Some gaf insiders have said as much, they also said MS is behind schedule so this could also be a result of devs not having enough time with the devkit/XBone

Jonathon Blow: PS4 Games Were Running on Dev Kits, Not High-End PCs

- Start date

If its non exclusive it could simply mean the pc verison is further along.
It could also mean that the developer didn't have enough xbox ones to bring them all to the show.
I'm not sure why we are still listening to blow. He isn't subjective he is just out to bash ms as much as possible. I wouldn't take his word on anything at this point.

Was it 100% confirmed that The Division was running on a PS4 devkit, not "a PC with equivalent specs" or whatever bullshit? That was maybe the only footage I saw that really screamed "next-gen visuals" to me.

My question is WHY?
Is Microsoft being deceptive? Is the hardware not far enough along or reliable enough for the public to see?

What he siad makes me wonder if PS4 will be out before Xbox 1. Maybe we will see PS4 in late October?
I wouldn't be surprised if they're just verifying what the initial stock levels will be before they go in for the killing blow like that.
Judging by the large allocations that some stores are getting for preorders, its entirely likely.

we'll probably find out IF
when japan get their system announced and price
they COULD go for a world wide release if there's enough systems to go around
and we get a specific release date.

I would imagine big publishers such as EA doing the same for cross platform games then.

Even devs call it XBone now? Hilarious!
The name is starting to stick in some situations, yes.

on twitter. you have to cut corners somewhere and it's easier to say even if people don't like it.

If I have to guess, I'll go with "not reliable enough".
If this were a prize fight, the first few opening rounds have been devastating for MS.
Sometimes you have lose a great deal to remember who you are. This is a different Sony. A Sony whom I suspect MS did not anticipate would rise so focused from the ashes.
MS has been flailing from the punches since February. Outwardly they seem in disarray, I can only imagine the struggle internally.
The plan was to side step Sony and take the fight to Apple and Google, but you don't get to fight a champion until you beat the guy right in front of you.

XB1 is two characters shorter, but Xbone has stuck.

XB1 sounds like a different product. could be a surround sound system, a headset, etc.

Corporate dickishness in the gaming realm where one console maker tries to fuck over gamer's rights completely? No.

Boyes said they had some PS4s with working innards running at E3, but I'm not sure if that statement included devkits or not.
Blow needs some space to properly articulate everything that's going on in his head, twitter's shitty character restriction is his natural enemy (and the natural enemy of intelligent discourse and in-depth discussion in general). It's easy to see how he would come across as brash and heated even though people who've seen his in-person interviews know that he's different when given more time and space.
Well, this likely explains some of the issues with the demo. Hopefully they can clean it up before launch.Rushy form Evolution
