So it possibly seems the Xbox One's E3 appearance is it's only chance to impress?


No,  they just blew it badly.  E3 won't matter.

The release event was their chance to engage and hype potential customers,  Gamers,  and they just spent ~45 minutes talking about TV and showed a couple of pre-rendered cutscenes (Foraza,  Quantum).  They basically telegraphed to Gamers that their focus is not on gaming.

Over the course of the next 24 hours,  they're going to get ripped to shreds,  and public support is going to shift hard to Sony.  Between now and E3,  XboxO is going to get labeled as a TV box and their reveal event torn to shreds.  The focus on a gimmick,  Kinect,  didn't help matters much either.  Kinect isn't a Gamers feature,  it's a Gadget.

They'll walk in to E3,  and show off mostly the same stuff as everyone else,  except for a Halo exclusive and *maybe* a Kinect-Fable game.  Since most of what they show people can get on another system,  people won't care unless you're hugely into Halo.

The post-show is going over more specs and such.

Is there an article summarizing the "big reveal"? I don't feel like sorting through a dozen articles or watching a video tbh.

Apparently used games will need a license fee + games will need an installation to work.

So how does it compare to the ps4 techwise?


Probably a few gadget sites will compare/contrast soon, if they haven't already.


PS4 is better. Uses, 8 GB DDR5 Ram- xbox uses DDR3. PS4 runs 8 cores at 2.8 GHz, Xbox runs 8 at 1.6GHz.

So at the very least the PS4 will be faster right outta the box. That's a fact.

well the extra mem now makes sense with the install. And given some of the last replies I've read here with obvious questions, I gather most of you can't be assed around to you know...scroll up and read?

Funny thing is, Sony was gonna put 4GB of Ram into the PS4 initially- they then heard about Microsoft using 8GB and they doubled.

I'm glad for those who'll get PS4, which for all I know I still might.

Good job Microsoft. I'll be picking up that new Xbox never.

I always purchase my games new, so I have no worries about pre-owned anything.


Your loss.

I almost never buy new. The last console game I bought new at full price was ME3.

Will PS4 rekindle your relationship with your TV? Bring the magic of television back to the living room? No? Than the Xbox One is the superior console.

So in the end they showed less than Sony, where are the specs?

That fluff is useless.

Are those 8 cores the ones in the Samsung Galaxy S4?
What kind of RAM are we talking about, how much will be reserved for the OS?
It won't have a GPU? Command line games and software rendering are coming back I guess...
Is it using a Windows 8 kernel? DX level?

Pre owned games make me feel dirty. The elitist life chose me.

Never rent, never borrow. If I want a game, I either buy it brand new myself or I avoid it entirely.

I was actually disappointed in my stepbrother when we went to Gamestop so I could buy him The Walking Dead Telltale game on-disc for his birthday- he wanted me to get the used one since it was cheaper. Weird too, there was a used copy like the day it came out on disc.

I think they said 512 is reserved for the OS. I could be wrong they really spoke fast during the spec part.

I'm willing to bet Destiny will look amazing with the X1's graphical power.

Guess we can write off the next six months of announcements then.  Sony won with their reveal which showed a controller and a share button...

Good News! Xbox One (Kind of) Doesn't Require Internet Connection (Maybe)

All the rumors point to the RAM being DDR3.  I'd be surprised if they used anything different.

fee to play used games, pre-orders ps4.

If I wasn't able to rent games I wouldn't have bought the majority of games I bought.
