    Re: Xbox One

    Went into GS this morning, they had 6 XBones and 20 PS4s available for pre-order...was the 3rd to preorder the XBO.

    I understand the DRM concerns, the online conectivity stuff, and being $100 more expensive (in reality $40 more since you have to have PS+ now) but I'm not really phased by any of those so it's still XBO for me.

    With FFXV, MGS V, and Kingdom Hearts III (yes!) coming to the XBO it's not even close for on the games front...right now MS has Sony slaughtered on exclusives and the overall gaming library. The games I really want to play (TitanFall, Destiny, Quantum Break, The Division, KHIII, etc) I can all play on the XBO....there isn't one PS4 exclusive outside of The Order that I'm going to miss.

      You'll still be paying for Xbox Live, so the cost difference is still 100$.

        You have to have Live also so it's still 100.00 more.
        And dont really get how MS has slaughtered anything....

          Me either. I really wanted to hand MS my money, I really did.

          Have to weigh if the negatives (cost, DRM, always on, etc) outweigh the positives (tv/entertainment stuff).

          PS4 is pretty nice, especially 100 bucks cheaper.

          I hate that MS put me in this position, just have a fight going on in my head because I tend to favor Xbox, but it's been terrible so far.

            I get that point but I'm good on Live so I don't have to buy it...and as far as the gaming lineup goes, right now MS is head and shoulders above Sony...just my personal opinion.

              Same here. I went from a bit sad to more mad that MS decided to go the route they did.
              Everyone knows I was XBOX first. Heck I got rid of my PS3, but I have to look at the big picture and do what's right for me.
              Will re-evaluate after launch and see if MS changes their tune. If not I'll wait for a decent price drop.
              If MS slaughtered anything, it was my heart.

                I want the Xbox one, but if your a true gamer then you really are taking it up the tail pipe with what they are trying to pull.

                The money you will end up saving on the PS4 through its life not just the $100 is a huge amount.

                Xbox One no matter what you have to pay for

                Internet service
                Xbox Live
                Every game brand new $60+ no exceptions
                No re sale on said games
                To use that fancy tv stuff means you have to pay for those said channels

                The PS4 is the hands down winner and I'm a Xbox guy. Plug and Play with a Tv is all the PS4 would need if you had to get right down to it

                    If I'm Microsoft I would FLOOD THE MARKET on release day with this system. I would have so many available to offset the mess they have created. Just my .2

                    Yes I'm keeping my pre-order

                      Yeah it would be smart. Im such an impulse buyer I probabky couldn't resist one if I seen they were available in store at launch... lol
                      Hope I could though until a price drop.

                          If I'm MS I create a false shortage. If I see a ton of XBone boxes on the shelves as an uninformed person, I'm going to assume there's a reason a 500 dollar "gaming" console isn't selling.

                            This question goes for me as well, but why when you even admit the Xbox One is screwing up your still determined to keep your pre order?

                            It's like I'm almost buying just to say I bought it even though I know its not right. Lol

                              MS better switch their strategy because Sony just had in boxing terms, a 10-7 round.

                                I'm in the same boat. I've had both consoles since PS1/Xbox and I've always favoured MS.
                                But this time around, I'm not so sure. No BC, no rentals, $100 more, exclusives I don't care either way for...
                                PS4 is my choice right now.
