Hi, I'm a big gamer, I'm thinking of getting the Xbox one next year or soon, but should I wait for a really awesome bundle?

What does Next Gen Consoles have that the pc or mac doesn't? By god there is even a tablet out that you can play pc games on, in person I have only seen it play 32 player lobbies on low graphic in battlefield 4 but its still amazing compared to consoles. Technology in PC mate

I dont want to start a console war or something but if you MUST get a console get PS4. Unless the xbox exclusives are the reason of your choice.

He's just saying PS4 is better piece of plastic, so you can beat people off longer. But if you want to play games, check which console has exclusives you want.

I agree PS4 will have more exclusives and better with a PC than Xbox which is just a PC console

they are both pc consoles, same processor architecture. and MS has stated they will release more PC games this gen too... So Xbox Exclusives may end up being just Microsoft Exclusives or vice versa ... like Halo: Spartan Assault is making its way to both xbox consoles when it was originally made for 8

Yeah. Both have PC parts, why people still spread marketing lies? Both are almost identical, X1 has just a bit more of outside gaming functionality...

+1, this generation really doesn't offer anything above PCs, especially PS4.

no generation offered anything above pcs in the last 15 years. and no generation will offer anything above pcs. the simple fact that you think of such high standards is an example of why the pc elitists and the console users are delusional.

Pretty sure he meant in terms of exclusives, as PC didn't get nearly as many ports generations ago.

Out of curiosity, which exclusives? The only two I cared about were Titanfall and Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare and both have already been confirmed for PC after their original live appearances.

(I know that Killer Instinct is one but it looks like an absolute crime against what made the original Rare-made Killer Instinct games fun, and Forza Motorsport 5 looks alright I guess)

absolutely no idea. my favourite genre (rts) isn't really console friendly so that's why I wouldn't even think of picking up a console again for the time being.

buy the console that has the exlusives you like or the same one your friends have, so you can play with them. :)

It's nosense in buying a new console right now. Wait a couple of months and you can get the newer "slim", "extended", "ultra" or whatever they call the patched hardware, plus one or more games bundled with it. Also always wait for an offer, always.

Like many people said already, wait a few months until they get cheaper, because right now there aren't many good games out for both of the new consoles, but I gotta say the new controllers for XBOX ONE and PS4 are both better than the old ones ;)

Btw has there been said anything about the XBOX ONE controller, if it's compatible with the PC wireless adapter?

you wont need the wireless adapter, youll be able to use USB without any problems, but i can see them releasing a adapter for wireless, me id prefer it wired :)

For me, Xbox will come after a new pc, which i hope to do within the next couple months, so hopefully by middle of next year things are all worked out on both consoles so everyone can see they really arent much different

Also the whole graphics debate, I honestly cant tell a difference between the two from far away, let alone a foot away. :/
Just play whatever you like most, dont listen to other peoples shit

Also take in mind the online services and software on the consoles. Sony may be good at hardware but from what ive seen of the PS4 interface it looks awefully confusing , where as the One sticks to what people know from the 360 and the service, Sure PSN was free last gen... but at what price? They made the right move to make PS+ more of a requirement because now youll see better service over time, but XBL will have the lead sooner than PS for awhile, but give it a year because only time will tell, not endless flamewars

A media box with built-in spyware... and a small tiny side dish of gaming purpose they added in as a last second thought with high restrictions and average quality graphics.

Definitely wait. No point buying it now because you don't know if it doesn't have any problems. Shouldn't have big heating problems because it has much better cooling than PS4 but there might be some other things. Maybe after a year we will know and it will be actually worth buying it.

if i was to buy a console now, i'd get a ps4. launch titles are a bit shit, however the fact of the matter is that i buy consoles to play games, and the console that has its focus on playing games would be the better investment for me. i also think playstation + is a way better deal than xbox live, where a lot of the extras aren't even free with xbl.

then we get to the hardware... ps4 wins hands down in that department.

