This is stupid. It really comes down to the exclusive games: Dead Rising/Forza/Titanfall/Halo vs. Killzone/Infamous/Uncharted.
I'm still catching up on my 360 and PS3 games and I don't expect to be caught up anytime soon. I was leaning X1 until I found out there's no single player for Titanfall, so for me it comes down to Halo vs. Infamous/Uncharted. Probably going to wait until next year to buy a system since I'm in no rush to play those.
True choice of condiments matter, but if this were the Big Mac versus Whopper how important is having Heinz ketchup on the burger you like the least?
this generation of consoles have more differences than the last. do you want an all-in-one entertainment center? xbox one is the better choice. if you want better graphics and pure gaming, go ps4. exclusives are a sell for many, but that's not all there is to think about.
So you understand liking one console over the other but you think it pathetic to point out deficiencies of one side in a VERSUS thread. It's only bashing when you are a sensitive soul who gets butt hurt when someone else on a message board thinks a product you bought sucks.
Exactly which is why this thread exists. There are pluses and minuses to both systems and this thread is to argue those points.
And here is me saying something good about Xbone since you brought up Titanfall. Titanfall does look amazing and if it lives up to the hype it will be a big plus for MS.
The PS4's graphics are not going to be noticeable in most games. Where you are likely to notice it are in the PS4 exclusive games, which will be optimized for the PS4's GPU.
Was Bulletstorm really that hyped? The only people I know who had the game just bought it because it came with a Gears 3 MP beta pass. I played the beta more than I played Bulletstorm. I did beat it though...it was fun. I wouldn't pay anywhere near full price for it though.
Bulletstorm came out to capitalize on the success of the over the top action and humor of Borderlands and was billed as Borderlands TO THE EXTREME. It was ok in the sense that Duke Nukem was fun, but a lot of penis and boob jokes turned off most of the audience.
I wonder how much of a hand Cliffy B really had in Bulletstorm. I know his name was on it, but I always got the impression that People Can Fly really ran the entire production. Given how bad Gears Judgment was, and how mediocre Bulletstorm was, it wouldn't surprise me if Cliffy had pretty much washed his hands of both*.
I just have not considered it under powered since I bought it. A lot of the talk here worried me but the decision was the right one.
You make some interesting points. My position has been that if they are remotely comparable, I'm going XB because of my personal preference in exclusives. As much as I really liked Uncharted (and I'm sure I'll like LOU, which I just started), I logged more time playing just Halo 4 than I did with the entire Uncharted series. And that's not even factoring in Halo 3 and Gears 1-3. I'm sort of an OCD multitasker so watching TV in the corner while playing a video game that doesn't require a ton of concentration also appeals to me.

This. I get that the PS4 is the better pure gaming system but I'm most looking forward to the combo bouncing between gaming, TV, Skype, internet WHILE gaming, especially walkthroughs on tough areas on YouTube. Im a huge nerd, I'll be skyping my buddy who is playing a game in our madden online league, while I'm playing my game in the same league. All while nekkid. Don't judge me.
Soooo you nekkid skype your gaming buddies............ No judgement here, you might want to look into the game Rust there seems to be a crowd that enjoys that sort of thing, not that there's anything wrong with that.
I think the numbers would be even more lopsided except there is no supply. I'm still trying to pick up one of these but not desperate enough to pre-order.
around here any new console technology you have to go to great lengths to get one early. i remember how hard it was to get a wii...amazon has them in stock so they are not impossible but B&M its always we had a few but the went quick
Strangely enough, now that I have my tax return in hand I'm in no hurry to buy either. Even though its been a few months since launch there still are no compelling games that "OMG I have to play" IMO.
This is probably the right answer for most folks still. I talked myself into buying both systems early, but I'll be the first person to say that you're not missing anything right now. Titanfall and maybe some of the PS4 exclusives coming this fall could start to change that though...

I agree with you guys that there is no "OMG" game on either console yet, but my rational was I was going to play all the games anyways BF4, COD, AC, and the rest, so I might as well play them on next gen. They are not OMG better but they are a lot better.OC Zed said:
This is true. Having played BF4 on both the PS3 and PS4, it's light-years better on the next gen console.
Somewhere out there, a certain FBG was just emailed, texted and tweeted, and is now feverishly scouring the interwebz for something negative to say about the "xbone".
I am not really feeling this game. The trailer they released a few weeks ago made the game look rather boring.
From this video (17 minutes of the first mission), it seems like it will be more akin to the first two thief games (which were essentially pure stealth games, with very little fighting). I'm stoked.
Why do people keep posting stuff like this? It would be rare if anyone is able to see the difference at normal viewing distances so this is not an issue.
haha, you gotta love the crowd here. Because this is a non issue to you, we can't bring up the resolutions of new games for each system?
