Very impressive functionally, but everyone's sure to hate how they handle pre-owned games.

Yep, first time I've ever been really excited about an Xbox. I just wish it looked less like a....box.

HA! I hear ya there. We have the original XBOX (still have it hooked up) and the 360 Kinect. So at some point I guess the odds are good that we'll graduate into this one.

Ummm.....this video game limited/special edition thing is getting out of hand. Super cool, though:

The PS4:

I was hoping the new gen would have sexier designs (the original PS3 is still the best looking over the last 4 gens IMO), but I'm impressed with content and function overall. I pre-ordered the Xbox One Day One Edition already and the PS4 is next once it's listed. Let's hope for more reliable hardware out of the gate this time around.

WOW Oak! I didn't know you were that hardcore into games. PS4 isn't bad aesthetically. Pretty cool.

Not a hardcore gamer at all, but I do appreciate console designs and their games. They're becoming a bigger part of living room/entertainment room/mancave decor.

I'm torn this time around. Not sure if I should go with PS4 or XBOX One. Any suggestions other than get both?

I've pre-ordered both but the more I hear about the Xbox One, the less I like it. It'll have some very solid exclusive games (such as Titanfall, Ryse, Project Spark, Halo and Gears of War), however. PS4 looks like it's more powerful GPU and CPU-wise, but I doubt that'll be exploited to a noticable level to consumters like us. I like Sony's straight forward secondary marketing trade policy and the ability to play offline as long as I want (which I would do more than online play). Plus, I'm not a huge first person shooter player, so exclusive games like God of War, Uncharted, Last of Us, Infamous, etc. appeals to me more. So it's PS4 for me and wait-and-see with keeping the XBOne.

The XBOX One seems to have awesome entertainment system integration as compared to PS4. I guess it depends if you want games and a one-stop hub or just games. I LOVE Sony though. Most of my electronics are Sony.

Yeah, if you're into it purely for a media hub, then XB1 is your choice; that voice control thing is pretty slick.

MS did a turnaround and removed the 24 hour online requirement and the restrictive DRM policy:

Keeping the XB1 for sure now. Seems they're the ones to beat this gen.

I just read the news, good change. Now Xbox in my opinion will be the winner of next generation.
