i dont think our generation will grow up from games personally.


and yeah i see what you are saying and im sure we have different taste in games and stuff so im not gonna argue saying well this game sucked or that game was awesome. I think the the Xbox will be awesome for some and the PS4 will be awesome for some


for me Titan Halo and Destiny (I know this one is cross platform) are my games. they other games i play will be cross so doesnt matter. Xbox controller is way better imo and it offers so really cool features

You technically can, but only once and they have to be on your friends list for 30 days.

I don't know I just feel that MS needs to come out and through us a bone here ... I mean I was xbox original, 360, 360 Elite, & Slim ... so I have supported a 1000000% but I just somewhat feel cheated as of right now. I hope from now until launch more info comes out to make me feel better about it though.


I agree its frustrating as hell, but they have never disappointed me in the past. Everything I have seen I have loved. The games look great and everything else about it should be awesome.

I still think there is a possibility I get a PS4 as well because this is more than likely my last console generation purchase, gotta grow up some time


Thats what the "entertainment" angle is for. A good excuse to keep gaming.

This is the #1 thing that has me hesitant to switch to PS4. I feel like I'd be missing out on the best online experience.

If all I did was play singleplayer used games, the PS4 is a no-brainer IMO.

Pretty much what I do with my PS3 currently, with the occasional online play.

That's the same thing that I was wondering. I have the PS4 Slim and the 360 Slim, and they both are in great shape. So should I really drop another 400$ or 500$ on a new system.Advice?




I'm not. Not for a good while. Like you , I have both systems. I'm happy with them, so why spend the extra money right away

Honestly I think me and you are VERY SIMILAR on this and we do share the same taste in games because the three you listed there are the same ones that matter to me and all others (i.e. FIFA, BF4, etc.) are cross platforms so why do I care.

As RTR said the "entertainment" will allow us to keep playing games ...

Also I know I'm being down right now but I'll come out of this soon and throw on my armor:knight2: for the XBONE ... I mean c'mon I'M THE ONLY ONE ON THIS BOARD THAT THOUGHT WHAT THEY DID TO RYSE FROM TAKING IT FROM HEAVY KINECT BASED COMBAT TO QTE WAS A BAD THING ... so you know where my allegiances lie. I have just been tempted my that dark Japanese mistress and it's taking me awhile to overcome.

In the end though I will have XBONE because of those features that intrigued me so much, exclusives that I care for, and MOST IMPORTANTLY I'LL GET A XBONE BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE THAT STUPID arse JANKED UP CONTROLLER PLAYSTATION DOES, SERIOUSLY IF THEY HAVEN'T REALLY IMPROVED THAT THING IT WILL BE A DEAL BREAKER FOR ME.

controller is huge for me.

like i said i think the features of switching and multi tasking will be really cook.


on the ryse game, looked great but i hate the whole slow mo hit (Y) then (x) i just think that takes away from the realness of the game.


I think the Xbox will be badass personally.

This

The one thing I'm looking forward to is remember what the 360 was like when it first came out and where it is now.

I can't wait to see where they go with the Xbox One.

Personal preference I know but I still THIS RYSE would have 1000000000x better than the QTE (slow mo hit button sequnce) game they just showed at this E3.

The only people that would have bitched would be the lazy asses that can't get off their couch and can you imagine how awesome this gameplay would have been with how RYSE looked at the presentation ... KINECT GAMECHANGER to meh, it looks good visually though

seems X1 so far has

-Better exclusives

-more entertainment (could lead to canceling cable down the road. That $100 PS4 owners will save initially? XB1 owners could save $100 every month by taking cable off, if XB1 offers enough entertainment options)

-More potential with Kinect
-Better online experience
-Microsoft's secure network

i agree with you but we are a long way away from xbox having their own cable. they are just a hub for your box right now. and it wouldnt be a huge savings IMO anyway

i went a good while without cable when i had xbox 360. I suspect the XB1s offerings for digital entertainment will be even more expansive.

antennae for locals
xb1 for premium content/random shows when you want it
espn3 for sports
netflix for movies

hbo isnt a big deal to me but i know it is for some.

just tossing out ideas here.

If I had a way to watch sports on my xbox(outside of the ESPN app) I probably would have canceled mine a long time ago.

It is steadily getting there though. League Pass for the NBA and I think there is a MLB app. I'm ready to hear more about their deal with the NFL.
