    Tax is 30 and you get it on launch day which is pretty cool if you order on amazon.

    I'll get the PS4 and stick with my 360 for now when it comes to MS.

    I have a feeling they will be backtracking very fast on the used game thing, though.

    I've been a Sony loyal since they got into the game business. I'm thinking of jumping ship for a XB1. I'm a Windows Phone user and have XBox music account. I've got kids now, so playing hard core games isn't something i have time for or care to get into. I like the entertainment package the Microsoft is selling. The TV, music, and web features draw to me more than being able buy a used game.

    Not loyal to any company unless they want to personally pay me for my loyalty.

    So I'll go with PS4 until I see the game that makes me want to buy a XB1

    Or you like the all in one setup plus Kinect, and don't mind their BS policies.

    Personally, I mind their BS policies, and will be boycotting. While the price of the system doesn't bother me, an alternative structure with add-ons (like PS4 is doing, and Xbox did previously) would have been easier for people to swallow.

    Can anyone chime in what the re-sale market will be on the PS 4's? In other words, if I were to buy more than one, could I sell them at a profit similarly to what happens in Jordan re-releases?


    We could be catchin ammonia out here.

    Unless their is a shortage upon release due to the demand, then definitely not.

    I need to look into more detail into these exclusives and will decide from there.

    I do like the idea of not having to wait in line at Gamestop at midnight...I have no issues with the restrictions that XBone is placing because none of them impact my life. Therefore, purely my opinion and how I see it:

    PS4
    Cheaper (even though it's insignificant)
    Better specs
    Geared more towards gaming than media stuff
    Naughty Dog

    XBone
    More exclusives (not necessarily better, TBD)
    A true multimedia center
    Ability to download, avoid lines, and not deal with discs (It may be a negative for many, it's a positive for me)
    Potential to push the limits of gaming with Kinect
    Better controller (Ive always hated the PS controllers)

    I need a few more months until I figure out which games I want to play when the systems are released. I'll pick my system based on those initial games/exclusives.

    Yeah buy a couple and I'll take one off your hands, haha. I'll host a party for you at Roak in exchange. :grin:

    Ive bought too many movies on my xbox to just jump ship, but PS4 did an outstanding job. Plus I love Halo.

    Yeah Digital Download is going to be everywhere, that's a given. No idea why that would be considered a plus for anyone, though.
