An informed opinion about entertainment has no more value than an uniformed opinion about entertainment because (and here's the really tricky part so hang on!) what people find entertaining is also subjective and cannot be quantified across a board.

It really isn't all that complex of an idea: subjectivity simply…

There was an article here (and for the fucking love of baby jebus I cannot find the damned thing) where it was clearly spelled out that people were misunderstanding.

Not that it matters anymore since it probably won't come to pass now.

Opinion=/= fact. Never has and never will.

We can go round and round about this, waving around which three degrees we hold, but the fact remains is there is no scientific data backing up opinion is factual. If there was, I'm sure you'd be happy to provide it.

And YOU get a tax bill! And YOU get a tax bill!

I'd be willing to be that they will have a monthly pay feature available, live Live does, allowing you to just pay a couple bucks if you want to do anything that requires PS +. That doesn't take the sting out of it, granted, but it's at least a little better than paying for a LOT of something you probably won't use.

I'd say that the changes at least gave Microsoft a fighting chance at taking the half of gamers in the U.S. that Sony doesn't take.

Here's the thing: what makes games "better" are called "opinions" and cannot be verifiably decided.

Meaning, it is not a fact, but an opinion.

And Metacritic? Seriously? That's like taking movie advice from Rotten Tomatoes.

Edit: let me be clear here. I LOVE my 360. I have literally a hundred games for the damned…

Ugh. I really do not like the PS style controllers. I'm going to miss the 360 controller.

I'm hopeful that someone will make a 3rd party 360 style controller for the PS4.

"Microsoft has the significantly better games library right now"

Factually untrue.

Your opinion, however, may lean this way.

Ryse of the QTE.

Looked SWEET. Too much sarcasm? Sometimes I can't tell.

I think you're right, though: it may have been a 360 Kinect title.

"A few whiners"? So, the LITERAL millions of people who opted out of Microsoft's policies in favor of the PS4 are a "few whiners"? Seems to me that millions of people kiiiiiiiiind of spoke.

The primary thing keeping me away from the X1 is the Sauron Kinect. I don't care that it can be altered: it is always on when your X1 in on. No thanks.

True, it doesn't matter at this point. I've been looking for a link to my clarification AND looking for one saying what you've been saying.

I can't find shit on Kotaku. The search system needs updated.

I doubt that would happen. The folks who tend to make threats online are the ones that tend to talk big.

"The initially proposed plan (the exact wording of it) implied you could play a game and share with one other person at a time."

Then good news! You don't have to be upset about losing this feature because that actually wasn't the way it was going to be. It was poorly worded and people got that impression,…

You misread it. They clarified the statement because a LOT of people misread it.

Um, your brother could not play your copy of the game if you were playing it at the same time, if that is what you were trying to say.

Not me. The Kinect is my biggest sticking point: I do not like having my console do things without my consent, which includes being on.

Funny. I don't have a smartphone so I don't need worry about this.

Much like how I won't have an always on Kinect in my house. And let's not try to say "but you can disable it!" No, you can't: you can simply make it not respond.

My responses to you were clarifications on a question you asked. I made ZERO statements on morals, implicit or explicit.

Sorry if you read that in any way other than what I had written.

I simply answered the question "What's the difference between public spaces and not?"
