Nintendo

real controller

In all seriousness though if Nintendo were to step up the plate with something impressive I'd have no qualms about getting whatever they came out with. All Nintendo really has going for it are IPs though, and they'll need something better to start dominating the market Sony and Microsoft has.

The Xbox One will be always Kinected because a Kinect comes with every Xbox One.

All games will be installed & to play used games you have to pay a small fee.

Microsoft loves turning the Xbox brand into a cable box rather than a console. About 85 % of that conference was about their new console being a cable box. Is the Xbox One a Next Gen Console or a Cable Box?

I don't think Microsoft understands how counting works. They went from the original to the 360 and now to the One.

Forgive my silly joke. But really, it doesn't look too impressive to me... And no backwards compatibility... That would be my only reason for sticking with the Xbox at this point, so I'll probably end up jumping on the PS4 bandwagon as well. They have better exclusives, anyways.

I think they should have called it the 180...

What they're turning into at the base of it is a computer. Multitasking, Skype, things that aren't video games, and so on. It makes me wonder if they took the people that should have been busy making Windows 8 good and stuck them with the Xbox team.
