Decline PS4 wins the console war against XboxONE, yet it is a hollow victory as Consolesdämmerung is upon us

    I'm pretty sure it's "an amount of time completely impractical with American internet speeds" (and MS is clearly only targeting NA, as that's the only place the 360 sold outside the UK). Cloud has clear uses for work environment, but it's pretty useless for video games short of save syncs.

    Also, whoever posted that pic on Wired made one crucial mistake. It should be saying "Betamax" and not VHS on the case. :P

    Pay a monthly fee to access Microsoft servers so they can monitor your console and charge you to re-buy your games from them.

    It's so stupid that it might work.

    God damn, you lot are fucking edgy.

    I actually like the VCR look - it's practical and it fits the TV room aesthetics, something consoles generally don't do. I also like the idea of a single device to take control of said TV room, but luckily we already have PCs for that - but it certainly doesn't look like a bad media centre. Actual gaming? It seems comparable to the PS4, but with potentially more exclusives and a better online service. So why exactly would somebody choose the PS4?

    Why would anyone choose at all? My name's not Sophie, thank you very much.

    Not sure how nice that HDMI in feature will play with the cable set boxes all over the world, is it a US only option?

    The best part of the conference in a five second gif for the users of the Codex that can't expose their brain to decline for longer than that.