REAL RESPONSE:
Everything Ive heard and read, XB1 is a good system. Alot of interesting improvements over last gen. Everything is very quick and can run multiple apps with ease including having one game running in the background and switch to another if you so want to.. Or skype, or game guide, or netflix etc

The controller reconizes who holds it and auto-signs in your profile. Also Kinnect camera does similar. Very painless for the most part.

Ive heard Forza is very good. I heard that psycho bike game is bad but I watched a live steam of it with Steaminators group and it was very entertaining (maybe not 59.99 entertaining though)

BF4 is superior on XB1 (then 360 or PS3)

Don't be fooled with all the ppl saying .. PS4 > Cause 1080P. The reality is ppl don't notice the difference so its kinda a non-issue. Performance-wise Ive heard both systems are equal, as this shouldn't be a surprise really.

The only REAL response besides my own in this thread so far has been people saying "Well, What games do you want to play?"
This is the big one. If you like the Mario Zelda Games go with Wii-U. If you are into Gears Halo, then XB1. If you are into Killzone Uncharted then PS4.

Ive also heard that MS no longer has complete control over the prices. Which means that there will be sales often, and possible "steam-like" ones. (This could be equally true for PS4)

Ive also heard PS4 is working on a cloud-based streaming to make it backward compatible with PS3. I don't know if this means you will be able to play your old PS3 games or if it means, ppl will have access to a select PS3 Library for a fee.

I know the XB360 was the place to play MP games.. It was the go to for FPS players (biggest population). Only time can tell with this generation.

Me personally .. at some point I will own both if not all three. I love my PC. But Im not a PC Master Race guy. Im a GAMER. I play games. End of Story. GL

"BF4 is superior on XB1 (then 360 or PS3)" If it wasn't then that would be surprising, I don't think it beats Ps4 though.

"It was the go to for FPS players (biggest population" Why does this matter? (not saying its true) You always find a game anyway

"there will be sales often" Ps3 always had sales, Plus Ps+ Offers much better stuff then XLive

" The reality is ppl don't notice the difference" Its a slight difference yes but people do love to get the highest quality graphics as possible

"The controller recognizes who holds it and auto-signs in your profile" Didn't know that, Pretty cool

"run multiple apps with ease" Ps4 will be the same I've heard

"Performance-wise Ive heard both systems are equal" Not so sure about that, Maybe since xbox is running at 720p and Ps4 1080p

But overall it doesn't matter to me, My household will have both since My brother buys xbox for Forza and his 1 or 2 friends on xLive and Ill get the Ps4 because I'm used to the controller layout,I like the exclusives,design of the Ps4,its cheaper and doesn't come with a camera i won't use.

In the end everyone should do their own research and find the facts for their self to decide which is better based on what they will use it for. :)

Ps. Slight ps fanboy sorry xD

Live is solid but cannot deny PS+ giving all the free content. And now that MP is ONLY offered through PS+, more and more ppl will take advantage of it. XBL needs to step up the game for sure.

Again I dont own either and at some point prolly will own both but ...

I have heard the insider rumblings that the XB1 Feels more like Next Gen. With all the new additions and changings (as well as playing games). THe PS4 feels like an updated PS3. Which is fine. As with both experiences you want to play games.

Also from the same users seems M$ did what they set out to do, "Complete the living room experience". They even allow you to play your Wii-U or PS4 THROUGH the XB1, albeit with latency so no one will practically do this.

Im very excited to see both do well.

Look, it's okay to state your opinion, but don't try to force your opinion on others. While you might not be able to see a noticeable difference between 720p and 1080p, a lot of us do. Personally, I can't stand lowering the resolution to 720p on PC games. I've grown so accustomed to 1080p that anything less looks terrible.
Now, granted, if I'm playing an older game I already expect the difference in graphical fidelity so it's not so bad. With an eighth generation game console, however, there is no excuse for anything less than 1080p.

I used to not notice a difference with 30>60 fps, until I made the switch to PC and that stuttering is something you should never experience.
