Why they don't use larger HDD for new console ? Most people will copy games to hdd because of lifetime of dvd reader.

Hardrives at launch: Xbox=8 gig, 360=0 or 20, PS4=500 gig. I'd say they're progressing nicely.

I would not think to call it progress until the standard storage size is so large that it ceases to be worth mentioning.

I shouldn't look in T4A right before coming here. I so badly want to tear your post apart but I know it's not nearly the same thing as a ThiefGen post. I'll come back when the red mist rage goes away.

Well just for anyone that is interested, it seems Amazon did a poll to see who would be buying the PS4 or xbox one....the xbox one was DEMOLISHED in the poll and the poll was taken down....before the time they intended to take it down! 7 days early! Yes, it was THAT BAD!
From the article: The PS4 absolutely demolished the Xbox One, with 38,984 votes for the Sony console and just 2162 votes for the Microsoft rival.

Now for those saying it is "no big deal"...it seems you are in the minority...as most people in that poll thought it was a big enough "deal" to make them not want to buy the xbox one.
I do not see the point in taking down the poll....they wanted to know consumers feelings on this and they got it, but everyone should have had the time to post that they originally gave, they should not have not just taken the poll down because one company is getting tromped.
But from the looks of those numbers, it was pretty clear who the winner was.
Anyone buying an xbox one should not complain later on if they find out their kinnect is hacked and spying on them! It is a very real possibility, it happened with video cams hooked up to computers years ago...and that was when the computer and cam were completely powered off! So it is not a far jump to think this cannot happen to kinnect.
But kinnect is only ONE of the problems facing this console, I do not see how even if they wanted to.....(though I doubt Microsoft does)...that Microsoft could change the many things about this console that are ticking off the majority of consumers. But time will tell.
The only way Microsoft will change at this point, is is they are FORCED to change by consumers hitting them where it hurts..in their pocketbooks with low sales figures for the xbox one. But even THEN the kinnect is built into the box, so they would have to design another box and who knows how long a process that would take?

Was that even directed at me?

Yeah, sorry. I had just come from T4A and every post that was even remotely negative or disagreeable just read like the four-alarm screaming that's going on over there. Even if you had said "I don't like oranges" I probably would've wanted to yell at you.

According to someone on my Twitter feed, every post on the XBone facebook feed is full of replies like

And I thought the bashing of the PS3 back in the beginning was bad.
This is on an ENTIRELY new level.
