I'm not trying to say that those are bad games. Forza is great, and GoW and Halo are pretty widely reknowned. But it's not like there is a shortage of quality FPS or 3rd person shooting games. I feel like the PS3 exclusives are more diverse and there are simply more of them. I can't name another Xbox exclusive game. Most of the good Xbox games also come to PC. So if I had to make a decision between the two, it would be a PlayStation.That completely depends on what your looking for. Gears of War feels and plays heavier. It feels like your a 250 lb muscle bound guy with a big gun plunging literally head first into cover. Thats how it feels and how its meant to play. COD and Battlefield are more finesse based. Its all a matter of what you want at the time.
I remember when the first halo launched i had an absolute blast with my cousins playing split screen when i first got the XBox. IDK why gamers feels like they have an obligation to bash every single thing they dont like.
I can go into detail about why TLOU is so over rated in the experience catagory but its because of how i think it should have been done, i dont say nobody should enjoy it because it didnt meet my vision of that type of game
How much did Microsoft pay Harrison to talk-up the XBox One?
So a gigaflop doesn't matter to a teraflop? Who do these guys really think they are. Speed of hardware directly translates to a better experience. Duh.

This doesn't look like it's changing much for the next generation. The only really interesting Exclusives I've seen are also announced for PC - e.g. Titanfall.
Bullfuckshit.
Is that why the PS4 is outselling the Xbox One 2 to 1? So you're telling me there twice the number of PS3 owners than there are Xbox 360 owners?
Christ man...it isn't that hard to prove you completely wrong. You could have at least tried.
lol your calling bullshit and using idiotic bullshit pre-sell numbers? Sony allowed their numbers to be inflated and outsold the hell out of themselves which is why theyve said everyone who pre orders wont get one on launch day or even really before a specific date. Theyre also intentionally bottlenecking their pre order releases, meaning joe blow who didnt pre order a console may be able to walk into a store and get one before another persons pre order is fulfilled.
Sony allowed "unlimited" pre orders on their consoles through multiple vendors when microsoft had a hard cap, that allows sony's numbers to be inflated in comparison to actual demand
If it were anyone else I'd respond but seeing as it's YOU, again, I'd rather not waste my breath.
Every single report back all the way to June directly states that Sony gave companies the go ahead for unlimited pre orders meaning a soft cap, which means they exceeded their actual production capacity, and every report about microsoft pre orders have stated they gave retailers a limited amount of pre orders. How is that such an illogical explanation as to the difference in pre order numbers? seems pretty fucking obvious to any moron who can use common sense

no links? again? How many times is this?
it's absolutely guaranteed that a significant number of people will change their minds between the day they preordered and the day they actually have to pay.
I was pretty excited very early on and preordered an Xbox One but I canceled a couple weeks later when I sobered up and remembered that I have good reasons not to buy a console at launch. Not only are there plenty of 360 games I've not played yet (hell, I'll even finally give Halo 3 a try when I get it for free on the 16th) but I've bought two brand-new games in the last month (Diablo 3 and GTA V) that'll keep me going for a fair while. Shit, I might even buy another PS3 next year to catch up with some of the exclusives I haven't played (and they'll be discounted to boot!).I have both pre-ordered, but am dropping one soon. Not sure which one yet. :/ I know a couple others that are doing the same. They just want one, but aren't sure which one yet. So, that's at least 3 down....

Gamestop Memo said:Starting now, through this weekend and until further notice, Sony has allowed us to take unlimited preorders beyond your current allotments, the memo reads. In other-words, the flood-gates are open for PS4 system reserves, we will let you know when to stop pre-ordering based on limited quantities.
Gamestop was told they can (for a limited time) take unlimited preorders which based on the memo released which reads;
Gamestop is the only retailer in North America with the ability to properly handle brick and mortar releases. What was happening here was Sony establishing a demand based on location so they know how many to ship and where. All major retailers like Walmart, Target, Best Buy have much more floor space.
Your theory is remarkably flawed. Every other retailer has been given preorder allotments + day one units for instore sales, Amazon is not taking anymore day-one preorders yet almost daily folks are getting emails saying they have been upgraded to day one.
What I find even more remarkable is that in those very links Gamestop employees are quoted saying the PS4 has a much higher demand.
Thanks for the links though.
PC still lacks a Forza/GT type game but thats about it
Which part specifically? I'm trying to work in my daily /drops mic reply and it might be here depending on how you answer.
Couldn't care less.
Basically Sony is spending the money on increasing their system horsepower (GPU, memory)
And Microsoft is spending that money bribing developers to create artificial "exclusivies" and probably to cut down graphics on the PS4 version on non-exclusives.
Yeah that's great for gaming.
It 100% proves the fact that Sony outsold themselves in pre orders. The fact that they are not fulfilling all their pre orders on day one, or any time soon after in all countries is complete verification that their pre order numbers were not capped. Not just by Gamestop. Microsoft on the other hand had a hard limit of pre orders in all countries with all retailers. The number of pre orders is not true demand, the percentage of number allocated to number sold is statistically more accurate.
If microsoft had only sold 80% of the pre orders they made available, you'd be absolutely right in saying the ps4 demand is absolutely higher, but in this case the ratio and percentage sold is more accurate
I'm sorry, can you answer a few questions please?
Is Sony intentionally telling retailers to continue doing day one/general Pre-orders knowing they can not guarantee 100% of the orders placed?
Did Gamestop say or not say they would pull unlimited Pre-orders when alloted quantities were drained?
Who has the authority to put items on pre-order on unreleased products, the retailer or the principal company?
The pre-order slips in Best Buy, the PS4 section is empty. Why? The Xbox One is full, why? Did Jack Trenton call that Best Buy Manager and tell him to fill the Sony pre-order box back up or is he looking at an allotment number and not refilling until they get updated numbers?
