Not even slightly
I prefer the Xbox.

Alt: No.

No offense AA but that's retardulous.
There's no point picking which console you want before you've even seen what the PS4 can do, know it's price, or know anything about the next XBox.
Being faithful to a console is silly.

I found that I preferred the XBox controller a while back, it's now to a point where I can't use Sony controllers, as they feel far too light and flimsy in my hands
It's more the case that I know the PS4 will be miles out of my price range, and as I have a perfectly acceptable console that still works fine, I see no need to update.

For example, I'm not interested in the Xbox 720 either.

The controllers are a valid choice.
It doesn't take long to get used to the other if just use them more often.

No console is ever worth buying at launch.
Always best to give it 12-18 months for them iron out operating system bugs, developers to put some decent games out and the price to come down.

I have shovelhands and my thumbs crash into each other when using the analogue sticks.
The gamecube controller was probably one of the best i've used.

but surely if you have loads of Xbox games, then it makes sense to buy another one?

They don't tend to make consoles backwards compatible so, no, not really.

I thought they did
But the last console I owned was a Snes

Which wasn't backwards compatible.

360 was (mostly) backwards compatible with the xbox.
The ps3 was initially compatible with the ps2, but this was later disabled.

i see
I think that is pretty shitty
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 21 Feb 2013, 10:39, Reply)

I think it was because the backwards compatibility only worked half the time, so they fucked it off.
Although they did also big up the fact on launch that you could run linux on it, then disable that also. In short, Sony are cunts.

Oh man I love Linux

Well yeah, I know about 99% of owners couldn't give a shit.
But it's still cunty to sell something then take it away.
