Fanboy shit aside, Microsoft has Really been fucking up for sometime now. Windows 8 has been a disaster, their tablets and phones have not taken off like they expected, and so far, while still very early, it seems the gaming community is less than thrilled with the Xbox One to say the least.

Microsoft simply seems completely out of touch with what consumers really want.

I was wondering about the mandatory installation of game discs on the harddrive. Anyone know if you have to install the entire game before playing? Bluray discs have a lot of data that would be a bit of a pain
They said you can play during the installation.
My problem is how 500 gig hard drives will limit the games you can "own". They haven't said yet (that I know of) whether we can upgrade our hard drives.

If I'm not mistaken they said you could connect an external harddrive so that's good at least.

Still having to install the game on the HD is annoying. And downloading a new next generation blueray sized game from the online store shit how long will that take to download a day?

Btw I just let my brother borrow a game and I thought this could be the end of that. Only way he could play it if this was the xbox one is if I went to his house and signed in with my account? what a sick joke.

Sony Employees “Passionate” About Today’s #PS4NoDRM Twitter Campaign



The Twitter campaign to highlight both the end user reaction to Microsoft’s restrictive used game DRM and a plea to Sony to not repeat the same mistakes appears to be gathering a fair amount of steam since it was started overnight.

What kicked off from a forum post has quickly gained traction, with most major outlets at least aware of the story, with many, like Kotaku and Destructoid, actively writing about it.

Since then, several Sony employees have Tweeted their acknowledgement of the campaign.

“Humbled by the outpouring of passionate PlayStation fans and their willingness to talk to us directly,” said Nick Accordino, SCEA ISD Producer. “Please know that we hear you. <3.”
“This is why I love PlayStation fans- the passion bucket overflows,” said John Koller, Head of Hardware Marketing.
“To all the fans, with a special mention to GAFfers, I *love* your passion,” added Shahid Kamal Ahmad. “It convinces me that the path I chose 31 years ago was right.”
It’s worth noting that the Twitter accounts are generally not the opinion of the employer in cases like these, but it’s good to see the comments coming forth anyway, especially when they’re so consistent in tone and language. Having a positive effect? Looks like it.

Let’s hope that this is all having an effect, and that the PlayStation 4 won’t feature a system-wide used game DRM method, something that has caused much discussion since the Xbox One’s reveal last week. Are we likely to hear about this before E3, though? We’ll see.

You can read more about why and how here.

No chance. They'll have some exclusive content for the xbox that wont be availible for the ps4 but that's it.
