I'm constantly told how it is shit and how the PS4 is better, yet the Xbox One has games and the PS4 has nothing until Infamous. I think Kinect is great, I cannot wait for it to be used more, I love using Xbox fitness with it, I think Rivals pre season controls really well and could be fun when drunk with mates. It has Killer Instinct for fighting fans, Dead rising 3 for action adventure fans, Titanfall for online FPS fans, Forza 5 for racing fans and even has Kinect sports and Zoo Tycoon and other stuff for kids. My G/F and I use Xbox Fitness, now they're getting more Insanity workouts it has become good on its promise and I retract what I said at the start when it only had one workout.

I think it looks beautiful, personally I like it better than the PS4...
I think Forza 5 has the best sim style handling of any sim racer out there on consoles, yes I have GT6 on my PS3 and it comes nowhere near as close as Forza 5. I race a lot of sim racers on PC, Assetto Corsa, iracing and stuff like that, while it isn't quite there yet, it is VERY close and worthy of being called a sim style racing game. Just annoying you have to buy a new wheel but I sold my T500 and got the TX which is basically the same thing if you have custom pedals.
I think the UI is coming along nicely, I like the Kinect stuff of navigating, I just wish'd there was more of it, like not being able to navigate a DVD is annoying. Yes it lacks content right now, it is a big gripe, but that is natural for a new platform, though I kinda wish'd they could have carried stuff over from the 360, it isn't the same architecture, so...
I like the controller, I like trigger rumble, I like the new feel with no screws, I like the new analogue sticks, it looks so premium, I like how it'll be a standard PC controller like the 360. I even like the removable battery feature, it means I can put new ones in and not have to charge it. Also though my PS3 controller didn't hold it's charge after a few years, I had to buy a new one, with the Xbox One, I can just buy new batteries or get a new play and charge kit.
In fact my only real gripe with the system is having to pay for Xbox Live for simply functionality like using Netflix, which should be free as it is everywhere else. I also hope external storage will bring increased bitrates to the GameDVR as it'll take the bandwidth away from the internal HDD.
The Box it comes in is great as well, it feels very premium and well packed, the PS4 box feels very cheap and light and makes it feel more of a toy. I'm going to buy a PS4, I own all consoles but it, I just want games for it first...
It is a great console and I'm sick of the constant hate.
