I'd imagine due to cost and time restraints, and especially pressure from the publishers, that they'd just develop for Xbone standards and then wap it over, rather than develop for PS4 and then have to spend resources on down-scaling certain aspects.
    That's one way of looking at it. My main point was that unlike this gen you won't see any ps4 games looking inferior to xbox. However devs may target 1080p 30fps and choose to make it as good as possible on ps4 and just turn off fancy bits on xbox if necessary.

      Updated tally is:

      -28 people buying Playstation 4
      -19 people buying Wii U
      -11 people buying Xbox One

      So many people this gen have mentionee prioritising 360 due to their friends list as one of the reasons for picking it first. If those friends get more scattered across formats in the early days will that contribute to a buying culture that MS might find hard to reverse?

        Definitely an uninteresting launch line up from both parties imo. I was in the running to buy a PS4 this year but I think after games com it can wait until there is something more interesting on it.

        Good news for the massive back catalog I have amassed on my PS3, Wii & 360. Still a few potentially great games to come too!

          Changed my vote from PS4 to none. Looking at the launch line ups there's just nothing there that has me desperate to own any of the systems.

            So many multi platform games and few exclusives don't make for much distinction between the new systems. But it's easy to see these launch lineups have the mass market catered for and that has to be expected.

              Same here. Really interested in all the indie stuff on PS4 but you know what other platform has lots of cool indie stuff? :-) Might get a big 3d monitor for the PC instead.

                Out of all the systems, right now it's looking most likely that it will be a PS4 but it won't be for a long time, definitely not before 2014. I'll be waiting to see what happens. I may well completely skip the whole generation and stick to handhelds.

                  Nothing really stuck out for me out the launch lineups as I am not interested in FPS or racing games. I will hold off until something interesting arrives but out of them all the PS4 looks the likeliest.

                    Nothing sticks out because there is nothing new here.

                    8-16bit - huge rise in detail with sophisticated graphics, sound.

                    16-32bit - leap to 3d.

                    32-128bit - vastly improved 3d, progressive images at high resolution, online, believable worlds.

                    128-HD - Huge resolution increase, better online infrastructure, cinematic quality visuals.

                    Hd-now - more power. Like a graphics card update.

                    Each gen before now has generally had something technically amazing. Some great looking games coming though.

                      Right now neither of the systems have a great deal that I couldn't play on my PS360, but given the choice I'd rather play the shiner version.
                      The promise of Halo further down the line and my overall familiarity with 360 makes the Xbox one an easy choice as the first machine I buy.

                      I'm thinking the Combo of Ps4/One will really leave my PC gathering dust, as it's exclusively indie games I play on it

                        My PS4 order is now locked in, Nov29th booked off work ( tho that is more to do with avoiding any trouble with the courier than for hype reasons)

                        Yes there is nothing new but I would be playing the same games on my current consoles anyway. Money is not a problem so the added SHINY is enough for me.

                          Happy with my PC+Nintendo (3DS XL/Wii U) combination.

                          Sony/MS can spin all the PR bull**** they want, but the PS4/X1 do absolutely nothing for me. I'm just not excited for them. All Sony/MS have got going for the PS4/X1 (and their consoles in general) are few exclusives. That's it. And even then, it's not enough for me to blow ?350/400 on their systems.

                          That ?750 for both systems (and that's minus games, peripherals, PSN/XBL subscriptions) i'd rather spend elsewhere.

                          The PC+Nintendo combination offers much, much more for me personally.

                            Xbox One, we'll see. I've said no up until now but it depends on launch day, must have exclusives.

                            And whether or not I get a free one from work.
                            Well, just got shot of my WiiU so will be solely PS4 next gen.

                              Will be really interesteing to see just how many people start trading in their Wii U to help pay for Xbone/PS4. I'm still undecided if I'm going to keep mine but I'm swaying towards selling before price gets lower.

                                PC and WiiU for me. Not one single game has been announced for the PS4 yet that I'm interested in, as opposed to each month coming with a solid WiiU release that's surely going to leave me with a backlog as I'm buying stuff whilst playing TW101 permanently.
