All the stats look mostly the same between the One and the PS4 except the price point.

Aggie I really dont know which one is better. they both seem the same.


get the xbox one if you want something that will limit you, the stopping of second hand games so you cant loan games or resell them. not being able to play on it for longer than 24 hours without internet even on singleplayer games, kinect sensor allways on, slower ram and more ive probably missed out. or you could get the ps4 which is cheaper, focused on games, doesn't limit you and is the most powerful console! so yeah there not the same


Why does everyone keep going on about the ram! It will not be very noticeable and won't add to your gaming experience!The games will run about the same on both consoles, maybe the exclusives might be able to utilise the ram but thats about it. Sony haven't shown yet whether or not they have party chat, what the actual interface looks like probably because its **** just like the PS3's interface was **** and laggy! Who cares about connecting online to play a game, its bad for the minority of people who don't have internet yes but most people do have internet, and as for the used games thing microsoft went full ****** there making users pay a fee to play a friend's game.

You clearly know nothing about how hardware works. Having 7GB compared to 5GB will give better performance. Second, you're clearly a biased little ***** who thinks Microsoft is god.


You too clearly no nothing about how hardware works, my friend. Each type of RAM is advantageous in different areas, you can't assume 7GB of RAM will completely destroy 5GB of RAM just because it has a larger number in front of it.


There is no fee to play a friends game at all and for the whole selling thing that isn't up to Microsoft, its up to the publisher. Also to share a game you don't have to hand the other person a disc they just go into you shared library and start playing game. See what people are failing to realize is that we can install are discs now and no longer need them. We can literally throw them away. When you buy a disc you do not own that game. You are actually buying physical rights to play that game. The PS4 runs GPU and the Xbox one runs CPU to different things. Its ok to be a fanboy but at least get your facts straight when you try and prove a point. A lot of this info that keeps popping up is old as shit and has been clarified so a lot of this shit is invalid. One simple thing know your own system before trying to bash another. Oh and I will be buying both systems so i'm not a fanboy lol

People like you are the exact reason why I'm really getting sick of the whole fanbase of gaming companies.

The competition between Microsoft and Sony used to be interesting, people could pose arguments against eachother and they both ended up kind of agreeing that each console has it's own advantages.

You're the kind of person who goes to McDonalds and tries to order Kentucky Fried Chicken. You're so clearly biased towards one brand you try your very best to show it in the best light, you are looking at this objectively and are leaving out aspects which make the Xbox One a gaming system.

Honestly, from reading your post, I can tell you don't know anything about specs on systems, please go educate yourself before posting about something you have no clue about.

iMaGiiKz_v2 I love xbox 360 way more than ps3,But this time i think im going with the ps4


Same with me. I just don't feel like paying $500 for the same thing as PS4. Yes I do realize Xbox One has a good amount of more features than PS4 but still. A 500gb hard drive for PS4, yeah I'll be glad to pay $400 and PlayStation Plus every month. Now we are pretty much even with Microsoft.




Same thing? You sir, are wrong. You do realized that Xbox one going to have tons of stuff than play station, that's why we called it all-in-one games & eniterments. Ps4 is gonna be mostly game, which is boring.


Yeah, my video gamr console playing video games is terribly boring...


So you're saying you want to play games 24/7 for life? Xbox provides better entertainment and gaming, simple. If you don't wanna play, just watch TV or chat on skype with friends, browse the internet while watching a video.

That incredibly creative in my opinion.


How is that creative. I could plug my gaming pc into my tv and boom. Something ten times better then what the actual xbox one is. All I need is a tv tuner and I can use my cable or satellite to instantly watch tv. Its not creative at all. When I buy a gaming console I am buying it to play games. Buying it for movies or surfing the web is ridiculous. Thats like buying a mac over a windows computer when all you plan on doing is surfing the web.


Not everyone can afford a gaming PC or a blu ray player or any other stuff that's why with the xbox one its more affordable with what you get.

I'm not saying I can't afford these things but other people can't and everyone needs to look at it financially and see if you really do get more bang for your buck.

I'm talking to everyone that quoted me not just you.
