I am still on the fence on getting either console on launch. I know I will get both eventually because both has games exclusive to the system I like. If I find myself tempted to get one system on launch it probably will be the X1. I am more interested in Ryse and Dead Rising at launch then Killzone and Knack.
Next year Infamous SS is coming out and I am really interested in playing it since I love the series. Titanfall looks like a lot of fun so both are a wash for me.
Depending on how well MS get Kinect voice Nav at launch that might tip the scales for me. I really think moving around a menu with a controller or even using a remote for TV nav is way past the time where something better should be offered. I believe the voice Nav MS is pushing is it.
I know some people have stated it's no big deal, you can save a few seconds but I think they are really missing the point. Usually usability features are things that are not needed or required but once you use them you can never go back to the old way. I believe voice if done right will be just like the remote for the TV. You do not need a remote but how many people see themselves going to the TV or cable box to change a channel.
Also there was an article that MS is looking to take their voice nav to the next level. MS is looking to creating Watson (IBM voice avatar) using MS cloud. The reason I used Watson and not Siri is that Siri is a few tricks put together, Watson is a complete AI that can understand natural speech. If MS can nail this, I believe it would be the killer App for the X1.
