Sports games and racing games should look noticeably better right away since the makers of those games have been mailing in uninspired sequels for the current gen for quite awhile. I'm guessing it will take awhile for everything else to catch up because they will have an emphasis on scope, story and gameplay mechanics.

I never buy a new console at launch anyway. I usually wait 8 months to a year. That way all the bugs with the hardware are worked out and game developers aren't rushing out halfassed games to meet the launch date deadline. Last cycle, both 360 and PS3 launch titles lacked a lot of features that the previous gen's version of the game had.

Agreed, they will launch a few games that look cool and take advantage of the system... but most of the early games suck balls... and it takes 9 months to get a good wave of games made specifically for the console that ARE ACTUALLY GOOD...

Yes but if you bought an early ps3 with 4 USB plugs you would have backwards compatibility and its still worth as much as the day you got it new :)

Kinda cool that you can use your game library on another xbox one console since the games are in the cloud.

I expect they will change it so that you can use the xbox off-line. That's ridiculous.

Since that means you can't sell used games, or use a game among multiple consoles without signing in on each of them, it's going to get them crucified worse than the connectivity requirement.

You would still have to log in to that system and then install the game. What happens if servers go down? What happens if your friends don't have the internet at that moment for some reason. What if they have a shitty internet speed?

Same for me. I'll play NCAA 14 and MADDEN 25 on my Xbox then figure out next year.

I've always been an XBOX guy but I'm done with XBOX. When my current XBOX Live membership expires I will be disconnecting it from my tv. I will be converting to a PS4.
