“Sony didnt even have a connection to the internet on 2009”

Then how In the world were I able to play Uncharted 2 & LBP Online Multi Player back then?

lol

Obviously you don’t know what you are talking about same with the 17 suckers who approved of what you said.

*smh falcepalm

So sad 🙁 these people are loosers
There should be a separate comment section for those people

Nope. The closest to it when Sony using the DRM backlash to decide how to message it, hence the kerbstomping Xbone got at E3. And yes, they were always aiming at the $399 magic point hence no camera at all.

Seems like you’re built up your nice little conspiracy theory so you can reassure yourself that MS weren’t being unilaterally malignant.

Actually, Sony was. To deny it, despite many articles reporting it including Engadget and Cnet, proves that you are a fanboy. And they removed it not because they wanted to price below the Xbox One, but because they saw the bad press generated from Microsoft’s announcement and didn’t want to further taint their reputation and wanted to beat Microsoft out of the gate this generation of consoles. Sony is not this pro-consumer or pro-gamer corporation like everyone apparently believes them to be.

No, Sony did not have the same plans. They were not going to bundle the camera and they were not going implement DRM. Get over it.

lol I love how you resort to fanfiction in order to be able to function. MS would have been stuck with that crappy camera, even if they wanted to get rid of it. The OS is built around it. Deal with it.

Yet Microsoft also backtracked in the exact same manner Sony did, so by the same logic Microsoft is on equal footing as Sony except for the bad press Microsoft has/had by having the balls to be truthful and open about their plans (the same ones that Sony had). The story would be very different if Sony had announced their plans first; Microsoft would have been praised for “not doing” DRM and removing Kinect to drop the console price by $100, and Sony would be on the losing side by choosing to keep the DRM initially and keeping with the PS Eye for $100 more than the direct competitor. I’m actually fairly certain that if Microsoft had kept Kinect in that scenario to keep price the same for both consoles, even considering the NSA crap and conspiracy theories, Xbox One would still be the preferable console at this point. However, the reality is the opposite, and your argument is not logically sound. I know this is the internet and humans have devolved to argue over the most petty differences of opinion, but if it’s alright for one company to backtrack on so me kind of policies, then by equal logical measure it is alright for the other direct competitors to change their policies when they are essentially are the same at the core.

They did everything wrong. The massive backlash showed that. Deal with it.

“Sony had extremely similar policies that Microsoft did, but backtracked just like Microsoft did; why is no one talking about that?” Because it didn’t happen.

Most Xbots kept their mouths shut when they got humiliated after MS ditched their DRM despite their best excuses. It takes balls to continue to stick to that rampant stupidity months after it got bulldozed into the landfill of history.

I don’t lose. The only people losing are people like you who are drawing out conditions to make Microsoft look bad when they did nothing wrong in the first place with their up to every 24 hour license validation policy for discless playback of games (notice wording there…up to every, not every). I misread your previous comment; my mistake. DRM is DRM; if you’re going to attack one company doing it, then you need to logically attack every other company doing it as well, and that means Steam, Origin, and every game publisher at the moment, not just Microsoft. There was nothing invasive about Microsoft’s validation check-in at all. Lest we forget, Sony had extremely similar policies that Microsoft did, but backtracked just like Microsoft did; why is no one talking about that? Oh, that’s right, because it’s Sony and the only thing we keep on referencing is E3 from last year.

The open platform is the PC, you doughnut. If I don’t want to play games using Steam I don’t have to.

There’s DRM and then there’s the invasive crap MS was planning. I’m glad they failed.

You lost. End of story.

Same uninformed argument based on the same misinterpreted information from the beginning. Steam is also a closed, proprietary platform that does have competition from other game vendors from every platform. You keep throwing around DRM like it’s something Microsoft is just now trying when reality is DRM has existed for quite some time now regardless of what kind of software or media it is. There is no wrong side of history here since we’re not even a year into this now current generation of consoles.
