Very promising machine. We will see how it pans out with more details in the future. I will wait a till the following year to buy one, but it is nice to finally see these new consoles being introduced.

All I want to know is price. Is it gonna be $300 or are they going to rape us?

I'm not sure if I'm gonna more on to the next generation or not. I barely have time for all the games I have piled up unopened already. I guess it all depends on what comes out.

I watched the video from the unveiling conference Wednesday. It definitely looks promising. If they keep they're promises on what it will be able to do, then I think it has a real potential to be a winner.

My major concern is security over Sony's Cloud Service that it will be connecting to and hopefully the cost isn't going to be as high as the PS3 was when it first came out.

Now we just need to hear from Microsoft and what their plan is for the next generation.

I'm thinking about making it a day 1 purchase as well. I'll decide once more info becomes available and what launch titles will be coming out. If Watch Dogs is among that list, then it will definitely be a day 1 purchase!

Hopefully they aren't junk like the rest of the PS's. I made a very comfortable side business repairing the PS3.

Several Japanese rumor sites say that there will be 2 different models available at launch. One is rumored to range between $450-$499 and the other is rumored to range between $550-$599. They got the rumors right on the PS3 so I wouldn't be surprised if they are right this time.

I love this part of that link.

The hardware and services of the PS4 and Xbox 720 will likely continue to compete neck to neck, distinguishing themselves only through minor differences.
A few months ago, a couple developers leaked out some specs of both the PS4 and the Xbox 720. At first they was just taken as rumors but after the press conference by Sony it was shown that these "rumors" about the PS4 hardware was actually true. If these same sources are also correct about the hardware of the Xbox 720, then the hardware of the Xbox will be quite inferior to the PS4 and the performance differences between the two systems will be quite noticeable. Especially if Microsoft continues with their plan on installing Windows 8 on the Xbox and allocating half of the consoles ram to only being able to be used by the operating system. This would only allow the Xbox to have 4 gigs of DDR3 ram for games vs PS4's 8 gigs of GDDR5 (which is superior type of ram to start with).
