I should have been more clear...sorry for that. I was referring to getting single and multiplayer value in your purchase...not buying both consoles! To me...the X1 is more of a win/win due to it's online capabilities...especially with the inclusion cloud and scype! They already had superiority there without improvement...Sony has everything to prove when it comes to online play. That's a gamble I'm not willing to take!

Money dude, money.

MULTIPLAYER and SINGLEPLAYER... you get BOTH guaranteed with XBOX 1...no guarantees with PS4. I like both...and my experiences on PSN MP haven't been that great. Whp knows how their party system will work. I haven't heard a thing about any improvements to PSN online while MS has multiplied servers with Cloud and improved communication with Skype!

[QUOTE="ch2423"]I've got my PS4 paid off in full and will wait on XB1 until they remove kinect. If they never do, it's no big loss. Owning both systems this gen has lead to a huge backlog so I'd be fine with just PS4 for the next 7 years or so.sukraj

They have already said that they will not get rid of kinect its here to stay get used to it.

Um...that's why I said right after "If they never do...". Did you just see the first part and go into blind Microsoft defense mode? lol, silly kinect supporters.

WHOA EVERYBODY, hold on a sec. This needs to be clarified:

The PS4 is NOT more powerful. In fact it's less powerful.

The PS4's operating system uses up alot more RAM than the Xbox One. You can Google it, trust me I'm not lying.

nickr2d2
Yes, we'll just take your word for that I guess. No need to link the hundreds of articles that state as fact that the PS4 is a superior console. *SMH*

They're both very close in terms of console power. The bigger difference between the two is going to be the interconnectivity and online capabilities that come with X1. You are going to miss out on the two best early system sellers, Rhyse and Titanfall. The ease of convenience offered from the new Kinect when signing in or changing controllers...and on and on... The biggest single improvement I have seen outside of the console itself on the PS4 is how they made their controller more like the old 360 one. I mean...come on...rumbling triggers! That sh** is BAD A** and there's only one place to get it!!!

I will get xbox one, but not on release date, because there are not games that interest me (maybe forza 5, but just not that much). I will probably get t when Halo 5 is released. And also, i woul like to wait first coupe of xbox one batches to see if there are any start-up hardware errors.

I dont think that one console is better than other, but the point is, i have friends on xbox and i build my gamerscore, so i would like to do that in future. I have x360 and ps3 and i only play x360 for that same reason. I use ps3 as media device in my living room.

Did I not say that you can google it? Look up "ps4 operating system uses more ram than Xbox one" Also, sorry but when you said "superior PS4" instead of "superior PS4 graphic capabilities"... It kind of revealed that you aren't exactly unbiased in console wars. We're all opinionated here, so please don't try to be the unbiased bystander.

Oh, sneaky MS. I'm really curious now about the division of the ESRAM. Also, a direct link from the CPU to the GPU bus? Wth lol, this could be really interesting.

I was planning on staying with Microsoft but thinking twice about that now. Beginning to worry there are production issues and the system will be rushed. Why else would hey be delaying in some counties and not announce release date?

The fact that they are having to make last minute software and hardware changes so the console and kinect can be turned off. Also they are now repackaging them with headsets, which were not previously included.

That's not accurate. 4.5 GB is reserved strictly for games. 512 MB is virtual memory that is handled by the CPU, which Sony claims will also be used only for games, but it isn't 5 GB of physical memory. Go look up virtual memory. At the very least both systems have 5 GB but PS4 certainly doesn't have 6 GB lol.

Im definitely getting an Xbox because I believe that Forza 5 is going to be a better handling game than Driveclub. Sounds better too. Xbox has alot of potential but what screwed them up was that Kinect crap. Its a good thing that they didnt build build Kinect into the system because they would have been ruined for sure. Anxiously waiting for Forza 5 though.

No, I will be purchasing a PS4 because of Sony's stance on multiple issues, the better hardware offered at a better price, and just the PS4's line-up in general.
I've always been a huge Xbox fan and primarily used the original Xbox and the 360 for my gaming needs, despite owning a PS2 (and recently purchasing a PS3, solely for the exclusives). The 360 has always 'felt' like the better console, in my opinion. I just liked the user interface, the controller, and the online portion of the 360 more so than the PS3.
But after witnessing all the initial anti-consumer, anti-gaming nonsense Microsoft tried to pull with the Xbox One, it's glaringly obvious Microsoft has severely lost touch with its core audience. Even if they have since rescinded on these policies, they did so solely because of sales figures. They will not be getting a dime from me. Microsoft needs to know they really ****ed up and that those sorts of practices will simply not fly.

Swoopalz
They have not lost touch with anything, they tried to push things in a different direction and it backfired so they changed their policies. I wasnt in the slightest bit worried about their policies, if anything im disappointed they have changed them. The people getting their knickers ina twist were worried about ownership...the music industry has worked like this since forever and the model is absolutely fine. You own the disc and the right to play it, but you do not own the song itself or have the right to distribute it. MS were actually aiming to be extremely flexible in the same respect...we would own the disc and the right to play the game however they were adding the ability to share those titles legally among friends. Throwing buzzwords like anti consumer around without having the basic understanding of software ownership makes you sound stupid. You have never owned your games... the only difference next gen would be you couldnt sell them to companies like Gamestop which is also a great thing because they profit from the popularity of gaming not from their contribution to it.

Will you be getting every system? If not then you'll be missing out on stuff as well. We can't all play everything.

Eventually maybe...I did last gen and I was disappointed in the PS3...in the mean time I'm getting the most complete piece of equipment l can for my money... ...oh yeah...and that WII I bought for my my wife..that will be incorporated with the much improved Kinect..which also auto connects controllers and provides Skype... around here we call that a win/win/win! How can you beat a hat trick...and don't get me started on the online improvements with 27,000 Cloud servers...

been a xbox 360 user since the beginning, I just bought a PS3 for GTA V so I can play with my friend online, and honestly after using the PSN and the interface. Ill be getting a XOne, maybe a ps3 later. I don't understand people complaining about Kinect and all the other features the offer. I bought a Samsung tablet cause my TV is a Samsung and my phone is a Samsung so I can use all the feature they offer. I like OPTIONS and XBOX one offers plenty. In today worlds people want more for their money. Xbox One Controller Kinect Live Gold HDMI Pass-through for TV its a winner for me

Not to mention the online improvements with 27 THOUSAND Cloud servers and the value that integrating Skype brings to the table! I really dig the auto sign in feature, and the fact that Kinect recognizes each player automatically...that to me is amazing! How cam anybody not want that! PS4 buyers are sucking hind tit when it comes to the whole package

You're right Marc...have fun rockin' the gimped version of Titanfall on 360 and trying out the laggy PS4 online while the rest of us are using the 27,000 cutting edge cloud servers on the proven online service with the top notch cutting edge game that is the perfect mix of Battlefield and CoD! Good luck with that! PS...I will have the PS4 for sale I reserved on my Best Buy credit card if you can't find one! (At a small profit..of course) LOL

Sooooo....how are those 27,000 cutting edge cloud servers on the proven online service working out? Oh, Live was down most of the day? LMAO. Titanfail.
