I'm going with the Xbox One. Have always liked the Xbox over the PS and don't see anyting about the PS4 that makes me want to switch.

I'll have to do some research but i am definately an xbox fanboi. Maybe i'll get both.
Sad part is no one is talking about Nintendo, their days are numbered unfortunately
I like all video game systems, not a fanboy of any (though my all time favorite is still the SNES) but I don't understand the move by Microsoft on this one. I know its hard to recoup the costs of a new system which is why they try and drag their life cycle out to nearly a decade, but they really shot themselves in the foot with the used game thing. Even the best games on the XBox got real old real quick and not everyone can afford to plop down $60 for something that they truly do not own. Their was not a big pirating problem with Xbox (the emulators can't even crack them properly). I would be more behind this if the software dropped in price, and legacy titles like Madden would be available for a $10 upgrade fee every new season instead of having to buy a whole new game with a few minor gameplay and roster tweaks. I think I'm bowing out of this console generation until I see how it shakes out, plus the developers always take a few years at least to truly tackle the processing power and playability of the games.
Nintendo? they still make those?
The Wii just NEVER came out with games that made people want to play very often. Sure golf was alright, but most of the games were Sooooo kiddish. Now that the xbox has the Kinetic, and PS has their dildo shaped controller thing, the Wii doesn't really offer anything "different."

Intellivision, NES, SNES, Playstation, PS2, Gamecube, XBOX 360... those are the systems I have owned (not counting handhelds). Right now I am happy playing games on my Mac/PC until this new console generation gets its act together. I keep thinking of the early days of PS2 and Xbox 360 and there were only a handful of titles the first few years that I really enjoyed.
Thats the thing I miss is the console rivalry. I remember the Genesis blowing Nintendo out of the water on Mortal Kombat sales because even though it was on both consoles the Genesis version had blood. The whole Mario vs Sonic thing seems so trite now... I think they even have Sonic games on the Nintendo! Outside of Gears of War, God of War, and Halo, I can't think of many console exclusives that would sway me either way right now. I am looking forward to seeing how the PS4 and XBOX One look though!
I'm strictly a sports gamer, and play mostly four titles, Madden, NCAA, Tiger Woods and MLB2K.
Right now, I'm worried about the future of MLB's rights. If they give exclusive rights to The Show, and 2K bows out of the baseball gaming, I may switch. I don't want to at all, I've been an XBox guy since the minute I played one (had a PS1 at one point), but if one of the four titles I like to play isn't available...
Don't know. I love being able to hand my kid the Wii U gamepad and throw on netflix when we are watching something adult on the TV. Or being able to play a full console game on the Wii U pad. Still waiting for better game though. Finally...
PS4 Forever, XBox One Never. Don't like the fact that I cannot dissconect the Kinect from the console and the thought that Movies and things viewed with the XBox can be charged to you on a per viewer rate.
I have recently upgraded my computer, and have a MAJOR gaming machine. Games ARE better on computers, and I plan on buying more of the games for the PC rather than platforms. But the platforms are going to be a part of our every day life as much as cell phones and TVs are, today. They will be our entire entertainment center, whether that's getting your TV subscriptions through, streaming movies, gaming, DVDs, or music. They will be our link to the social networks, and will eventually be where we make face-to-face phone calls, control the lighting and security systems of our house, and order groceries.
PLUS... Illumiroom for the Xbox system looks to be a reason to be an XBOX fan :

That was just a conjectured guess and rumor and has has no facts behind that rumor. That was just a writer saying what COULD happen considering the ability of the kinect to be so precise in counting people. But I just don't see that happening at all, since there are DVD players everywhere that can play the movie.

So you're saying that Microsoft didn't actually file a patent to do this, as illustrated in this link:
