Today on Hard News, based on the first impression, XBox One may have betrayed Chad.

Darali: Question -- why didn't Microsoft just wait for E3 to announce the new console if they're going to wait 'till then anyway to announce its starting lineup?

Is it fair to wonder if Microsoft might've just pulled a Sega Saturn?
5/21/13 11:51pm
XaviortheSavior: In other news, Sony's stock went up by 10% after the reveal conference. That should tell you how successful this is going to be.
5/21/13 11:28pm
joeshadowman: This 24 hour thing leaves a bad taste in my mouth. As someone who was saying that MS wasn't going to do an always online DRM I was kind of right. Sadly, I was also kind of wrong. Sure you don't always have to be connected to the internet, but you still have to connected once every 24 hours. And how does that work exactly? Someone please explain it to me, because I really don't understand. Does it mean that you will have to pay a subscription fee every month just to play a game on it?

Edit: Also I have read somewhere that you don't have to pay a fee for used games. From what I understand that was just a mix up on the reporting.

armodillo17: Seriously. The Wii U is apparently confusing enough to people who don't follow this stuff. Xbox One might be even more so.

Preacher37: Plus, their games would have to go through controllers dictated by Micro/Sony. Not everyone wants a share button on their controller

OmegaSoldierX: 1. The poster looks photoshoped to me. But, we'll have to wait and see.

2. As Relius would say, "Now this. This is interesting..."

3. And that's why a vast majority of gamers think EA sucks crocodile nuts.
5/21/13 2:30am
mariodk: the last game EA made that was good was Simcity 4 and that was long time since

darkhyrulelord: I would like a hard copy. Also, the Best Buy tidbit sounds....interesting.
5/20/13 3:07pm
HeatBombastic: I want that hard copy.

Seriously, who doesn't?

ran76: I still have mine. I bring it out of storage whenever I start jonesing for Project Justice or Lodoss War
5/19/13 4:44pm
ScrewAttackSam: Not my point really, i got a Dreamcast day one and that shit was insane still one of my fav consoles ever, and damn they hooked you up, like a 50 foot telephone cable in the box so i can play PSO thank you sega! i loved the DC so much.
5/18/13 10:20pm

5/17/13 5:50pm
TheTurbanMan1389: This...is a good idea. Nicely played Nintendo.
5/17/13 5:43pm
5/17/13 5:21pm
TheEnglishman: That sounds neat, except that I live in the wrong country. It would be a minor annoyance, until I realise that they might let people play the new Ace Attorney. Then I feel depressed.

Today on Hard News, EA's new MOBA "Dawngate" and closing their Online Pass system, and Nintendo dooms Let's Play channels.

5/19/13 8:58pm
paindrain: Nice diatribe there, I agree, I don't watch Video Games Awesome or ZionMainframeGaming for the game itself, its more the people I find interesting and amusing, Though I have to disagree a bit, I do intentionally watch Video Games Awesome Minecraft episodes, because their base of crafters are amazing, and make worlds I have seen no where else, from what Ive seen Yogscast could only hope to have a server with as much creativity
5/19/13 8:44pm
paindrain: Sorry, if you are a gamer that actually games, fine, i get your point, but i don't game much, I am more a follower of the gaming industry and the nostalgia surrounding it and my childhood. Trust me when I say, they are losing nothing on me, only gained on hardware purchases, not being a huge gamer, it put me in more debt than its worth, but that was my dumb decisions.

Let's not accredit any blame with what is wrong in the industry with the decisions of industry itself though, that might be a little too logical. Instead piracy speculation should be the fall guy...

paindrain: I didn't encourage others to do what I do, don't get that twisted, and I didn't compare Nintendo to PS4 or Nextbox, because I'm purely a nintendo fanboy with rage, but if console wars decide how you judge others, fine, idc...

Let's see how much money it takes to usurp League of Legends grip on us all...
5/17/13 2:14pm
Flapperdoodle: Be careful MOBA fans... remember, this is EA we're talkin' here. I'd keep my distance.
5/17/13 10:58am
Branch: I'll just stick to League
5/16/13 7:27pm
The Void: hmmm, F2P quality game with large playerbase vs B2P, or knowing EA P2P, that is likely glitchy, unbalanced and half-arsed attempted at fleecing consumers' wallets.
5/16/13 5:37pm
caboose_-1: 1) I suck at MOBAs; 2) I still don't know what a MOBA is or how it's different from Warcraft or anything like that; 3) I hope no one buys this so that EA gets the message that we hate them and don't want to contribute more money to them. Only downside is that it's unfair to the devs.
5/16/13 5:33pm
Kaepora22: I'll stick to my league and enjoy it. I'm not up to playing another Moba.

