    Seriously though, I used to be an avid Sony gamer. I don't think it would be that hard to go back to it. Conversion: Complete

    The mindless consumer in me will buy the 360 still. I am not too concerned with being always connected. Even though I have a slow speed my connection never drops.

    No use freaking out over a rumor. Until there is official word, there's no reason to decide anything..

    The always online thing isn't quite what it seems. They want to make the next xbox something you never turn off it will always be on in your house, and when you connect it online you dont have to be at your house to do stuff with it, its more of a "connected experience" with the rest of the windows 8 devices. I think (as there is no official word on it ) is something where you can play your xbox live arcade games and other content (music movies tv, ect) thats on your console through say your surface tablet at work. i think your xbox will become your "could storage device" that also plays games, Microsoft is now focusing on the "entertainment experience" as the gaming side kind of manages its self and console gaming is slowly dying in industry as less and less people want to make console games since the cost of making console games is going up, but the profits they receive are the same (per unit).

    this is all based on what they have said about the new xbox (working with you other devices more) and how they have been promoting the xbox brand lately

    The PS4 has the locking a game to a single console (sony actually owns the copyright to that technology and sells it to whoever wants it pretty cheaply) and your complaining about always online, well the step the PS4 is trying to make (in the future, not currently, it will start normal) it so that all game logic and processing is done on servers the game company host. that way when the tech requirements are 10X what the console can produce they can just upgrade some servers and it will play on the PS4... well that obviously requires internet connection and even worse it requires servers running at all times, a server goes down you can't play your game for potentially days even though you have done nothing wrong.

    well thats just my mouth full, believe what you will.

    I used to be suuuuuch a PS fan. Kingdom Hearts, Jak & Daxter, and Ratchet & Clank are probably three of my top 5 video game series' ever. But Halo being my #1, the 360 controller feeling amazingly more comfortable to me, and (I think) a lower price point got me to switch.

    Now hopefully I won't have to switch back.

    I don't understand the controller thing when it comes to PS.

    I love how stuff like this is coming out before the console is even officially announced.
