk has a history of fighting reality. Things sometimes get blown out of proportion here, true, but he refuses to acknowledge evidence that contradicts his hopes and is constantly trying to discredit legit insiders here. It's tiresome and stupid.
 
I'm observing this kind of behavior in the message board. I always ask myself why they aren't banned, yet? I wonder if NeoGAF tolerate this much of negativity and misinformation? Why and for whom?
Maybe because they are actual insiders and Krilekk is talking out of his ass? Mods ask for proof, posters provide proof, posters post. The news is mostly negative because MS has really been messing up lately (hence all the 180s).

Or maybe everyone's just out to get poor lil MS and it's a huge conspiracy.

A great game in 1080p is greater than a great game in 720p #truefact

Haven't there been lots of PS4 kiosks in selected outlet ? I think the UI/OS should be examine-able unless PS4 UI/OS is still locked in kiosk mode too.

According to most responses it's common knowledge that I'm stupid for still preferring Xbox one over PS4 even taking into account these rumors that may be true? Why is there so much hate on here ?
 
In response to last nights shit storm? I haven't seen this video before so forgive me if it isn't new. New to me.

Ironically the video crashed my iPhone. Dat OS...

http://m.oxm.co.uk/65023/new-xbox-one-dashboard-video-shows-off-kinect-voice-controls-snap-skype/

That video is canned. The Titanfall footage is the EXACT same footage as we've seen in previous Titanfall clips. I mean down to the inch, down to the step, same footage.

That means that nobody was controlling the XB1 in 'real time' in this video, switching between apps (snapping, whatever). Which tells me the entire video is likely faked.

PS4 has never had 'DRM' as GAF seems to understand it. This was set in stone before before the Playstation Meeting reveal event in February. Let's not spread nonsense now. Andrew House has even publicly clarified that.

Edit:

Link to his comments in an interview:
Boss Man said:
There's an interesting backstory on that. I guess, dating from about our February event, there had been questions about what our online policy would be. And I have to say that we were slightly perplexed, because we had no intention of changing from a model that I think has served us really well for several platform life-cycles. And then, of course, it was really the actions of others, and the reaction coming from consumers, which led to more speculation. So we felt that with E3, and Monday night's press conference, it was a really good opportunity to set the record straight. But there weren't any changes that we'd been considering.
In other words:

'We didn't plan on changing from what was already there, but thank you for the huge consumer reaction and creating such a big issue as it really gave us something to use at E3.'
