PS4 is a "gaming console", Sony assures

That is where microsoft failed for me. Focus on the gamers,I mean the whole family and entertainment part is cool but the main market is for gamers.

Idk if you guys know what I mean :o Battling to put it in words.

How is bluray?

Blu-ray is awesome, the image quality is almost crystal clear. You just need a big-ish TV to fully experience it IMO. The nice thing about the blu-ray players is that most have a USB port with a nice PS3 kind of interface that you can easily browse everything you have stored on that memory stick you plug in. It also accepts a wide range of formats.

If you have a 3D TV you can also get a blu-ray player with 3D capabilities for more or less the same price. I got mine last year for around 1.5k , but was a bit of a waste since not many blu-ray movies come with a 3D option ( only one i have is Rio , there are only a few others last time I checked ).

First off, with regards to the Required Internet and Used game issues, I think if they fall too far behind Sony, they will probably change that so they don't loose too much market share. Microsoft seems to be willing to learn these days... Windows 8.1 being in the works to address feedback from Windows 8 being an example.

Other than that though, I actually think Microsoft are making some smart choices here. Except for PS4 exclusives, most games that are on PS4 will probably come to XBox anyway and since the game quality will most likely be about the same, I can understand why they decided to rather focus on the things that makes the XBox different rather than showing the same things from the PS4 launch. With their new system, while they are still attracting gamers, they are now also targeting people who would have never before bought a gaming console. Combine that with Windows 8, the UI that everybody has come to know and love (5 years from now :D), and the possibilities are endless.
Besides Skype, the apps and all the other possibilities, Microsoft could actually change the term "XBox Exclusive" to something like "MS Exclusive" or "Windows Exclusive" and make the games work on on both PC and XBox. If they don't, I'm pretty sure hackers will find a way to make XBox games work on PC.

Anyway, I for one am quite excited for what the next year or two will bring.
