Both consoles have strong offerings in my opinion. Both systems will have some truly ground breaking titles on them in the years to come. The initial launch is but a paltry glimpse into the future. I wouldn't hang my hat solely on what the launch titles are.
Yawwwwnnn...
We still looking at resolution and frame rate as a means of evaluating a games worthiness of being played? OK. Have fun rocking that out, I'll be over here playing the crap out everything you deem to be a failure
In sure I'll get crap for this, but yes that's a beauty of a card and I sure would love to say I owned one but this is why I'm not a PC gamer. Speculated to be $600+ for one component. Sure it should be more than capable to handle games at maximum settings for the next few years...3 at most but then it's already time to bump up your specs. This is why I primarily stick to console gaming. In spend $500ish and I don't worry about it for 6+ yrs.

yea. for sure...but this is what? 6...7 weeks early? And right before some pretty key titles for this winter season.
Pretty sure they were already working on Bully 2. A freind of mine was on the original and they immediately began some early work on a sequel so my guess is RDR
It did seem to be far too good to be true.
BAH! That's a pain in the ass. Guess Xbox One goes in the living room instead of the man cave for the time being.
Looks sharp to me.
That would be something of a revelation for Sony and PS owners. Not only would it make their launch lineup potentially more appealing to people but many wouldn't feel as bad about giving up their PS3...It would also bode quite well for a faster roll out of cloud based Backwards compatibility I would think.
No word on what's going down with Xbox One Games with Gold...One can assume it's going to carry over to that but in the interim just XBLArcade/Indie titles.
I'm actually unsure of whether or not, Xbox Live will work across both platforms or if i need a new XBL account for Xbox One because I just renewed and don't have much of an appetite to buy another sub.
This is great news. I just wish they'd make a list of games and let us pick what we wanted from that list. Most of the games they've released thus far I already have.
It's going to be magical =P
In all seriousness, this ad probably went out in final layout to press back in August. WHen I worked retail, we knew most of what we'd be selling around August.
Some pretty sweet scores in there...I bet some launch day sales may even take a hit now because of this leak. Publishers are gonna be PISSED
I think that is like to see this happen but at the same time, I feel like it would be something of a double edged sword when it comes to hacks or mods especially on the part of the PC gamers.
Meh..... No skin off my butt. I personally can't stand racing games so I never would have given it a second look.
That's nicely put sir. Obviously we're from the same generation of gamers
Personally, I'm getting pretty sick of all this jibber jabber about resolution and numbers etc etc... The way I see I it, is if it looks good and plays well, resolution means very little to me whether it's 1080p 60fps, 720p 30fps. I just want good games.
One of my buddies has now decided to wait until Spring for a Next Gen system purely based on this delay. His reasons are he doesn't see anything else on either system that he MUST have at launch so he's going to wait now.
what game the greatest for you of the older, pre-fanboy/resolution hype days? I'm asking because it seems to me that you and I are in around the same age...For me:
Atari 2600: Berserk
Colecovision: Burgertime and Pitfall
NES: Mario 3
Sega: Sonic 2 or MK 2
Those were the good old days when all we cared about was how fun it was and hoping/praying that the next issue of EGM or Nintendo Power had some cheat codes to help us get past so...
