With all the views, this will be back on TV next year.

This has been god awful this year, and I'm usually a Joel Mchale fan. His dry sense of humor has created some painfully awkward moments with the developers. Not to mention, the whole thing just feels kind of lifeless and there haven't been any exciting reveals.

The Dead Rising Series is my personal favorite, but State of Decay is a ton of fun as well.

Finally got my hands on it today. I have both consoles, and I can say without a doubt that I've enjoyed my time with the Xbox One more than the PS4. Part of it is familiarity, and part of it is that the Xbone just has better games out right now. I'm really enjoying Forza, DR3, and Ryse. I'm having a hard time believing that Ryse got such poor reviews, but I'm glad I ignored them.

With all of that said, I'm more impressed with the Kinect than anything. Outside of one instance where it couldn't read my voice because of background noise, it's worked perfectly. I'm not a big motion control or voice command kind of guy, but everything I've done has me really juiced. Plus, the TV functionality is awesome. I didn't think it would work with my cable provider, but it's been great.

My gamertag is Bengerman 1031, if any of you want to add me!

1. Bioshock Infinite

2. The Last of Us

3. Grand Theft Auto V

4. Pokemon Y

5. NBA 2K (Next-Gen)

6. Madden 25 (Next-Gen)

7. Tomb Raider

8. Animal Crossing

9. Dead Space 3

10. I'm leaving it open, because I have yet to play Zelda and Mario. I'm almost positive one of those would end up here.

The lack of games is pretty killer on the PS4 for me right now. I like BF4, NBA 2K, and Killzone is above average. But I'm not someone who can do just sports games and FPS. There's an incredible lack of RPG (my favorite genre) and adventure on both consoles. Good thing I have my Xbox One available to me on Tuesday, because I love the Dead Rising series, and that should help mix things up.

I like the PS4's UI, but inviting friends to games is a big hassle.

My brother and I both pre-ordered the console, and we've had two completely different experiences.

Mine shipped in great condition, I had no trouble getting on PSN, and everything worked perfectly. He got his, and it was DOA. Nothing to be done but ship it back to Sony and hope they can fix it.

Quick question, for those who do have to ship the console back to Sony, what kind of downtime are they looking at? The Sony rep said under 3 weeks to my brother, but I have a feeling things are a lot worse than that. If I'm Sony, I don't worry about producing anymore consoles until each and every person with a broken one gets a brand new console back.

One day in, and nothing but positives on my end. My expectations were exceeded, somehow.

I have both, and the 3DS definitely has the better library of games. But I wouldn't want to miss out on a future Zelda, Mario 3D Land, etc.

Disappointing for sure. Outside of NBA 2K and maybe Dead Rising 3, I'm not sure I see any titles not named Battlefield that are going to uphold a solid rating on Metacritic.

Glad I didn't sell my 360 or PS3.
