still so weird seeing the MGS trailer during an Xbox pc -_-



wow the MSFT press conference was boring maybe im just not a gamer anymore those games didn't appeal to me :/

titanfall looked okay but the story of invading a planet to take their resources is a bit of a wtf? and it wont be available until sometime in 2014 same with the new Halo


Xbox One: $500
Gold Acct: $50
Release: November

with no interesting launch title imo



hopefully playstations press conference doesn't disappoint

I hope HK will be one of the launch territories. Can't wait to play Forza 5 and Dead Rising 3!

reminds me a lot like the PS3 launch...meh at best
the only exclusive that stood-out was Ryse but there's too much QTE
$500 is asking too much IMO
it made sense when PS3 shipped with BD drive 7 years ago to charge that price
If sony can undercut them with a $399 tag they'll have a strong start unlike the current gen.

I may be one of the few but I might end up getting a Xbox One before getting a PS4. I really prefer the Xbox controller over the PS one, it just feels a lot more comfortable for me. We'll see what else Sony announces in their presser later this evening.

I have a feeling the PS4 will be $399 since it doesn't require an extra peripheral (Kinect). Specs are almost identical as well.

If their games are strong they won't need to be cheaper but I could see Sony go a bit less than the Xbox one, im just hoping they launch earlier than msft simply so I can get a new console sooner

Microsoft delays Xbox One launch in Asia by a whole year, forgets to even mention Japan

Quote:
If you thought November 2013 was too long to wait, bear a thought for Asian gamers who will apparently have to wait those six months, plus an additional twelve, to pick up their Xbox One. According to Alan Bowman, Microsoft's Regional VP for Sales and Marketing in Asia, the new console will launch in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea and India around late 2014. (Note the lack of Japan on that list, we're still checking with Microsoft on that.) These are all regions that have been marked as gaming high-growth areas by Microsoft -- the VP added that the Xbox 360 became the top-selling console in Asia this year. The company's also pointed to its next-generation Kinect sensor, one that will work in "dramatically reduced" room spaces and, according Bowman, will be better attuned to Asian gamers who might not have living room space in their homes.

Kinect was never even a possibility for me, and my living room is a decent size by HK standards I think.

Not that I would be interested anyway

Besides, most of the TV stuff Xbone has is useless in Asia anyway I think.

If it wasn't for region lock, I would definitely pick up a US machine. Almost all the games so far that I want to play is Xbox exclusive

i've always been a die hard xbox 360 fan over the PS3 even though i owned both.

however with the new consoles coming im def switching over to the PS4 for all my gaming

I wish microsoft/xbox would do a online poll with their existing XBL users and see how many people are doing the switch over as well.

Are people switching solely because of the used games/24 hour internet connection issues?

I will be sticking with Xbox (mind you I will probably buy both). I prefer the xbox live match making and overall xbox live experience to PSN. Connection and used game issues don't apply to me so I am looking at what type of new experiences each console can give me.

Hopefully we can also expect a much higher level of stability and cloud powered gaming when microsoft bumps it's live servers from 15,000 to 300,000.

We can only wait and see.

I think Microsoft is well aware of how many people buy a console and use it exclusively online. It sounds crass of them to say it when you edit the clip down to 18 seconds and add a whacky sound effect at the end, but it's the truth. If you are one of the very few who can buy a $500 machine but not have internet access, then you really should stick to the 360 or PS3 (or possibly the PS4, we don't know yet how publishers will handle game activation)
