MS has actually patented to tech for kinnect to spy,.. errr i mean monitor licenses. They wouldn't do that if there where not at the very least flirting with the idea so.

Or to put it another way there's an active camera and mic in front of your TV watching you masturbate.

Technology patents? Really? There are tons of patents that get filed that the party filing has no intention of ever using.

Anyone that is really worried about this needs to get on some meds IMO. Face the stupid thing towards the wall if you must, but it is probably 99.999999999999999999999999999999% likely that any worries one would have are easily taken care of with a few privacy setting adjustments.

If you want exclusives Sony definitely puts out the better games and always have. Problem is I am too big of a Halo fan.



I agree with all of this except for the Blu Ray ability on PS3. Blu Ray on PS3 is not just for movies, it is also for gaming. Every single PS3 game comes on a Blu Ray disc which is one of the huge reasons why PS3 outperforms the Xbox 360. Blu Ray discs allow for more storage, better image quality, audio quality, etc... So while you may not be watching movies you are still using the Blu Ray aspect for gaming. You will never see a PS3 game with 2 discs.

True. I didn't think about the fact that you don't have to deal with two discs with PS3 which is a very nice deal.

It's not a big issue but it is kind of a drag to have to put a different disc in to play single player, or multiplayer, on my BF3 game.

I'm not saying they're going to use it. I have no idea. But I will say this. I'm pretty sure all the people claiming they'll just turn their kinnect toward the wall will wind up finding out that won't work for them.

I imagine if Microsoft decided they wanted this stuff to do what people are worried about there is giong to be something in there which will keep the Xbox one from even working if they Kinnect isn't facing toward the open room.

If you think they didn't think about the idea that people would just turn it toward the wall to keep people from license checking (If they even do something like that) then you're niave beyond belief. If they decide that they want to use this tech for "spying" type stuff you'd better believe that it would be necassary for the Kinnect to be facing forward, and being able to register the people in the room, for the system to work.

They'll have that simple "turn it toward the wall or cover it with a towel" thing covered.

I hate them to but all of their games are the games I play :(.


They jacked up Fifa so bad this year. Took almost all the skill out of it.

I thought I heard that EA will do Xbox only exclusives? Maybe that could be a good sign.

Exclusivity as in games or DLC?

DLC. Sorry for being so vague.

You scared me lol. I never buy DLC from EA Sports anyways. They're always looking for more money.
 
I am going to do what most people are doing and waiting off for the PS4. I bought a PS3 and so far am enjoying it. I love Uncharted and God of War. Was never able to finish the series. The Last of Us looks too good to pass up. But as for the next gen console I think I will wait a year at least.

Will they at least call me the next day?
 
I dont really but too many used games, but it irks me that Xbox is trying to cash in and force people to pay to unlock them. I always liked the online experience better with Xbox, but it looks PS4 is going to my system of choice this time around.
 
About to cap off the downfall of my favorite system.

Oh god, Call of Duty is the most talked about game. Gaming has hit new lows in recent years.
 
LOL so they open it up with a Japanese game that's been on Playstation for years.
 
Xbox One games displayed so far:

Ryse
Killer Instinct
Sunset Overdrive
Forza 5
Minecraft
Quantum Break
 
Halo, Battlefield 4(intro got delayed due to technical difficulties), and what lies below.

Does Sony come out at 399? 450?

That'd be smart of them. They may take a lose but it could help them win the "console war" early on.
