PS4 or Xbox1?

i sold every console and don't play very much. However the new EA UFC game is basically going to make me buy this thing and I need one of those consoles to play.
When these were coming I read alot about them both and there just seems to be massive amounts of pros and cons with each that make 1 better than the other for different people.

basically, I would be playing this game and not likely online. I can get away with the smallest HD possible. my last console was the Xbox with 8gig drive and the super basic online thing, also had the WII U but sold it (got it to play with family over the holidays and sold it)

i know some of you gamers that follow this could likely help me with this. im sure its easy to get a hold of these consoles and accessories by now, but any pros and cons would help thanks

No console will ever be as good as a PC, just throwing my two cents in there

I agree with this statement but in this case, the UFC game is not being released for PC as far as I know. So you're left with xbox or ps4.

Exactly, i have the PC but it is PS4 or Xbox1 release game.
I guess ill probably just have to read a bunch of comparos from gaming sites to figure something out. I think I have a little bit min before the game releases.

They are doing the Bruce Lee thing with pre-order. So you'll want to make sure you decide in time to pre-order or just pre-order both and cancel the one you don't want.

Not super critical if you miss it cause I think they said can be unlocked by beating the game on hardest difficulty or something.

I've always liked the xbox better than playstation since it came out. Multiplayer is better on the xbox and I prefer the interface better. But I have an xbox 1 and a ps3

i went with xbox.

after reading the consoles are basically the same, the xbox COMES with kinect, I got titanfall bundle for $50 LESS than the regular xbox bundle, ive had xbox before so thought it might be more user friendly to me? etc.

I didn't get much chance to use it, although I am highly impressed with the console in the UI, the gesture and voice commands of the Kinect. I think I made a good choice.

Being a bad 'gamer' I got through the intro course of Titanfall and the controller and input are really improved and I actually do ok for 'gaming' (im a better stratigest than using 10 fingers at the same time to do things...lol)

It sorta seems Titanfall is online only and doesn't have anything by myself, but I will get working on it...

I am looking into other titles and such, obvi stated the UFC game, but some others. Is BF4 the way to go? Ill probably try out Halo 5, but I normally don't do well against the younger generation with war titles usually, not only do they seem to be gifted with dexterity, but I simply don't have the hours to put into a game to get really good at it!

How long after these titles do people move on? If I get a game about when it releases is it 6 months before people are moving onto something new and they aren't playing it online anymore or what?

Im trying to get more involved and move from my 1 friend on the xbox (my little bro, lol) so any ideas and stuff is nice. Im trying to move to this from Netflix which is just making me seem like im sitting at home getting dumb, seems like interaction with video games will be more fun and entertaining for me and my brain

^ nice choice.

bf4 is very much multi player online and you can play for several months. there is a single player story mode that takes 8-10 hours to complete.

in multi-player, there's several huge maps, takes, choppers, jets, and infantry on the ground so there's a lot of different things you can do.

there's a large learning curve if it's not your normal thing so you'll likely die a lot but you might get better with time.

in short, it's a huge game.

here's a couple of videos of me and a friends game play:

friend shooting choppers out of the sky with a tank:


me knifing a bunch of infantry:

I bought both the Xbox One and PS4. I'm really disappointed with both. For the price, neither will play my 3D blu-rays which makes me ultra sad.

Nope and Sony has stated they're not even sure if they will ever update the software to ever play 3D. I doubt Microsoft will ever update their software to play 3D either. I think both systems are equally garbage for not being able to play the newest and latest media. Like you said, ps3 plays it. The question is why doesn't ps4?

My thought is ps4 doesn't so people have to buy both a ps4 for the latest having and a separate bluray player for 3D movies

that statement is completely wrong, as the PS4 can support 4K output for movies and images which is becoming the "new standard" in Ultra HD displays. Also forgot to mention that sony is working on oculus rift competitor called project Morpheus, that works with the PS4 to actually give you the virtual reality experience.

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/...ject-morpheus/


3D didn't take off how everyone expected. I used my ps3 once with the 3D for killzone. It was pretty cool but never played it again like that. And as for 3D movies I watch them from my external hard drive, but im pretty sure at one point as long as you were buying a 3D TV they were giving you the 3D blu ray player and like 6 pairs of glasses. But again I may have watched 3-4 movies in 3D.

4K I will be investing in shortly when prices drop some more and more movies/services offer 4k video.
