Well I think they're going to have to do something drastic, the One could end up selling much worse than the GameCube at this rate going by the result of polls. :o :-\

Unless they impress me at E3 with some top games, I'll be buying a PS4. This GIF sums up my current thoughts:

I love that Gif lol. Gaf has to be the best source for amusing Gifs, the Iwata rising fromgrave one is the best I've seen so far, particularly having Patcher in the background for literally a split second. ;D ;D ;D

You mean I wont be able to play all those imported games that I've never bought for any console in the entire history of my gaming life ??  Damn!

Xbox One breaks pre-order records at Blockbuster - guess not everyone is seeing it as a complete failure.. although have to point out that the X1 could further destroy Blockbusters if some of the rumours about Microsofts policies are true

Can't understand those who are writing the console off at this stage. Nor can I understand those who are pre-ordering.

There's likely around half a year between now and release, and we'll know a LOT more about the console and about it's rival(s) in a few months' time...
Pretend I have a cool signature thing here.
I did, but the host site died and I can't be arsed to find an alternative right now...

Agreed, I will preorder one of them when prices are revealed and obviously we know more about each

Amazon have put a pre-order price for £600 on their website... thats fucking crazy... they do state they have no idea what the price will be - I guess they have learnt their lesson from underpricing the Wii U before official prices were released  ;D

Going on the little we do know - I'd go for £349.99 for X1 at launch.. and £499.99 for PS4


Edit : Theres also been retail listing for Mirrors Edge 2 for the X1 on the Germany/Italian amazon sites - I really (unexpectedly) enjoyed the first one.. so that would be an awesome launch game - and quite possibly an exclusive too.

Edit, Edit : I've actually gone back on my word.. and pre-ordered both consoles at Zavvi for £399.99 for each one - the way I see it.. I've paid no money, I can cancel whichever one I want.. I dont have to worry about missing out by not pre-ordering early and if the price of each console is revealed to be quite a bit more.. I'll get a console on the cheap (Im sure the PS4 will cost more than £400)

Mirror's Edge 2 with Kinect is asking for trouble. Book your hospital bed now ;)

I reckon we'll be looking at £449.99 for both of them. The benefits of only having 8GB of DDR3 and a GPU pushing 1.2GB will be negated by having Kinect 2 bundled imo.

Looks about right, lol.  ;D

I understand they're converting the first Mirror's Edge to Occulus Rift.
Imagine that combined with Kinnect.
At that point, you're making all the movements of a freerunner, and seeing everything they'd see. You might as well turn your console off and start scaling the outside of your house... ;)

I missed this but Rare are apparently releasing a new game from a "historic franchise" at E3 exclusive to the X1.

Banjo-Kazooie ?? Conker ?? Killer Instinct ?? Perfect Dark ??

If its a new Banjo game... that would be a massive + for me.... but Killer Instinct is the front runner because Microsoft tried to renew its license on the name last year.

Now Asda have come out and said they have received more pre-orders for the X1 than any other console... I dont get this.. why are so many people pre-ordering when there have been barely any games shown and no pricing structure revealed?  At least I preordered both consoles and I paid no deposit.. Blockbusters and Asda both require a £20 deposit to pre-order - find it very strange... unless people are that interested in turning their tv into a smart tv.  :-\
