Ok, now we have appx release dates for both the new XB1 and PS4, anyone buying on release day or playing it cool so to speak and waiting until after Christmas for the sales.

Which platform will you go for? You pay to play on Xbox 'live' but you do get better anti hacker protection than Sony network

PS4 thus far for me lacks a killer tittle for it's launch, Socom 2 on PS2 was my game team favourit of all time, but hackers just eventually killed it .

Looks like the brilliant close competitor Rainbow 6 franchis with foul mouthed but hilarious terrorists comment, is going to also miss the boat, thats if it ever gets launched.

You play games??!!

Can't imagine Arf on Britneys DanceMat 4?

Neither. Havnt had a console since the original xbox.

I can honestly say I've never owned a consul, kids have a wii that's not been used probably more than 20-30 hours in 5 years.

GTA 5 is coming out next month so I chances are I will waste a few evenings on the xbox.

I own one, think i last turned it on 18 months ago?

Ha, same here we've got a Wii and it stated last used 23 months ago or something when I replaced the TV cabinet!

lol! yes i play online games, it fascinates my Grandkids mates that their Grandad plays (badly btw), as even their dads don't play. The comments are often very funny

i have both the Xbox as my main choice simply as their is far less 'modding', PS3 as Dvd player and for 3D Games, but they are becoming rarer

prefer tactical shooters like SOCOM II and Rainbow Six.3 Las Vagas not run and guns like Call if Duty franchise where you immediately re-spawn and play on.

if i upgrade it will likely be only the Socom Franchise that tips me to PS3, as yet though no real headliner boasted for it that i care for, either way i'll wait well past new year before i get anything, let the early models show their bugs up first .

Built myself a powerful pc with (at the time a very dear and very hot running gfx card) used to play online but call of duty 4 was out of my skill zone. Loved counter strike 2 that came free with half life (that long ago) havnt really used steam since
