    I'm a 360 guy, but I ain't touching Xbox One as it is right now.

    Seriously.. PS4 is:
    -Cheaper
    -Stronger/better performance
    -Free to play multiplayer
    -Doesn't require 24 a hour internet to play even singleplayer
    -Doesn't spy on you and check in with your xbox and data like another sleeperagent

    Why WOULD I buy Xbox exactly? I've never been a Halo type of guy.. But with PS4 I can play the Uncharted series, God of War, Demon Souls and Metal Gear solid games.

      If you purchase a book and finish reading it what do you do with it? You donate it to a library or give it to a friend so that they can enjoy it.
      When you finish a video game you do a similar thing. You take it to Gamestop or pass it on to a buddy for some chump change.
      We the consumer are getting robbed if we let DRM take hold.

        Actually the one piece of negative news is that it will no longer be free to play multiplayer games. You can still access the internet, use Netflix etc for free, but a PS+ subscription will be required to play games online. THe plus side is that PS+ offers tons of discounts and free games on a regular basis. It will cost about the same as xbox live, about $50.

          Well, I'm not what I'd identify as a "hardcore (insert console brand here) fan", because brand loyalty is exceedingly ******ed when applied to a spectrum as diverse and rewarding as gaming is. As a gamer, I like options. Limiting your loyalty to one console is something that only pimplefaced fanboys with no life outside of their gaming system do.

          However, I won't be purchasing Microsoft's new console. Not this year, not next year, not 10 years from now. I was happy to support them when they first got into the 'console wars' (Christ that's a ******ed phrase) because doing so meant more competition and more competition meant better products, and I did so again this generation, but as of next generation I'm withdrawing my support.

          I can't support any product that doesn't support my rights as a consumer to do whatever the **** I want with said product.

            Here's hoping that Sony finally gets their **** together in the online gaming front next generation. Playstation network has been insufferable since the PS2. I never really realized how much it ****** until I started playing on XBL more frequently.

              Well you get what you pay for and now that PS plus will charge money they should have the funds to have decent servers.

                I'm not a die hard Xbox fan, I just have it cause all my friends do. But we are all moving to Sony now.

                New Xbox is a joke. My only complaint about the ps4 is the small controller but I'm sure I'll get over. If not, I'm sure there will be 3rd party controllers for sale.

                  I certainly hope so. I never had any problem whatsoever with shelling out 50 bucks a year for a service as steady and reliable as XBL is/was.

                    I was thinking about it today and actually even tho i will help to the bombing of Xbone next gen downfall take my business with me to Sony and all the people i know, and people i can convert potentially thousands in Neogaff etc that doesn't mean im bitter i just want change in the policies.

                    I am very happy about is that xbox360 could have as long as 4 more years of lifespan so i wont get throat fkd by Xbone crappy policies in the next gen and still get the games i love in the 360 While Playing the sick new IP's SOny showed off in the best next gen graphics when i really think about it, it turned out for the best since i couldn't give 2 ****s about a voice tv remote and a Kinnect stalker. I will keep hoping Microsoft change their minds and since i already pre ordered a PS4 guess ill have an Xbone also if they right the ship.
