Does the wireless 360 headset from Microsoft work with Xbone. Like this one: http://imgur.com/T2inHge
I heard from a friend who works at Best Buy that each store will have 30 consoles of both PS4/Xbox One that will be available this Sunday, morning I presume.
haha. im just talking for flipping purposes. They are going for 600-650 before shipping that most people are charding 40 bucks for. If I can sell 5 then mine is free :grin::grin::grin:
["It's also worth noting that the survey did not estimate how many consoles were purchased, nor did it say how many customers were surveyed. InfoScout also adds that Microsoft won by such a hefty margin mainly because of supply." QUOTE=cheke64;8476878]2 suspects demanded all their xbox but left empty handed with nine ps4's. [/QUOTE] Well just for perspective on this article.... "It's also worth noting that the survey did not estimate how many consoles were purchased, nor did it say how many customers were surveyed. InfoScout also adds that Microsoft won by such a hefty margin mainly because of supply." Not only that the ps4 is not even sold in one 6th of the countries that the xbox is right now. Last I checked the ps4 sold 1 million units on launch day in America alone. It took 13 countries for the xbox to reach that number.

Increase supply dramatically by using near cutting edge parts (as opposed to cutting edge parts DD3 vs DD5 etc) and flood the market. Then with a saturated market they can make their move. Sony on the other hand made more of a gaming console, but it's harder to supply the market with. It's like VHS vs. BetaMax all over again, but then again, I think the differences between XB1 and PS4 are a lot smaller than VHS/BetaMax...
DDR3 isn't near cutting edge, it came out nearly 7 years ago. They both are mostly built from off the shelf components, hence the amd cpu/gpu. From the initial cost break downs, the xbone (minus kinect) is more expensive to build than the ps4 because of the inclusion of esram. PS4 is at over 2.1 million sold, if anything Sony is producing more PS4's than Xbones.
As chow_yun_fat pointed out, the XBO is probably more difficult/expensive to manufacture, due to the ESRAM (plus Kinect and possibly other components). Certainly doesn't seem like MS has a huge advantage in this area (if anything, it appears Sony has the advantage).

I think the Blu-Ray vs HD DVD comparison is more timely. Correct me if I'm wrong, were there people that thought only one of Xbox 360/PS3 would survive and win out in the market? Also, the Xbox HD DVD drive is only $90 on Amazon! http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-360-HD-DVD-Player/dp/B000JHO4L0
Probably for people that still have a large collection of HD-DVD's. Or there are some that pick it up now, just because the movies are dirt cheap.
