Ok... I know this is from a few days ago, but I just have to weigh in on that one... Why exactly do devs/microsoft/punlishers have no reason to lie about used games? If they completely get rid of used games then people HAVE to buy new, thus putting more money in their pockets. Why exactly would you not have reason to lie if it would mean more money in their pockets, since they're in the business of making money. If they weren't then they wouldn't keep pushing out unfinished games in a year or less to make extra revenue? They would take the time to make sure the finished product is at it's best, not feeling like it still needs finishing.Peps said:
Poll: Who IS buying the Xbox One?

I won't be getting it simply because they way Microsoft has been acting the past 6 months.
They clearly don't want me as their customer so I'll be going to their competitors that actually treats me as a customer, not an obstacle.
The very same day they told me to "deal with it" I placed an order for my Wii U.
When they then decided to give europe the finger for the 1234325th time I decided that it was time to buy a Vita.
Then they decided that it was for the best to not clarify anything at all and just let the shitstorm get as bad as it could get, so I picked up a 3DS.
Now they've decided on a price, so I took the time to place a pre-order for a PS4.

What are the odds that Xbox will get 10 games I want that don't have PC releases? If it does, it will probably hit the 10th around the end of the console's lifecycle.
Wow... someone who was able to state their opinion logically and briefly.Able Seacat said:
I agree with the CliffyB arguments about the topic, but I really respect you for not being one of the "If you buy the XBox One you are ruining gaming." psychopaths.
I won't be buying one.
Just the fact that it has to check in every 24hours or you won't be able to play games does it in for me...
for practical reasons I know that I'm bound to miss one of those damn check-ins and get locked out.
All the other features may be great but for that reason alone I won't be getting it.
(Plus I'd also like to make a stand against that kind of idiotic ideas popping up in the future. To what end I can proudly proclaim I have never, not once, bought a game or console with an 'always on' requirement. (with maybe the exception of Guild Wars 2, the only MMO I've purchaced))
Aside from all that there's also the financial aspect of the matter. I just don't have the money to spend on another console just yet. So I won't be buying a PS4 either. Maybe at a later date...a MUCH later date.

I am thinking about it.
I don't trust Sony based upon past history (Playstation and SOE).
The Wii U looks like something I might be interested in, but I am waiting for a price drop (or new Zelda).
To be honest, chances are I will end buying an Xbox One.
I have am connected to the internet 99.9% of the time and when it's down it has never been for 24 hours.
I always buy new and I don't really swap or trade games.
If I go over someone elses house with a game (very rare), I will always log in.
The lack of backwards capability is seriously my major issue with the system and that's why I won't be getting a PS4.

Not me. I need a system that plays games, plus, there have been a lot of titles out that look great but are only available on the PS3 (Last of Us and Journey for example). So I think I'm going to start drifting towards Sony.
There's quite litterally no one I know that's getting one. Almost everyone I know that wanted one can't have one due to the internet around here being more that slightly spotty. So that's about 10 customers that won't be getting one.
I think a guy I work with is going to get one to see if it's as bad as the rumors say. Said he's gonna get one game play it then disconnect the system for 2 days and try to play the game again. If he can't he said he'll take it back or pawn it.

I've been an xbox fan since the original and still am to this day but as they say all good things must come to an end and Xbone, I'm sorry to say, this looks like the end. The only reason I would even consider getting an Xbone would be for some of the xbox exclusives but at this point I don't even think a new Halo with dragons, ferraris and copious amounts of titties could keep me around. PS4 I hope you dont let me down.
You know, it would have been nice to include a second option for 'No'. I was genuinely interested to see how many people said yes or no...
Their supposed DRM isn't as restrictive as it once seemed, Kinect can be turned off and the ability to digitally share games with friends seems pretty neat.
Besides, it seems to have more exclusives than Sony's box; TitanFall looks like a lot of fun, and I'm a massive Forza fan, and most of the interesting games shown at Sony's conference are multiplatform. So yeah, might give it a chance if it gets enough interesting titles.
