1. Good thing for me. It will have lots of social features dependent on this.

2. Doesn't affect me as long as a sharing system is implemented. If I can't go over to a friends house and play my games with him on his XBOX, I'll be upset.

3. And the PS4 is weaker than a $5,000 gaming computer. Power isn't that important.

4. I'll have to wait and see. If Kinect is large then this could be a problem. Kinda similar to external power blocks, it could be annoying. Otherwise it's like complaining XBOX needs to be hooked up to TV.

5. I hate having to pay for LIVE. It's a pretty shady business strategy and I hope things are modified. Maybe give Silver members online play? Maybe sell the console at a super cheap price.


2. In others words you're saying the PS4 feature is already a selling point for you.

3. Power is very important, or not exactly "raw" power but hardware architecture. Because of "power" the PS3 couldn't copy "party voice chat" while in-game and many third-party developers had trouble porting their games. Let's say the 720 is similar enough to the PS4 to allow very good ports, but because of some hardware limitations you can't do some very cool feature(s) the PS4 allows you to do while gaming. That could put off some people.

4. Well, if Kinect is mandatory the problem wouldn't be its size, but rather the placement. Most people can't be bothered to be placed in a determined spot to play their games or even navigate the dashboard. 

5. I think all the worthwhile features will be tied to Live, including online play, but this time it'll be actually worth it.
