No one is trading in their PS3 to get an Xbox360, no one. MS lost this battle years ago.
As PlayStation customers we know what kind of quality to expect in the near future. MS customers have no clue what the future holds.
So hardcore gaming didn't exist before the nineties? Yea, that sounds about right.
You won't need $50 a year to play it on PlayStation if it were exclusive.
If I were given an Xbox for free I still wouldn't use it because of Xbox Live subscription. Whats stopping people from playing on PlayStation? The controller?
Xbox Live is the X-factor. That's usually the deal breaker for me.
I highly doubt Sony will implement a $50 a year service fee. With that alone they have won me over next gen.
Xbox's fail streak didn't start at the reveal of the Xbox One. They have been slipping for years, we all saw this coming a long time ago.
I'm not a big fan of Xbox controllers, never have been. In my opinion it feels like you are trying to play a game with a thickburger. It also looks like it belongs in a child's toy bin.
I have always liked the sharp edges of PlayStation controllers.

Keep an eye out for Gamestop trade in deals. You can sometimes get double trade value on consoles. Re-flow the board so that it turns on and with double credit you can get $150 for that PS3. Gamestop refurbishes them regardless of condition is what I was told. So nobody loses.
Spongebob Squarepants #1 show 3 years in a row according to Xbox One television ratings, here's Bob with the weather.
Pop this pinata and lets see whats inside.
Just like the 360 if it requires a subscription to Xbox Live to get access to all features I wouldn't use it if it was given to me.
With a PC and PlayStation and the thousands of great games I barely know the Xbox exists. I know it comes off as harsh, but that's how I feel. The only time I came close to considering the purchase of a 360 was when ME1 released. The system had some good games then.
Microsoft still has no clue as to what they are going to do. The more support the Xbox One gets now the less likely it will be able to play used games, among other restrictions.
Using the internet as a temperature gauge is a bad move in my opinion. I believe that is what they are doing.
Not in Japan.
The name Xbox One was quickly derided by Japanese gamers. The English word “one” is pronounced “wan” in Japan, which is the same as the noise a dog makes. So a canine is known as a “wan-wan” or a “wan-chan” – cue a barrage of Japanese-language tweets stuffed with emoticons of cute little puppies.
Puppies, how cute.
Look, the girl doesn't like you anymore. Can't you get that through your greasy head?
They should make it bigger, so you can use it as a TV tray.
Their fans are kinda clueless anyway. They will buy or pass based on what the world tells them. Most of them bought a 360 because of their friends anyway. Out of the 10 or so people I know with an Xbox360, only one of them isn't a follower.
"Microsoft has nothing to prove when it comes to making gamers happy"
Where did this article come from, 2007?
I know what console I'm getting based on previous actions. Microsoft can say what they want, but actions speak louder than words.
To buy a Duo Core Extreme processor from 2007 still will set you back $200-300 today. It was probably close to $1000 for the same processor alone back then, so it should stomp a $500 console.
I actually feel bad for them, no hate here.
Goodbye SOCOM. We had some great times together.
