Between the used game capabilities, what they're doing with DRM, the launch price and new Kingdom Hearts + Final Fantasy games it's safe to say that Sony is poised to win this generation and it hasn't even started yet.

Granted, Sony seems to be going for more of a gaming console than Microsoft is, but still. They killed it at their press conference.

That launch price is the biggest deal - the people (rightfully) complaining about the XB1 policies are in the minority when it comes to the whole consumer base, there are a lot of people who don't really participate in this discussion who are going to buy it for the next Halo or CoD.

But, those same people will notice that price difference, and that will really give Sony an edge here. Especially fitting because that's one of the things that really hurt them last cycle.
