I'll give Microsoft this much: They're currently the ones working hardest to evolve the interface. So if you actually want new gameplay experiences, you're more likely to get them on Xbone.

I haven't see much of them yet, though. Titanfall sure isn't it, where you switch to mech mode and you're playing an FPS but taller. Revolutionary!

Software follow through seems to be the hardest part. Game designers are either stuck in their ways, or their new ideas are being crushed by the suits that write cheques.

Honestly, I feel that Nintendo + PC is enough for me.

PS4 is unessential but could be a nice addition, but for me X1 is totally out of the question.

Xbox one is the only console that allows me to play Halo,and quite simply has alot of money to secure 3rd party exclusivity content like dead rising 3 or Titanfall .
Basically if you love to play this industries biggest blockbuster games you can't go wrong with (Halo,Gears,Cod) and now (Titanfall,Dead Rising 3) even if the later turn up to be timed exclusives the fact that you are getting acess to content first is also very important and so far MS has proven to be very sucessfull with this tactic even sony has followed suite with their timed exclusives indies,wich brings me to PS. If you like to play indies the ps4 looks to be the right choice,and has for the 20 exclusives. I will ask the same question people asked at the xbox one reveal .
What makes you think that all of those aren't kinect games?(Just switch the kinect with move or indies).But since i know the power of sony's 1st party studios even if they closed some ( http://www.examiner.com/article/sony-restructuring-its-first-party-studios ) i will give them the benefit of the doubt.
But right now xbox one is the best console in terms of exclusives as far as i can see.

360 sold 75 million and counting despite many great games sharing a PC version. This tells me that there is GASP......console-only gamers.

From what you are saying, it seems your telling me that PS4 can't stand up to X1 by itself, and that PS4 needs a PC to be competitive.

The way I see it, a XBox1 is all you need because it has Xbox exclusives and Xbox games also on PC. Where as PS4 can't get them and therefore you need a PC to complement it.

not including 3rd party exclusives or "3rd party multiplats not on PS4". Titanfall, Dead Rising 3, that Harmonix game, and a few others. Its well over 20

Its especially useless as their most buzz worthy game at E3 Titanfall will be on the PC and will no doubt turn out to be the superior experience. Even Halo makes it to PC eventually. Though for me that's not worth my time anyways.

Yeah... no you fell for corporate speak. You'll notice MS never said 15 FIRST PARTY games like Sony did. MS is releasing 15 exclusive from ALL parties and Sony is releasing 20 FIRST PARTY. So no Titanfall DR3 and Fantasia or whatever are included in that 15 not added to it.

I was only referencing first party games if you noticed, both systems will have unannounced third party exclusives, although usually they are timed exclusives.  Both consoles will have a fair amount of exclusives, but to imply (as disolitude did) that someone looking for a large quantity of exclusives shouldn't get a PS4 is silly, Sony is known for their high quality first party exclusives, and as I pointed out they already announced that they have more first party exclusives and more new IPs that Micrsoft during the first year.

The official twitter response, dont have it handy, said the 15 were "MS published". Thats 1st and 3rd, but with MS funding them. Titalfall and that Harmonix game are not funded by MS.

But does PS4 have it? Thats the big thing here, is that theres millions who are console only gamers. 360 didn't sell 75+ million because gamers just play its great games on PC....they bought 360/PC games on the 360 in large numbers.

Sounds like your saying the only way PS4 can be competitive is if you have a gaming PC alongside it.
