simply by not allowing XBOX One's not to work in Unsupported Countries  :applause :applause :applause :o :applause

While Microsoft's controversial Xbox One policies regarding used games and online authentication are a known quantity at this point, the implications of these restrictions are not yet fully clear. A disclaimer posted on the Xbox.com website for the benefit of pre-order customers, for example, has raised the issue of region-locking — not just for games, but for the console itself.

"Xbox One may not fully work in regions where it has not been officially released"

Wording such as "Requires account on Xbox Live in an Xbox One-supported Xbox Live country" and "Xbox One games are for activation and distribution only in specified geographic regions" have been interpreted by some to mean that the Xbox One will impose strict limitations on how it can be used around the world. It appears that the console will not fully work in regions where it has not been officially released.

I had an Xbox360. I'm so happy with it. But, now lilipat na ako sa PS because of MS stupidity.

We seem to be forgetting the Wii U. It's going to be a battle between Sony and Nintendo. And it's shaping up to be a really exciting battle!

By the time PS4 will be released, Wii U will be in circulation for almost a year. Because of MS's FUBAR Wii U sales have improved by 85%. Analysts are already expecting a price cut for the Wii U.

The bad thing for the hardcore gaming crowd are the Wii U games. Nintendo likes to play it safe. Most of the games are aimed at the family oriented or casual or elderly or female players. But it could work to Nintendo's favor since the best selling titles of the last generation were Wii Play and Wii Sports.

Also ongoing is the 3rd Generation handheld war. It's the Nintendo DS currently in the lead vs PS Vita. A new challenger is entering and it's not Microsoft. An absolute new comer, Nvidia is going to release a handheld console called Project Shield.

Nintendo is Nintendo even Sony won't care about the sales of Nintendo kahit manalo sila sa console wars ang nintendo Sony won't care because they won in the format wars that is Blu-ray even Microsoft used blu-ray disk

may nasabi dito na hindi sa Sony ang blu-ray and yet ang sony ang naka-imbento ng blu-ray and it needed investment to support the format kaya it is a corporation thing ang blu-ray at may shares dun ang Sony therefore may returns ang sony sa pagbebenta ng blu-ray disk

handheld sana hindi maging katulad ang NVIDIA sa wonderswan at mananalo ang NIntendo sa handheld unique ang mga games ng nintendo parang seperate entity sya sa console sa handheld unlike sa PSP e parang naglaro ka lang ng PS2 or PS3 na handheld version

Kailangan ng PS+ para maka paglaro online?

Tulad din ba ito sa XBOX 360 na kailangan ng XBOX Live subscriptions bawat account para makapaglaro online o lahat nang account pwede maka paglaro online basta't isa sa mga account mo ay naka PS+?

For games that are Online, Story Based Games remain Offline, Multilayer between PS4s do not need PS+ account
