Connections have nothing to do with drivers or OS.

 



Edit: Xbox 360 controllers will not work with the X1, PS3 controllers will not work with the PS4. Don't understand why this is a complex issue considering systems since the beginning of console creation have been doing the same thing.


ps3 controllers won't work on the ps4? Damn.  

 



I remember Ps1 controller worked on the ps2.







Anyway I think they said the Move controller for the ps3 will still work with the new ps4 eye.

Copy paste from an article:




Yoshida statement:




"No, [the PlayStation 4] doesn’t support DualShock 3 but it does support PS Move.”




He was asked  if other accessories such as  Bluetooth-supported PS3 peripherals and Sony wireless headset. He responded:




"I don’t think we’re addressing additional peripheral support at this time.”




Then he he made it clear : "That doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t work.”

What are the REAL differences then.  Please educate me smarty pants.  $100 difference?  The slightest difference in Specs?  What else?

If you think this has a happy ending then you haven't been paying attention.

You can find the real differences on your own. They have been posted in threads all over ARFCOM.

Here is another big difference.

http://www.neogaf.net/forum/showthread.php?t=588771

1st post nails it.

Bought an accessory for the Xbox 360, it continues to work on the Xbox 360... Fail to see the issue.  

I don't get pissed if I buy a seat cover for a 2010 vehicle that doesn't fit the new 2013 model.

How many phone chargers and cases have you bought that don't work for your new phone?


Exactly.  People are bitching just to bitch now.  It's fucking pathetic.  They're whiney little school girls.  The two systems are not that far apart.

Actually the connections do have something to do with drivers and the OS. The link posted before about the racing wheel not working stated that the Xbox One doesn't support HID through usb. Since HID is written into the USB specification MS would have to refuse to read the HID info. So going forward if a system has USB ports I do expect my USB devices to work. That is the whole point of USB.



Personally, I looked to confirm the information at the link (Xbox One won't support HID) and couldn't find any supporting information. So I don't believe the information to be

correct.



The PS3 controllers are Bluetooth and will work on the PS4 since those controllers are connected by Bluetooth also. I really wish MS would have gone with Bluetooth also.



What does seem to have changed is the wireless protocol that the new Xbox will use and that is what breaks backwards compatibility with old accessories. Since they improved the bandwidth of the spec it's ok with me that older accessories don't work.



PS. I just pre-ordered my Xbox One.

I will prob buy xbox.

I hate sony's controllers.
I take cash to store and buy games new.
I dont trade games in or whatever.
I have xbox next to my router now so its already always hooked up.
I havent played a game while offline since original Halo.
Im not sure I care so much about kinect always being on or not.
So their new changes really dont make a difference to me personally.

The "main" reason I will prob buy xbox is that all the folks I enjoying playing with online will also buy the xbox. So Im not a MS fanboy as much as like gaming with the group of folks I know. IF they all switched or half of them switched to Sony I might go that route. The 100 price difference really doesnt concern me very much.

I just dont care enough about MS to like or hate them. I feel the same way about Sony. Truth is they will both have the games I enjoy playing the most. My decision will prob be made for me from the groups of folks I game with...its that simple for me.


FYI, Sony and Xbox have the exact same used game policy now.  I know it means nothing to you but there isn't a difference.  Sony is being called out on it now.


Research more.

Sony prohibits online passes on the new system.

You can sell any disk based game to anyone you want on the ps4.

It is an option @ launch on ps4.

You don't have to trade in your games at participating retailers.

You can rent games.


The sony system is the polar opposite of microsofts.
