So who would you like to bet $5 of your hard earned money on? I will put $5 on M$ and the new Xbox One will kick the ass out of Sony this round. I have seen both machines, but still I'm more excited about the 360. So many more features for not much more price. The Kinect Sensor alone is worth a bundle, and I can see why the price is a little higher.

Xbox 360 won the war but my guess is that Xbox One wont win this time.
Why? Because the decision to cancel DRM restrictions may got a little late, I dont know, the Xbox One is clearly better (has better games, better services and Kinect) but on the first months it will sell less consoles because of all the bad advertisement. Maybe on 2014 it will be different. _________________________________________________________

Isn't it a bit biased to make a question like that on a Xbox site?
But PS4 will get more sales due to it being cheaper.
I don't think alot of people understand how $100 cheaper will help them win. _________________________________________________________ The internet, a place where people expect you to know what they know.

It's $100 dollars cheaper because it doesn't come with a Kinect Sensor with the additional cpu and amazing features. lol _________________________________________________________ HQ Network:

People I know rarely use those amazing features. How often do you use the apps?
Sony hasn't really said what their Eye toy is going to do yet.
And that's my point PS4 doesn't require additional hardware and it is $100 cheaper with a PS4 you can buy a game and still have it under $500

I use them all the time, more than games nowadays.
Yes they did, it's a just a camera that tracks a blue light that is placed on the controller.
I guess they couldnt get the technology _________________________________________________________

What? Microsoft just knocked down their drm policies because they were scared of Sony sales hurting them. _________________________________________________________ The internet, a place where people expect you to know what they know.

The PS3 is good example, it should be faster according to the specs and guess what... It had longer loading times. _________________________________________________________
