I feel you breh, I'm actually not baiting you on some troll shyt.

It isn't the same as "Sony should have dropped at 400 in 2006". Actually, no that is the same thing. They should have and who knows what the landscape would look like, so a Sony loyalist should think about that on some what if shyt.

So the same way it is VERY perplexing to me that Microsoft didn't do it. SO lazy, so comfortable. And now, PS4 rules the land.

How is it not the same thing though fam? We're both talking hypotheticals and what ifs. You gotta remember that standalone bluray players were 800 dollars plus back in 2006. The PS3 was 500/600 dollars. So they kinda had to price the PS3 at that price or take an even GREATER loss. I'm Sure MS was aiming for a pricing model that made the system profitable or very close to it day 1 which is why they went the route they did on the hardware. The ESRAM setup was something that Sony said they considered themselves since it was cheaper, even going with only 4GB of the faster Ram, but they made the right choices. The ESRAM setup was too much of a bottleneck and was a bandaid for using cheaper DDR3 ram. Going with 8 GBs of the faster GDDR5 was a no brainer for programming purposes and long term success.

The problem I see with MS is that they think they can always market and throw money at shyt and it make it successful. They aren't being genuine at all with this "we listened to you" nonsense. If the XB1 was selling great , they wouldn't care about these discrepancies in game resolutions/framerates no matter how hard gamers cried and complained.

The shyt isn't changing with these types of gaming discrepancies.

Surprise. A bunch of miserable people who claim to NOT be interested in the Xbox 1 writing multiple paragraphs on why they're not interested in a system they supposedly don't care about.

For all the benefits the Xbox UI provides, i'll forgoe the 100 pixels you nikkas think is so important.

At the end of the day, those 100 pixel take away very little from my gaming experience, meanwhile snapping and superior multitasking, and superior gaming library (in my opinion) provide so much more and make the X1 the obvious choice FOR ME.

It's a simple matter of priorities i guess. :manny: Did 1080p/60fps make Killzone worth playing? :heh:

Do they not know at this point that specs, in itself, is a PR campaign?
do you really think so? i know a lot has changed but we cant really say the success of apple or nintendo came from the spec sheets. whatever that bigger draw is, i think MS has been going after it and trying to balance it with a decent spec sheet...in short i dont think it matters outside of the usual fringe group of techies

Early PS3 games were way worse off, and that lasted through the gen, PS3 has missed out on some games that it just can't handle. Let alone missing P's and frames.

Though i didn't see much fervor about it and I didn't see any of you proclaiming you liked your ps3 any less.

Be a Stan brehs :scusthov:

speaking of games 900p

I played for two hours and was not bored for one single second. I cannot say if this extremeness of fun is sustainable for longer periods, but as a mission-by-mission fantasy world, the early game is varied and pleasing.

I found myself gallivanting around town, firing off silly Saints Row-style guns at chasing monstrosities and I found myself holed up in tight areas, defending a glowing Important Thing against enemy capture. There is always the potential for such things to grow tiring after a while, and it is to be hoped that later missions continue to offer variety and diversion.

You could keep your opinion. You sound like a scorned bytch when someone disagrees with YOUR obvious choice of a system. :camby:
shyt is unforgivable.
I'm selling this piece of shyt ass system. Nobody's playing Destiny on The Slime Side of Things, either.
My crew mad that Bungie made a game on Sony's system...fukk's wrong with nikkas? These nikkas Les Miserable over here.
