PS4 or XBox One?

RuthlessTomato

Well, in just a few months the next gen consoles will come out, and people have mixed opinions. As far as I know, the Xbox is $500 and the ps4 is $400. The xbox comes with the kinect, but you need to use it. The gaming world is currently xbox, but sides might sawy from microsoft to sony. I also believe live will cost on the xbox, but will be free on the playstation

Live is $5 per month on ps4 and $10 per month on xbox.
So if you want to be smart and have steak dinners, buy a ps4, because 1. The ps4 it'self costs less, 2. The live subscription costs less, 3. You can buy used games which sell for cheaper at stores or from friends. Don't forget you can even sell the game when you're done with it and don't want dust just gathering on it and get a few bucks back to go towards your next game.

Nom steak.

I'm buying the Xbox One.That is all I've gotta say because all of these console wars are annoying. Whenever people fight over a superior brand each group of users will prefer the brand they bought and defend it because there is something that they like about that specific product. All of this crap about comparing them is pointless because two press conferences does not show the long term success  or performance of either one.

im choosing ps4 for the exclusives and pc for the best graphics ;)

I "might" get xbox one.. only for Halo 5 and 6..

I think I'd rather spend all that money on new pc parts and get Halo 5 and 6 on pc instead.

Amazon ran a poll, most people seem to have the same thoughts right now I think... As for me, I'm still undecided. I like some of the Xbox exclusive games like Dead Rising 3, but for the price and what you get PS4 seems better right now.

I pre ordered the ps4. Infamous second son, enough said. Already Have a gaming PC for graphics and the xbox one is such a disaster that there is no way i could buy it.

TBH this topic is stupid.  There will be no superior winner for the best console.  It should be all about what YOU like and want.  Just use the Internet for info.

I don't feel that way this time. Microsoft has done everything it possibly could to shoot itself in the foot over and over with the xbox one.

Ps3 and xbox 360 were basically even, both had ups and downd, but i feel ps4 will dominate xbox 1.

-An internet connection will not be required to play offline Xbox One games – After a one-time system set-up with a new Xbox One, you can play any disc based game without ever connecting online again. There is no 24 hour connection requirement and you can take your Xbox One anywhere you want and play your games, just like on Xbox 360.

-Trade-in, lend, resell, gift, and rent disc based games just like you do today – There will be no limitations to using and sharing games, it will work just as it does today on Xbox 360.

This still doesn't sway me from the PS4, but it's a step forward for the xbox.
