They are working on a work around for people that in your type of situation.
I think they will eventually develop some sort of offline mode like what steam has.

If you are thinking of switching over/or just following the PS4 hype ask yourself these questions
Q. How often does you current console disconnect from the Internet? How often do you actually play it when your disconnected from the Internet? (I have good Internet and have never had this problem)
A. I am may have connectivity issue where I require a repair guy to come out to my home on an average of 3 times a year. When I am disconnected from the internet playing on the console is a god send as I don't watch T.V or can surf the computer so I play console wise.
Q.How often do you buy used games? (I haven't bought a used game since the ps2 days)
A. I buy use games all the time. However only if I get a real steal from it. Say a new game is 59.99 and a use one is 54.99. I'll go new. If a new one is 49.99 and a Use one is 29.99.I ask to see the disc and then purchase. Half of my collection are used game and the other half new, I don't trade in games.
Q.How often do you share your games? (I don't let friends borrow my games because I never get them back)
A.I let my cousin and friends power my game from time to time and always only one at a time for them to test it out. Sometime they like it so much they buy their own copy other times not really.
Q.Are you scared the government is watching your every move through kinect? (This is ridiculous, do y'all understand how many employees they would need to be watching every person with a Xbox 24/7?) and if your still scared, you can turn off the camera in the console settings.
A. From what I heard of the xbox one, if you cover up the camera the system does not work and that is my issue with it. A controller should be all the interface I need not a camera. Also heard if you buy a movie the camera counts how many is watching the film and charges you accordingly. Not cool if true.
Q.Do you think the PS4 has better graphics? (this will only make a real difference on exclusives and the only ps4 exclusive I liked was watch dogs)
A. For me I like Killzone, Order 1886, Knack. Titan fall is just alright for me. I do think the PS4 has more power and seem more multi dimensional then the Xbox 1. However the system now look pretty much the same except Xbox has a GDDR3 and PS4 has a GDDR5.

Tether your cell phone. Watch some movies. Go outside. Read a book.
I think you'd be able to survive 3 days out of 365 without playing a game

Sony has not come out and said what the price for their games will be. Games will become cheaper once the used game market disappears. How often are you able to find games $20 cheaper? I feel like by that time you would be able to download that same game for 29.99 or less. This is how most of my games on demand work right now on my xbox.

Set up a family plan. You can share your games library with up to 10 people as long as you are not trying to play the same game at the same time. You could cut down costs and actually split up who buys what game.

I don't know where you get all your information, but this is incredible false. You can completely turn off the camera and "pause" the audio. The advanced nature of the new kinect will provide something that will improve gaming not hurt it. It will not be watching you or listening to you unless you want it to.

I can understand most of this, but to say the PS4 is more multidimensional than the Xbox One is hilarious personally. I can understand you can say how you like the PS4 more when it comes to gaming and how you play, but from an entertainment side Xbox has and will be leaps and bounds ahead of them.

Posted on 6/16/13 at 4:56 pm to dawgfan24348
Seriously don't understand your "fanboy" flaming. Obviously you are blind to the fact that the majority of the PS people are trying to downplay the other console to persuade others to get a PS. But if you can't afford to buy a new game to support the people that actually made it, too help them make more and improved games in the future, you definitely won't be able to afford the extra $100 for the x1. Therefore PS4 fits you best and nobody is going to make their decision based on what you think

All the time time. Once I'm done with a game I trade it in and get a new one.

All the time. My buddy doesn't trade in games and if there's a game he has I'm interested in but would never buy he'll let me borrow it for the single player (tomb raider for instance)

It will be a decent system but unlike the PS4, its games won't be loaded with DRM and unnecessary restrictions. PS4 also isn't treating their customers with bitter contempt.
Posted on 6/16/13 at 6:24 pm to JombieZombie
All this wailing is pathetic.
Its like going to a gm dealer and whining that the newest caddy has features you dont need or want. Why cant gm just built a decent car that doesnt have all the bells and whistle?
Of course they do build such a car. Its called a chevy.
Why cant ms build different consoles for different customers to?

Dude, you can say the same this about "Xbox people" who are justifying the x1's restrictions and calling out people who don't support it
The reason so many have been shitting on the x1 is because lots of people do want to play used games and don't give a shite about the industry and also MS have been royal douches in explaining the whole thing and to the consumers

Microsoft is pushing the industry forward in my opinion. Once all games are only digital we will forget ever complaining over such trivial issues.
Posted on 6/16/13 at 8:17 pm to LSU Tiger 216
Just get whatever console (or PC, portable system, etc) that you want, fits your needs and budget, and don't worry about justifying it to anyone. This "console war" is stupid. Some of the jokes are funny, but to take this seriously at all is crazy.
We have enough responsibility in this world such as family, work, and school to worry about this stuff. This is supposed to be fun.
Who won E3? Who cares? I think we all did because I think everyone found something that they like (I hope).
As I've said, I don't think the Xbox One will be a bad console. It's probably not for everyone, but it is for some people and I'm glad it's here.
I'm getting a PS4 because I like Playstation. I knew before the PS4 was even announced that I was more than likely getting the next generation Playstation. So, I guess I'm a Playstation fanboy.
I have nothing against Microsoft, Nintendo, or PC gamers. I am happy that there are products for those formats because it further promotes a hobby that I enjoy for people who have different tastes in gaming than I do. I enjoy hearing about the experiences these people have with their consoles and the games exclusive to their consoles.
I'm sorry if I sound like a jerk, but most of these games are gonna be multiplatform anyway, so let's talk about them instead.
To the OP or anyone on this thread, this is not an attack on you. I've never been so excited about this hobby as I've been in the last few months and I just want everyone to enjoy gaming regardless of what system or game genre they choose.

Taking all of this into account and seeing that the PS4 is $100 cheaper, I'm 99% sure I'm going with the PS4. I had both the PS and PS2, then switched to the 360, and it looks like I'm back to Sony.

Yeah we should definitely pay more for a worse system because we're used to buying Xbox.

just because you assholes won't let this thread die a miserable death that it deserves.
How often does you current console disconnect from the Internet? How often do you actually play it when your disconnected from the Internet? I have good interwebs. Never.
How often do you buy used games? I don't buy used games anymore because PC games are so cheap to begin with.
How often do you share your games? I don't have poor friends
Are you scared the government is watching your every move through kinect? Still don't like the idea of an always watching eye. Especially knowing how MS records everything you do on skype. stuff forbes
Do you think the PS4 has better graphics? LOL, I have a PC. You can take your already outdated hardware and go play on the playground with the rest of the shoeless and dirty kids.
