Have you considered writing to Microsoft to let them know they're wasting their time? Perhaps you could provide them with usage statistics to back up your argument.

When is it out?

Looks rubbish overall. It cemented my decision to buy a PS4 this gen. My xbox 360 is just gathering dust at the moment since most xbox games come out on PC (and are cheaper and look better). The only good exclusive it had this gen was Gears of War 1 IMO. I bought Halo 3 and never really enjoyed it. Had some good fun with Left 4 Dead 1+2 on it splitscreen, and Mass Effect 1+2 but those games were out on PC too. The PS3 had more interesting exclusives this gen.
MS seems far too focused on Kinect and making it a set-top box rather than a gaming machine.

It's pretty clear now that the only people defending this are the hardcore xbox/microsoft fans. Just looking around the internet on various forums and sites such as reddit etc. The reaction across the board is extremely negative

Agree.
I've heard nothing on games. It's all about M$ Services. Could care less about there services. I steam also in every room in my house. So want a games console.
Very unhappy......

IMO The only thing sony achieved was to keep people guessing. We still know very little about the system.
considering you say "it looks rubbish" and youre getting PS4 when you havent even seen it yet says a lot about your fanboyism lol

I'm beginning to think some people have never heard of E3.
Gears of War 1 was out on PC too.

hmm i read on a few sites that it has an 8 core cpu with 8gb of ddr3 ram?

Might be, but they don't even use 8 cores in gaming now. So all that talk is hear say
They were the leaked specs. All microsoft have confirmed is that they didn't aim for top end graphics

Not sure about that, I'll be getting both on launch (and I said that before either had been announced). Preference will be 3rd Party games on the Xbox though because of the controller.

You guys do realise that this was the console launch announcement right? E3 is where we will see the games line-ups + in-game footage.
This event wasn't designed to show the world the games, so how can you be disappointed about something that wasn't meant to happen?
There seems to be a lot of confused people on this thread.
far too sensible a post
It's coincidental timing. The stock price jump has been caused by the (unconfirmed) news that Sony will make the decision today (it's Wednesday in Japan now) to spin off its film and music arms.
Don't use Twitter for a news source. People like to gossip. Good gossip, true or not, spreads fast.
Leave this thread right now, and take your objectivity with you.You guys do realise that this was the console launch announcement right? E3 is where we will see the games line-ups + in-game footage.

A launch event is about setting the tone of a product. The playstation launch event was unashamedly game driven. The xbox launch event was unashamedly home media hub driven.