Today on Hard News, Gran Turismo 6 coming to the PS3, Brosie the Riveter, and Pac-Man returns.
5/16/13 9:16am
Jasper Kazai: If that poster was just in MY office, and then they put that second one up in MY office, I'd be kind of pissed. Now, in a more public area, sure.
5/16/13 8:44am
werdman24: That Pac Man game looks like a breath of fresh air for the franchise.
5/16/13 7:45am
newdori1: the next time he closes hard news he should say "im sam, and that was news slender." and then he gets attacked by slenderman

Anti_Hipster: heterosexuality is demonized.

If a gay man had only the picture on the right hanging up, then it would be equality in their mind and you'd never hear of this story.

This is a poster hanging up in his office. Feminists aren't even okay with that.

Here's the deal with feminism. Women and feminists can't yell up and down about how strong they are and then get offended at every slight drop of the hat. That's not strong. It's childish.

Here's the deal, I could post everything that feminists lie about, whether it comes to falsified statistics, anything to do with patriarchy, etc. I really could sit here and type out, and explain why feminism is one of the worst and most destructive groups in many years, but there's a woman on youtube who explains it much better. YES. An actual woman who is an anti-feminist. See feminism isn't automatically synonymous with women and their rights. Her name is GirlWritesWhat on youtube. She's so intelligent and well spoken that she has been officially invited to be on Joe Rogan's podcast. Here is her speaking at a Libertarian convention. The video here is over an hour long, but her videos are usually much shorter.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LkYDpQQVJ0

She's a good starting point, and if her points that aren't regurgitated from a Marxist perspective are interesting to you, then there are plenty of more youtubers who also have their two cents to add.

Anti_Hipster: I totally agree with you. Unfortunately, I believe that we're already that type of society. We're in third wave feminism. Fourth Wave feminism, which is what Sweden is nearly at, hopes to achieve all of the "privilege" that feminists say that white males have had. The hypocrisy is astounding. They say how horrible "privilege" is, and then make their goal to gain that very thing. If Fourth Wave feminism is as successful in America as first, second and third wave, then it's going to be a scary place here, or the Western world in general.

To further illustrate the point that we are already in the society you speak of, there was a quote that I like.

"To find out who's in charge, just find who you're not allowed to criticize".

Feminists and women definitely fit this bill. If you criticize feminism, you run risk of being called a "misogynist" or a "bigot".

spinner981: I try to get the people who are offended by such a thing to think about why they are offended by it. It comes down to their personal opinion and that is it, and their personal opinion isn't what makes something sexist. They need to understand that the reasons for their own complaining are pointless and arbitrary. People that see the world through their own made up ideals need to be told this non-stop or else we run the risk of becoming a society where personal feelings matter way to much and entitlement runs amok.

Molmoran: I think they should have given him a short tight shirt with a bit of under-pecs showing.
Everyone would like a slice of that pie.

ninjaeris13: Slow clap ladies, slow clap.
5/16/13 6:19am
RealAlphaMail: Whenever I think of sexism I always think of double standards. Would I be insulted if the sexes were reversed? If yes then it could be considered sexist, but if my female boss had the male picture on her wall I wouldn't care in the slightest (aside from the hypocrisy, but that's beside the point). I'm also curious how the female employees would have felt if the poster had been the male version, I doubt they would have thought it sexist either. At the end of the day it's all about double standards, how can we have true equality with that attitude. That being said if it was just meant as a harmless joke and not a stab at sexism then it was pretty good (though if guys had done it we would have probably heard an uproar from the gay community).

Not sure how this plays into the PS4 launch, but what evs...
5/17/13 8:53am
Fond3ll: Let me guess... It will be exactly the same crap as the first game, just with better graphics. Hooray... -_-
5/16/13 3:52am
Mcgunn: I honestly think this is good timing. The PS3 is going to continue to be an amazingly popular console for a long time to come. Let GT 7 wait for the powers of the PS4 to get unlocked by others. And now it won't be competition for that other driving Sim for PS4 that the developer was creaming his pants over.
5/16/13 1:00am
Dcmac: It was obvious it was heading for the PS3. Every system has had two instalments of Gran Turismo.
5/16/13 12:01am
Metroidvania98: This was announced ages ago. I thought everyone knew that GT6 was coming to the PS3 already.
5/15/13 5:00pm
yggdra324: It will be delayed, so Gran Turismo 6 will release 2 or 3 years after the PS4 is out on the market?
