http://www.examiner.com/article/sony-takes-shot-at-xbox-one-hours-before-console-s-launch

And I quote

The Sony social marketing team posted an image of the Playstation 4 on Facebook with the message, "Why settle for 720p next-gen games when almost every PS4 game supports full native 1080p? See what PS4 owners are saying:http://playstation.greatnessawaits.com/."

So Microsoft was nice, and Sony is scared out their minds and tries to pull a Kennedy. Huh, interesting. Maybe Sony does not like being a good sport?

Well either way, one thing is correct, PS4 and X1 are the only good consoles Systems that will be available. So you are going to end up buying both anyway. Regardless of this cheap shot.

It's a marketing campaign just like what Microsoft is doing.

Get over it.

Here's something. AFTER the Playstation launch, Microsoft said "Good launch" and you are pissing and moaning because Sony isn't saying "good launch" BEFORE the actual launch? ok, got it.

Not really when XB1 can do 1080P 60fps as well. lol!! Of course they don't mention XB1, so they could mean the Wii U or some other console. Maybe that's the case.

I am not buying both. PS4 only for me to sit beside my PC. I just don't have time for three systems, so I have to cut the weakest link out. For me, that is the X1.

lol, Microsoft does this type of stuff all the damn time. But I agree, it will blow over.

When it comes to PC/Mobile wars, MS are being downright nasty when it concerns Google.

They even have part of their store dedicated to crappy merchandise trashing Google. Funny thing is that some of the stuff MS is saying they themselves are guilty of to an even higher degree.

Let's take a look at just how classy Microsoft can be when they are threatened:

As evidenced by ryse, cod, assassin's creed 4, bf 3 and almost every game that came out at sub 1080p on xbone?

Face it if you want to run games at true 1080p hd your choise is ps4, its obvious xbone cant handle the more demanding games at 1080p

@Merex760:

Not to mention Microsoft started the low blows, seven years ago with Peter Moores Wii60 campaign where he said you could own an X360 and a Wii for cheaper than a PS3. I'm assuming most Lems here aren't old enough to remember that.

MS is nice by lying in your face with the resolution difference/being disingenuous about it

http://www.dualshockers.com/2013/11/21/xbox-exec-the-ps4-isnt-more-powerful-xbox-one-is-more-powerful-due-the-power-of-the-cloud/

The PS4 isn’t more powerful. There is some confusion about the difference in the number of pixels, but the resolution of some games is defined by the publisher, not by the console. Especially thanks to the power of the cloud - we installed 300,000 servers – the capabilities of the console are multiplied by four. So if you connect the console to the Internet, then the Xbox One is the most powerful.
