Then again, this is all speculation. This isn't confirmed yet, nor is half of what yous are talking about! :rolleyes

well that's what i'm worried about is that they would do something as stupid as always on software and have some sort of problem that would turn it's customers against Microsoft. haven't they learned from Diablo 3's and Sim City 2012 launch failures which had always on features that went screwy

Well look at that. That's not so great that they don't have any big announcement. When one of the big three doesn't do a conference, that's a bit scandalous.

Aside from E3 '11, Nintendo's conferences were always what I looked forward to the most. It isn't gonna feel complete without one. I can't decide on whether it's a smart move or not—on one hand, they could've gotten swallowed up by the other two had they done a conference, but on the other hand, I don't know if a Nintendo Direct will reach as big an audience.

So, games are tied to accounts but you can trade them online, Kinect must be on, and games can offload calculations to MS's cloud at the price of being always online. It seems like all of the crappy rumors are true, just a little more mild. Hm.

It's the first time I've been online all day, so I was just scanning headlines and I wasn't impressed with anything I saw.

This was amusing though: http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/05/21/sony-stock-up-nine-percent-after-xbox-one-reveal

People like to argue that its already like this for PCs, But for services like steam you can Gift etc.

I think im done with consoles for awhile. Hopefully after a few generations of failures things will be awesome again.

Like seriously, What is the point of Xbox one? What do i have on that which i do not already have?

Thought I'd bump this thread since we're very close to launch and a lot's happened:

1. CoD:G runs at 1080p natively on PS4 while it's upscaled from 720p on XB1, and Digital Foundry claims that BF4 is running at 900p on PS4 and 720p on XB1.

2. Both systems have rumors of buggy operating systems (no surprise there).

3. Sony's just released a huge PS4 FAQ. Notable info includes no username changes, mandatory "caching" (installs), no dynamic themes (or background changes at all), no MP3 playback or media server/DLNA support, and devs can restrict recording certain areas of games (share button). Some of its features, like suspend/resume, are delayed as well.

4. Watch Dogs, The Crew, and Driveclub are delayed.

5. XBox 180 is complete with removal of Kinect requirements.

I think that's all the big stuff. I don't feel like I'm missing anything by not buying at launch now. Driveclub and Watch Dogs were the only launch games I was at all interested in. I'm pretty disappointed in the PS4 MP3 news as well, because that's usually how custom soundtracks were implemented. I love having that feature in racing games, and it would be a shame if it went away. XB1's launch in particular sounds like a mess if the GAF rumors are all true (and they have been, so far), but neither seem out of the ordinary for console launches.

I'm thinking I'll pick up a PS4 after Second Son, Driveclub, and ND's next game come out, so probably not until 2015, unless we magically get a new SSX game or WipEout comes back from the dead earlier (very unlikely). I'll be able to afford one by April though, so we'll see.

So, how is everyone feeling about next gen at this point? When do you think you'll buy in, if at all?

I don't think I'll buy in at all.
In my opinion, the best combo for next-gen is either PC+WII U or PC+3DS. Both of the major consoles seem like there's way too much stupid anti-consumer BS (Like being unable to play MP3s on PS4) to make me even consider buying either console.

So I'll stick with my PC and my 3DS thank you very much Sony and Microsoft for making this decision so easy. ;)

Wow, there's just so much stupid shit you can't do with the PS4 yet all the fanboys are still walking around with a boner in their pants. Both systems are terrible (so far). Just pisses me off that alot of people think the PS4 is superior in every way. Personally, im not getting either system until this whole thing dies down and we really see what is worth getting, if anything. I would be more than happy to join the PC snobs at this point.

I feel that there is really no need to buy a next gen console at launch. The games I'm really interested in are CD Projekt RED's games; The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, and who knows when they'll be ready. Also interested in Watch Dogs which now have been delayed. I'd like to purchase a Playstation 4 sometime next year when there are some good games and other stuff ready. PS4 wont play CDs :glare

I got to play PS4 today, so I played some Killzone: Shadow Fall. Good stuff. Also the controller is pretty nice. :cheers
