Stuff Malaysia - August 2013

Round one of the next-gen gaming showdown may have not begun, but there’s a clear favourite after the weigh-in. Following plenty of posturing and badmouthing at the E3 tradeshow in LA, the internet has decided that the PS4 (1) was the hero and the Xbox One (2) the heel. But is it as simple as price disparity and evasiveness, or are our expectations to blame? We bare-out our unbiased musings on the respective pros and cones of these mega consoles are laid down on p46 where we also introduce the crazy notion that Steam is going to ‘pwn’ both of them at the same time.

Stuff has a unique understanding of the desires of the 21st century man, the cognoscenti, urban warriors and early adopters: to buy, to play, to share. And we know how to communicate those passions, with a playful tone devoid of typical media cynicism. That’s why we’re the world’s best-selling gadget magazine.
