Well, according to Mike Wang, during a podcast with PlayStation.Blog, a couple of developers won't even touch the Xbox One.

Quote:
I love the PS4! I‘m a convert. I wasn’t a huge fan of the PS3 controller, but DualShock 4 is amazing, it feels perfect. I love the changes that Sony has done! The machine itself is ridiculous, it’s so powerful, so much easier to develop for. In the office it’s unanimous; we have a couple people who don’t play anything else now, they won’t touch Xbox One. We love the PS4, it’s a great system.

Mike will probably get some unwanted feedback from this and the Sony fanboys will have a field day, but let's not forget who he was talking to... a site dedicated to the PlayStation. I wonder what he'd say if he was talking to Major Nelson?

I'm sure he'll chime in soon to clear the air.

UPDATE: Mike Wang has checked in (Post #47).

Yeah, just to be clear. I have nothing against XBOne. It's a great system. I was just trying to communicate that I like the PS4 much more than the PS3 (both in terms of development and the controller.) When I stated that I was a convert, it's because for the last 2 gens I've primarily been an Xbox gamer, but this gen I can see myself playing a lot of PS4.

The unanimous comment was NOT that the entire company or dev team favored PS4 over XB1, I was trying to say that everyone in the office agrees that the PS4 is a great system. That's all.

And yes, it's true that a couple people in the office are Sony fanboys and won't touch the Xbox 1... but it's also true that some people in the office are MS fanboys and won't touch the PS4.

Hope that clears some things up a bit.

UPDATE #2: (Post #134).

Quote:
Another thing I should add... just because I was praising Sony, that doesn't mean I don't also love what MS did with the Xbox One. The controller upgrades are really nice, especially the feel and function of the Impact triggers and analog sticks. A definite improvement over 360, which I also loved.

NBA 2K14 will look and play great on both systems... there's no "inferior" version. Just as all console wars, it will come down to the games, personal preferences, and what you're looking to get out of your console.

I wouldn't let anything I said in that interview sway you one way or the other... personally, I'm still on the fence as to which console to get first. But really, I don't think you can go wrong with either.

I don't understand this multiplat argument. The games release at the same time. Only difference on CG, was Microsoft paid for timed DLC exclusives on some games. EG - Xbox 360 got CoD DLC a month before PS3. I think the same happened on GTA IV?
 
# 84 USNAggie44 @ 11/05/13 06:39 PM
I used to have a ps2 until about 08, got the 360. Only reason I might get the zone is because most of my friends have Xbox.

I'm sure the exclusive content for the PS4 is positive feedback from the devs.

I'll take this with a grain of salt (I like the PS4 more mind you,) because would you say anything negative/not positive to the ps4 or even Xbone if it's a interview for a blog/site/etc representing mainly that device?

It's like saying app developers praising Android for an iPhone blog.

of course they gotta say that. its clear sony paid a significant chunk of money to have it look like the lead development console in all the commercials. they didnt even start adding that the game was also available on the xbox one in the screenshots until a week or so ago. plus it was for an interview with the playstation blog. its not like theyre gonna come out and say "i love the xbox one too!" in the podcast.

If anyone actually went to the source you would have heard it was an interview they had with him on a show floor. He wasn't a part of the podcast. He also doesn't say the opinion is "unanimous", that's inserted by the interviewer. So keep those PS4 fanboi arguments of Wang declaring PS4 victorious coming. Also keep those Xbone fanboi arguments of how Wang was paid to say that without looking at the source material.

Again: I wasn't even comparing the PS4 to Xbone. It was to the PS3. He's says so not only in this thread, but says so in the interview itself.

I totally agree with your comment. I must have Halo and Titanfall, and I have played through every Fable game. Sony needs some better game franchises that are console exclusives.

You Da Man Mike.

Im getting the PS4 and NBA 2K14 on the 15th.

Are we going to get some insights, or maybe some details of the difference between CG and NG?

Thanks and keep producing top notch products!

a laughable statement.

What you mentioned are FPS..That caters to majority of the american market. imo, those games are boring.

Infamous? Uncharted? TLOU? Those are not great franchises? are you kidding me? lol.

I'm a gamer, but I also have two small children and a wife that loves Kinect. Add on all the entertainment features and our choice was a no brainer. Forza is one of my favorite games outside of 2K and WWE and multiplayer Halo is always a must. I have nothing bad to say about the PS4, but to me it's like choosing a Benz or BMW. Whichever you prefer, no one should be able to clown you.

Wow if you actually believe the crap you just said...

so has mr wang (tee-hee-hee) clarified his comments yet??? or is this just 11 pages of mind numbing fan boy dribble
 
# 97 grodbetatted @ 11/05/13 08:14 PM
I play online a lot and kind of like 2k vs live XBOX HAS PROVEN THEMSELVES ONLINE THIS GEN WHERE PLAYSTATION has not and until they can prove their online experience is just as good I will buy XBOX ONE day one and PS4 at a later date. I'm getting both only so I can get the exclusives of PS4 but online play will be xbox only
 
# 98 F0rl3fclov3r @ 11/05/13 08:21 PM
The main reason I am leaning towards the Xbox One over the PS4 is because of the online servers. I have more trust in the online aspect of Xbox Live vs PS Plus

I never owned an xbox, but I don't get why people are having issues with ps3 online? The only issues I've dealed with either had to deal with p2p connected games or games that are known for bad online issues. I never had an issue with psn. Now its paid, I think it will be more stable.

If your a baseball fan at all, then Im not sure how you cannot have a PS console. Its why I switched in 09 to the PS3 was because I needed a baseball game.
Glad to hear that the PS4 is a great system and sounds like its a lot better than the Xbox1. I doubt I will be buying a PS4 anytime soon unfortunately do to finances, but when I do get the money that will be the system I buy.
