    Correct. They might be able to be streamed when they get that service up and running, but as it is now, zero backwards compatibility on retail or digital.

    Pretty much. Although its funny b/c there is literally NOTHING now that justifies the $100 extra price point (unless you want Halo or some other XB1 exclusive).

    To me Sony's "dominating" MS in a PR war right now. Its like a Presidential Election:

    1. Primaries - You play to the base (hardcore gamers) - Sony did that MS had an epic fail in this category

    Once you have the primary battle locked up (which Sony does)

    2. Slowly (but surely) go after the independents/casual voters (softcore gamers) - Sony is now doing this while MS is having to go back to the base and do another 180 every other week.

    Yep. Streamed or ported like what's rumored with Grand Theft Auto Online.

    A $150+ camera? Way better launch lineup? Better controller for shooters? Better online features?

    There's plenty of reasons to justify a purchase of the One. Hell, the only reason I'm even getting a PS4 is for games from Naughty Dog, Santa Monica, and Sony's other first party studios. When it comes to online gaming and shooters (which is what I enjoy the most), Sony doesn't have it.

    Does "launch lineup" not = "unless you want Halo or some other XB1 exclusive" the controller "better" thing is BS you can adjust to any controller its just a matter of whatever you are used to. I'm also not aware of any XB1 "better" online features unless you think the old 180 policies were "better" they are pretty much exactly the same other than the UI. IF anything Sony has the edge there b/c you don't have to pay for Netflix, etc.... where you do for XB1.

    If you want to say you prefer XB1s games thats fine and logical otherwise your just being the fanboy we all know you to be. The difference between you and I us I don't deny I'm a Sony fanboy.

    Unless you're somehow blown away by Knack, Driveclub, or Killzone, I don't see what you could possibly be interested in that's exclusive to Sony and on launch day. It's extremely bare, and the first 2 of those games have looked like absolute shit in the game play department. Killzone's fate rests upon it's online component, which they've been tight lipped so far about.

    Not BS about the controller. It's clearly the better one for shooters. Considering you don't even play shooters, I don't exactly understand how you would even know(?).

    As for better online features, are you kidding? Dedicated servers, smart matchmaking, and cross game chat/parties. Sony apparently has cross game chat, but if it's as poor as it is on Vita, it might as well not even be there. The matchmaking system and dedicated servers alone (along with the superior controller for shooters) make it far and away the more attractive console for online shooters.

    LMAO @ free Netflix being an online advantage. Give me a break. I'm talking games, I don't care about TV and the entertainment apps garbage.

    And no, the difference between you and I is that I'm informed in what I'm talking about. You just spew babble about stuff you don't even know what you're talking about (for example the controller being better in shooters when YOU DON'T EVEN PLAY SHOOTERS). I have absolutely no preference in my consoles, hence why I'm getting both on release day. I realized a LONG time ago that if I wanted quality single player experiences, I'd want to roll with Sony, while also realizing that if I wanted a console that is rich for online shooters and game play, I'd want to roll with Microsoft. I've always had both consoles. As I said before, to accuse me of being a fan boy of either one is asinine. A. I don't care how well they sell and which one sells more. B. I don't agree with brand loyalty because as I've said, I think it's weird as fuck someone could be tied to a brand that much. C. I have all the consoles and systems and I crank out a good bit of money for all of them, so I fail to see how I'm a fan boy of anything.

    If you want something to latch on to, I don't like Nintendo. Feel free to run with that. I'm anti-Nintendo. You caught me.

    Not hardly. I bitch about my Vita all the time. Does that mean I'm a fan boy of smartphones or Nintendo?

    I mean, you guys do understand what fan boy means, right? It's kind of hard to be a Microsoft fan boy when you've forked over God only knows how much for the PS3 and the Vita, along with a launch day PS4 and 2 games reserved. I'm just saying.

    Just because I refute CLW's horseshit that he posts on a regular basis doesn't mean anything. It just so happens that he worships Sony and has some weird hatred towards Microsoft, so all I'm ever refuting is his bashing of Microsoft. I guess that could come across as being a fan boy, but I can assure that I'm not. We just need to get someone here who feels as strongly about Microsoft and has a weird hatred towards Sony and then I'll refute them on their BS as well.

    Sony seems poised to reveal its plans for PlayStation 4's release date during Gamescom in Germany next week. Its press conference -- which you can watch live on IGN August 20 -- begins "at 18:00 BST on 20 August 2013 with a briefing to media on our release plans for PlayStation 4, as well as updates on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita."

    Indeed, expect a precise release date to compete with Microsoft's Xbox One November launch.

    Yeah, really, lets just throw the whole Netflix crap out of the argument. Unless you're really fucking stupid and are going to buy a $400 console JUST to watch Netflix, or you only play single-player games and nothing but single-player games, you're going to be buying Plus for multiplayer. So in the end it'll be a total wash, paying for Live/Plus, and paying for your Netflix subscription. Only difference will be one side is technically on one side of the paywall and one on the other. But easily 90%+ will be buying Plus along with their PS4, so between Live/Plus and Netflix, it will ultimately be a wash.

    I just want the PS4 installations to go a lot faster than the installations on PS3.

    With background downloading plus the ability to select what part of a game downloads first (single-player or multi-player), it sounds like Sony wants downloads to be less of a burden on the PS4.

    Yep that's prob also why they reserved a ridiculous amount of the memory for the UI as well to make it run smoothly (or at least that's the only reason I can think of why they would)

    PS+ could be very profitable for Sony.

    I'm sure it will be. Gold is for MS. I don't like the concept and prefer the way it currently is on PS3 but obviously Sony did their cost-benefit analysis and decided players would pay for it.
