...doing any of the many non-gaming functions Microsoft provides will flash upon my screen, AND a new Call of Duty game. Fantastic. I'm going to reread the specs for PS4.

After a Microsoft-hosted London event around the Xbox One reveal, Xbox's UK marketing director Harvey Eagle said that the console won't function without Kinect connected.

The PS4 is technologically the same console as the Xbox1. Notifications can be turned off just like they can on the 360. When I'm watching a movie,I dont see stupid stuff

Instead of worrying about NEW crap, with consoles, Microsoft and Sony should have worried about what they already had, at which they both failed!

Nah, I'm pretty sure it's been time for new consoles for at least a couple years now.

I disagree

Just because you believe something doesn't make it true. :)

Sorry guys

Ok no dramas just didn't know if I should push me and jervic over the line or not.

and gloom? Just because they wanted to impress non-gamers with all the TV and internet stuff doesn't mean they're not looking after us still. 15 exclusives coming our way

still, remember the conference was nationally televised, they were going after the mass market, not the hardcore gamer with that conference. I'm waiting till E3 before I

dispair lol.

Well said.

How about nerd players who rent games? how about those who cant afford money to buy new games? who care about TV ? its horrible mate

Xbox is a gaming console! Whenever you sit on the Xbox means (you are gamer)

Being locked out unless you connect to the internet once every 24 hours isn't the best... http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=561013

As well as MS essentially stopping the practice of lending games to friends by forcing a fee upon them (by the sounds of it, the full RRP).

It's not all that appealing. The real dealbreaker for me though, is the new time exclusive achievements. Being a completionist is tough as it is, but now they can add...

achievements whenever they want and restrict them to say a weekend, or a certain event. I don't mind the TV stuff, or Kinect, but they're pushing some very..

anti-consumer practices with the Xbox One. I'm still interested to see what Rare has been working on for the past few years, but beyond that, I'm out.

The internet thing isn't the greatest I agree but I don't see it affecting me. I'm still not sure about the second hand games thing. From what I hear you have to install

the game to play and then from then on all players on the console that initially installed it can play it and you don't need the disc. As I said before I can see these

things being downers it's just that they don't really affect how I do things. Timed exclusive achievements are real tough I agree, and being a completionist myself I do

think it's going to be a tough pill to swallow but I guess some completions just won't be possible. Lending games is the real toughy I think, if it were me I would make

a cheaper licence (say $10) to give you access to play the game but only with the disc in, and full price for no disc if they're going that direction.

I personally will be happy with my 360's until they are eliminated completely. I still have a backlog of 200+ mix arcade/retail games to do. No way I'm jumping ahead

and buying a new console called "One". EA already stopped the "Online Access" that they were selling for people that bought used games for the 360. I am assuming others

will be following in the "One" and make everyone buy brand new games or Games on Demand. What I say about this? No problem. I won't buy the console until some of the

newer games become older games and prices drop to 1/3. This way I can buy 3 games for the price of one. Fuck You MS :)
