PS4 vs Xbox One.

[ADV_93]

Fact of the matter is now, the PS4 is literally just a PS3 with a slightly bigger HDD and a bit better graphics, you've even gotta pay for the online features now too (yeah ok.. you get some free games, but live with gold on xbox now gives away 2 free full game titles every month)... for £100 more you can get an xbox one which functions as an xbox, dvr, pc and all three at the same time, plus a free kinnect 2 (the playstation camera has to be purchased at extra cost and is nowhere near as advanced as the kinnect 2 in terms of depth etc..)

IMO microsoft have managed to pull it back, there's nothing that the PS4 can offer that betters the One in any way

Agree with the hacking though pellowe, should be an insta lifetime ban on that gold account

Oh wow, you get a Kinect free, so well done, you can now be watched 24/7 by your Kinect. The consoles may be similar, but the PS4 is a more powerful machine and FYI Sony win this still as Microsoft tried to pull this shit in the first place and even Microsoft have admitted defeat by practically morphing their console into a PS4. And "like a PS3 but with better graphics" the PS3 in almost every area beat the Xbox whether it was power, reliability, exclusives, anywhere. It was just the typical fanboys that couldn't admit it that won't ever agree, because well, they're Xbox elitists. PlayStation has a history of making great gaming consoles and Sony make great games, that should be more than enough for you to stick with them if you have PS3. The mere amount of the actual gaming community that are against Microsoft right now beggers belief and even though Microsoft are trying to change it, they still hate them.

It's completely pointless to argue about this. If you want to discuss the merits of each, and why your money is going on it... fair enough. Saying "FYI Sony win this still" is bollocks and only going to to fuel the fire.

At the end of the day it's down to OPINION which one is better and therefore which one you buy.

I know after all this I'll be buying an XB1.

bla bla bla.. i'm a butthurt sony fanboy is all i managed to gleam from that i'm afraid....

" the PS3 in almost every area beat the Xbox" all you have to do is look at the sales figures of the 360 compared to the PS3.. to see that it didn't in one key area... SALES which funnily enough relates directly to every other aspect you listed..

If you don't like the console and aren't planning on buying one, don't? rather than spouting all this "oh xbox suck and sony is amazeballs" typical fanboy argument bollocks..

I'm not planning on getting a PS4 now but i'm not slating it either, both are going to be good consoles just my personal preference is the xbox one...

And quoting myself earlier "there's nothing that the PS4 can offer that betters the One in any way" that statement still stands as a fact.

[Curt]

Actually, Danny, at this point the PS3 has sold more than the 360. Just. Doesn't hold much relevance to me though, it's preference at the end of the day. It's just the fanboys that do my head in

[ADV_93]

One must be a fanboy to call one a fanboy.

Fair enough and to be honest, yes, preference is all it will ever come down to. To be fair i posted a poll 2 pages ago and actually didn't intend for an ongoing argument about games consoles on a car forum.

I will be buying the PS4. There we go.

Well, might be buying a PS4 unless something else decides to break on my car...

I think the xbox1 is just a gloryfied 360 with a few added extras you could probbly buy a samsung smart tv for less that does more lol..

[Curt]

You could say the same for any next gen console, it's just an upgrade. Nobody NEEDS one, it's a luxury. You could say the same for the PS4

[Just Sean]

Which is why PC is win.

/end

[Puggie]

Pc's are for porn and abusing people fact

[Scott]

And for being able to use epic mods and cheaper games (yes you pay more for hardware initially and drm).

[Puggie]

Been there and done it scott. I used to be a semi pro quake III arena player

Got sick of upgrading every 6-8 months


I rwmber spending 800 on upgrades so I cud run far cry and crysis full pelt

[Midnightclub]

I just spent £300 on my new setup and it'll play far cry 3 in max settings no problem

[lolsteve]

Built a games pc for £150 including a couple of left over bits like a 150gb hard drive and case with the front hanging off, and that'll play pretty much anything going right about now.

I won't be buying either but I want them to release so the 360 drops in value and I can pick one of the slim ones up for cheaper for the uni house, since although pc's are awesome a console is just the best for slapping cod zombies on the big tv and going split screen with a couple of chums.

Dude am talking about 2004 when far cry came out cudnt even get half decent ram back then for 150 quid. You lot were all still in nappies

[rtha6551]

Neither, rather have some coils :p

[ADV_93]

Great to see this thread getting so much attention!

Anyone had a chance to play the Gran Turismo 6 demo, release yesterday btw?

[Puggie]

No not yet i did download it last night though. hope its better than gt5 was a bit of a let down imo

[aggyj17]

Just downloaded it waiting for it to install

[ADV_93]

To be honest, releasing a Gran Turismo any time soon is wrong, as the out come would basically be a polished up GT5 with new cars and tracks... They should just work to make GT6 for PS4 then you have more power to play with. The GT6 demo didn't feel or play too bad however, but yeah, felt just like GT5...

To be honest, being Polyphony, GT6 won't be out for another 5 years...

[Puggie]

Meh its like driving a 1998 306 am not quite sure if its a phase 2 or 3
