hmmm, havent heard anything official from microsoft yet regarding no mp3 playback though. Did see them meantion dlna though. Sony streaming has always been quite locked down compared to microsoft though......cinevia for example.
Sony actual come out and said it doesnt support dlna. i did find it strange as most things do nowdays.
The other thing i cant get my head round is how sony were quick to claim " we are a dedicated GAMES console and dont focus on non gaming" yet they seem to be focusing on media now more and more each day. The very thing they slagged microsoft off for..
The more i read storys of both consoles, the more im getting turned off tbh. So much fanboyism, so many petty arguements. My dads better than your dad bollocks.
These two companys are in business to MAKE money, and are each taking as many cheap shots at each other as possible.so many made up stories for each console. xb1 isnt powerful enough,ps4 has overheating problems blah blah blah.... Its really quite sad. You've got every one one and their aunt arguing and defending their brand yet 95% have yet to see any first hand footage or play on one yet. Its really quite odd lol
From what ive see (first hand) i could not see any major difference in performance between consoles. I did not see both consoles run the same game though. What i mean is i didnt look at xb1 games and think "the graphics look much better than ps4" or visa versa. Both consoles had some really good looking games,and some not so good.
As meantioned already i would much rather have a game that runs native 720p, but has loads of things going on on screen and runs a solid 60fps over something that runs 1080p and stutters and screen rips like fuck. Im not claiming ps4 stutters before anyone claims that. I have not seen first hand footage of cod ghosts on ps4.
All sony need to focus on in my eyes is getting online play up to scratch. You can have a game look great but if online gaming is full of lag, booting form games and hosting issues then people wont play. Te more people on line, the better the experience. Sony really need to push for a xbox live experience. They have the raw power, they have the games, they just need the online part now. Only problem being that that is the expensive part. servers are seriously expensive and i just dont think sony has the money to cover it. Hopefully with good sales of hardware,and now income of psn, this should improve.
I have pre ordered the xbox one off of the games i played,the games i liked and the up and coming games i want....Most of my friends have xbox 360's so more than likely will progress onto xb1. Eventually i might get a ps4 too. but for now i can only afford one console.
Both consoles WILL BE AWESOME and will give you many good memorys and awesome times
