having not owned one, but played them, I reckon one very obvious thing Xbox has over PS (any model) is the better range of kids games, especially with the interactive ones (for whatever that bar is called)

that, and Halo is fucking awesome.

My 17 year old stepson used to be an Xbox fan but since he got his PS4 that's all changed. I enjoy playing fallout ? ( think it's called that ) with him.
My boys are gonna have fucken kittens when they realise they are gonna get TWO star wars games as well. Just to fuck with them I'm gonna get something crap from the $2 shop and say that that is their present only to get the real one a few minutes later. Should be good humour.

I can't bring myself to be that much of a prick, funny as it would be!

I have a XBox One I never use. Seemed like such a good idea at the time...

I got my boy a Porsche, the lucky little shit. When I was a kid I had a pretend Porsche that was also called a "Wheelbarrow".

I got it and two controllers and two games for $549. Pretty happy with that. I also picked up star wars battlefront for a ridiculous $30. Suffice to say i'm hoping for a few rainy days this summer.
Star Wars is fun, I don't know why it dropped in price so quickly, I guess the hard core FPS gamers and Star Wars geeks don't intersect that much.

Yep that sounds about right. Same time I had a PS2, the bro-in-law had an Xbox. All the games on it felt a bit toony, and the driving games were no comparison.
MS identified the younger market as a target, and not wanting to have too much gore. The boy's mate has the next-last Xbox and it seems OK, and while Halo looks fucking awesome, the PS stuff still appeals to me more.
Once the PS4 gets rolling here, I'll be thinking about VR. That would be really interesting to experiment with.

Sad for anyone to get fired at this time of year but check out the loathing for them in the comments. I'd say most of it would be directed at only one of the duo though.
And on a much more positive note, great news that @Gibbit has a full time gig again leading the Radio Sport morning show

I think the ODT went paywall only, Smudge might be able to give us some more info about that.
Never quite eventuated. It's still being discussed, but I'd be surprised if turns up any time in the next few months.
