And I'm far from a fanboy...liked the 360 way better than the PS3 for a large part of this gen...the PS4 is completely in a different stratosphere though, it's amazing Sony hasn't ****ed this up and got everything right this time around.

The UI is sleek, fast, and easy to navigate...the list of exclusives already announced and you know will be coming is just awesome...Playstation Plus is the best value in gaming, for instance at launch with PS + you got several free games plus $10 of PSN cash free when buying a PS4 (which I used on Flower) so before you even buy any games you already have 4-5 which is CRAZY...I can't believe how much I underestimated how fun and awesome watching AND streaming games is, something I can't believe MS has fumbled on and won't have until 2014.

Also an underlying feature that really no one is talking about is the fact that now you can plug in practically any headset into the DS4 and route all audio though them which is GENIUS especially for someone like me that has my console in my bedroom and new baby and wife that likes to go to bed early...so convenient.

Finally I also love that from the beginning Sony hasn't wavered on their vision and what they want the PS4 and PS ecosystem to become...and that's for gamers first. MS' vision has been filled with confusion, backtracking, and quite honestly ridiculous ideals and policies that thankfully have been done away with...it's been a mess.

I'm sure at one point I'll own the XBO and probably soon (for TitanFall) but right now, it's clear to me who is starting this gen running ahead.
I found that awesome. One of the things I really appreciate that Sony does is how they don't make everything proprietary. You want a bigger HDD, sure just pop one in there. You want to use any headset you want? Go for it.
