Microsoft paying third parties not to show multiplats on PS4.

Sounds like some thing MS would do, but it sounds a little fishy. Why wouldn't MS spend that money for timed exclusivity like the normally do instead of just giving them money not to show games?Ghost120x

Yea that is what I am thinking but I guess neogaf "insiders" are a reliable source now.

If it is true,  it seems like a waste because those publishers could just show the PS4 versions when E3 ends. But hey...it's their money.

that "billion dollars" at its best, who needs games when they can spend it in unlawful competition ROFL

because they wont be able to compete with ps4 with timed exclusives and all the bs that is raining over xbone.

Bullshit. People are so pissed at Microsoft right now over the used games / Kinect crap that everyone is determined to make the ONE fail. Sadly Microsoft doesn't look like they need the help doing that. I don't believe any of these rumors anymore.

gamers feel jaded, but really nothing has been confirmed, and I bet PS4 does the same thing but somehow they will get the pass?   They are trying to be heard which I respect, but in the end, the blind hating is going to poke them in the rear.    X1 is going to be a hit, and I predict it now.    but but the underclockzzzzzzzz

Sony would participate in just as much "shady, unethical business practices" as MS is currently doing (in fact, in the past when Sony was more financially stable, they did just that) but at the moment, they frankly don't have the money to do so.

As a company, MS is worth FIFTEEN TIMES what Sony is worth...they're the evil empire trying to ruin all the kids fun. Sony, on the other hand, only cares about creative freedom and gamer happiness and is free from the demands of stock holder profitability expectations...

Their debut conference (which they explicitly stated wouldn't be about games before hand)...wasn't about games so all the internet bloggers went nuts that MS is only targeting 7-year old girls and house wives with the Xbox One.

Just wait until E3...if MS bombs that too...then by all means pass them off as a serious contender for core gamer loyalty.

nope, they destroyed the market with ps1 and ps2 and yet ps3 has none of the bs microsoft has. psn is free and doesn't have bs drm.

M$ wastes more money on shlt like this then they do making games :lol: It's so sad how hard lemmos get penetrated :lol:
