For the mods that complained about the poll being too soon, it's certainly interesting to see that the One is doing a lot better then they were right after E3...

It's not doing better. It's that the PS4 voters are tired of voting, therefore their percentage isn't as high as it should be. Pay attention. -winky face-

The percentage of "neither"s is higher than it was before!

Before:

28.03% getting at least an Xbox One
60.81% getting at least a PS4
16.82% getting neither

After:

41.54% getting at least an Xbox One (+13.51%)
50.77% getting at least a PS4 (-10.04%)
20.00% getting neither (+3.18%)

Well that's not surprising at all. They reversed nearly every policy that drove people away in the first place. And if they dropped the price and the Kinect, I'd be picking up a One over a PS4 no question.

X1 at launch. PS4 sometime next year, when I can justify it (maybe get the wife to pitch in as a birthday present to myself, in March).

There are 40 fewer votes and the X1 has gained a whopping 4 votes since the last poll. #turningtide

Ahhh fuck it, I'm in for both at launch. Holding off for a couple months to grab a PS4 doesn't make sense at that point. Should be an exciting couple weeks.

We need a new "What are you buying on November 15" poll.

A wall mount for the new Kinect so it's ready to put in place when the box arrives, obviously.

That's my feeling too. Why wait? Fuck that, instant gratification here I come (wait, that isn't instantaneous!).

I'm thinking about getting both too, so I can play the PS4 through the Xbone and make the Kinect watch.

re: What console are you buying at lunch? (September Edition)

A few changes this week:
  • Next gen titles are moving up the charts
  • The other X1 exclusives passed Ryse
  • Another cross-platform cracks the list for PS4 (Destiny)
  • It looks like CoD PS4 will catch BF PS4, and CoD X1 might catch both
