I can't believe I'm talking about this shit but here goes. The PS4 and the Xbox One.

I'm late to the party as usual but sometimes it's good to be late. It lets you sit back and hear and see all of the idiotic things that people do and say. With that being said I will make this as short as possible. Everyone is talking about the Xbox One and how MS has changed its DRM policies dealing with the console. Yay Xbox fans right??? Wrong!!!! I'm going to sound like a complete ass but anyone who is still thinking about getting one of those after that little stunt that MS pulled is an idiot. I'm not a Sony or Nintendo fanboy, I'm just a fan of good gaming in general. I have a PS3, I've owned multiple 360s and a Wii U is actually next on my list to purchase. MS was going to screw you with no lubrication and now you feel it's alright to get the console because if you don't check in every twenty four hours it won't become just an expensive blu ray player. Or maybe it's because you can finally sell or lend your games to more than one person. I've even heard people complain about the family share plan being axed. Lmao. If you want to share a game with someone just give them the disc people.(#PS4) Or you can set up multiple live accounts for the people in your house. Bam!!! Family sharing at its finest. And what's even more screwed up is that Don Mattrick said that people without the internet can stick with the 360. I guess he doesn't realize that everyone doesn't have access to the internet or some people just choose not play their console online. Yet you still want to throw your money at this corporation that really doesn't give a damn about you. And I can't forget about the drones who are hating on Sony. In my opinion Sony has always been ahead of the curb when it comes to gaming. People complained about the price of the PS3 when it launched but look at everything that you got with it: A blu ray player when blu ray players were still almost a thousand dollars, WiFi connectivity, you could use 2.5" notebook HDs for storage which are relatively cheap, USB charging for your controllers, media card readers, the 60 and 80GB models were backwards compatible and the hardware was actually pretty good. I've owned two PS3s and I wasn't angry when the first one died after six years of me playing games, watching blu rays, Netflix, hulu and so forth. I was pissed when my 360 died only 2-3 months after I purchased it though. Since then I've owned two more of the bastards and I have to say they aren't what people make them out to be. The Xbox slim is what the original Xbox should'v been from day one and I won't purchase one of those. I just find it funny that people have such loyalty to a company that they will continue to stay with them no matter what they do to them. Will I get an Xbox one??? Yes. But it's going to be a few years down the road and when I do it's going to be used. MS is going to get little to none of my money. Just my opinion as usual though. Be safe people and remember, the Kinect is watching you..................
