    Why do they call it Xbox 1? Because it's the greatest 1 hour comedy film in history.

    Once again, for the 4th time in a row, Playstation will be the only console worth owning.

    Well to be fair MS's fundamentals are too good for the conference to have any significant lasting impact on the market value. Only if it was extremely racist or would otherwise damage their public image could the xbawks conference affect their market value significantly. MS simply has too much of a foothold in other things.

    I'm looking forward to the stories where kids ask their mothers to buy them an Xbox One and she comes back with an original Xbox. "You said you wanted an Xbox 1!"

    I have a feeling PCs are going to dominate the next generation. I'm going to have a beer to celebrate.

    Honestly, I can't stand the taste of alcohol (even if the drink masks it in loads of sugar, I still get a nasty bitter aftertaste), but I sure do wish I had a bottle of SOMETHING during that conference.

    Any recommendations (preferably cheep)? I think I could use something for the E3 conference.

    I recommend Samuel Adams Boston Lager. It isn't my favourite (I prefer ales), but it is an easy drink.

    I assume Sony will also be following the same Second Hand Game Fee thing?

    I wonder what the controller will cost.

    If the build quality isn't as horrible as the 360 and they keep the x-input, I might buy one when they go on sale.

    Don't be silly, we all know the xbox won't be even half as powerful as the average gaming pc of 5 years ago.:P

    Can some actual IT person answer on what's the latency of packing a engine request to cloud and getting a reply and continuing game on received data?
