Rumor About Xbox One Family-Sharing's Downsides Has Flaws of Its Own [UPDATE: Microsoft Debunks] ^ LOL Microsoft is on HEAVY DAMAGE CONTROL right now! And their "debunk" isn't even a real debunk, since at no point do they COMMIT to say what the plan was going to be. They just...

I wonder if they would've allowed a person to reset the "session" by backing out and going back into the game, or if you would have to wait a day or something (EX: after your next online "check-in"). Some people were for this to be a boost to organizing/running tournaments.

It's the CPU, from what I've seen. Their design of the CPU has the eSRAM on the same chip, so problems with the eSRAM impacts the CPU directly, and vice-versa. It's a heating issue between the two, and that's why it's said they are considering lowering the CPU speed, so it reduces the heat...

That doesn't sound very tournament friendly. Might wanna ask DrDogg about that one.

How much value such things like Kinect interaction will have for games remains to be seen. You also must consider, though, the factor that the multiple OS's that MS has running on the X1 allow only 5GB of memory to be available for games to run, whereas PS4 allows (estimatedly) 7GB of memory...

You're reaching. It's been well documented that console games (particularly recent gens) have traditionally been bottlenecked on the GPU side of processing over the CPU side. Devs basically LOVE the fact that Sony put GDDR5 memory in the PS4, so I seriously doubt there will be much of any...

I have an old model PS3 that I upgraded to 500GBs. Haven't done anything online on it recently to even be aware of a new update. Dodged a bullet by accident? lol

I think Microsoft has now become PERMANENT meme material for The Internet ... like Lebron James. No matter what they do now, THERE WILL BE JOKES!!!! lol

The Next Gen Console War Game of Thrones style

If you want a different looking console, keep a lookout for case mods to come out later (NOTE, case mods VOID your warranty).

I like how PS4 handles "sharing" games between friends/family.

This thread sounds like a pilot for a future Reality TV FAIL show.

Yeah. Follow the links, and you'll come to this one, which is a bit more reasonable (though, still not a good look for MS) ... http://www.theverge.com/2013/6/14/4429218/xbox-one-may-not-work-in-unsupported-countries

Microsoft Confirms Xbox One Will Only Work in 21 States in the US at Launch

Plus, isn't the used game market even MORE a practice over in JP? If so, it would make even more sense they want nothing to do with the X1. [EDIT] NVM. Japan isn't axed, MS will just be getting to them ... LATE. lol...

This is still somewhat tied to E3, so I'll post this here instead of starting an all-new "Post E3" thread just yet ... Sony Raises Its Sales Forecast For PlayStation 4 "Demand may well outstrip supply."

This just dawned on me ... Here's a "brilliant" idea. If publishers want their games to generate more revenue, how about adapting more of the PC model of releasing EXPANSIONS to a game (that are only playable WITH the game)!? You figure the development of expansions will cost less than that...

If Microsoft would come out and say that their DRM policies will lead to SIGNIFICANT price reductions on games over time (like Steam), then I'd think more people would be onboard with the system. However, the likelihood of MS actually doing so is low. I forgot where I saw/heard it, but it was...

Any sensible gamer will buy a PS4. 140 PS4 Games in Development, 100 in First Year, 40 Have ‘Exclusive Experiences’
