Before everyone completely freaks out, this is the (most likely) correct answer. If "Doritos" or "Mountain Dew," for example, show up in one of the ads, they have to pay for the licensing fees.
However, it is still BS because commercials pay for the licensing all the time. You throw them some money and put the copyrights in the fine print at the bottom.
Microsoft has plenty of money to use in this situation, and there is no way they wouldn't just pay the licensing fees and show the people what they want to see versus being super-secretive about it and making people wonder about the mystery.

What is this nonsense? FM is by far a bigger Sony insider
Thurway has both systems info
Matt is a Multiplat dev
Proelite has info on both systems
Liquid metal has mostly Sony info
Venderus Only seems to know sony stuff
The only Real Ms only Insider is CBOAT and he has leaked plenty postive microsoft info in the past.

That explains why we've been waiting on Albert and Larry to demo the UI for months. They can't obtain the rights to do so!

If's that's the issue they could just show with MS first party games, or even fake titles like Sony did. Most people won't care.
They want to see the UI in motion. How it works.
It's not the "looks" that people are concerned about, right?
Bravo.

Probably for the ads or movie tiles in there - other content that you might need clearance to put in what could be classed an advertisement/promo video.
Sony's gamescom UI was just games games games so they could just use their own content, nothing to negotiate with other parties. Games focus wins again

I don't know if that should be a general rule, but looking back... I got just as much-- and maybe even more-- enjoyment out of the Xbox 360 when I bought it in 2009 than I've received from buying any console at launch. I wound up getting a unit that wasn't as susceptible to failure as early X360s, there were more (and cheaper) games available, and there was a wider base of users.
3DS was the last time that I've ever buy hardware at launch. Weak software, launch drought, price drop before long. I overpaid and wound up getting little enjoyment out of it. It's better to wait things out and then jump in after the the coast is clear on the hardware side and the software lineup is more populated. Plus not having to pay an Early Adopter Tax is a bonus.
All that said, it's what I do. If folks simply have to have the new hardware at launch, that's their call. I wouldn't presume to tell others how to spend their money.
Amazing. It only needs Cerny's face on the dude for it to be truly complete.
I'll be stunned if any of the stuff that's happened over the last 72 hours is even acknowledged.
FFS, MS. If these rumours all come to fruition... I'd be lost for words. Especially on the software side. That "execs interfering" thing is really astounding.
No plans to get the Xbone but I'd have to be pretty damn stupid to be happy at MS leaving this arena.
Now I'm gonna imagine MS delaying (perhaps even to mid gen) and further try to imagine how that'd potentially shake things up.

You can't just pay the license fees preemptively without a contract prewritten. Shit has to go through their internal legal department, gets outsourced to an outside law firm, which then goes to the brands outside counsel, and then back to the brands internal legal department.
I would imagine snapping functions, to say movies and games raise licensing issues as well, especially since they would be used in a promotional capacity for MS.

Oh I agree. They really don't.
But when has MS not done a live demo of shit? What about when they showed off the new dashboards for 360? What about the Smartglass demo?
I'm supposed to believe that NOW of all times they forgot to prep a live demo of their UI with dummy content?
Then Penello straight up said 'this video is a representative, UI will work the same'
Is this freaking Killzone 2 UI Edition
XB1'S eSRAM is used differently that WiiU's eDRAM
For example, WiiU's eDRAM is one block of 32MB sitting in the GPU but accessible by the CPU.
eSRAM is broken down into 4 blocks of 8MB. And I believe the CPU doesn't really have access to it.
Why is everyone so concerned that I tabulate the score correctly in this console war? I know there is relatively more shit flooding from one corridor, I'm just saying in general there has been a lot of negative shit coming from everywhere. I'm not saying it's equal proportions or making any claim on that score, 'cause honestly I don't care who is winning on that score. We're all losing anyway

Yes indeed ... I just did not have the heart to call him out further on Twitter. They are in the frying pan already IMO.

I find it hard to believe that a month out there is no working Xbox One units out there for them to give a demo using.
It's a Japanese Tokusatsu show called Garo. This particular scene is from the second series. It's awesome.
pretty interesting info there

Dude come on. It's due to the dash being filled with ads. Now for them to not just remove them for a quick video, seems lazy.

They're giving the good Juniors a pretty bad rap, hope they know.
But yeah I've noticed that too. Telling.
Ok, dis got me good.

Very good.
OT:
I recall that there used to be a special "gear" that essential spins the wheels in opposing directions to make a Formula One car do that. I think that's still the case.
Having said that Botas pulled it off nicely.
I just wonder what will I see in the morning, when I log on to this board.
And that's the whole point...
Even if there are these issues, they could be easily avoided...
It's Valtteri Bottas during a practice session for the F1 Monaco GP, he got the breaking wrong for the right hander (the track actually goes round where the PS4 label has been shopped on) and ran into a runoff escape road, instead of stopping he just span the car out of the escape lane and carried on

Couldn't they just disable all of that gunk and put placeholder pictures and/or text, and state so in the video? It's like he's really trying to hide under a very, very small umbrella. Or fuck, just use first party stuff...

No, he's saying that stuff like TV shows can't be demoed without persmission. My answer to that is show something you do own. Like the Halo TV show they made last year.

Yeah, which, unless I'm misunderstanding something, they've had plenty of time to do over the past couple months. I certainly understand that they can't show it now because of the licensing issues, but they could have completely avoided this situation.
