"People stating Microsoft are going to lose this generation are severely deluded when it comes to their reasoning. Regardless of what song and dance either company put on they have both pretty much made the same console. Similar features, specs and Im willing to bet similar pricing and games. If there is any real winner this generation, which there probably wont be, it wont be apparent until at least a year after launch."

"Im sure Microsoft have done their numbers and realised that these limitations wont matter to their largest install base." That;s probably why I wont be buying X1.

I expect PS4 to be $400. And yes, I think Sony made all the better decisions with the hardware (Except for the controller. 360 controller was already awesome and that new one looks stunning). So to me PS4 looks like the better console. But if MS sells Xbox One for $300 that could be a game changer. Don't know for sure what either of these machines will cost yet but price will be important and that's one area where MS could still give Sony trouble.

Actually I think Microsoft might sell it even cheaper.

That article is by a totally bias person for xbox. They say Sony will likely end up making the same mistakes. Are you kidding me?! There's no indication Sony will do the same crap MS is doing.:roll:

Why do xfans all believe Sony has to do the same crap MS does?!! They are so f'd up in their thinking that every time MS does something, they think Sony has to do it too. Why do they believe MS has that kind of control? Different companies do different things. Wake up and smell the roses xfans. Wake the F up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sony spent their reveal conference talking about how they wanted the Playstation 4 to be easy to develop for, showed off numerous games, including a new IP, gameplay demos of a few of the games, and showed off the multimedia features but didn't spend too much time on it. Microsoft did exactly opposite, so I have to agree with your statement as of right now.

You can always tell who is a chomping at the bit, frothing at the mouth, and completely beyond hope XBox fangirl.  The surest sign is that when MS does something kinda messed up, their first reaction starts with "But Sony does..".  I wonder if they realize no one cares about their mortal feud with Sony but themselves?  As if these lame excuses actually are going to sell an XBox One to a single soul.

 

Frankly, if you are an XBox One fan, you should have Lemming status taken away from you because you don't even deserve that.  XBox fans used to be about games.  We could at least give them that much credit.  One fans would literally put on a cheerleader outfit and let Balmer defecate on them on Youtube and it wouldn't phaze them.  They just don't live in a reality that is comprehendable.

From what I got from the "article" (which was just a reader op-ed) is that he anticipates the consoles to be more the same than they are different and that since he had been an Xbox fan over the past two generations, he will then purchase the console he is more comfortable and familiar with.

 

I anticipate this will be the buying strategy for most when it comes to which console they purchase within the first few years of their respective lifecylcles. I do also believe, though, that the PS4 has the developer backing and hardware advantage that will make the console be able to have a greater margin of graphical improvement over the years. As the margin grows over the next generation, I anticipate the PS4 to have a longer shelf life when it comes to exclusive games. I acutally see the there being a Xbox/PS2 type graphical gap that will make even multiplatform games appear to look "that" much better on the PS4 based on the published hardware specs.

My issues with the console or DVR or whatever you wanna call it aside, my main question is how is this supposed to be attractive to anyone outside of the US and possibly the UK? A lot of the features seem directly targetted to the US market, so I can understand it being big there...but how about the rest of the world? I know many people have this idea that the US market is all that matters and is all that MS needs, but I think thats a very short sighted way to look at things. MS will lose some serious developer support, cause I can see the Halo's and Gears selling well with the intended audience, but everything else? not so much. Oh well, it will be interesting to see what happens.

Well all rumors were basically spot on,and there is another still waiting to be confirm or deny...

$500 dollar price tag..

I don't think MS will sell the xbox one for $300,that is basically what a 360 permium cost now,i don' see a less than $399 price tag on it,it may not have GDDR5 or the same GPU as the PS4,but it has Kinect included which does rise the price of the console.

Even though I do not play these lame fanboy wars I find it odd that Cows are the ones searching every crack in the web for XB1 news. Even the disappointed Lems are not going out of their way and have took a wait and see approach or moved on. You would think Cows would not be so desperate but I guess having to compensate on small things for so long they are just used to it.

And more than likely it will come back to bite Cows in their ass. It usually does. Complete Sheens.

The problem is Lems are not annoying. Cows are. I have proven time and time again to the point that Kuraimen cried to the mods that my PS3 collection is better than most Cows (Who ironically have very little exclusives.) Cows prove themselves to be fake and clueless on a daily basis. I have no problems saying Microsoft is screwing up big time right now, but it bugs Cows more than anyone. Why? Because their Playstation loyalty is the only thing they apparently have going for them in their lives. It is actually a little disturbing. It is also pretty damn funny.

:lol: Do you even hear yourself? Your getting so worked up over this goddamn Internet forum that you take Kuraimen seriously? You probably also think Heil is to be taken seriously, don't you? "Lems aren't annoying, cows are", fvck, get ahold of yourself little man. Fact of the matter is, a lot of them aren't to be taken seriously. They do it to piss off people like you who are far too personal about this thing. :lol: When all you got to retort me was the fact I wrote a blog in my free time (writing happens to be something I enjoy outside of games, would you look at that. It's also an issue that extends far beyond the Playstation brand), and make wild assumptions about my own life, as well as others based off being Playstation fans, that tells me you need to unrustle some jimmies, bro.
