Yes there may be OS issues and PSN issues at launch although from the sound of it they are far less major than the MS issue

Oh, both things go well together.
But yeah, I expected both launches to be a big patchathon and offlinethon.

Only a couple of billion $$$$ at stake. No biggie
Xbox one has spoken.

LOL!!!
Sony is apparently putting the screws to reviewers, by not releasing early retail PS4s to reviewers and controlling the review environment.

it's even worse, you can't change backgrounds, dealbreaker
You need to for it to be balanced

Thats just CBOAT emerging into existence.
There's no OS issues because there's no way to fuck up hardware and software at the same time?
I can assure you that hardware and software issues very often go hand-in-hand. But hey, with that username and all, I assume I'm wasting my time here.

Mort don't let this get you down! This is a hobby we all enjoy and are passionate about. Don't let your passion get you down man, the launch is near and we have many games to play together along with all GAF down the road!

Do we have any concrete evidence that PS4 will have said issues at launch? Or is it just conjecture at this point?
welp, case closed
Well you ought to know.
This thread is crazy.
Mort, man, you have to stop letting this stuff get to you. You need to know, we appreciate your info you bring out. It's awesome. But with this stuff, you're just a guy who knows a guy. I mean, you're a human being with thoughts, feelings, and emotions, and this is not to take away from that, but most people aren't interested in the accomplishments of the insider but of the information. There will be people who will not believe you. Always. If it goes against their biases, some of them just can't take it, and they won't believe you. You don't have to prove it to them. They will not believe you. It doesn't matter. You get information out, and that's great. Just don't make the info about you rather than the info.

If its like this now, launch night is gonna be fucking nuts.

Ah, thank you.
Well I can live with a day 1 300 mb patch and temporary lack of suspend/resume.
A messed up OS with screwy online features and 720p multiplats is far, far worse.

It will be worst at 15 Nov.
Any minor hardware problems occur on no matter how smaller portion of PS4, we will get a lot of Junior poster reporting theirs PS4 brick or something. Every major site will then pick up the story and make it head line.
Full on war is upon us.

I don't think you can even change the green color on the XB1

you know this is some serious shit when the hardware starts posting.
will ps4 comment?
will ps4 comment?
Let's wait and see.
It's certainly annoying if your job demands you trying to get a review out by release date. Not to mention that the industry already follows embargos.
Adam Sessler certainly over reacted the other day about it though.
Uhh, what the fuck? Is this real? Has it been confirmed by a legit source?
If so this is absolutely outrageous. My X360 allows me to change the background. My smartphone allows this. Hell, my old Samsung flip phone let me change the background. So did my old Pentium 1 Compaq Desktop running Windows 95.
Why can't I change the background of my PS4 OS interface?
Please excuse me as I have a preorder to go cancel...
I'm still waiting for Titanfall's answer.

Ah thanks for the updates.

As true as that is, it's no different than current gen launch, and the one before that. Sessler's been in the industry for so long, he should know that he doesn't work for G4TV anymore to get the freebies.
But thats a different topic!

The comments on that link....Wow
Some 360 Devs sure hate NeoGAF.

Mortimer, stop drinking. It's the rabbit hole you don't want to go down. None of this stuff is that serious. You've just come off of a personal tragedy, chill out dude. Don't do anything that mentally burdens you in any way. Do it only if you enjoy it and want to do it.
I say you and your wife just take a nice cheap vacation somewhere. After everything that's happened the last few months, it can't hurt.

That's what the OP is for.
Nintendo took a real hit with the OS being a piece of shit until recently. Microsoft main business is making and developing an Operating System. There's no reason why the XBox One shouldn't work as intended.
Creating an OS is MS's day job. That they still are going to fuck it up is amazing.
This is a joke right? You can't have a custom backgrounds. The idea behind this is to charge you.
If some random game journo in the know said in a podcast or forum, "Hey, MS having some issues with party chat, they're working on it, party may be wonky for a few months" this would have been non news. I've been on GAF for a while and I trust you as a source...but the "OMG I got a megaton, stay tuned!!!" intro was a bit much, no? You must have known this revelation, if it comes to fruition, is only important to the Gaf chapter of the Sonybot sharktank. Either way, I appreciate you breaking the story, and I hope you don't get any personal blowback.
Funny, this causes a huge Gif worthy meltdown for people who never had any intention of getting a X1, only mildly dissapointing to most* people looking forward to MS's console. I wonder how Sony sold a single unit since being overpriced with inferior multiplat ports and gimped online is such a horrendous position to be in. My how the tables have turned...
*Quite sure party chat is a system seller for some.
Okay this cracked me up. Well done.
