It's a big year for video game consoles.
Sony's new PlayStation 4 and Microsoft's new Xbox One will launch at the end of the year. Meanwhile, Nintendo's Wii U won't even be a year old by the time its new competitors hit the market.
Here's a quick breakdown of what each console can do. (Besides play games, of course.)
The Xbox One can sync with your cable box and let you watch live TV.
The new Kinect sensor on the Xbox One lets you control the console with your voice. You can use it to change the channel, switch to a video game, or turn the Xbox on.
The Kinect has an HD camera that lets you make Skype video calls from your TV. It's also much better at detecting motion for controlling games.
