If you say so...just wait for the price drop.

Pre-orders do mean nothing, public opinion matters though...

How is it the same as ps4?

I'm sure they won't disappoint me. I look forward to their showing.

Even if the games were good the OP would still be bitching about them.

lol you know full well the casual, core, navigational, and communicational benefits of kinect 2.0. Most rational gamers that aren't bound by loyalties and biases know this.....its more about whether or not they see themselves using it often enough to warrant the $100.

Not buying a X1 until 2015 anyway. Not the early adopting type.But at this rate MS just keeps surprising me for the better.

Anyway, I used to go the GamesCom when it was the GamesConvention in Leipzig.

It was very crowded back then, but it is just a overkill in cologne.

Here are some impressions from last years GamesCom:

7 hours waiting line for 10 minutes of assassin's creed 3 anyone?

That picture was taken 15 minutes after the GamesCom opened its doors.

3 hours for Diablo III?

6 hours for Battlefield 3?

3 hours for Far Cry 3?

4 hours for Starcraft 2?

right before the gamescom opens its doors.

This is just not fun. Think about PS4 / Xbox One games... prepare to wait even more!

Acutally, yeah. Preorder number don't mean much and the public opinion can't be found online.

what success?? the few Ks more they have in pre order??? what influence??? the big nothing beside hardware???

if someone got influenced really it's Sony, by putting more and better ram than plan because they got wind of MS plans... and a big nothing new because they saw what happened to MS... last time I checked their DRM policy is still wide open for 3rd parties... Sony played it safe when they saw what MS did... MS just answered to customer feedback like they said they would do from the begining... they haven't done much like Sony... but who am I kidding... argueing here is worthless lately... the best I can get is a ban anyway....
