True, but a console can only play games and movies... I use my PC for a hell of a lot more things that a console will never be able to do, your argument is invalid

What argument? You just said you buy expensive PCs with high end processors and graphics cards to, in your words, "max out the games details." Just the two items you listed (CPU and graphics card) total around $900, which is already the price of PS4 and XBO combined.

Yeah, you can do more on a PC, but unless you're rendering meshes in 3DSMax, you can do quite a bit with a sub-$200 parts box.

Actually, gaming is the least I do with my PC...

I entertain myself running benchmarks and overclocking...

A good gaming CPU can cost about 200 bucks... hell... even a $100 AMD APU is more than enoguh for gaming.

I actually don't own an xbox per say but my significant other does. I remember him paying a 40 something for an account(?) and something for the xbox live.

So I'm pretty much somewhat in the shadows about the xbox. lol

As for sharing. Couldn't anyone share their system in the first place? lol

IDK why people worry about system specs. The system that's the weakest will set the bar for every game developer for the next 5 years. They won't exceed them.

You can buy a sub $200 card and outperform the new consoles.

So JUST YOUR GRAPHICS CARD was about as expensive as an entire PS4 plus controller. Just setting some context here.

I'm not jumping on anything this time around, but the die hard xbox fanboys are sticking with their console. Everyone else saw how MS shit all over their feet on this and decided to go with a PS4. Just look at the growth in this poll since E3. XB1 grew by less than 10. PS4 more than doubled.

As for everyone else, there's no more sense in arguing. cmfusion thinks the XB1 is the second coming and has no flaws. He'll be able to buy a game once and magically share it with 10 friends at a time (even though he'll probably have a hard time finding 10 friends who actually doled out $500 for the XB1). He thinks it will grow unicorns and replace his cable box and outperform all the competition while being 30% slower. Oh and let's not forget about the completely awesome Kinect that will magically be useful for more than 2 dancing games, this time around. As for vader, he just needs to stop posting while on drugs lol.

By the way, about that cost, how much is it if you want a PS4 with the PS Camera?

Unfounded? Sounds like someone hasn't gone and read the specs and clearly understand the restrictions. I suggest you go read it again.

If I don't want a kinect what makes you think I want a PS camera either? Hence I'm thankful it's optional and I don't have to eat that cost.

MS OS's get hacked on a daily basis. Hackers hack that's what they do. When I think of a Kinect always on, I think of how hackers hack PC web cams and turn them on without you knowing about it. I don't store my credit card information on a game system, I buy the cards from the store.
