    Hehe...

    So Sony did good with no DRM and $399. Those alone probably make it better than what MS is doing.

    Games were a toss-up between the two I guess. I like the PS stuff a lot better, though that depends on what actually ends up being released (I hate that I have to say this). I want to love FFXV (and it could be better than anything for me, MGS5 included), but I don't want to trust Square-Enix. Same for KH3. I'm assuming those 2 are exclusive, or timed exclusive (FFXV rumor was that Sony was helping with development). Nothing in the MS conference matches those for me (except MGS5, but also on PS4).

    I expected more games from Sony frankly (and the indie games don't count, though I'm sure they're nice), and more gameplay (which I guess they have, but didn't show for some stupid reason?).

    Boo at charging for online play. Everyone should have PS+ anyway, but boo still (especially for casual gamers). Not cool.

    These never seem to meet expectations. :(

    (I'm tempted to pre-order a PS4 just for FFXV and KH3...but I remember the last time I got a console with the hopes that I'd be able to play those SAME DAMN GAMES!)

    There is a camera, although I don't know if it is included or just an accessory. I don't know if Sony even knows.

    It isn't always on or anything though.

    No Big Brother, No Restrictions on the games you buy.

    I think the biggest winner right now is PS3 and Xbox360. I think more people will go out to buy a cheap ps3 then go out to buy a next gen console.

    I wouldn't mind paying for ps plus. There are many benefits to having it, like, a free game every month, discounted games, etc. This is better than live on xbox. Even if you don't have ps plus, you still have access to netflix and amazon instant.

    It was a bummer they weren't actually showcasing 2k14's features and gameplay. A positive sign we can get from the trailer is that Lebron's lips actually moved correctly.

    Staying loyal to Xbox. For some reason everytime I hear playstation I think of people that wear Ed Hardy.

    Hopefully this is wrong, but games on Amazon for PS4 are available for pre-order for $99, while similar games on Xbox One for $59.

    Anyways placed my pre-order for PS4

    The Amazon page for PS4 implies the camera is included I think?

    This was touched on earlier with Xbone games, but Amazon is listing $99 for some games. Just a placeholder.

    They're just placehorders for prices. Theyll all be $59, all the non-special editions ones.

    Have owned every Sony console so far and I'm glad that I will still be sticking with them. Them announcing Kingdom Hearts 3 made it that much sweeter.

    It's just a precaution when prices are uncertain. Xbox One games were listed for $99 earlier.

    Don't worry about missing Halo, Destiny will fill your missing hole. IMO, Destiny looked pretty good when played during E3. It seems like that game will grow into a great and longlasting series, just like Halo.

    And the fact that they did good with just those two things is pretty sad. $100 is less than the price of two games. And no DRM we expected at this point.

    Paid subscription blows. I thought Sony would continue to be the good guys on that one. Personally I think they may have done better doing free online play again -- enough people probably would've signed up just for cloud saves and free games.

    *sigh* Oh well. Nothing to be done.

    LOL...the difference in price is the Kinect. That Kinect camera is an HD setup. MS doesn't want fragmentation, you sell once system that everyone develops for and you know what hardware everyone has. It is sort of the Apple strategy.

    Based on their wording in the conference people are assuming KH3 is def multiplat.
