No way, EA is not that stupid. The rumor according to Gamespot has more to do with first dibs (timed release) on DLC and some other things.pigpen81 wrote:Like EA or not, but if Fifa and Madden are exclusive to the XBOX it could be game over for the PS4 already.Rodster wrote:Supposedly according to Gamespot.com, there's going to be an announcement about an EA/Microsoft partnership.

Tell Sega how not stupid EA is. If Microsoft writes a big enough check, EA will play ball.Rodster wrote:No way, EA is not that stupid.

That said, I don't think EA is going exclusive to Microsoft.

Stupid name...everyone thinks the "One" moniker is a good idea. I disagree.

far as the design. It's non-existent. My Verizon set top box, is better looking
for all the hate the Sony PS line receives, they've managed to put out attractive, dependable consoles, in their entire history

I thought I already owned the Xbox One?

Re: New Xbox AND PS4 Info/Rumors
This thing is going to cost a fortune.
The xbox, not the STD. That's pretty cheap to clear up.

Only a few exclusives being announced today. E3 is going to get the bulk of the announcements.fsquid wrote:is this thing going to play games?

EA Ignite - where mario running comes back and takes 5 years to fix. It's in the game.

That "look and play" EA Sports video was underwhelming.

Later this year. No kidding.
Re: New Xbox AND PS4 Info/Rumors
Best thing I heard was "bigger matches, more players" over xbox live. Hope this means we will finally get 64 (or more) player matches in BF4.

I must be old now since I just want to play games.
Re: New Xbox AND PS4 Info/Rumors
I like what I've seen. Like it a lot. The console and controller are badass. Can't wait to see more games.

Re: New Xbox AND PS4 Info/Rumors
There wasn't game shown that made me say wow. And that FIFA demo was really lame especially the dribble with the ball, with arm out to block the defender while looking over the shoulder animation. I did like the multi-tasking, snap and switch presentation. That was pretty cool.

Totally agree. The words that struck me were "lag-free" and "mostly silent." If those are true, the experience will be pretty damned amazing.Rodster wrote: I did like the multi-tasking, snap and switch presentation. That was pretty cool.
The bit about having 300k+ servers running, to be able to allow server-side computations like Sony is, is also a potentially big deal. Opens up a ton of gaming possibilities.
I was pretty impressed. I think MS did a good job managing expectations about showing games. They put the hardware right there front and center as a subtle counter to Sony's inexplicable failure to do so. They leveraged the most obvious spots: NFL, world football, UFC, CoD, Halo, etc. by using at least limited exclusivity. They're aiming very high with the TV pass-through, but if it works that will be pretty huge.
It's going to cost a truckload, though.
