    Probably will be around 200W and like the PS3 Phat, it'll use a blower fan design. It'll be quiet enough, but definitely not silent.

    I also think Sony's design will be very, very similar, perhaps even have the same dimensions, because they need to incorporate the same hardware.

    Blue ray is a nice feature.
    Lets hope also that Multichoice get with the times and let us use the console's TV features by making services available.
    Nothing is permitted, everything is true.

    I'm guessing those graphics comparisons are going to be near on pointless this generation.

    the also have the exact same cpu's whats worrying is the xbox 1 is running 3 operating systems and thats probably using alot of ram and instant switching also usually require apps to be loaded in memory , all these backgrounds tasks and os layers are probably going to use 1 or 2 cores and close to 2 gigs of ram atleast imo

    Doubt Multichoice will ever get with the times

    Already have a bluray 3d player so the Xbox one will be a waste

    Hopefully it wont be over-the-top noisy and just a purring sound so you can hear the Tv while playing

    Is'nt the PS4 unified? Not too sure about XBO though.
    ***edit
    Playstaion 4 is a unified 8GB's of GDDR5, I am assuming the XBO (according to sources will have separate 8GB's of RAM?)

    It's not really like there were other options.
