Also I do want to point out that the X1 being sold cheaper then the X360 was at launch. And in my mind the X1 is more expensive because they are all being launched with the Kinect, which is an expensive device. They are kind of reversing themselves.

    Hopefully Sony and Microsoft both learned from the X360 and PS3's overheating and failure problems and fix them. Better consoles for everyone is just better.
    they launched at a 400 model and a 500 model while sony had a 500 model and a 600 model. aslo it launched only like 3 years after the original xbox where the PS3 was like 8 years after the PS2. now there both about 8 years from their last gen.

    That is actually incorrect. X360 launched 5 years after the Xbox, at 299 cheaper model and the 399 model. Sony was correct, however they launched their console 6 years after the PS2, Not 8. Throw in a kinect and you get a 499$ model, so Microsoft hasn't changed that launch price at all really. Will be interesting to see what happens to these consoles after launch, If either of them fail, or if they both work correctly.

    i like how you use kinect as a negative for the old price and for the new price lol. kinect didn't exist back then. the launch hardware is teh ahrdware. at this point kinect is part of the system and should be treated as such. tahts liek saying becuase teh hard drive is bigger it less money now. makes no sense.

    I did not use that as a negative for the old price, I used it for the new price if you would pay attention. If you add 100$ extra for a kinect onto the old launch price of the X360, what do you get? The X1 launch price. It isn't that hard to figure out if you pay attention. Kinect should NOT be apart of the system, it was a worthless gimmik that Microsoft is trying to use to lure in Nintendo's "gamer" market. It was never a part of Xbox and never will be, no matter how many times they try to force it down gamers throats. When the X1 doesn't sell well they WILL change the software and the policies and it will be a real console. That is Fact.

    Sigh... I don't understand why people need to fight about consoles. I grew up with pc, and had the Xbox, GameCube, and ps2 at one point, and enjoyed them all. Each had good points and bad, each had games exclusive to each system. But as with all, the difference between a fanboy and a gamer I think, is when you can see beyond an insane loyalty, and step back and see it for the facts. It would be great if everyone would stop all the arguing back and force and taxing google to death trying to validate a side. Now I'm all for having a preference, when it comes to the type of games each system has and what people want to play, but in the interest of the the latest consoles, it's not hard to see why the preference for performance, price, and options, makes the ps4 the winner, per say, overall.
    Xbox has cross game chat and you pay a yearly fee for better maintained servers, ps4 will offer that as well, and then threw in a ton of free content, and has services that don't require extra pay.
    Xbox requires the kinect whether you use it or not, ps4 does not require the move controller system.
    Xbox has to check in every 24 hours, otherwise you cannot even play offline single player games, which limits it for people in our armed forces and or over seas, or people who live somewhere in the boonies where sometimes the Internet goes out and all one has is the offline play, or if the servers go down and you can't log in.. The ps4 will not require a 24 hour check in and the system will function 24/7.
    The controller has been redesigned for the ps4 to have better signal connection and better response time, as well as changes to the physical sticks and triggers for better performance, being on par with any other controller out there.
    And lets not forget the odd thing where the kinect will record you like a creeper spycam..

    There are more pros and cons, and exclusive contents for each, plus how each decided to handle used games, and game sharing selling or lending, but as I said based on facts, all loyalties aside, the ps4 is just better bang for your buck. I really don't see one outstanding feature that the Xbox will have the the ps4 won't have as well, or have it better..

    In the end I feel bad for the Xbox gamers, I mean if I was all about them and they did me like this I would be so pissed with them. I just don't get what they are thinking, other then seeing dollars and being short some brain cells, and worrying about making an entertainment station for the masses, instead of a sweet gaming system for their true fans the gamers. I wish they thought more highly of their hardcore gamers, and for that, loyal supporters of Xbox, as a gamer, I am truly sorry.

    Where did you find that pic?! I totally wear that outfit when I'm gaming! And it's nice too cause the latex was chlorinated, which makes it shiny without products AND makes the latex hypoallergenic so that most who have latex allergies can actually wear it! XD. Cept those ****** shields kinda suck, those hard plastic buttons have no give to them..
