My theory surrounding todays drama is Microsoft are doing their best to prevent visual comparisons between multiplats. It seems like the perfect fit.

I wouldn't trust Arthur Gies as far as I could throw him and neither should Pernello.

"playing" dumb? unpossible
Wait what? Polygon is owned by Microsoft? Man we're getting our legs pulled...shit I wonder if Arthur would have scored the Last of Us a 7.5 if it was an X360 exclusive? lol

Finally got caught up with this thread. So...what in the blue sky diving hell happened in here? I don't even know what this thread is about anymore because how much "information" and derailing that has been going on.
 
I would imagine that someone at Sony would be VERY interested to know the contents of conversation between Misters Gies and Panello...

agree 100% just pointing out that I feel there is certainly going to be some animosity towards a place like GAF...



You think I couldn't throw that together with MS word and Photoshop?

I'm sure you could, but that email right there is very real and sent to me 10 mins ago. Shit like that is why I love shopping at amazon
 
You mean Microsoft?

Why am I not surprised shit like that is from that guy.

And he gets away with it.


He got away with it because the... things that have happened so far have been in the other direction -- "defending" a certain company or issue.

But directly breaking an NDA to give information to the competitor -- worse, while NOT doing the same to his readers?

That's the bottom of the barrel.

Could not care less about game "journalists" being inconvenienced by MS or Sony. CBOAT alluded earlier to the fact that the real ass storm has not been revealed, this is what I want to know about.

Damn. These are dark days indeed.

These are dark times. Times without hope.

Fanboys of faith claim that this is a test from Microsoft, to strengthen our spirit. Perhaps this is true, or perhaps it is simply a pious lie. If it is true, darkness has come to engulf once-proud Microsoft, and we are witnessing the end of the Xbox brand.

What motivates a man to to cancel the preorder that most of us would keep? Condemning him to solitude, exposing him to boredom and a nextgen-less Christmas? The answer... is resolution. A force so powerful that all reason becomes blind to it. Blind to all things... even the truth.

Loss of pixels can make a man desperate. Desperate enough to do anything to bury the truth, to hide from its pain.

Cboat appeared and said that Xbone has major problems beyond COD stuff, and people would find out at launch.


That's it :)


So why is there no thread about this yet?

Seems like a legit thread...

Cboat should have his own thread, were we post all of his posts on the OP.

Thank you for capturing the Gies tweets, GAF.

Even if nothing ends up happening with this, I'm glad that you guys are here to keep these people at least somewhat honest.

You missed it, there was an absolute monster of a thread on it earlier today, got locked because some special snowflake posted a screen cap from 4chan and tried to pass it off as a legitimate source / rumor.

They are making a mistake. This public 'cryptic' messaging is deflecting the issue that effects us gamers - i.e. performance etc.

Oh wait...
 
Thanks.

It truly pisses me off that Cboat and other "journalists" knowing the issues are not spilling it. Hopefully if these journalists cant do their job correctly I hope that the likes of IGN, gamespot etc etc all go bankrupt.

Hopefully someone with balls leaks it.

To be fair to CBOAT - he risks whatever it is he does whenever he posts. There are limits to what he can divulge without revealing who he is. The same cannot be said about other journalists.

Best part of that post was that the 4chan poster was mortimers BS spewing doppelganger lmfao kind of a dead giveaway

Bish's post in the other thread has me to believe that it's a major issue. Can't wait to find out what it is.

This whole thread read like
"Shit, bad news coming out, let's do something to derail it."
Mission accomplish

If true and all this is over the one off launch event I will have lost all respect for Sessler. Getting your wife involved and talking about switching careers over something like that is beyond ridiculous.

Yes, it's going up that week. I think Gies and co. need to take a step back and have a good think. Unless they don't want to review online features I guess.
Agree completely...this isn't just a review event for KZ/Knack/Resogun(?)/any other obscure 1st party game...this is a review event for the console as a whole....


You can't review the PS4 in its intended retail form without the PSN and firmware 1.5....the games themselves could be reviewed on a debug or dev unit regardless of the state of the system software...
 
How will MS handle the hardware reviews of x1? Will it be like 48hrs before launch too, or stil too early to tell? I hate it, but I want the reviewers to get a hardware that is going to be reflective of what the public will get on launch, with all that features from firmware and stuff.

There is literally nothing to see here. Just a bunch of journalists crying about not getting their cookies.

Probably they are too used to do reviews at home, on cozy couch and wives bringing them tea/M. dew/Doritos/blue envelopes
 
Heres the deal: Xbox Live Gold is for skype, Dvr and stuff... To play online you'll need Xbox Live Platinum! 119$ per year.
Just in case someone actually think this is true: its not, its a joke! .. man jokes on gaf lost all meaning

The consoles could be in locked rooms 6 miles from the journalists and Gies would never see a problem with it...and he certainly wouldn't be sending Shu DM's on twitter about MS policies...
