cnet.co/19jg2sl In the battle for gamers' hearts and minds, Sony Computer Entertainment of America CEO Jack Tretton explains why he thinks the company's new policy on used games is a winner.
Wow this guy really, really got it and gets it. Still true to this day. His comments on used games shows a real world awareness the industry doesn't normally have.
I truly think microsoft is a good company, but they went wrong with the xbox one. The only reason they got rid of drm and always online was not because they listened to their customers, it was because they listened to everyone's wallets closing
I am aware that there are more 360 fans than ps3 ones. But why the hell do people keep paying for online??? I know people are gonna say that Xbox live has less bugs or something like that. But I have a ps3, and I have encountered no problems!!! Why do people pay for xbox live!!!
what's special in xbox is about the free games, No cheating, No hacking and you can always report a player plus we don't need to buy Cards in order to pay our bills we use Visa i pay for xbox live for like 10$ a month but it doesn't matter cuz you'll get the features. I know that ps3 is better in terms of features and its multiplayer, Sony has more fans than microsoft
Yeah, I was wondering about that too. Whether I pay for online multiplayer or not, I expect it to work. I love the PS3 and Wii U mainly because of the exclusives, but the 360 has most games that I can get on the PS3 too.
anaknidorobo Free games? You mean all those games from 5 years ago that no one wants anymore!? HAHAHAHA PS+ gives you games you actually want to play, so in that regard PSN is better than LIVE. Also, Sony's online feature's suck, no cross game chat being the biggest missing feature. Thats why I play multiplayer on Xbox and Singleplayer on PS3 :)
The Gaming Doomfloyd Playstation Plus starting giving out free games way before Microsoft even thought about it. Difference is the free games on PS+ are actually new and appealing. example they just had Saints row 3.
Jack Tretton is so down to earth and definitely makes gamers feel comfortable with getting a ps4. I didn't get that feeling when watching Microsoft interviews because they barely ever talked about the games and the gaming aspect of their console. Well done Sony. You got my money.
Sony needs DJ Khaled to remix "All i do is win win win no matter what quality games on my mind i can never get enough when sony step up to the building every bodys hands go up! And they stay there!"
The ACTUAL TRUTH: "We made the same decision as Microsoft did. We had and we still have the same plans, but we are clever enough to let them get it it out first and see how the consumers will react. We saw that Microsoft crashed and burned, so we took it back. Thank God, for Microsoft's stupidity! That really saved us and you fools think that we are consumer-friendly! Hahahaha! Not even close, see how crap our PS Plus service is? Yeah, that shows you a lot! Thanks and goodbye!"
Wow really appreciate the straight shooting answers Jack gives. Not even trying to sell the system just answering the questions without PR bullshit which makes me even more interested in purchasing PS4.
That's a really good question. From what I know, if you pay that $5 it includes everything from you being a PS Plus member for a month to getting your online multiplayer connection.
Very well-spoken man! This gentleman knows what he's talking about and you can tell he loves what he does. Also he seems very grounded and with a ton of knowledge. I am completely onboard with Sony and the PS4 ALL THE WAY.
Currently no...but there working with a thing called gika (or something like that) im not to sure but i think it allows you to download ps3 and maybe some ps2 and ps1 games later down the line.
Can I have a heads up on what specs (besides the RAM) are superior? I had a look but all I could find was the difference between their RAM cards. I don't mean to be pessimistic or anything, but I reckon both consoles will perform about the same for the average person. RAM won't do much for your game unless you leave the console on for 4 days lol Or if you had 12 other programs running at the same time.....
I remember meeting a man that looked to be around 80 years old in a videogames store when I was 12. I was buying final fantasy chronicles, when a game that looked scary caught my eye and he picked it up and bought it. Not sure why I remember, but it IS a cool memory.
The information about consoles is shared with the game developers. They get a simple developers kit that includes the consoles specs and what ever policy they have that they need to know. Do you think that they wait until the system is already out then satrt making a game for it?
Can you tell us something about some of the exclusives (the new IP's) that are coming out for PS4? I'm not asking for a plot or a character description, I just want to know if they're going to be as good as some of the current-gen games. I love your exclusives because they play with my emotions and they're hard to forget because of that. Great stories, great gameplay... Are we getting some of these games on PS4?
yes these 5$ per month gives you PS+ abilities (that's what I understood) but in ONLINE do I have to pay those 5$ to play online even if I was a PS+ member? or these 5$ for the people who don't want to be a PS+ member?
Up until the week ending June 15 the PlayStation 4 currently leads in the total number of pre-orders with about 75,000. The Xbox One is lagging behind with 45,000 pre-orders, also amazon is sold out of both ps4 and xbox ones BUT there are way more bundles of the PS4 on amazon.
Quality over Quantity Age like a fine whine since all PS did this generation is Quality unlike xfridge pumpping quantity that you will never consume ....
