Looks like it is PC next gen for me.

I don't care for most exclusives anyway, and if I really wanted to care for Halo or Gears they eventually hit PC anyway.

Would rather save some money for the next year or two, buy a beast pc and be good to go for 3-4 years and upgrade when needed.

I was considering getting a Xbox 720 so I can have the option to play some older multi-platform games from the current gen & last gen since the PS4 won't have BC.

But since the xbox 720 won't have BC also, this makes me lean even harder for the PS4.

Looking real scary...I don't want to go back to the Sony Station... but it's looking real bad on this side. Until the thing drops, I will hold back real critiques.
:comeon:What kind of nonsense is this... Why have brand loyalty to a game company that insists on charging for free services and is lacking in the game department and in hardware when put up against it's competitor.

I learned my lesson buying the 360 my dumb ass thought I was missing out on something.

Why would you have to?
Outside of the no used games rumor I have yet to see anything that would make a typical 360 owner choose PS4 over the Durango.

Brand loyalty.

I guarantee you that Xbox could have always online and still be a success. Yea its fukked up that they're cutting off some of their consumers but if someone doesnt have the internet issue then I dont see why they would have a problem.

How are they going to sell 76 million xbox 720's with always on internet? Who are they going to sell it to with PS4, right there as a more powerful system that allows used games and can be played offline. You xbots need a firmware update.

If true, this just cements my want of leaving the xbox brand next gen.

it'll sell out of course, but they about to pull a 2006 Sony for real. word of mouth is already spreading fast with internet much more accessible than it was 7 years ago. At least with the PS3, you know you had to pay for that bluray player/drive. The suits at MS done fell and bumped their heads. 3rd console curse is real in the field.
