You got me there. I really don't know if it's possible for them to output graphics to take advantage of 4k HDTVs. I do know that they are coming down in price, but still not too affordable for the layman who wants a TV upgrade. I'm expecting these boxes to last just as long or even longer than the 360 or PS3.

Since it's the first thing the general public experiences. People that frequent Kotaku might agree with your statement, but eye candy is what sells.

I don't think it's laughable. Who's to say they can't upscale to 4k via firmware upgrade down the line? Since both know that these console generations last longer, I don't think it's much of a leap to assume that they're prepared for 4k TVs.

I loved the PS2 startup sound…

Nice. Me, too! Just curious what all the fuss is about, honestly.

It's not low esteem when it's true. How interested can you be watching someone else play games?

But I wonder what makes them entertaining? Someone posted the "cute ones" make a lot of money. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out that being attractive will get more viewers. But what else makes someone livestreaming a game must-see TV?

See, that's the thing — I can't see how interesting it is to watch a livestream of someone playing, let alone pay for it. Like I said, maybe I'm out of touch but I'd rather be playing the game rather than watching someone play in real time, unless they're showing something specific, (i.e. how to get past a certain…

Hey gamers. I'm probably out of touch, but how important is livestreaming to any of you? I checked out a few Twitch streams of some PS4 owners and it's been ok. It's not particularly interesting other than watching someone play, talk to someone off webcam, curse, keep playing shout, and repeat. Don't get me wrong —…

Uuugh. So online stability issues are making people lose their Speed Points? Yeah, no thank you.

That just looks disturbing…

I was thinking the same thing. I don't care for friends sharing anything game related on social media, unless it's some weird glitch or something like that 64-man parachute jump off a building in Battlefield.

Doesn't this just mean the wood table is uneven? Or are there notches/bumps under the PS4 that makes it wobble. Either way, it's not a deal breaker.

I've had my first gen 360 RROD on me soon after purchase. I was still within my warranty with Best Buy at the time so I returned it and upgraded to the 360 Elite, which still works perfectly (but very, very loudly) to this day.

I get the point and read the articles (both this and the one that didn't require me to commit to an online subscription). In any case, I assumed (since there's really not much content in the story other than the police are pressing charges — no word on the grandma if she knowingly gave the info or not or if the kid…

How does a tip require an answer? But, hey, if you want the spotlight bad enough, go for it.

Pro-tip: DO. NOT. GIVE. YOUR. CREDIT CARD INFO. TO. ANYONE.

These are all things that I'm glad to hear about. It doesn't affect how I enjoy my games (although upgrade the drives will be a necessity now more than ever). But if all the extra downloading or caching leads to a more fluid/streamlined experience, I'm all for it.

Felicity is the only reason I watch the show. Her and her lines.

Games ultimately dictate who I go with first. I was sure I was going to get a PS4 with a copy of Destiny to keep me busy for a few months, but then the Titanfall trailer hit and I thought, "Pfft. That game is just a timed exclusive. I'm good." Until Respawn said, "Nuh-uh, we're locked with the Xbox One
