Xbox One is a great console and people are just too stupid to understand how groundbreaking it really is. Everyone is so obsessed with the fact that Xbox One appeals less to 'hardcore gamers' but what people forget is that Xbox One is not just for gamers. That was the entire selling point that gamers around the world overlook yet complained about. A lot of people use thier PS3 as a blu-ray/DVD/CD player, if not their primary one. I did for the longest time until mine stopped playing discs back in January. Xbox One takes that concept of using your game console as a place to not only play games but watch movies too to the next level. PS4 offers nothing new except updated hardware. They still have a blu-ray player built in and their PS4 games still use blu-ray (which is much better than standard discs but somehow a lot of Xbox 360 games still looked better even the ones that were on both consoles). I like the share features built in to the controller itself and the fact that start/select are replaced with just an options button but Xbox ispretty much doing the same thing so it's not so innovative. For those who complained about Kinect having to connected at all times, you are stupid. If you have a Kinect, aren't you going to leave it plugged in all the time anyway so you don't have to keep plugging it in everything time you want to use it? Get over yourselves! The always online thing was a bad idea from the start and I am glad that Microsoft is getting rid of it. The game sharing was difficult to explain but once people did it, they would get it and now that's gone. The cloud is where everything is headed from movies to TV to games and more. That's where the world's technology is heading and people need to get used to it. I love my Xbox 360 and all it has to offer and Xbox One will be a huge step up from that.
P.S. All you idiots complaining about the Xbox One not coming with a headset can kiss my ass. When did the PS3 or Xbox 360 (minus the Elite) ever come with one? Will PS4 come with one? Never and no! The New Kinect isn't like the old one where you had to put it very close to you and away from the TV to eliminate background noise. It petty and stupid and you could buy one for Xbox with a keypad for only $30 and I'm sure the next gen ones will be around the same price.

And these 'hardcore gamers' are the reason why Xbox One will be crap and no one will buy it even though it was so much better than PS4 at the start. People are just too blind and dumb to see where the game industry is headed to make any compromises with how they play and use there consoles and games.
@KimCheeWarriorX square enix is a business and while I agree that they have a history of bullying people who use their stuff, trying to get money for a project based on a copyrighted property without permission is not only wrong but in all intents and purposes illegal. I do like that SE is working with these guys to actually make this thing happen, but I feel that they screwed themselves the minute they put it out in a public and very popular forum like Kickstarter. SE will take their cut of the profits leaving the people involved with this project little or no profit, if not even a loss when all is said and done. Hate to see this happen to people who are just trying to show appreciation for such an awesome game, but when you do that without permission, you get screwed.
This guy is obviously drinking the Sony kool-aid. Thanks to the Vita and other various Sony related money-grubbing comments, I am officially not buying a PS4 (?) or any more games on PS3 that are not exclusive to PS3 (minus the GTA series because they started on PS and I will always have them all on a PS system) and even then, I might just buy them used.
I bought this game on Xbox at first because I didn't have a PC that would play this game even decently but I finally got a good PC and mods is the reason I bought this game on PC and I had no problem paying Bethesda multiple times for this amazing game. Mods are better than DLC in my opinion because you don't have to wait or in most cases even pay for them and they change the game just like DLC. I will be getting Dawnguard for Xbox but not PC and I'm glad it's coming out for Xbox first.
I bought GTA III with my birthday money one year and played it every day when I got home from school and left my PS2 on for a month straight after I got it at one time cuz I didn't have a memory card to save the game and finally convinced my mom to get me one so "my playstation didn't overheat" lol.
