I'm honestly thinking I'll buy a PS4 just to spite MS and the X-Box One.
Plus, the PS actually does get exclusives that don't eventually make their way to the PC.

I'll be holding off on everything. XBone will need to be giving handy-j's before I will buy it with always-on, and PS4 will need to come down at least $150 in price before I take too serious a look at it... unless it is giving blow-j's.
I have only ever bought 1 console as soon as it was released, in my entire life... and that was the WiiU. So I learned my lesson.

"Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid."
I've bought XBox, Wii, Xbox 360, PS3, and PS2 as soon as they were released... and then resold them for profits. 
The Wii, I bought 6 of that season, and kept 1. But yeah, there's no good reason to buy this first season. Wait a year, save $100, or let them get the kinks out.

It's not me, it's someone else.
Saw this is the comments of an article on the PS4 E3 demo...
Goodbye, Xbox! You were like my first girlfriend. New, exciting and sexy. Then you became like my wife. Tyrannical, arrogant and demanding.

MS keeps digging their own grave.
The bit they aren't mentioning there is this:
Anyone who's ever had fun with DVR recording collisions will love this model, I'm sure.
Just like today, a family member can play your copy of Forza Motorsport at a friend’s house. Only now, they will see not just Forza, but all of your shared games. You can always play your games, and any one of your family members can be playing from your shared library at a given time.
The bit they aren't mentioning there is this:
“The only limitation, it seems, is that only one person can be playing the shared copy of a single game at any given time,” Ars Technica reported after speaking with Microsoft Xbox Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer Yusuf Mehdi.

Isn't it funny what a short memory corporations have?
During the last console launches, Sony was the company not listening to the consumers and with the high price point, and their final sales reflected that. Meanwhile, Microsoft was the one playing good guy with an affordable system.

Interesting take.
MS's answer is "use a 360." Then my favourite lie comes up:
Maybe "year to come," but that's about it.
Navy Lt. Scott Metcalf was eagerly awaiting the arrival of the new Xbox One. Now he’s not even sure if he’ll buy one.
...
“With Xbox One you can game offline for up to 24 hours on your primary console, or one hour if you are logged on to a separate console accessing your library. Offline gaming is not possible after these prescribed times until you re-establish a connection,” an Xbox spokesperson tell Military Times.
MS's answer is "use a 360." Then my favourite lie comes up:
“Although we’re very excited about Xbox One, we remain dedicated to Xbox 360 now and for years to come. In fact, we are expecting some of the greatest blockbusters of 2013 and 2014 to come out on Xbox 360.”
Maybe "year to come," but that's about it.

MS just can't stfu.
This is the same dude that said, "We have a product for people who can't access the internet. It's called the XBox 360." He needs a PR handler around him so right before he makes statements like this, the handler can stop him or fire a tranq dart or something.
Specifically, Mattrick said Microsoft is 'over delivering value' against other choices consumers have. When asked to elaborate he said:
"Well, just any modern product these days, you look at it, $499 isn't a ridiculous price point. We're delivering thousands of dollars of value to people so I think they're gonna love it when they use it."

If Microsoft had 10% of the cult appeal of Apple, they would bury Sony and Nintendo in the console biz in every market except Japan. I am completely dumbfounded at the way they've managed to lodge their digital balls into the nut-cracking jaws of defeat in this arena.
