System Wars is a one of a kind destination where gamers can discuss, rant, and debate about systems, platforms, handhelds and the games. Not many people survive System Wars. The mightiest system warriors back up their arguments with facts.
Rules are simple:
- Read the Terms of Use and System Wars Survival Guide.
- Must be Level 10 or higher to create topics.
- Keep your discussions around what belongs here: platforms, games, developers, publishers, and stats.
- Don't quote more than one image in your post.
- Do NOT post or bump extremely abusive discussions (adult material/illegal activities/illegal advertising/etc).
Sony has already won...

[QUOTE="StrongBlackVine"][QUOTE="CanYouDiglt"][QUOTE="DarkLink77"] No, I'm claiming they sacrificed the franchises' identity in the multiplayer by making changes the fanbase is against while moving the single-player backwards. That's what I'm saying.[/QUOTE]That is just another way of saying they did make changes but just not the ones you wanted. I think 343 did a great job overall not perfect but still great but clearly you do not. Do not say they should have had their own take though when you keep saying they did make changes but just ones you did not like. You sound like you just want to hate on Halo 4 or 343 without a real reason why so at least say listen they made these changes and I do not like them . I do not know maybe you were never a big Halo fan or maybe it just does not interest you anymore but saying they should have made changes because of the changes they made I do not like does not make any sense.[/QUOTE]
Didn't 343 admit they did a subpar job? Game only sold by name.

They did say that they wish they did a couple things differently, but they didn't say that it was a subpar job. Being a long time Halo fan myself, I thought Halo 4 was a great step in the right direction, as did many other Halo fans I know. Your always going to have people complaining whenever you change up the formula a bit. Thats probably why cod doesn't change, because even more people would complain then.

Franchise director Frank O'Connor says 343 Industries "made a lot of mistakes" with Halo 4, but overall the game "wasn't half bad."
"We have a lot to learn. We made a lot of mistakes. We can do better," Halo franchise director Frank O'Connor said in a retrospective blog post. "And we know this, and we will."
Edit* they didn't say it was Subpar just that they have a lot to learn and they could do better next time.

- Built in Kinect
- More marketing $
- People will go from 360 --> 720 for XBL alone
- They're making not losing money this time
Saying that, Sony would outsell them in a same price/same launch time scenario. PS is still a bigger name than Xbox.

For gamers they've won, but lems would rather have worse graphics, unreliable hardware, pay to play online have no games and get ripped off all gen long as long as M$ makes money.
I mean let's be realistic here, Sony has the multiplats, they get the oddball big budget third party exclusive more often the M$ and they have an insane amount of amazingly talented first/second party devs that share resources and makes amazing games.
It's so one sided.

LOL
PS3 multiplats are often bug-ridden.

That headstart is looking more like a bluff from sony now.
It really sounds like sony studied up the issues the ps3 suffered, and is not making the same mistakes this time. Namely the fact that according to developers the ps4 is easy to make games on now.

However, they were still making a game that was very much in the vein of what Bungie established. They had the opportunity to really take the franchise in some exciting new directions and they blew it. Instead, they decided to make changes in some areas and toe the line in others. They should have been more adventurous while being respectful of the series legacy. They were not.

[QUOTE="RR360DD"]
Did anyone expect the Wii to win this gen?
/thread
[/QUOTE]
No one can say who will win between Sony and MS with the PS4 and the 3rd Xbox. I can guarantee the Wii U will not win, because it is out and it isn't selling and people aren't interested in it. I suspect Wii U will be dead last by a long way. And PS4 and the 3rd Xbox will be much closer, because Xbox will outsell in America as it has with the 360 and the PS4 will outsell everywhere else. The reason I think this will be the case is because the specs for the PS4 and 3rd Xbox seem to be nearly the same. So it will come down to preference, price, and what other things each offer that will determine which system you want to own. The exclusives will remain the same with MS not getting any more to jump over to their system. Maybe a few is all? But there will be game devs that make only for each system that pop up like happened with PS3 and 360. I suspect each system will be priced nearly identically considering the rumored specs for each. So you will pay to play online with the 3rd Xbox, so Sony could keep a free online service and that would help them sell their system a little more. I really think there will be less of a difference with PS4 and the 3rd Xbox than there is between the PS3 and 360. They are a lot different.
