Just caught up on the stuff from yesterday only to reach this last page and see that the PS4 will also be region free? Yep. Sony killed it this time.

Battlefront and Elder Scrolls Online being announced for consoles just makes me happy. And with all of Nintendo's stuff coming soon, my wallet is sure to not be too happy about it. There is seriously a ton of good looking stuff coming this fall up until next fall.

I loved all of the exclusives that Xbox showed but Sony won. $399, you can rent and sell games, and play used games. Killer Instinct is free to play with one character...the others you have to pay to play as. Awesome... And suddenly I'm not as sad about Killer Instinct anymore.

I never cared for it in the first place. Oh, and it's also not being made by Rare.

That is a shame that Mario Kart isn't coming this year. I was sure that it was going to.

New DK looks great. X and Smash Brothers look great as well.

Mario Kart looks nice. Smash Brother looks nice. Finally a 3D Mario. DK I don't care for. Sucks that all of that is in 2014. ANd to be honest, without a price drop, it's still not enough to make me buy a Wii U.

I believe Mario 3D is coming in December and DK is coming in November. I was honestly disappointed in Mario 3D. I understand them not showing Zelda Wii U as it's most likely a 2015 title at the earliest.

After years of lackluster game support and systems, I wish Nintendo would just go third party.

Well Microsoft was out shined by both Sony and Nintendo. This coming from a Xbox fan, I'm not getting the XboxOne, no need to drop $500 on a system I don't even want. No game titles peaked my interest either. Still unsure what game system will sell better but with the negative press to the XboxOne the PS4 is looking good.

I felt like Microsoft had a lot of nice looking games and announcements. It's just the whole thing with their policies is a HUGE negative.

Well, I've pre-ordered both consoles with Amazon. Risk free and guarantees release date delivery for whichever one I decide to keep. Microsoft and Sony now have five months to sway me one way or the other, essentially. Neither one has me saying "I have to have THIS one" yet. Regardless, I'll end up owning both, but whichever I don't buy at launch will have to wait for a price drop.

The ONLY thing that's keeping me from buying an Xbox One is it's online policies. Hopefully, Sony's initiative to actually support and target gamers with the PS4 will nudge MS in that direction as well.

Judging from what everyone's saying, I didn't miss much with Nintendo's direct. Just more of the same. I can just go on the site and pick out the few games I'm interested in to look at.

The ONLY thing that's keeping me from buying an Xbox One is it's online policies. Hopefully, Sony's initiative to actually support and target gamers with the PS4 will nudge MS in that direction as well. Yeah, I can't say that I'm terribly excited about Microsoft's online policies with the One, but I also am trying to keep in mind that very little of it actually effects me. -I don't trade in my games, I always keep them. -I rarely, if ever, buy used. If I have to have the game, I buy it immediately. If I don't, I wait for a price drop or a sale. -I have subscription cable service that I don't plan on getting rid of anytime soon, so I'm able to take advantage of those features. -I have a strong broadband connection, which, again, I don't plan on getting rid of any time soon. Having to be online means little to me, though it is inconvenient. That leaves two qualms I can think of that actually effect me - sharing games with friends, and, what if my internet goes out? It happens occasionally, and I usually resort to gaming when it does. Though, with the 24 hour policy in place, I'm unlikely to be affected by that either. So really, it just comes down to sharing with friends. It is absolutely ludicrous that I can't give my friend a game to play or vice versa without actually gifting it to them forever. Why can't each disk come with a specific set of "lends" to friends? In other words, you could theoretically register X number of gamertags to be able to play a certain game, and still be able to take it back when they're done with it. With all that being said, I can totally see why people are pissed. A lot of those things that aren't an issue to me can easily effect someone else so much so that the console becomes entirely useless.

Kingdom Hearts III and Final Fantasy are both coming to the Xbox One as well.

I'm almost in the same boat as you except for the trading in and buying used. I do that alot as I miss out on great titles and have to resort to getting them later down the line. For me, it's all based on principal. I'm pretty big when it comes to those types of things. MS is walking that line between giving gamers options and straight up dictating what they do with their console. To me, that's not a good thing or a step in the right direction.
