At the rate they’re going, might as well put all xbox customers in jail and only let out those that don’t pirate and don’t play with used game discs. The restrictions are going to be suffocating.

Sony might have been talking a bit on extras outside of gaming but it was focused on gaming, but this is full on entertainment features with gaming little more than an afterthought. From this 4 minute clip you really don’t know anything about the gaming side, other than better kinect and that some games are coming.
What a shame.

That makes sense, if the product is not a 100% guarantee anything less would be a lawsuit waiting to happen. Otherwise there is really no other explanation of not integrating it, other than being too expensive to the point that no one wants to pay for the feature.

If the market demands it, it would have been integrated too right? So is there no demand for the thing? Is the price too expensive?

Microsoft: “Don’t let google track you!! Let us do that instead!”. Fact of the matter is microsoft would do exactly the same things google do if they were given the chance.

This move is pretty much necessary, unless they want BBM to sink along with blackberry if BB10 doesn’t pan out. The catch is how will they make money off it?
On top of that, I’d like to see a messaging service that can be used on PCs as well. Gtalk is a good candidate, but it is not as ubiquitously used as the other mobile messenger apps.

At the direction they’re going, it’s going to be irrelevant for current gen games, underpowered for next gen ones, and I have no idea who in the right mind would get a wii U for smartphone games or even choose to get said games for wii U instead of their smartphones.

Yeah, rich opulent palestinians living in absolute luxury, how dare they oppress the poor and hungry israelis living under the rubbles of their own homes and refused their right to exist!!

The first mistake is assuming that things are better with US as the most powerful nation on earth. “Freedom and democracy” is just meaningless rhetoric, doesn’t really mean shit for non americans. Afghanistan and Iraq are nothing more than piles of radioactive rubble and mere shadow of its’ former self after the wars. Go watch vice episode 3 on HBO and see the kinds of things Iraqis are faced with after the war.
Like it or not, US is part of the problem when it has the strength to do whatever it wants and literally get away with it.

I prefer GS4 to htc one, the blackband around the screen on the htc is just obnoxiously big like blackberry z10. GS4 has smaller footprint than the htc one and yet a bigger screen.
