Brand loyalties are indoctrinated to us since birth. Especially considering we are "sports fans".

As for product loyalty, I grew out of that long ago. Now I go for the best bang for the buck.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

So, since MSFT showed the X1, that means it was a success? Sony didn't show the PS4 so we say it wasn't a good reveal. Since "how" the console looks means so much. I'm more concerned about games, developers, and knowing that gaming is the sole focus, not television. Sony showed three times as much as MSFT did, and they showed off extras that EVERYONE HAS...Facebook. At this point, E3 doesn't even matter to me. Most of the people I know have made up their minds. Everyone I know is done with MSFT's bs.

Where did anyone even imply that.. at all about anything being a "success"?

I don't think either can be called a success until after E3 and we have both systems full tilt gaming. I hope both are a success (unlike some people) as the last thing we need is another 1 choice option in the gaming world.

Simply said that neither was all about games and both featured items outside the normal gaming mode.

Same, this generation was tough. I feel like if you only owned one system, you lost out on a lot. So I've always had both. I only want one this time around.

Not everyone! I'm getting the X1 and PS4, both at launch. I'm just excited for new toys. I don't get how people are getting all worked up about what other people are doing, but I like Samsung tv's and apple products. So I may not be seeing what everyone else is seeing. I'm just seeing fanboys on both sides arguing.

And that's the key... I tilt back and forth a lot these days as to which system I want at the start but I can tell you if one is a nice difference from the other price wise it probably wins the launch purchase by default.

My wife would kill me if I grabbed both at launch...
Not saying it isn't doable.. just saying my life would be in danger more than likely.

Edit: and now of course you have me thinking of ways to swing it...

Damn you...

That's where you can cross me off that list. I have been very neutral this generation, switching between both before finally just staying with my 360 for the most part. I hardly ever play my PS3 anymore besides the occasional MLB game or when The Last of Us comes out. Mike, I could've said you would buy both, I know your spending habits lol

.........and me as well.....

"Well, I figured instead of paying 16$ a month for a DVR, that this would end up paying off in the long run. It was only 400$. That's like two and a half years and then we're makin' money!"

Do it. Do iiiiiitttt! Blame me. Just think how happy you will be to have both.

And don't listen to Authentic, he works at Best Buy, no matter what he says...HE WILL HAVE BOTH.

I need to dump my 360 towards the new systems but simply don't know when. I'll have that month or so without a system that I'm sure I can survive but wouldn't bet on it.

We have a second one that's my daughters I could play on if absolutely necessary I guess...

As soon as they start taking reserves I'll just start popping 20.00 a week or so into each one...

See, think outside the box.

Authentic, dude why have you not been playing TW14 in our country club?

Authentic, are you not even a little intrigued with what they presented on the X1?
