    They did what Sony should have done. So ... do you have your pre-order in?

    The Forza race wheel had better be compatable. :x
    I suspect it will work, but you never know!

    No pre-order, I will only be going with an Xbox this gen (probably, never say never) but not for a bit.

    Doesn't seem so bad. I think someone's just a Sony guy.

    I'm very excited by the collaboration with Speilberg and Halo. I can't wait to see that and eventually play Halo 5 on Xbox One. :)

    It looks to be about the same size as the 360. The kinect stands out more giving it a Johnny 5 jive.

    I'm not one who cares what a console actually looks like, but that new xbox seems huge.
    Have they mentioned the hardware/specs yet?

    From Joystiq:

    The Xbox One will include a Blu-ray drive as well as a 500 GB hard drive, Microsoft's Mark Whitten revealed at today's next-gen Xbox reveal event. The system will feature 8 GB of system memory, USB 3.0 ports, an 8-core CPU, 64-bit architecture, built-in Wi-Fi and HDMI in/out ports. Whitten also noted that the Xbox One's architecture uses three operating systems.

    Nope, saving something for E3 I guess. Release date is "this year".

    Hopefully Sony and Microsoft will cut each others neck in pricing. Most likely not, but it would be nice.

    I think it would make sense to sell them at a loss as the digital market place is where the profit is.

    No, that thing looks huge.

    You seem like an Xbox fanboy.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    It is indeed my preference, takes one to know one I guess.

    I heard good things about their price points a while ago but that was just rumour probably. It would be nice though.

    I have both, like both, but that thing is a monstrousity for "next gen". These things are supposed to be getting smaller

    Yeah, if the price is right, I'll probably end up getting both.
    The PS4 is pretty much guaranteed though...

    The multitasking abilities of this system have accomplished one of the Back to the Future 2 goals ...
