I thought it had voice recognition...which would solve that problem. Unless you recorded someone saying it and replayed it.

True.

One of my friends played a prank on my other friends by yelling "Xbox Off" every time he got off Xbox when Kinect first came out. My other friends spent the next few months trying to figure out how to make it work.

I didn't watch the press conference so I'm still learning all this.

Lol their system is garbage. Did you see the reveal of the PS4 user interface? Hello Flash player demo circa 2001.

The PS4 seems like a better deal than the Xbox One.

And what makes it a better deal if you make the packages even. Xbox+kinect+controller=$499, ps4+controller=$399. How much is the camera thing for ps4? By the time you add that in I bet its $499+. Some may say they don't want the camera with their ps4, well then you can't compare it to xbox one since its included with X1. Just curious why you feel its a better deal. I have nothing against ps4 its just not for me. I'm an xbox guy.

I bet you a PS4 that you're wrong.

The price for Sony's equivalent for the PS4 has already been announced, it's $50. So if you want to make them equal packages, the PS4 still comes out cheaper at $449.

Add on to the fact that many 3rd party developers have came out and said that the PS4 is more then 50% more powerful than the Xbox1 and that games that the PS4 can run at 60 fps in 1080i can only do so in 720p on the Xbox, the PS4 very quickly becomes a better deal.

Did anyone else see the latest interview from Gamestop? They are claiming that MS changed their stance on used games because of them. Apparently one of Gamestops executives told MS that if they didn't change the way their system treats used games before launch, Gamestop will stop promoting the Xbox1 and all of it's games.

Good news for those of us who liked the "cloud" assisting the Xbox....

"Microsoft was pretty excited for the Xbox One's use of the cloud, citing it as one of the many reasons gamers will want to be always online with the new console.
Although the check-in requirement has been dropped with the exception of the system's initial setup, Xbox One will still make full use of the cloud when there's an internet connection available.
Microsoft's 300,000 servers for Xbox One give developers the ability to offload some of a game's processing power, like AI, to the cloud, thus taking the system's specs to an appropriate cloud-like level."

With both companies using Cloud tech this generation, I'm curious to see what each company will do to make their version of Cloud unique. We know very little about each companies plans for Cloud atm. This is going to be interesting imo.
