QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Jun 19, 2013 -> 11:55 PM) Ya they definitely havent done themselves any favors. I think a lot of people initially planned on sticking with the next gen console of whatever they currently have until micorsoft dropped the ball at e3. With the news today I think a good amount of xbox gamers who had considered going to ps4 will be rethinking things and likely stay with xbox. Its nice for us as consumers to have the two battling against each other at the same time. Who knows what the price would be or what kind of limitations these systems would have if they werent being released right around the same time. I was one that was already interested in switching and their respective announcements sealed it. My gaming habits have changed since I bought my XB360 -- when I bought it, I was really into Halo and COD and playing online with my friends, who also had XB360. As time has gone on, I have used my XB360 as a device to occasionally play games offline and to stream movies/sports from Netflix, Hulu, HBO Go, MLB.tv, NHL Gamecenter, etc. I really got sick of paying for XBL to pay for these services that I already am paying out the ass for, things start adding up. Pair that with some crazy billing scheduling quirk they have that led me to paying for more than I wanted and I became fed up. Seeing the announcements, I'm assured that I can buy used games on the PS4, not pay for subscription just to stream movies/sports, and I pay $100 less up front. Looks like a winner to me, though it is worth mentioning that I may just quit gaming for now and go with Roku. I have a feeling playing video games may detract from my grad school admissions prep

Nothing will top the red ring of death. Mindblowing that that didn't kill the XB360

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 19, 2013 -> 10:54 PM) f*** me silly. What a hockey game. 1st goal was absolutely awful, 4th goal was bad, outside that, other 3 are fine. Boychuck's wasn't as bad as 1st and 4th...it was a rocket and Oduya down makes it hard to pick that up...black pants as well. 3 game series. Here we go. I saw this as well

First 3 goals are ones I don't expect Crow to stop. The last two were not acceptable
