Think about the 360. I believe $400 when it first came out tons of issues the biggest one the ring of death. Now you can get the best built 360 with either kinect or more storage for under 300 bucks and a huge library games to choose from.
Xbox One will come out with a handful of exclusive games and I am sure plenty of bugs. Unless you have cash to burn I don't know why anyone would drop 500 bucks on that system. Wait a year or two when they finally bury the 360 get the bugs out of the One and it has a larger library. Not to mention developers need some time with a system before they start perfecting games for them.
The saddest part about the new consoles for hard core gamers especially the X1 is that now gaming is just part of what they do not solely what they do. Shot lose all the other stuff sell it for $200 bucks and just focus on gaming; I pay $80 for an awesome game vs. $500 for the box and $60 for a ok game.
The worst thing that happen to console gaming as far as the hardcore fans go was the Wii. IT showed developers that if they developed gimmicky games for a larger audience there was more money to be made in that market. How many great video game developer minds were pulled off awesome game designs to work on things like Wii Tennis, Kinect, Wii bowling, PS Eye, etc....just plain sad.
