Microsoft has risked the company on the idea that people will want a $500 TV remote that spies on them in a time when people are dropping cable in droves and going to Netflix. Kinda sums up how Ballmer got the Worst CEO Award. But Microsofts biggest mistake is one that Sony made last cycle :Way too expensive at launch. Like I said the next 5 months is a comedy show and Microsoft is the star.
Micorsoft had no competition for third party development dollars last cycle, the PS3 was just too difficult to get the best out of the system. That costs money. Micorsoft is going to seriously get a spanking this time around. Devs love the PS4, heck even Game"Whats a Playstation "spot loves the PS4.
Gamespot coming out in support of the PS4 is akin to Rush Limbaugh saying he voted for President Obama.... .. twice. Its that big.
Im going to go out on a limb here and say, based on how Microsoft flip-flops on things, that a lot of the execs at the company are BIG Rush Limbaugh fans XD. The King of the flipflop.
For some reason specs mattered last cycle, but not THIS cycle, no no no. Oh wait. .. MS had the better machine (at least from a third party dev standpoint).
Starting to think the entire Xbox community needs a Waaaaahbulance. Post release they will probably need rabies shots.
And don't forget the better GPU and the having a very small OS. The XBO takes up almost half its slow RAM before you even start a game. Windows +DirectX = bloatware
This Microsoft guys clearly an idiot. Its like a racercar driver saying that a competitors car that has a better engine, bigger gas tank and better tires has no impact on performance.
The XBone is weaker, plain and simple. Its going to be fun to see how well Micorsoft does now that they don't have the developers and the gaming press clamped on their teat 24/7 like they did with the 360.
Also it seems that a lot of Xbox fans need to have a Waaaaahbulance called for them, I hear they are whining about Watch Dogs on the PS4 getting DLC and they don't know when or if the XBO will get it. The days of MS throwing money like confetti at devs are over, perhaps if Ballmer was not blowing money on Windows 8 and stuff it would be diffeerent. Really wish the MS guy would not have mentioned the better specs, gonna be tough enough to get a PS4.
Wow, first Rockstar punks us, now Sony. Unveil a new game system without actually showing it to us? Unleash a stream with so much lag issues that it would have been an embarrassment in 1999? A cow with extreme incontinence walking out on stage would have been been a vast improvement (or perhaps a visual representation of the show as a whole). At lest it proved one thing :Watch_Dogs was never a current gen game.
