Xbox One might not provide support for previous Xbox 360 titles

Microsoft has stated that the 'Xbox One'  will not be backwards compatiable, meaning it won't support previous Xbox 360 titles. 

This is not a problem for those who plan to pickup the Xbox One this year but also the Playstation 4 which is based on a different chipset meaning they might not support Playstation 3 titles.

It seems Microsoft has no intention of making the new 'Xbox One' backwards compatiable to support games from the previous console. Some gamers are outraged at this and some have started petitions to try to get Microsoft to make the Xbox One backwards compatiable like this one on Change.org. 738 supporters are already supporting this initiative.

Microsoft has not commented yet on this petition. I'll keep you guys posted.

PlayStation 4 Release Date Announced

PlayStation 4 according to Sony will be released on Holiday 2013.

Here is  pictures of the PlayStation 4 controller that was somewhat revealed to us on the live stream the other day:


* Playstation 4 controller



*Playstation 4 Dashboard

Looks pretty cool. Assuming "Move" is like Kinect like Sony's competitors respective names for it "Kinect" (Microsoft; Xbox 360) and "Wii" (Nintendo- who revolutionized it first out of the trio)
It's a step in the right direction for the Next Generation of Gaming.

And Look! An Xbox-Like Dashboard. I've played Playstation 3 before and was not a fan of the dashboard. This is a great step for Sony to try and integrate things like Facebook, YouTube, Netflix, etc. as it's main competitor Microsoft has done with the Xbox.

Honestly, I'm psyched to see what Microsoft is going to reveal later this year or at E3.
If Playstation 4 is at a great price (not $500 like the Playstation 3) I might honestly have a hard time choosing between the Xbox 720 and the Playstation 4. #FirstWorldProblems Huh?
Both are going to look like they are going to be great systems for the next generation of gamers.
