during the time I posted that it wasn't confirmed. Also I doubt Microsoft is doing this for the costumes otherwise they would have treated them better from the beginning. Also I won't be getting this console just because they got rid of bad things doesn't give enough good to buy it.

Sorry bout that, was quite tired when I posted it... And you speak the truth, they "did it for the consumers" because they wouldn't get many sales otherwise. Really the only thing they had going for them was the idea for family sharing, and they're taking it away because they're bad.

Ah, M$... Still not good enough. You still have to wonder, are they actually listening to consumers, or just hiding in the shadows to release anguish to buyers at a later date.

It's not confirmed yet. Even if it do I have to remind you the huge price and that most of its games are just sports and call of duty

I'm pretty sure its confirmed, since its on the news portion of xbox.com.

People can't actually hack your Kinect, right? That seems to be a worry among some people, since there are worries that people can hack webcams and stuff.

Well it is definitely possible to do, though it might be ridiculously improbable.

I don't know much about the PS3, but Xbox 360 supports a small external drive, I don't remember the limit, but my brother uses a 16GB pendrive. I do remember the maximum were really small, and I couldn't use my external HD on it.

Yeah, Its been too long since I cared about storage on my 360. They do support usb HDDs, but only up to 32GB. Ps3 on the other hand seems to properly support them.

I'm actually quite delighted that I still have my disc of Catz 5. Every few years, I decide I want to play it again, but I have a new computer, so I just dig up the disc, put it in, install, and play. Though I suppose with Steam, if I got a new computer, all I'd have to do is install Steam on it.

Here's one thing...
Xbox One and PS4 = Same size harddrive
Xbox One = Saving the entire file of the game itself on the harddrive so you no longer need to put a disc in to play it
PS4 = Doesn't do that
And as a side note: PC = Can have 1TB, 2TB, etc. harddrive

That's actually another thing. Downloading an entire game onto a PC isn't as big of a deal because people generally tend to have a pretty large amount of harddrive space on their gaming computers.

Well I don't know for certain, but I'd say ps4 can do the same as ps3; it has a 2.5"(laptop) HDD bay so can be swapped with any 2.5" sata hard drive. In fact, the ps3 does support up to at least a 2TB hard drive. The only downside may be the available bandwidth, though they're probably going with SATA 6Gb/s. My guess for the xbox one is that it'll have proprietary storage, and cost significantly more. And have they stated the ps4 won't allow for game installation? It is a nice option to have. Unless of course any of this stuff as been confirmed otherwise.

Though they will both probably support external drives, since I believe both ps3 and 360 do.

Well if it is possible, I would appreciate a fix. Kind of paranoid with my posts sometimes.

I found a positive thing about XBox One!!!

In addition, Microsoft has revealed that up to ten players in your "family" can have access to your shared library of games from any console, and you'll be able to access your full library of games and play them from any connected Xbox One.

Link to entire article.
http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2013/06/06/xbox-one-game-sharing-used-game-policy-detailed.aspx

Not positive.
So what if ten people of your family could play?It's very rare for TWO family members to play video games. Also even if someone has a family of ten gamers it's still not a positive. Just because it was something worse , and they turned it less so doesn't make it good. Before we knew that we couldn't lend games , but now we know we can only lend to 10 people on the same console. So just because it's a tiny , and unnoticable slightly remove of a negative does not make it a positive.

Never in my life will I consider this console. The wii-U is superior anyway.

It allows you to share you're library with 9 others(or is the 10 not including you?) so long as they are in your "family". So you can also share all your games with your closest friends if only you or a single sibling play games, though restricting some simultaneous play. I think its two can play the same single player game, but I think multiplayer is completely denied simul-play aside from splitscreen.

So 10 people have access a game library where each game was payed for once, instead of 10 times. Its actually pretty good, but its certainly not enticing me to buy.

He is entertaining. It sucks that he has attracted a large amount of fanboys. Just like everything else in the world, his stuff isn't for everyone. I'll admit though, he can get annoying sometimes, and I completely understand why some people hate his videos.

But in seriousness, has Microsoft addressed any of this hillarious negativity yet?

Kind of.  We now know for certain M$ doesn't want "peasants" to own an xbox one; If you don't have access to the internet, get an xbox 360! They're really doing a terrible job of marketing it to those who aren't fanatical fanboys.

If there are more servers, it might help people who have trouble with lag, right? If so I think it could be a good thing Still it's one of those "we'll have to wait and see" things I'm sure

It could if they have servers in different locations around the world. Sadly, I can't remember if they did for the stress test. Though if the individual servers couldn't handle the number of players they're set hold, more servers wouldn't help unless players changed to lower populated servers, or the servers were set to hold less.

I think its safe to assume it'll be the same as last time. I don't see why it matters though.

Not necessarily. It's possible we'll have fewer servers this time for a couple reasons. Then again, two servers were brought up just before Canterlot Gardens and it was a complete surprise to me. Only time will tell.

Even so, I don't understand why it would matter in the current situation, aside from the possibility of flooding the servers. I didn't play much during the stress test, so I don't know if there were any player overload issues.

I'm not sure why no one has asked this so I guess I'll ask.

What servers will be available to play on?

Or will the servers be the same as last time?

I think its safe to assume it'll be the same as last time. I don't see why it matters though.

Well, so the Ps4 is cheaper than the xbox one, free to play online, and you actually get to own what you buy.
So... Now It's just down to Nintendo's press conference to determine weather I get a ps4 or a WiiU c:

You'll need to pay for ps+ to play online multiplayer on ps4. If you think about it, its not that bad; ps+ gives bonuses unlike xbl gold, and I believe is only required for online multiplayer, so you should still have access to all other features, like netflix.

Well, here I was hoping that the ps4 would actually look nice. Its a CABLE BOX!  Not saying that the console itself is bad, just the case.

Now to wait for nintendo's stuff tomorrow and the day after.

Looking forward to this, though I just hope it runs better than last time! 8 fps is enough to drive a pony insane Especially when they can easily notice a drop from 60 to 55 fps.

Joking aside, it should be a fun weekend!

Also, where can I download more RAM legends of equestria?

Fallout 4, I can't wait to wander through another piece of Post Apocalyptic American Wasteland . The new Super Smash Bros game would be awesome as well, especially the 3DS version.

HERP DERP! How could I forget about FO4?! Yeah, I'd love to see it announced. I hope it'll be released late 2014 a the earliest. They'll need a good bit of time to make it optimal for 8th gen consoles, so they have less of an impact on the PC version. Though I'd also love to see it in my hands as soon as possible.

Honestly I'm not caring about it as much as I have the past 2 years. Nintendo's split between this and nintendo direct and thus so is my interest, then with sony and M$, I only wonder if they'll derp another conference. The only other thing I care about is if bungie will say if destiny will be ported to PC... I'll have to miss out on it if it doesn't. Ah yes, then there's watch_dogs. Another game I am interested in.

I'll probably just what some highlight videos post e3, instead of watching it live.

Hope Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty Land better not be a Nuts and Bolts game, mini game only, or Kinect game.

I've lost all hope for the bear and bird to make a proper come back...
