this guy says the next xbox and ps3 will be based on pc architecture, meaning it will be easier for devs to make games for us and we wont see the amount of bugs and glitches in games as we have been seeing. that is, if this is true. the price of 350-450 prediction makes this seem like it could happen seeing how its much cheaper than what the ps3 originally launched at, what was it $599? www.redmondpie.com/xbox-720-playstation-4-to-cost-around-400-at-launch-says-report/

No. It's just like any new electronic item. It will get hyped up and everyone will have to have it

Remember the Blu-Ray was the reason why the PS3 was so expensive at launch. So I think it will be less then $600.

oh yeah, now that the blu-ray won the format wars it will definitely be cheaper. I doubt it will go over $300 and the PS3 will drop in price another $100.

So I think it will be less then $600. good point. i agree with you there. not to mention HDTVs are way cheaper even though it has nothing to do with it. the price point matches up. plus there wont be backwards compatibility. so they wont charge more for that. also, they wont play used games anymore.

I have stated this before, will again...
Socom is dead...Microsoft has long standing relationships with BIG GAME developers. Specifically Activision..Which by the way develops the game most of us play DAILY. COD. Reguardless what they do to make the machine any better, it still runs on the second rate crappy PSN. With this being said, there is no reason to buy another Sony system. If you havent tried out xbox live, you should. And then tell me its not worth $40 bucks a year.
Buy the XBOX next time around...I promise, you wont regret it.
I am making a valid attempt to get all my friends to buy microsoft, I have both systems and can fully attest that Sony is truly second rate to xbox. I just need my friends to open their eyes on this subject.

I won't buy Xbox on principle alone. I don't like their business model, their lackluster hardware, or their charged internet service. As for them having a "Good standing with developers" It isn't a good standing. They just keep throwing money at developers, and they keep throwing out crappy games. Seriously, I can't think of the last game I was completely happy with. I think it might be DC Universe, and that is an SOE game.
Devs now make a game, and support it enough to throw out one DLC, maybe two. Then Microsoft throws tons of money at the devs to make sure they get DLC first.
And as far as not playing used games. I believe if they do try that, it will quite literally be for one fiscal quarter. Then they will patch it when they see how much money they are losing and how many jobs they are costing. I mean think about it. If you aren't buying a used game, why go to gamestop. Why buy a game at all for $60. Especially if you can't at least sell it back for half that to someone else when you are done with it.

For me not having to pay ANYTHING for it.. it's actually not that bad. Talk to me after the 20th. Then I'll be a little more likely to have a better handle on if I can continue to move forward in Sony's corner.

I think the ps4 will be a lot better, obviously hardware wise, but for developers as well. Sony took a risk with that new CELL processor in the ps3 which gave devs a headache and harder to port games, i think the quality in games will be pretty similar this go around, if not better on the ps4. You saw uncharted that series was better graphically than any xbox esclusive

Here is the point I am trying to drive home...
Do we all play uncharted 5-7 days a week? I dont, and neither do any of my friends...In fact I cant remember the last time I saw anyone playing uncharted.
Is it a good game...Opinions vary, but yeah, I think so.
But its not something we are going to play nightly..For months on end..No...
So this is my point..We play big title shooters nightly..Blops2 is the current fan favorite. Activision is in bed with microsoft. If you have the oppurtunity to play blops2 on xbox...You would understand and appreciate how much better it runs on xbox..And I am guessing the majority of ps3 users wouldnt care about spending the $3.50 a month to have the game run better...

The PSN is just a name...they can easily make whatever changes they need to make. The reason the Xbox gets CoD DLC first is because they have a deal with Activision. Microsoft is able to afford this deal because of the revenue they get from Xbox Live. So in essential XBox users are paying for the DLC to arrive a month early.
I have no problems with the PSN network in terms of connection issues or anything like that either. It seems like certain games perform slightly better on one of the consoles but that is it. Fifa usually has less bugs/hackers then xbox.
If the PSN was really bad and Xbox Live was much better I would make the switch, but it's not...it's only slightly better and you have to pay for it...and that's for the current gen, you don't know how it's going to be with the PS4 and the next Xbox.

i think sony needs to step it up a notch and...
create dedicated servers for every PS4 game at least for ps+ members. then we have the best of both worlds.

Naz, you ever play on xbox?? Ever experience the xbox live content, or the interface they have compared to sony??
Not even close..I pay for xbox live gold and I spend the majority of my nights on PSN to play with my old buds...Thats how much better it is...

Yeah I've played on friends and family's systems many times. Like I said the PSN is just a name, they can easily change the interface for the PS4. Your right about the extra content...if your taking about the TV/music apps but nothing there really interests me except HBO GO. But I can find that on the web just like everything else or on actual TV.
PSN is a step behind no doubt but some of the things aren't actual deal breakers. This is Sony's first attempt at a online service like the PSN so maybe the 2nd time around they'll do better.

If your going to be able to LIVE STREAM what your playing on the PS4, i'm POSITIVE they've had their network revamped.
