There’s no other way to say it, Sony just drop kicked MS into next week. That’s with MS having a good show earlier today. They showed a lot of games that I’d like to play and that’s a good thing. But there was complete silence about anything else. The fears that gamers have about XBONE DRM are still high and mighty.

Sony shows it’s games and then says, we have none of that DRM that our competition has and the system is $100 less. That’s insane. I don’t know how MS spins this. Each guy has a few exclusives so that’s kind of a wash really. But the draw to everything else Sony just dropped can’t be understated. They’ve learned from the PS3 launch, they are completely in the good graces of gamers. I really, really, don’t know how MS can combat this. There has to be people in MS HQ sweating bullets. Billions of dollars are on the line here and it looks like Sony just stole a huge portion of xbox fans. Nintendo can just be Nintendo and wiggle their toes in 2nd place
happily. I’m legitimately shocked. The PS4 is pretty ugly though. I think I just want a XBONE controller for my PC.

The only thing MS can do is scrap their DRM plans. Say, “we were just thinking about this stuff, we didn’t really lock it in…” Tomorrow should be interesting. I’m sure MS will say the price is more for the One because of Kinect, which is understandable for the hardware. But the rest? Nope.
