I have absolutely no idea what to do at the moment. I have a 360 now and love it, the only thing wanting me to get the XB1 is Forza 5 and its controller. That's not really enough reasons to be honest.........
 
PS4. Always preferred the exclusives from Sony, they have some excellent studios.
Pretty much my basic reasoning too, I do feel I know far more about what the Sony first parties are up to so kinda basing my decision on what was on this gen, so more the same please, should keep me busy til right to the start of the next-next gen...

I dont think Sony did much more to improve that reasoning, I do feel that MS took themselves out of the equation, hopefully theyll work out where they are going and tell us. I need more than Forza to make me buy it though...

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
PS4 Only.

In 2005 I bought the 360 and still have this launch day machine running, along with the bundled controller. Two years later I felt MS had lost touch with the gaming community so I returned to PC gaming.

I'm buying the PS4 primarily as a BR player, but also for exclusive AAA titles that will eventually arrive. Never ever going back to the Xbox, after updating my 360 to the latest dashboard os. Worra mess.
 
having a mooch about looking at indie devs and came across this, really does show how messed up ms is.

So it seems for now that Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty won't be coming to the Xbox One or 360, and DayZ creator Dean Hall has similar views when it comes to his plans for the standalone version of his popular mod.

"Yeah, we talked to both of them," he revealed. "But, as I'm sure you're aware, Sony lets you self-publish and they don't make you pay for updates. Microsoft requires you to have a publisher. They have no digital distribution strategy and they require you to pay $10,000, or whatever it is, for updates.

if thats true, $10k to fire a patch out is disturbing as hell.

The only way I can describe how Microsoft have turned in the last couple of weeks is "Corporate". Only thinking about money, money and more money.

I really hope Sony have their **** together, because they could easily win this generations "console war".

Is there ever a winner? I mean no one thinks the Wii is better than the 360 or PS3 but it sold more. The winners are the gamers I guess..

Such a shame indie developers are treated this poorly :(, especially one that made a launch game for thr first Xbox. Seems MS like hoops for both gamers and developers. I presume this means that if you used such services like Kickstarter you are a bit buggered if you can self-fund a game without the need of a publisher.

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
Still got my PS1, PS2 (fat version, is a little temperamental), PS2 Slim and PS3 fat.

So, PS4 it is!
 
I think that MS counted on the PS4 being £499 and not being able to play used games. I wouldn't be at all surprised if they are holding meetings about backing down on the used games policy. Not that will bother me, I'm getting a PS4:cool:

It has surprised me the number of very casual FIFA/COD type gamers at work that have instantly mentioned the used game restriction whenever a console conversation has started.

TBH I dint see them backing down. If they did I'd get the xbox instantly. Just seems they will continue on this path no matter what
 
I don't seem them backing down, it's clear that its design for digital distribution, hence the rules, just like steam, iTunes etc you can't sell them on.
The physical media is only there for legacy for people to adjust to the new way, by the end of life for this gen I would be surprised if there's still boxed content in large qauntity, back up for those with slow Internet.

Do you think they'd have done better by being more like Steam?

Ie, no resale at all, but you only need to be online once to link your account to the game.

Rather than this difficult-to-understand, limited resale at participating stores, must phone home every 24 hours malarky?

I'd say the PS2 pretty much stormed it's generation. Most sales and regarded as the best by gamers I'd say.
