First things first here. Your post that I was replying to you said "tell me a feature on the Xbox One that we don't already have on the 360" which I did. The purpose for it is a whole different conversation which I'll happily move onto when you admit that I just met your little challenge.

Unless you want to try changing the subject instead, in which case my reply would be "So why do we need to move split screens? Who switches places on their couch while playing games?"

Why don't any of these game reviews talk about Xbox one's lack to play used games and that it has to be online 24/7 to do anything at all

XB1 features
-New Kinect is more advanced than current Kinect and ps eye/move
-Specs are custom and not default or semi custom. The fact that XB1 has custom hardware powering it is great because the power of what is in it is extended past what the hardware originally came as
-Controller is still familiar with changes that make it just that much better
-Advanced interactive system, the use of voice to control the system and not limited by a controller
-Multitasking, it can do more than one thing

"That’s speculation, of course, Sony aren’t talking details just yet. That said, Yoshida has today said that, when asked by GameSpot, activation codes are down to the publisher. “It’s a publisher decision, ” he said, before adding that “we are not talking about it, sorry.” It’s not clear whether this is in reference to the current online pass style system, though." taken from thesixthaxis

Are you sure? The conference didn't show any gameplay, just cinematic trailers. For all we know the closest thing to gaming this can do is watch game trailers.

PS4 games are saved in realtime meaning u can turn off the system in a game and turn it back on right back into that same game at the same spot, PS4 will have livestream chat rooms with jump in jump out single player meaning ppl can take over ur PS4 to help u through a tough spot ect then give back command to you, ps4 will have item messaging meaning if i play the next Elderscrolls game(just for example) i can get and send health potions from or to friends who also play that game,

Microsoft put out an official patch that gives you a classic looking start menu. It was a huge oversight not to include it from the first step when win 8 was released.

[Willasrulz]

You're not entirely wrong. Early in the release of Windows 8 I was having problems with Call of Duty 4, where it kept crashing after 2 minutes every time I loaded it. That problem has since been fixed for me, and I haven't encountered any games I cannot play yet (and I have quite a lot of Steam games). And yes the OS is definitely targeted at tablet users, which annoys me but they are small issues like some text saying "tap" or "swipe" when it should be "clock" or "scroll" respectively,

[AximusNetwork]

being able to save games to the hard drive, the massive amount of servers xbox have (dont know the exact number you can look that up yourself), bluray.

Also take a look at the xbox 360 when it started and look at it now the amount of change is insane and im pretty sure we will see lots of change in xbox one.

"One of the biggest announcements by sony was the ability to share gameplay, one that microsoft was quick to match"
?!? The biggest announcement of sony clearly was their focus on games and developers. One that the Xbox was never to match...

[KevalPrajapatiSS]

I don't understand why everyone is hating on the Xbox one. Microsoft hasn't talked about the one as a video game console yet. Before the event, Microsoft said the event was going to be mostly hardware and the video game stuff will be coming during E3.

[AndrewAttackkk]

on speculations side. it might be possible to video chat inside games without the cost of screen space and possibly lag, and PS4 should also allow for more complex and large games without seeing lots of rendering thanks to their hardware decisions.

We know that the controller itself has L3 & R3, a touchpad, heartbeat sensors, speakers, & Options + Share buttons. Remember, all these are only in the controller, so what about the console itself? And Vita remote play? :o

[jamiekrukowski]

Frankly, both of these are now the pinnacle of gaming. Both have slight pros and cons, but at the end of the day, they're nigh on similar and fit a niche of the same gamers.
Personally, I've always liked Xbox, but having had a PS1, 2 and 3 I'm thoroughly impressed with the advancements the 4 has. Likewise with the One over the 360 and Xbox.
Very much looking forward to the new Xbox, but I'll be interested to have a go on the PS4 to play some of its exclusive games.

[CarlTownsend]

It's kinda because a lot of people see the WiiU as a very late 7th generation console, instead of an early 8th generation console.

[fadetoblack]

Remember when video games were actually fun? I do, it was called NES, SNES, N64, PS1, PS2.

[BudzMcCool]

it depends. gddr5 is tipically able to be clocked at a higher frequency. that said anyone that knows the basic of computing understand that a apu is heavily dependent on the ram. that means that the higher clock speed will significaly be able to process larger frames and higher quality textures than the xbox

[AndrewAttackkk]

Money wise PS4 is just a less pricier option no online fees. no ads (and if their are they will be to a minimum).most of the features come standard. and if u would like to do a subscription u get extra benifits that Xbox doesnt have (free monthly games, 60min full games trials that can be unlocked to be full games that dont need to be restarted) Xbox u would get ads, fees, access to apps ect.

[GinoSoldier]

My point is, well done 3D models are already pretty damn awesomely realistic already. Of course the quality will get better, but later on, how will it matter to the experience we get when we can barely (or not at all) make out the difference at some point? It's like saying you can improve on something that's already near-perfect when you can't even see the difference of said improvement without a microscope.
