Re: The New XBOX --- Watch live and join the discussion!
Playstation 4 or Xbox One? Mm, Happy with my PC that I'm about to fix at the moment. (GTX 680 is like MAGIC!)
I would probably end up with the Xbox One if it has free Xbox Live Gold or w.e (Can someone confirm this or not? or has it not been announced). If Playstation Network is free on the PS4 I think I will get the PS4.
Not that I'd use them much.

Not trying to be a fan-boy or anything but come on you're honestly saying the Xbox 360 was better than the Playstation 3? I have them both and I prefer the PS3 because I buy games and I don't have to pay any more to play online! and many other factors (Blu-Ray, I could go on forever) And the fact WiFi wasn't built in until 2011.
Some people prefer Xbox but in my honest opinion the Xbox has only shined in my eyes today, Not much is even known about the PS4 yet, looking forward to E3!!!

Re: The New XBOX --- Watch live and join the discussion!
Any increase in LIVE price and I may have to be forced to choose a PS4

That would be pretty cool, however I think it might be late for that. I know they're starting something with DVDs on Windows 8 RT Tablets where it has a code, that comes with the DVD, you can type in and it will play that DVD without inserting the disc in, so maybe they can do something like that. I don't know though because that was only because of the tablet being too small for a disc drive.
I really think that Microsoft is saying "Take those features and shove 'em up your ass!" to Sony. They're adding all kinds of cool stuff now, and all the features that were on PS3 that they should've added on Xbox 360, but didn't such as Blu-Ray, Trayless Disc Drive, Motion Sensors, etc. The Xbox 360 seemed to be a rush job of sorts to catch up with PS3. I think that Xbox One has been in the works since Xbox 360 was launched or at least a year or two after. They made mistakes on Xbox 360 like RRoD, features like stated, and features that they added in late. They tried fixing that by making new versions of the Console like Elite, Arcade, Slim, but they didn't work out too well. So, now I think they're going to take all the reasons that PlayStation fans have to not like Xbox and that make PlayStation "better" then Xbox and fix them and make them better to add on to that. The only thing that will hold them back is the fact that they're still going to charge for Xbox LIVE Membership.
To all of those who think that PS4 will be better then Xbox One, take this into consideration:
- Xbox One will have 100x better, faster, and greater connections while online then PS4, Why?
Microsoft is going to have 300,000 SECURE (not going to be hacked like PlayStation Servers were) servers running for Xbox LIVE. Only Xbox has the means to do this, and that's what we, the users of Xbox LIVE, pay for. Safe, Secure, and Fast servers which is why Microsoft can afford 300,000 of them.
Why won't Sony be able to compete with this?
Do you honestly believe that Sony will buy 300,000 safe, secure, and INSTANTANEOUS servers for un-paying users? If you think so, you should seek assistance from a Doctor. If they did do this, they would probably go bankrupt because they don't have the means to do so.
- As always, Downloadable Content for games and other features/accessories will be available FIRST on Xbox LIVE for more then just Call of Duty. Microsoft has the money to do this multiple times, and they have the connections to get companies to go through with it.
Why can't Sony compete?
The do not have the money to compete with Microsoft in any negotiations with companies. 'Nuff said about that.
- Microsoft is already working with companies to get exclusive features in games ONLY for Xbox customers. One being, FIFA Ultimate Team *Exclusive Content* which, like stated already, will probably send FIFA fans running to purchase Xbox One.
Why can't Sony compete?
They do not have the money or connections to compete with Microsoft.
I'm not trying to slander Sony in any way, and I actually do believe their products are quite great. They just won't be able to compete with Microsoft this time around, due to the fact that they don't have the means to do so. They are a very popular, wealthy, and technologically advanced company, but not to the degree in which Microsoft simply is.
So, please, don't take my previous comments the wrong way. :thumbup:

I doubt there will be an increase in price. However, they will most likely still charge for Xbox LIVE, but that's only to assure the best in services, unlike PlayStation Network.
@zJordan While you do make valid points, I do honestly believe Xbox 360 was, is, and will forever be the best system between PS3 and Xbox 360. I know that PlayStation had some features that the 360 did not have, but it still does not beat the amount of games that came out EXCLUSIVELY on Xbox.
If you're going to complain about the fact they charge to play online on Xbox LIVE, you can just take it easy. It's really not that bad in all reality, and it's worth the money if you're really into playing online. Better Services throughout, and not for nothing much more secure.
We pay for the sole reason to protect our personal information, our accounts, and the servers themselves from potential hackers and other threats. PlayStation Network is free, but very insecure to a high degree. The fact that a small group of hackers was able to hack the servers and steal 77,000,000 accounts in less than 48 hours is ridiculous. That just shows you how insecure the PlayStation Network servers are. That means the personal information of 77,000,000 people, compromised in a matter of 2 days because 7,000,000 people did not want to pay $5.00/month, $60.00/year. Maybe $8.00-$10.00/month in Pre-Paid Cards.

The 360 slim had aswell? lol
Anyway, looks fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: The New XBOX --- Watch live and join the discussion!
Xbox live never had 150k servers.

The Xbox Live is scaled up to use 300,000 servers for Xbox One users from 15,000 that handle the Xbox 360 users. Cloud storage is offered to save music, movies, games and saved content and developers will be able to leverage Live servers to offer more "living and persistent worlds."

You also make fair points but you are using one point, and that is the PSN Outage, who the fuck cares, its in the past, Your saying that you need to pay to use the internet just to be secure? You obviously believe that Sony didn't patch the exploits in which were exploited in the outage. Do you actually believe companies don't learn from their mistakes?
The best online services for gaming is PC, Fact. (We have Skype, Steam, and a dozen other third-party chat/stores to choose from)
Do you not realize that the servers were hacked via their web service? Do you also not realize that all personal information is encrypted..
Your point about Sony not being able to compete? Sony have one of the largest chunks of Music and Movie marketshare, and you say they don't have money to start a huge marketing campaign. It doesn't even cost 1 billion to have a good marketing campaign.
By the way as of 2012 the Playstation 3 had higher quality and more exclusives than the Xbox 360.
Anyway can't keep on defending Lord Sony anymore, My friend wants his computer back while I wait for parts to arrive for mine :(
Re: The New XBOX --- Watch live and join the discussion!
I think it looks sexy. The controller looks iffy, but not too bad.
Also the only thing I seen different in CoD Ghosts is that the graphics have improved and the characters now have dirty nails and hairs on their arms.

Isn't a major leap from last generations graphics though, they look like Uncharted 3's graphics which is a PS3 Exclusive and is just.. a beautiful game.
The engine there using now will probably be used up until the next generation of consoles (2018 - 2020) so yeah this will be spectacular for the next year or two and then NEW ENGINE PLEASE. Battlefield 5 with its engine already looks 10x better! (Just my opinion on what will happen to that engine once EA do their thing)
