Reporters shouldn’t lap up spin from “sources” without questioning motives. If iOS 7 design changes were universally praised, the spin would have been much different like “It was quality team effort led by Jony Ive’s vision”.
As my post stated, if report is true. Why don’t you ask the obvious question? Where is the leadership and vision? Who is in charge? You can’t give a baloney excuse that different departments worked on it.

Spin Translation:
Jony Ive, “The parts you don’t like, I didn’t design.”
Who exactly is in charge?! You either sign off and approve a design or not. Doesn’t matter who designed it.

Why is the Verge even publishing this Apple apologist drivel?

PS4 is the Blockbuster Video Store of consoles…obsolete and outdated.

Once they demo, Live TV / Game instant switching, TV guide voice control, Skype video chat, Snapped apps like Twitter/Facebook and the next gen Dance Central Kinect…Game Over.

That’s FUD BS. You’ll be able to sell/trade in your games. If you gotta lie to pimp the PS4…

“Dual virtual machines is not a gaming advantage”

Yes it is. MS can off load tasks like match making in the background while you play other games.

Facial recognition is on the PS4.

Not with a $399 PS4. Won’t be able to match security or accuracy of Kinect.

Only one person can play it at a time.

That’s same limitation as PS4 discs! Your entire game library in the cloud with Xbox ONE is huge advantage. Same reason people like having their digital music in the cloud with Apple, Google or Amazon.

I think some families may gravitate towards PS4 due to price. BUT once customers see both consoles next to each other at Best Buy or Target, it’s game over for PS4. An Xbox demonstrating all of it’s features will blow PS4 out of the water.

It’s not even close. Dual virtual machines, voice and face recognition, complete app ecosystem, cloud powered games, free group HD video chat etc.
re: digital DRM
You don’t get it. You can have 10 members of your family playing ANY of your games on ANY Xbox one without even touching a disc.

“Microsoft may have reached too far”

Hell no. I’m glad MS is actually making a next generation machine.
PS4 is just a PS3 with better GPU/CPU.
As far as DRM is concerned, this is DRM for digital games! This is a much more flexible system than Steam. You’ll still be able to buy used games. (Even EA killed their stupid online pass program)

This is a slight improvement over Scott Forstall’s work, but I’d suggest Jony Ive stick to hardware design not software. iOS 7 looks like someone’s iPhone 5 got smeared in pastel eye shadow while bouncing around in a purse.

Is that the iOS 7 home screen or Candy Crush Saga?

Streaming HD PS3 games to millions of users? If that doesn’t lag, I’ll be shocked. Hats off to Sony if they can pull that off.
