Not sure what I was expecting but feel considerably underwhelmed. And they've changed the controller  |

The whole thing was "meh"
Microsoft are pretty much saying that the future of gaming is streaming TV, talking to a sensor and having a box that looks like it can play Betamax's
From having a read around.. There's no backwards compatibility, if you want to play your old games you've got to pay a fee, the TV streaming requires a digital tuner (why would you even buy a XBox when you've got Sky/Virgin Media + TV for that?) and if the internet is down due to something you can't control, such as bad weather, then guess what? You're not gaming today as it needs to be connected this Microsoft Cloud 24/7 where all your games are saved
Its only saving grace was getting exclusive rights to FIFA Ultimate Team but I don't play that because I think it's dogshit
I want a games console, not a glorified media centre and that's why I'll be investing in a PS4

PS4 wins.
It's centred around the American market, fee's to play second hand games, Kinnect is always online and they've got fuck all new IP's.
Fail.

It was such a pisser when a horrible little fanboy on Facebook declared "RIP Playstation"..
The same fanboy who declared in the 2011/12 season on the final day.. "This is amazing, my United are gonna win the title". Then Citeh won it and he declared "Oh well, I'm not bothered, it's only football"

If Microsoft think I'm going to pay them a fee to play a game I've borrowed off a mate or bought second hand, they can shove their shiny new console up their wrinkly old rectums.
Sony have won this generation already. Microsoft have gifted it to them.

If the weather is terrible which knocks the internet out, guess what? You aren't fucking playing games on the XBox One thanks to the "always on" connection

My mate has pre-ordered it today!
Without knowing what the PS4 will offer, without knowing an actual release date and without knowing the price.
Helmet.

What the hell, just found out about the "always on camera".
Forget that! I know it's only on when the Xbox is, but there's absolutely zero chance I'd want something like that around.
No backwards compatibility, internet access needed to play, fees to play preowned titles and an always on camera? Probably set to be the most disappointing console ever. I hope it's an absolute disaster for Microsoft and they have to rethink everything.
I've had a PS3 and a 360, so I'm not a fanboy of either, but I really think the PS4 will have to be truly, truly awful to not massively outsell the One.

Microsoft had a huge opportunity to finish Sony off after the PS3 lost quite a number of gamers to the XBox, even I was considering whether or not to buy the new XBox because most of my mates have an XBox but there's absolutely no chance I'll be buying one now
It'll be a pisser going round to your mates house and shouting "XBOX OFF" ;D

Microsoft can fuck off. I mean what a total fuck up! I honestly cannot think of one reason to by an XboxOne, which is an awful, awful name. Sony must be absolutely pissing themselves. They've won already.
I feel like this crazy Yank.

The more I hear the worse it gets, I had my heart set on buying both consoles again but i'm being really put off by the Xbox.

Sony have won this generation already. Microsoft have gifted it to them. Thus far I've been a 360 user but I'm with you on this one, plus the fact it's not backwards compatible so if I do spend my money it won't be on microsofts new blackmail box. |
