Your damage control for the xbox one is strong.

I didn't know you cared so much for xbox one to defend it so feverishly. Is that hype point for xbox something you liked to gloat over or something, you've got like 3 posts of deflection and excuses so far which is more than any xbox fanboys so far.

I remember how lemming claimed a download on PS3 took hours,and it was that download on PS3 were GB's long vs XBL games which were MB long because of MS size restrictions so there this sense of speed that xbox live was faster in reality it wasn't.

I remember when i posted a video of my PS3 doing an update which lemming claimed took hours,on my PS3 it took like 4 minutes,and they stater to claim i edited the video..hahahaa

Poor xbox one last on everything but USB drives and TV...@delta3074 lol..

I fell for the clickbait. Would be nice to see an actual test. Sony has come along quite far since last gen, I wouldn't be shocked if the PS4 was faster.

Having watched it, it's not particularly scientific, but they definitely raise fair points. I've not been the best of friends with my XBO when there is a game to install or update, yet my ps4 is usually pretty snappy with it all.

The funny thing is, that is the only thing xbox fanboys have ever used to make the xbl > PSN claims in the first place, yet I've never seen anyone question that notion that XBL was superior to PSN with just talk or ask for "tests" til now LMAO except the people making this claim now aren't jaded SW fanboys.

Funny how that works.

BEFORE: lems; "XBL superior to PSN and always will be because we say so, no proff need everybody konws this and must accept it"

NOW lems: "WHERE ARE THE TESTS!!!! They are just talking, anecdotal"!!!"

It's usually the exact opposite in my experience, but I imagine it's because I use WiFi on both and the WiFi antenna or whatever on the PS4 isn't very good.

Excellent point. Everybody always assumed XBL was better because of the paywall last gen.

What do you expect? This is a industry that relies heavily off of meaningless 100 point scoring systems with no reason to how the reviewer gets to that score outside of a "feeling".

Its not that Steam, PS4 or Xbox downloads at different speeds, I expect all of them to have network cards that can take full advantage of whatever connection you have. They seem to be talking about install times on Xbone, this happened last gen with the PS3. It seemed like the PS3 was slow as hell, but it was mainly because it had to install after.

I find it strange that Microsoft have gone backwards, I would have expected them to be the leaders in background fast installs. It definitely needs addressing.

What they say is true, but it has nothing to do with download speeds. Title is misleading as it is actually PS4 is faster at installs than Xbone and not PSN>XBL.

@Gue1: This isn't news. We've known the download speed was slow since the systems launch. The multiplayer service and staying connected when playing games is much better on XB1. Phil already said they have their tech looking into increasing the download speeds for XB1. The XBox 360 download speed was superior to the PS3 last gen. You cows didn't care about it back then. Why do you care now. lol!! Bunch of trolling hypocrites.

You'd have to be an idiotic fanboy to think the XB1 is the worse game console. Get your head out of Sony's ass and maybe you could see the light. Meantime over 12 million gamers love playing their XB1. lol!! The Wii U has less gamers enjoying their Wii U.

Isn't that the system wars way.? Is always opinions vs opinions you have years here you know it.

@lostrib said:

@playharderfool: so salty

But he is right and you know it..

I even remember fighting a moron here who was comparing downloading an XBL game which was like 90MB,and he use it vs PSN game that weight in 1.2GB or something like it on PS3,man no matter how fast is your speed that 90MB file will download far faster than a 1.2gb file.

So you have some one claiming live was faster based on his experience the problem was that what he was downloading for his PS3 was 12 times the size of what he was downloading from XBL,and MS had a system with memory cards so most of what they use to have for the first 3 or 4 years was small download i remember how oddworld was going to miss the 360 because MS refuse to increase the size of games allowed through the network,when on PS3 there wasn't that problem.

That is sad considering sony has 10 million more users and still has faster downloads,no it wasn't the xbox 360 had about the same speed,game on 360 and download for the first 3 or 4 years were very limited in size so downloading something on 360 mean smaller download thus downloaded faster giving xbox 360 users a false sense of speed over PSN to those who had both.

"Currently the title weighs in at 2.1GB and that is without any updates, so either we have to pull a miracle out of the bag with some type of amazing compression system, or ask Microsoft to increase their 2GB limit. However this limit is apparently hardware-led, so please let us try and make a miracle happen," wrote the development team on its blog.

The PS3, on the other hand, has no practical file size limit. That's been the case from day one. A handful of full-size Blu-ray Disc games, like Warhawk and Burnout Paradise, have been made available as downloadable PS3 titles.

http://www.gamesradar.com/oddworld-xbla-plans-scrubbed-due-to-size-limit/

You got a false sense of speed because on PS3 there was no size limit it you wanted to release a 5GB game you could,on xbox 360 it was first 50MB and started to increase as the generation move on,remember since MSD had a core unit with memory card they benefit from having small games.

What I want to know is; is it actually the download speed that is the difference? I just think the Xbox One takes forever to install anything. It probably has some sort of complicated install process that makes it take forever.

Don't think it is a network issue since the thing happens to both digital and physical games.

@brucebenzing: Tired, and made a typo. Sue me. I edited it. Doesn't change the fact cows are the biggest morons on this site. Claiming XBL is slower than PSN. And yet they didn't even watch the video. Lol wow.
