LOL, I don't think you get it. I wasn't comparing anything at all from the two. You simply stated that everything from them was great, and I simply said that I thought that one thing was dumb. Nowhere in there did I say anything about the touchpad on the controller being just as bad as blocking used games or anything like that. So take a step back and calm yourself.

That was exactly the comparisons I was making, so when you reply with "But yeah, that touchpad was stupid", that just implies that yeah, there were shitty things at the PS4 conference. But I was referring to shitty anti-consumer stuff, not shitty "I don't like the controller" or "Where's the actual console?" stuff.

Can anyone explain what that Per-user-view shit means in English?

It works exactly the same way on steam. When I buy a game its downloaded and tied to my account. I can basically go to any other computer in the world and the games follow me.

The same thing will happen on the xbox. If your xbox dies your games follow you and arn't tied to anything hardware. It's a form of DRM that works rather well imo.

Well if you thought I was actually comparing a part of a controller to everything Microsoft is doing and thinking it was equally bad for both sides, then I don't know what to tell you.

I remember hearing about this back when the rumors were flying. I really don't understand what they're thinking. This feels like either some sort of crude sabotage method from within MS, or all the technology conglomerates are beginning a new phase of taking over the world.

I guess the upside to this is I assume it would really only apply to Zune movies, and I have never met a person who wastes their money on those overpriced fuckers.

I actually knew someone that had a zune player back in the day. It was like a relic from an indiana jones movie when I seen that it actually exsisted.

HDMI carries sound and video Mr Wizard.

I understand that. On my ps3, I use an optical audio cable with the DVI converter.

[PP]

DVI doesnt carry sound. So if Dave uses the converter he it only does video. some of the jokes were dumb. but I can see where the confusion comes from.

Ok, so why are people bashing it as if it's a bad thing? I'm kind of confused.

The best thing Xbox One has to offer: Cool looking game cases.

Because that isn't exactly correct. MS says that you can't take the game and go to another console even with your account info and play the game

If that's what per-view-user is (what leaf said) but MS isn't exactly doing that, then what exactly are they implementing..?

Long day for me apparently.

No that is not the per view.

Per-view I believe is for content like movies and such. They use the kinect to measure how many people are in the room or some shit and deduct from a limit

Ok, so are you saying the cost of a movie you purchase will depend on the amount of people are watching?

The amount of times you view it is based on how many people are watching
