We know nothing about the ps4/720 and you're ready to "jump ships"? How does that makes any sense? Better yet, how about you buy both systems next gen. Problem solved. limpbizkit818

Sorry, I don't have $1000-$1500 to throw around...

Hmm, there are 5 Kinect games MS exclusively focused on and only around 3 have sold extremely well or around that. Most not rated high. There are about maybe 20 kinect games and that's a random guess. But Crackdown, Crackdown 2, Fable 3, Alan Wake, Chromehounds, Halo 4, Halo3, Gears 1, Gears 2, Forza 2, Odst, Saints row, kasui, Death smiles, Death smiles 2, Forza 4, Fable 2, PDZ, Nuts and bolts, Kameo, Ryse, Project drago, Steel batallion, Forza 3, gears 3, Culcept Saga, Splosion man, Bllue Dragon, Eternal Sonata (Timed), lost odyssey, Halo Wars, Forza horizon, Haunt, 2 naruto games if i recall, 3 arcade complilations, one combination box that comes with trials, limbo, and splosion man, trials, trials evolution, Raiden IV, The Outfit, Ridge Racer 6, Too Human, Project Gothma 2 and 3 etc. etc. That's just off the top of my head and that's not even all of them, including REATIL and XBLA. Yes, you can count them on your hand. Right. Shut up. They abandoned Xbox users? With an add-on not even 20% of the Xbox library? The problem is not that, you own a 360? Hard to believe, because it's not because there's nothing to play it;s because you really don;t care about games. Not on the Magazine? Guess Zombie killer won;t buy it. Must be rated high on one site with a G on it? Also on said site must have 9.0 or higher? Below? Zombie killer won't play it. Talk about games you like but other people don;t like it as much or it's not popular? Zombiekiller does not counts it as the game. When you actually play games let me know and come back to me.Another48h0urs

I said in my previous posts that xbox used to be the place to go for exclusive games, but you can't say that anymore. I still love Halo but it's overdone, I was done with Gears after 2, and Fable is a joke now. Even Forza has gone from a hardcore racing simulation to an arcade game. The only thing other than Halo that I was interested in from MS at e3 was Matter, and they didn't really even show anything about it. Meanwhile Sony and Nintendo are showing new exclusive IP's, not just rehashes of series that have already been done to death. If they just continue to push sequel after sequel and continue to reward their devs for more of the same rather than innovation then I will not be buying their next console, and I'm sure that there are a lot more like me.

It just seems like MS fixates on industry leaders and attempts to copy them. They copied Nintendo on the causal, motion controlled games and now it seems like they're trying to copy apple (or maybe nintendo again) with the whole smart glass thing. They've added so many apps that their average customer will never use, because most people buy a console to play games. Sure, netflix and a bunch of the other apps are nice, but my TV and blu-ray player also have many of the same apps with better functionality. It's just sad that they don't realize that they got their lead over PS3 because early on, xbox 360 is where the games were. Now PS3 has closed the gap significantly, and if MS continues this way I think they'll find themselves back in third place in the next generation.

Sony and Nintendo both have media on their consoles too.

Yeah, but they're both pushing first party exclusive games, and MS really isn't. I mean, what's the last new IP that MS released? It's probably Gears of War or Alan Wake. There is nothing new from MS, just the same game with a bigger number at the end of the title.

I've been wondering this for a while now. I think they've probably lost me, but do other people feel the same? They've completely abandoned first party exclusives, the very thing that made them the leader in this generation of consoles, to focus on gimmicky kinect and dashboard apps; things that I am not interested in at all. Why do I need ESPN on my xbox when I can just change my tv's input and watch it there? Most of the apps that they've put out are availiable on a plethora of other devices with better functionality. And while it showed promise, it's pretty obvious that kinect has just been turned into a gimmick. There are still only 3-4 good games for it and while kinect functionality in Mass Effect and Skyrim is kinda neat it really doesn't add anything that couldn't already be accomplished by a simple button press. Now at this E3 we see nothing new from MS. Sure, Halo 4 looks cool but it's the 4th Halo shooter on the Xbox 360. Same with the new Gears. So unless MS really shows me something before the launch of the next xbox, I'll probably be migrating to the next sony console. How do you all feel? Will you stay loyal to MS for the next console generation?

I would have much preferred feudal Japan as a setting. I hope Ubisoft at least got Mel Gibson to reprise his role in The Patriot: The Videogame...

Male Shep. I started following the original Mass Effect so long before it's release and every screenshot and trailer featured the default male Shepard. By the time the game came out, I was so used to that appearance that I had to use it.

Those definitely look interesting...Plus it says they're 2.4/5 dual band, so I shouldn't have any issues with interference. I think I might just wait. Thanks for the info.

I'm considering getting some headphones for my xbox, and the X41's seem pretty good. The only thing that worries me is that I have a soundbar with a wireless sub, and this wireless sub interfered with all of my other wireless devices in the room operating on the 2.4GHz band. Since I have a dual-band router, I simply changed all my devices over to the 5GHz band and that solved the issue. However, from what I've read the X41's transmit the sound via 2.4GHz wireless digital RF. Does this mean that my wireless sub will also probably interfere with this headset?

You just have to be patient. Hang back and take out the collosus from a safe distance so you can easily avoid their attacks.
