Xbox One

Though I'm a serious Forza fanatic, I will still NOT be picking this lump of fail any time in the near future and most definitely not new. No desire to support Microsoft in any capacity at this point.

I've never been a huge Xbox fan, I don't hate it but it really never caught my eye either. I seriously just got a Xbox 360 last year (if that tells you anything) so I think I can wait for the Xbox One when it goes on sale or I can just live without it, either way works :D

Not even for a Rose Colored Gaming special edition dedicated Killer Instinct cabinet? ;)

And if you are taking requests, I'll take one in the shape of an original Midway cabinet to set to the left of the rest :D

i'm getting both systems on the 5th because walmart is giving me a 25% discount off of 1 whole purchase.

^^^ Does Amazon charge tax in your state yet? If not, it may be more advantageous to buy them both online, depending on the tax rate in your state/county. Sales tax is 8% in my county, so it would be worth it for me if Amazon didn't charge sales tax here (they do).

I cannot support Microsoft's moronic attempt to thwart the used game market (which helps them far more than it hinders them), their draconian DRM, and their mind bogglingly invasive hardware. Sure, they reeled a lot of that back in after massive backlash from the community, but there's no reason on Earth that they can't re-implement any of that whenever they want, and I can't imagine that they won't. Sony has done a lot of what they were trying to do, just without a big announcement and in little chunks here and there (which somehow makes it more palatable for me).
All that said, I would still love to build something like that. I know I'll end up with it in my collection at some point, it just won't be any time soon, and I sure as hell won't be purchasing a download-only game to build a cabinet around if it's gonna require that I connect to the internet every XX amount of hours. Hopefully Dark Alex will be working hard on the One...
