I think it's much too early to call who will win next-gen or not. The first XBox was a media powerhouse as well, and it didn't exactly shatter the skies. While this one may have that conversation piece thing going for it, these are things that Sony can achieve as well in time - because seriously, voice recognition isn't something that terribly complex to achieve -, same with user interface. Don't forget consoles mature over time, gaining new functions and shading old.

Who will win will be determined 3-4 years from now, and not even then if this generation is any indication. The Kinect may be huge now and it may keep on being huge, but so was the Wii after all and look at it now.

Save your "Y or X is gonna win" for after you've seen more than an hour of press conference of each device. After all, the PS3 was supposed to be a shoe-in for top dog this generation, no? Markets change, user demands too and all we know is that we'll always want to play games.

Depends on how MS does this TV thing in other countries. In the US it could sell a huge amount because it represents a better value console than its competition since they are advertising it as a box that can do everything. They will probably also have TV deals in the UK and Canada, but in the rest of the world they may face a hard time competing against the PS4. We'll just have to see.

I didnt say they won't.

You were the one to say Xbox will win. I'm simply saying that its too early to call. Both reveals didnt prove to be that great. MS came of worse. Yet you already saying they will win? Whose to say people like the shown features?  US, UK nobody cares....a gamer is a gamer they care primarily about games. And until MS actually expands their market like the Wii did its still competing over the same gamers.

And who is "you guys"? You are delusional because you seem to already declare a winner based on almost nothing.

My viewpoint is clear: neither Sony nor MS have a clear victory based on what we have seen so far. All evidence points to this being a even matchup similar to last gen minus nintendo. To say anything else at this point is delusional imo.

Edit: Second bolded, i did not say it was a bad thing...its just not a good indication of a decisive and clear victory for the next generation. I actually thought this would be obvious to most. Definitely a selling point but not a game changer like the Wii.

Only the uniformed will be supporting this console. The xbox one is anti consumer at it's core. That's their DNA, not games. From talking to my friends over the past few hours about the new xbox, it seems everyone has deiced against it. I may not be a MS fan but at least i bought the 360 last gen, I wont be giving it a second look. Put a fork in it, it's done.

And you can already claim that? That is as far-fetched right now as the 160m PS4 prediction. And calling others delusional? Hypocrisy your name is disolitude.

Its weird nobody is seeing this conference for what it is: Getting the non gaming content and COD stuff out of the way so E3 is extremely game focused. Not to mention the console itself was actually shown, the true meaning of a console reveal :P

I am going to get it instead of the PS4. Nothing will ever replace my Wii U but it will be a pretty sweet 2nd console

No.  What this conference was is Microsoft showing their new device to the world.  You don't introduce a new device by showing off what you consider it's non-essential features.  This is how Microsoft is positioning their console.  This is their sales pitch.  This is how they want the world to see the XBox one.

Stop trying to kid yourself with the notion that Microsoft is going to be focussed on games at E3.  They haven't been focused on games at E3 since 2009.

Why hven't they been focused on games since 2009? Because half of it is spent talking about features......things they just got out of the way. Ever considered a 2 conference approach, one geared towards features and one geared towards games?

This one got the word out to the masses on what it can do. E3 will get the word out to the gamers. Again, its 2 weeks apart. 2 weeks. Seriously. 

No.  That isn't how it works.  You don't reveal a product by "getting things out of the way".  You reveal a product by showing off its most important features.  If they thought gaming was its most important feature, they would have led with that.
