Microsoft to reveal EA partnership at Next Xbox event Hope it's not just timed exclusive DLC 'cause that would be a waste.

Xbox 720 will be weaker than PS4, and more focus on Kinect 2.0 which is built inside Xbox 720, and this alone cost alot. Sony puted all their money on powerful machine, while microsoft puts their money on Kinect 2.0
So yeah, PS4 won |

Just like your "unprecedented partnership" with Nintendo, right EA?

If all these Xbox rumors are true, looks like this will be a Nintendo only generation for me. I've never found Playstation appealing and Xbox looks really interested in screwing over customers. Make mine a Nintendo I guess. I'm surprised Microsoft isn't doing any damage control with these rumors. I've yet to hear one that makes the system seem worth buying.

I will say...I'm coming off very "jerkish" in regards to the next Xbox, only because of the rumors. If they show this thing off and debunk EVERYTHING we've heard thus far...Well...Then...Game on!
However, Microsoft not doing any kind of clean up in regards to these rumors really worries me... |

![]() But given they have their own conference upcoming, sometimes it might be better to let negative rumours spread and then blow them away completely. Epic Games have done this with their new Gears of War game coming out next month. They let all the fans believe one of the classic game modes and game mechanics was being thrown out based on rumours and have only just announced that they are actually both being included. As the announcement is closer to release than the initiation of the rumours, the hype (judging from the Epic forums) seems to be higher than if the rumours had never existed (on the basis of that one issue at least). Although there are still several negative rumours that haven't been denied yet. ![]() Quote:

Kinect alone cost 150 us dollars. If they make Xbox 720 same powerful as PS4, plus Kinect 2.0 built in, this means Xbox 720 is going to cost more than PS4, a lot more. I don´t think Microsoft wants to go with big prices. There are 2 choice. Make powerful console, or make weaker console with Kinect 2.0 If you want powerful console with Kinect 2.0, then it going to cost a lot, and Microsoft just wont do that. All we know that Microsoft said that Kinect is future, and Kinect 2.0 will be main part of Xbox 720 |

Also, when PS4 and Xbox 720 comes out, devs make 3 platform games(PC,X720 and PS4) and easy to port when grahpic is almost same, i mean limit and such things, but when Wii U is too different and very weak, then i don´t think devs make ANOTHER NEW FULLY PORT to Wii U which will flop anyway because Wii U is all about casual gaming. Nintendo already played out of next gen war. |

y'know, I've been playing games since the NES days, and I've been gaming in each generation of consoles since then.
this coming generation with PS4 and XBOX 3 just might be the 1st generation where I'm seriously considering sitting it out. Nothing of what I've heard from Sony and MS has got me terribly excited for either console. and the "digital" direction both seem to be heading towards has got me concerned. Maybe if Nintendo brings back classic franchises like Zelda and Metroid to the Wii U, I might return to Nintendo after a long absence. but, as of now.......I'm just not feeling this next gen of gaming........

Or they offer a cheaper subsidized SKU like one that has been rumored for months (and like the 360 models they currently sell). Sign up to pay x amount a month for XBL (or cable as was also rumored) for 3 years or whatever and buy a substantially cheaper console, ala the same type of pricing model used for iPhones.

Also, it's not like the motion technology in the PS4 is going to be weak either.

As far as graphics, no doubt the next Xbox and PS4 will look better than the Wii U, but I don't think it will be as significant a jump as it was this gen. For one, you were comparing 480p SD Wii games against 720p native resolution HD 360/PS3 games. Next gen, ALL will presumably be 1080p native resolution so while the Wii U wont look as great, it definetly wont look terrible either. With the Wii, many games weren't actually ports, but in fact different games bc publishers handed the project to a different team bc the Wii-mote and hardware's limitations made it impossible to translate. I think we will see more actual ports this coming gen, with the Wii U releases, being merely scaled back versions of the other two. I think it will end up being more like a situation on the PC with a game played on the minimum requirements (Wii U) and that same game on the max settings (next Xbox/PS4) |

LMAO, that's all Nintendo does, reuse its franchises that its been pushing out games for every generation for the last couple of decades. They are nothing if not consistent

To be fair...We didn't really see a new Metroid on the Wii... And no, I don't count Other M.
