Had revoted xbox but I'm not sure I will get either now.

The xbox cost is just too much for my casual gaming. And ps4 I just have a gut feeling I won't get on with it.
How long before you can hold a demo controller?
 
I voted neither, because neither is going to provide me with 1080p/60fps maxed Witcher 3. And I cannot accept any compromises when it comes to this game. So I will get 16GB of RAM and GTX770 4GB or something similar for my PC instead.

Maybe in couple years, if there are some great exclusives (namely from Naughty Dog), I might get PS4. But the launch line up is completely uninteresting.
 
I can't justify the cost of either really....so I am gonna enter every competition going to win one!:p

Same here. backwards compatibility might have swayed me, but as there won't be, I will wait and see, and maybe pick one up a year or two after release depending on price, and decent looking exclusives.

I am pretty sure it will (I doubt they will even include ubersampling this time around). If it won't, then I will get whatever card will be necessary to attain it, even if it means Titan. Oh the beauty of PC. Do not care about the cost, not when it comes to game I have been anticipating for 3 years.
 
Neither, as console gaming simply doesn't cater to my tastes.

I flirted with both the 360 and PS3 for almost a couple of years, and quite frankly the latter was a serious disappointment and the apart from Mass Effect 1&2, Forza 2 (3 was sterile) and 1v100, the 360 didn't really offer me anything compelling.

The raging and fanboy wars do offer some amusement though and I'm very disappointed that Microsoft caved in on all that DRM nonsense. :D
 
Nothings changed for me, still going PS4. Can't afford both consoles, and PS4 just looks better. From hardware, company focus, games and it has the JRPG connection. So pretty easy decision.
 
Voted Both.

Preference? Sony won E3 for me and personally I think their communication with the public has been night and day when compared to how Microsoft has treated us as consumers.

Microsoft has some very logical ideas around why they had their initial policies but the way they communicated it was arrogant when challenged. Tools.
 
PS4 for me.

I have another problem though which I'm undecided on. Do I buy a 2nd PS4, or buy an Xbox One. I need 2 consoles as I have a gaming specific room in addition to my living room.

2nd PS4 would allow my partner to join in when I play games but the downside is that I'd need to buy the same game twice sometimes. (she only likes a small % of games - she would play things like The Division, or Zombie games etc).

If I go Xbox One I obviously get the benefit of a different console and different games. Downside there is that I have little or no interest in online gaming with people that I do NOT know in real life. And we all agreed together that next gen will be all about playing together and so are all getting PS4. Nobody will get Xbox One. So how many single player Xbox exclusives will be worth it?

Going off 360..NONE at all. Hmmmmmm lol

You may only have to buy one copy of a game provided its a digital download, this entirely depends on whether or not Sony have changed their policy from what it currently is now for the PS4 (as yet unknown I think). You currently can have your account on two consoles and any games/dlc you buy on that account can be downloaded and used on the second console at the same time, even by other users.

Good point. Forgot about that possibility. Guess I'll just wait and see when everything comes out for real and how it will all work at launch.

Added benefit would be that if partner is busy in the living room I can come off a game, then continue on the same game if I have 2 the same. So seems like there are more benefits of 2xPS4 than PS4+Xbone.

I did 2x PS3 this gen, but ended up swapping 1 for a 360 later on but that's because all my mates had 360. Won't be the case this time.
 
I'm not convinced you will see an adaptor on the market anytime soon. MS will control the headset market of which they will probably make more from the headsets rather than selling a cheap adaptor. I wouldn't be suprised if they do something similar with hard drives.

Me neither. ;) :p

UPDATE: Microsoft has announced that you will be able to keep using your Xbox 360 headset with Xbox One after all - although you'll need an adaptor to do so.

The new information emerged last night via the official Xbox Support Twitter account (thanks, VG247).

“We are working to develop an adapter for current wired headsets to connect. More details as we approach launch,” a Microsoft spokesperson said.

Microsoft has yet to say whether the adaptor will be included with the Xbox One console pack or available for sale separately. We're querying this with Microsoft now.

Voted undecided due to being unsure yet what I want as I've only just started researching. I have pre-ordered a PS4 with Fifa 14 as that will take up quite a bit of my time anyway but will no doubt end up with both. Unfortunately I don't have £800 flying around at the end of the year.

Not really been too bothered about either consoles exclusives that I have seen, and I'm not really happy with MS trying so hard to implement the Kinect.
