    This, depending on what is revealed at E3......I'll be buying a PS4, if that is disappointing, well....can anyone here help me build a gaming PC for my 52' plasma?

    As it stands now I wont buy a xbox one. Although I do like flailing my arms wildly about and screaming at my TV to do what i can alredy do with a remote or controller.

    You'll still be able to use your remote control and as cool as the voice activation seems to be I don't see myself using it all that much as I use Harmony remotes for such things.

    You have a 52' plasma!

    Ah its 50 something I'll need to measure it but it cost me only $800 bucks three years ago on black friday. I know I can use my remote but it all seems kinect this and grab and stretch/voice control that. I just want good games.
