I've always been a playstation guy, but I might make the move to Xbox IF I decide to upgrade. Love that they are trying to make it a media center, as when I move I will be looking to ditch cable. Not to mention, one thing I loved about ps3 was the free online play. Not that that is gone, it makes my decision easier. All of my close friends are xbox guys as well, so that might give me a reason to actually play some games again. Would I be able to download a movie, put in on a usb, and then plug it into the xbox and watch?
All opinions on why I shouldn't get the xbox/should get the ps4 are appreciated.
PS4 -- better game visuals/performance, PS+ offers are great, better exclusives (personal preference)
Xbox One --- Better online (Xbox Live is great), better media offerings, still good gaming, kinect has a lot of potential

This is what I wanted to see. Hopefully it works that good in normal home environment with the retail Xbox One, but I'm leaning more towards keeping my preorder after seeing this. Looks great, imo.

I've heard that some stores around here (Gamestop) may be open at midnight Friday to sell whatever they have in-stock at the time. You guys think this will be something people will be camped out all day for?

I'm thinking people will camp out a bit, afternoon/evening on thursday. I don't think you will be able to find one anywhere after Friday morning.friendfromlowry;1532619 wrote:I've heard that some stores around here (Gamestop) may be open at midnight Friday to sell whatever they have in-stock at the time.

I think I'm going with Killzone, BF4, and probably Madden 25 (want to see reviews on Madden hopefully Monday or Tuesday morning first...)

Target still has the deal all week in stores...imex99;1535014 wrote:Picking my ps4 up tomorrow for the game stop midnight launch.

I went with Madden/Killzone/BF 4
I'm keeping Madden sealed as I may need to sell it if the reviews are horrible...Worries me that there has been basically no footage of the game.

I haven't heard anything...It's kind of looking like a no since the PS4 deal leaked in the Target ad a couple weeks early. Xbox One is next week and I've not heard of anything special. You never know with Amazon, though...robj55;1535116 wrote:Xbox going to have something similar?

What Xbox One launch games are you guys getting?
I just sold my PS4 copy of Madden on ebay...Saw some gameplay and it's the exact same as PS3/Xbox 360 versions...EA is a joke.
So, I'm thinking I'll pick up Dead Rising or Ryse, whichever is the most well received game next week...

Ryse looks amazing but it also seems like one of those games where you can rent and beat in like 2 days. I'd love to be wrong. Dead rising 3 looks awesome and will be huge I'm guessing.

They played it smart appealing to a large audience with the casual camera game...I considered grabbing the camera because I know my 3 year old would love this mini-game, but decided against it at least for now since I'm getting the Xbox One/Kinect as well. Sony just hasn't shown that they are going to use it a lot, so it doesn't seem worth the $60 at this point.GoChiefs;1536065 wrote:PS4 on Jimmy Fallon.
My PS4 is out for delivery, can't wait to play after work, probably start with Killzone then play some BF4....Resogun looks awesome too and is getting great reviews...

I got a break from work around 2AM so I went over to Wal Mart and Meijer -- both sold out already. Oh well, guess I have a couple months to see how the two systems are reviewed and which will be better for me.McFly1955;1532620 wrote:I'm thinking people will camp out a bit, afternoon/evening on thursday.

Mine showed up this afternoon. I got a defective one. Blue Pulsing light, no video,only way to turn it off is to unplug it. So after that I try to turn it on again. This time it works. I downloaded the update and on the restart I lost video again. Had to unplug it again. I wait an hour and turn it back on, it finally works. I try to sign in to PSN and it completely crashed. The screen went green and the PS4 shuts down. I wait another hour and it started up and I played about 10 minutes of the BF4 campaign. Then I went to dinner and when I came back the same issue occurs, blue pulsing light on the PS4 and no video. There is a 2+ hour wait on Sony's customer support number. Pretty pumped to get an awesome system.
