I'm Still Going to Buy an Xbox One
Yes, I’m aware of how epically Sony thrashed Microsoft for DRM/always -online. Yes, I am aware of how humiliating it was that Sony spanked Microsoft for used games.
You know what? None of those matter to me.
~I don’t buy a lot of games, but when I do, I buy them new or I digitally-download them. Ergo, the used game/DRM issue doesn’t affect me.
~When I bought my Xbox 360 in 2010, I basically fused it to my ethernet cable and fused the other end to the router. I rarely lost power or internet access, and the only reason I don’t have my Xbox hooked up right now is because it doesn’t have wifi and my router is in the kitchen. Otherwise, I would be connected 24/7 because I can’t live without the Internet.
So the only difference to me is the exclusives, the services, and the prices (although once you get up comparing $400 and $500, the difference doesn't strike me as so big). And you know what? I like Microsoft’s exclusives (Titanfall, Project Spark) better, and I like the direction they’re taking with Xbox LIVE more than I like the direction Sony is taking PSN and PS+ (I don’t have anything against them, I just like Microsoft’s changes more). So there. *blows a raspberry rudely and immaturely at all the equally-immaturely cheering Sony fanboys*

I was very partial to MS in the last gen, but really, I want to game where my friends are. Playing with them is important to me. To be honest, DRM wouldn't change my game much at all either, but the PS4 is better for gamers, and that is where they should go. It's cheaper, and it gives gamers more rights to their products. That is better for everyone I play with, and it is a good thing for the industry in general, to shy away from an iphone world of rights management and content control. the Games will follow gamers, just like they did last generation.
