    you dont have to wait, yo can get a ps4

  3. TheLeonardo4222 says:

    it’s basically a bonus like a pre order bonus. you can think you pay for it
    but you dont have to. I really don’t care why people are so exited since we
    all know they’ll give us indie games or 3 years old games

    “Its a common fact that the majority of the population are getting xbox
    one.” [Citation/Source please] -PS4 launching in 32 countries. -Xbone One
    launching in 13 countries. Face it, Xbox One already lost and it hasn’t
    even launched yet.

  5. TheUmbrellaCorpX7 says:

    Judging the the Global preorder numbers yes most people are buying the PS4
    instead of the Xbox One.

  6. ThePoutamo says:

    actually i have nothing against the PS4 i Think it will be a great console
    that i might even thought i will get the Xbox one as my primary console,
    but if a employe form microsoft by any means would stumble upon this i
    wanna be convincing and i really really don’t like this shitty move by them
    so no hate against the ps4, i am just kinda dissapointed with microsoft.

    How is it piss poor? They would’ve released it in 21 countries, but NOO.
    They just DOWNGRADED it… But why? It’s obvious Microsoft is saying fuck
    you to the other countries. If Microsoft cares about the consumer, then
    they wouldn’t downgrade this turd to release in 13 countries now would it?
    C’mon man. It’s common sense.

    Ehh.. lets see: 1. Sony really doesn’t copy MS otherwise we’d all have to
    deal with it and have 2 always online consoles with always bundled motion
    cameras etc. 2. You should look at the individual regions of “the rest of
    the world” MS only dominates the USA and is almost 10mil behind in Europe.
    3. MS admits/recognises it too and tries to boost sales with a free copy of
    FIFA 14 with Xbone in europe. 4. The reason for the downscaling is now
    known to be the translation of kinect commands.

    Its not region locked……

  10. Martin Aslaksen says:

    I will 😀

  11. popasoda1900 says:

    sony gets most of its sales from japan any way cause they are a japan
    origin company

  12. Martin Aslaksen says:

    I believe both consoles have 500gb 😛

  13. Mazz ND says:

    STRAYA

  14. ITBAE86trueno says:

    Ps4 has japan/asian on lock. Europe’s prefer Ps3/Ps4 (at least the smart
    ones) American gamers are obese GMO fluoridated fools, but even here Ex-box
    is not looking good. Thats why M$ is coming off desperate changing it’s
    polices to be like it’s older brother Ps4. Here is a prediction next week
    ex-box only $399

  15. Martin Aslaksen says:

    It isn’t much faster, so it makes almost no difference 😛 I want halo, dead
    rising, I want Xbox, I grew up with it, I’m sticking with it, no matter
    what. Xbox controller is better than the PS4 too, imo

  16. popasoda1900 says:

    MICROSOFT SAID IT THEM SELF’S THAT all games with multiplayer (which i
    stated) will have dedictaed servers at e3. and they also confirmed that the
    cloud will have unlimited storage if you dont believe me search it up

  17. JacMagnificent133 says:

    Well it’s been proven 2 trillion times by computer geeks that the ps4 is
    faster and more powerful so stop lying to your self and get with the memo
    that ps4 > xbox 180

  18. tastymuffin1 says:

    aaaaaaaaaaaand when you have a ps4 you also dont have to worry about
    privacy. it has already been confirmed that microsoft has passed on
    information about customers to the american government in the past, so they
    can easily do it again. (this time they can even see and hear you through
    the kinect) sony is japanese, so it has no obligation to pass on user info
    the the u.s government.

  19. Diego Pineda says:

    Who Cares?!?!

  20. EzTeng says:

    i buy this because i have money also because i am stupid xD

  21. AlbaIliria says:

    i already got one its call yourmother com and yoursisterisacunt com and
    youareafuckingnoobfanboy com keep crying bitch no gives a shit a bout
    Europe its because we make more money than you do bitch your toilet paper
    dollar is nothing worth in europe

  22. Little Lion says:

    So I guess people in europe will buy the ps4 then.. How stupid of them to
    give away such a big market where their competitor already is pretty
    strong.. We all knew Japan was a lost cause but Europe not so much.. Big
    fail Microsoft you’re shooting yourself in the foot.. this way PlayStation
    will outsell Xbox bigtime probably throughout next gen..

  23. Victor Padula says:

    i dont know why XB1 fanboys think, that now the xbox is IDENTICAL to the
    PS4, they think xbox is now better than PS4, or that the PS4 is bad. Both
    consoles are good now, not PS4 better than xbox or xbox better than PS4.
    they are equal. but before the xbox one changes, the PS4 was better. now
    they are both equal

  24. Daniel Maguire says:

    Haha suck this Xbox. Playstation all the way!!

  25. TheLadGamer says:

    Yeah, but one year later.. you have to upgrade that PC.

    By then, maybe the ipad 5 will finally get a USB port.

  28. Trevor Gosling says:

    Wish it came with the touch keyboard free not planning to buy the keyboard
    have lots of Bluetooth keyboards already.

  29. M Sukoi says:

    ehgggggggg…….

  30. Mark L says:

    strange that the keyboard cover doesn’t have a magnet to help it close and
    stay closed

  31. 3rdOfMalkavain says:

    I don’t think It requires it since where ever you grip the device, the
    cover is held to it by you hand.

  32. Anna Vitale says:
