The holidays just got (potentially) a lot harder for anyone with gamers in the family.
Microsoft unveiled its Xbox One system to the masses earlier this week, not long after Sony whipped out an early look at its newest creation, the PlayStation 4. Both consoles promise to be at the top of most holiday gift lists, and gamers will be scouring for any news that comes out of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, which hits the Los Angeles Convention Center in June.
There's no doubt retailers in Southern California and beyond will be taking pre-orders and prepping for long lines once prices and release dates are set, most likely in time for the holiday season. For those who like specs, you can check out Engadget's breakdown of the Xbox One and Sony's list of PS4 specs here.
Tell us: Will you be first in line to get either machine, or do you plan to wait and read the reviews first? Will you pass altogether on both gaming consoles?
