I LOVE GIGGS said:
- Kinect is mandatory: the fact that everyone will own the souped up motion controller means it might finally be able to reach its full potential.
- The controller is king: Xbox controller is arguably one of the best ever.
- Innovation: Although it's now canned, the DRM meant that discs weren't needed after the initial install and all your games could be played on another Xbox. Not only that but the (also defunct) Family Share feature would have slashed costs for households and allowed you to nominate 10 "family members" to access your library. It shows, at least, that Microsoft is trying to innovate and drag us into the digital era.
- HDMI In: Watching the televised football while hacking zombies to death would be great.
- Xbox Live still trumps PS+: PlayStation Plus is now mandatory to play online so the whole argument about the exorbitant cost of Live has been watered down somewhat.
- The games look great: Sony's exclusives didn't show such a great leap forward from current gen titles for me.
Xbox and PlayStation owners can rest assured, however, that whichever system they opt for, this generation is shaping up nicely. For me, it's the Xbone that's going to be first out the box - purely because its promise and potential seems far greater. The PS4 can wait.

1; The full potential of a piece of crap is crap. No getting around it.
2; PS4 controler has been dramatically improved since that last.
3;They don't derverse props for trying to implement unpopular policy and then cowering away from them.
4: So does the PS4.
5: PS+ has been offering a better deal then Xbox Live for months now. It's Xbox One's turn to catch up.
6: What game's look great exclusively for them. Ryse? A generic quick time event piece of crap?
Also enjoy the Xbox One turning out like the Xbox 360 where they just gave up trying years ago to provide cool exclusives.
