He was referring to the headset, MS just announced it today instead.
Are we talking about different lists ? I was referring to the comparison of features list not day 1 price listIf a launch game is included on a "how much will each platform cost you to get going on day 1" list on one side, a non-launch game should also be included on the other side?
Wat?
So am I to understand that the new Kinect basically has the IR blaster attached to it instead of a separate device connected to your console? That means there's no way they're going to remove Kinect from the console as it's setup to go through Kinect for controlling your stuff.
Kinect has one built in and there is also a separate bundled one in case the Kinect setup doesn't work.
Wait, are you saying the micro USB connection will charge rechargable AA batteries while they're in the controller? Are you sure that's how it will work? Does the 360 controller currently operate as a rechargable battery recharger when you use standard rechargable batteries and connect the play and charge cable?
Doubt it. My guess is you'll need the play and Charge battery pack, but who knows.
I think one of the biggest reasons the early Xbox Live community was so much more vibrant (for me at least) than the PSN community was directly related to the fact that everyone had a headset,
Yea that's true. For these headsets though; the sole reason I like the Xbox one is because it'll stay on your head seemingly easier. I'm assuming the sound quality will be the same between the two. Still though, having a headset include in every box for the PS4 will make PSN and friend interactivity so much better. I'm so happy about that.I guess, but looks aren't everything. Dre's Beats look impressive and my Sony earbuds look like shit, but my Sony earbuds sound a lot better than those Beats.
That is how I understand it as well, which is why I don't think there will ever be a SKU which doesn't include Kinect.So am I to understand that the new Kinect basically has the IR blaster attached to it instead of a separate device connected to your console? That means there's no way they're going to remove Kinect from the console as it's setup to go through Kinect for controlling your stuff.

"Also of note, the video's subsequent blog post reveals that Xbox One gamepads recharge using microUSB rather than the proprietary cable used for charging Xbox 360 gamepads. Moreover, when the One's gamepad is plugged in, the internal wireless radio is turned off and it transmits data through the wire (which was not the case with the 360 gamepad)."

I call bullshit saying unlimited cloud storage is a marketing term. Fanboy post right there."Unlimited storage with the cloud" is just a dumb marketing term for an account system. Can use external HDDs MAY be an advantage is has over PS4, but that's another thing we don't know about the PS4 so you can't really mark it as advantageous.
I just can't see how anyone who truly cares about games and the future of the industry could support this console...no matter how much they change. They showed their true colors and started backtracking because they were getting completely decimated in preorders. They don't care about the gamer at all. Sure, you'll have decent exclusives for a while, but then they'll completely abandon that in the end just like they did with 360. I can't support them based on principle alone.
Wow that power brick is massive. Infact everything seems jumbo sized.

Sony fans should have been thanking Microsoft this entire generation then if you can remember what online looked like when PS3 launched.

And they still in here to try selling the PS4
We get it,really.
What do you expect him to say? It's worse than smeared gorillas shit?
Nothing in that statement suggests that the controller acts as a standard AA recharger. It uses micro USB with the play and charge battery pack instead of the proprietary cable they had once used.
Just got a chance to watch this, and I'm liking the aesthetic they have going here. I agree that the Kinect sensor looks big, but at least it matches the system well.
I think one of the biggest reasons the early Xbox Live community was so much more vibrant (for me at least) than the PSN community was directly related to the fact that everyone had a headset, so I found it interesting that they had considered NOT including one this go round. Glad they changed their mind.
Oh ok. Weird. So they're basically giving everyone 2 IR blasters?
You're assuming, is it plausible? Probably not. But we have no info on how it works to mark it as a marketing ploy is premature. Also if not unlimited could be significant.When has any company who claims "unlimited storage" actually provided you truly unlimited storage? I mean unlimited is an impossible thing to achieve so it is absolutely marketing to say that word.
The micro USB cable will charge the batteries if you are using the Xbox One Play & Charge Kit (it will not charge generic rechargeable AA batteries).
On the Xbox Wire website. No recharging of AA batteries with a micro USB cable.
They only allow certain types of files to be stored so it is controllable.When has any company who claims "unlimited storage" actually provided you truly unlimited storage? I mean unlimited is an impossible thing to achieve so it is absolutely marketing to say that word.
Words like "infinite" and "unlimited" means it is never ending which is impossible to achieve, so it's bullshit.

What does that have to do with anything in a comparison between the Xbone and PS4?
Bioshock infinite proves you wrong lol I hope you have played it or this joke is dumb.When has any company who claims "unlimited storage" actually provided you truly unlimited storage? I mean unlimited is an impossible thing to achieve so it is absolutely marketing to say that word.

You know what that means.... you no longer need a wired controller for PC gaming.

Well Console exclusives don`t count on the 360 so I figured it didnt count on the PS4 either.
Your assuming, is it plausible? Probably not. But we have no info on how it works to mark it as a marketing ploy is premature. Also if not unlimited could be significant.
What are the chances they'll release a Kinect-less Bundle that's $100 cheaper?
Maybe it's the price to pay to not have another RRoD fiasco...is it even bigger then the 360 one though...? needed for Kinect...? not sure why the X1 needs one and the PS4 doesn't actually...but the size is no problem for me really...
So right now for Xbox 360 you need a special proprietary cable to charge your controller right? You can insert 2x Eneloop batteries and use the proprietary cable to charge them, but there's no way to use your own solution. With Xbox One you can use a standard non proprietary cable to connect to the Micro USB port in the controller to charge your batteries... am I missing something?
Why dont they count on the Xbox 360?Well Console exclusives don`t count on the 360 so I figured it didnt count on the PS4 either.
