Okay so lets recap, as a Sony fan you do not see any incentive to buy an Xbox One?
I see... Anyway, I can list them but you will certainly ignore them or just say that these are no incentive to you (which will not be surprising :))

- Titanfall, Halo, Forza, DeadRizing 3, Project Spark, Killer Instinct, Garden Warface, PvZ2, etc...
- DLC first for many games
- Majority of good game coming to PS4 (and presented by Sony during E3 are coming to Xbox One too) : Destiny, Final Fantasy 14, Diablo 3, etc...
- Xbox Live
- Cloud computing (more scalability, and Sony have like no clue how to do that right now Google, Amazon and Microsoft knows how). Well on that side Sony may actually use Azure or Amazon S3 to do that. (and please do not compare this to Gaikai).
- Kinect 2
- The controller
- HDMI in
- SmartGlass with my existing devices (no need to buy a useless Vita just to do that)

As far as the hardware, the difference is negligible (like few devs already said even it the "internet" believe otherwise) and it has been proven with the PS3 that it does not really matter.


the 360 accomplishes almost all of that already. what new innovations has MS brought to the table this gen? they threw it all out the window. All they have is cloud, which apparently wont be good as requiring internet in this day and age is deal breaker for people. so what makes it different from the 360? HDMI in and cloud. Not enough anymore.

Hum... So what? The PS4 is innovative in what area exactly? The PS3 was doing everything the PS4 is doing...
Kinect2, the Cloud and HDMI in are new addition, like it or not.
And these exclusives are just playable on Xbox One.

I'm not sure what was the point of your reply :)


PS4 isn't innovative either. only the Wii U this gen has been. I replied because the incentives you listed aren't really incentives. if they can be gotten elsware there is no incentive to get the xbox one. it requires exclusive features. There is nothing different from it to the xbox 360 or ps3/ps4. Exlusive games is the only reason, same can be said for any system. its just the same as all the other boxes out there now. The 360 was leading the way in the mUltiplayer area and online, it gave incentive to buy that console over the others (not to mention price). What is there now? Kinect 2 isnt innovative, its the same as before just more powerful (which is great as i love my kinect) hdmi in offers some great tv function ality, but with the apps on the 360 i get a very similar experience. Its not innovative, just he same course the xbox 360 was already heading. So really it just the cloud, which requires internet, apparently thats a bad thing. If you cant be bothered to have a console check in 1 every day, how will you take advantage of the cloud. If you are going to take advantage of the clud and have your box on the net, why not have all the awesome digital features? by splitting it up they wont be able to get a price advantage on digital sales like steam has done. its going to be another gen just ike this one. where is the fun in that?
