I'll start off by saying i'm a PC/Sony fan. I own an xbox 360, and it was ok for the most part.
But on topic, the xbox one will sell millions of consoles. Why? Because people are idiots. But, when the NEXT xbox after the Xbox One (Xbox 2?) comes out, and the Xbox One servers go down and no one can play their games, people will figure out why the Xbox One was a bad idea.
Like smash bros? You can still play it in 10 years.
Like infamous? You can still play it in 10 years.
Like Halo? Sorry, in 10 years when Microsoft shuts down the xbox one servers you wont be able to play it anymore. And your xbox one will become a brick, and an ugly one at that.
Just hope this turns some people off of the xbox one. |

| The PS4 will most likely outsell it by a huge margin. |

| It is tempting to become a Playstation user, mainly because this is one of the first things Playstation has gotten right, but Xbox is quickly going in to the trash, so, either I'll just buy it to follow Bungie, or I will stick to my 360. Maybe even purchase a PS4 |

| I don't think the One will sell well, but after they discontinue Xbox services for the one, they could release an update to bypass the online check. Microsoft (presumably) isn't stupid. |

I was a Xbox 360 user for this generation, but my friends and I have decided to get the PS4 for this new generation.
It's just better on so many levels.
Free games for both Playstation Plus users and those who aren't, pre-owned games, no online passes, no need for an always on connection, I can use my games on as many consoles as I want, and the indie publishers get more benefits so we can expect more independent games.
The only thing that the Xbox One has going for it is the Halo series, and even that's going to be replaced by Destiny which is available on more than just the Xbox series of consoles.
Plus I was never a fan of Halo anyway.
So my only true disadvantage are the Playstation controllers, but I'll just have to get used to them I guess. |

| When it comes to marketing, Microsoft is king. I mean, look at Windows 8. Everyone said that it was trash, but with the right marketing, it's the best selling OS out there right now. The same will likely be true for the Xbox One. It may not outsell all of its competitors, but it will sell a lot due to Microsoft's marketing. |

@Aqua Don't bring in Windows 8. Windows 8 is not the most selling OS out there. Mac is.
Xbox One has some disadvantages, for example i always go to GameStop for used games, and since they took that off i want to PS4. And if my internet goes out, then the Xbox One is no use for me.
And i can agree that Microsoft is king at selling things to people, for example. Conference "You cannot buy used games on Xbox One" -Audience Claps- "We will be staring at you every time you turn on the Xbox" -Audience Claps-
See what i mean?
So my answer is PS4, if you like halo then you will like killzone.

| As for Xbox One, Microsoft has created such a name for itself, that, even though the specs on the new Xbox aren't all that appealing, people will still buy it just because it says Xbox on the box. |

@xninja
Did you seriously say Mac OSX is the best selling operating system? Windows holds just over 90% of the market share, and windows 8 OEM licenses are selling fast. Don't see how the OS in second place with market share is the best selling. |

Xbox One will of course get sales but it's going to be an epic fail. You can't play without Internet, No used games, No traded games, No selling games (You can use the games you just need to pay a FEE), Slightly less specs than PS4, Always watches you (SlenderMan)

| It won't fail, but I doubt it will outsell the PS4, and I'm not sure if it can even make a profit. |

"You can't play without Internet,"
actually you only have to connect once every 24 hours after you connect to it you have 24 hours of offline play
"No used games, No traded games, No selling games"
actually used games are confirmed, but only with participating retailers

| Yes, but what I am saying is after buying the used game you still have to pay a fee. And when I say "Without Internet" that's what I mean. |

| Guys the xbox one will fail. It only has recognition for ONE person. Plus they are still going to sell xbox360 games for another 10 years so they know the xbox one won't make it. |

Requires the camera plugged in to turn on, it can monitor where your eyes are looking and your heart rate plus see you. Requires internet connection once every 24 hours. Also, it's made by Microsoft which is in compliance with the NSA. Have fun being spied on. |
