PLEASE! Help me in this dilemma.

Ok I thought it is better to first tell u a little about myself.

I grew up mostly with a gameboy+playstation, until Gen 7. I used to play MMOs more than you can imagine and have a really sweet spot for RPGs. I get bored really quickly from the unimaginative games coming out every year. Those shooters :( Last generation I had a PSP, which I didnt like at all, an Xbox 360 and a Wii.

Favorite Xbox 360 games: Halo,especially Halo 4,that heartbreaking ending :'(, Gears of War 3, Bayonetta and Alan Wake.

Favorite Wii games:XENOBLADE CHRONICLES <3, Skyward Sword, Mario Galaxy 1/2, SMASH BROS,Twilight princess and Metroid Prime.

The first thing I did this Gen was get a 3DS cuz it had a lot of great games like Fire Emblem,Kid Icarus and of course Pokemon.

About 1.5 years ago I thought a lot about skipping the WiiU and get an Xbox One or PS4, but the WiiU simply had Xenoblade Chronicles X, Bayonetta 2, Smash Bros and Zelda U, so I couldnt miss those games.

I am going to Singapore and Malaysia for my senior trip and I am thinking about picking up an Xbox One or PS4, so which one should I pick ?

It is worth noting that I am a huge Uncharted, played 2 of them at my cousin's house, and a Halo fan.

The Xbox One exclusives are more interesting, but all my friends own a PS4 not an Xbox, so should I just follow them?

What games can you recommend for me? Dont like Assassin's Creed, sorry just my opinion.

Been thinking about the GTA V, Dragon Age Inquisition and Destiny. The Last of Us for PS4, already played Infamous SS, or Halo MCC, Sunset Overdrive and Dead rising 3 on Xbox one.

 

I dont want biased opinions please, just an honest opinion.

 

EDIT: I cant get any Black Friday deals cuz I am getting it from Singapore in January. I cant get both cuz I wont be able to get games for all 3 consoles + 3ds.

PS4.
Ratchet & Clank, No Man's Sky, Bloodborne, Rime, UC 4, Disgaea 5, Persona 5, Wild etc. And that's only the exclusives it'll get next year.

I think it has the best line-up of all the consoles next year, but I'm sure plenty disagree.



Actually XOne... but by 2015 PS4. imho.



You've come to the right place my friend. Nowhere else will you find untainted and unbiased opinions on which console is better than on this very forum.

I say you're a bit in a pickle if you like both exclusives. Is there a reason to not get both?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Xbox is better, but get a PS4 if that's what your friends have.

PS4. All better looking multiplats and shiny exclusives. You wont be disappointed.



Look, what games you want that are only on one of the two. For me personally:

PS4: Bloodborne
X1: Sunset Overdrive, Halo MCC

Your wishlist may look different, but that is what you should decide upon.

I would def agree and say get the console your friends already have. Share games and play with them.

Off-topic: Your coat of arms in your avatar is so similar to mine. Northern Irish?



Well your friends all own a PS4 already so that is a big reason to get one already

However i'll tell you the reasons I chose ps4 this gen.

First of all the track record and the amazing support the PS3 got towards the end of its life was a big factor as well as the great first party studios and exclusives that sony has. This plus the fact that PS Plus offers better free games, the controller is better, the console and OS looks nicer and runs smoother as well as the fact that pretty much every multiplatform game will run better on PS4. I believe that PS4 is the better long term investment. As for me right now I see XB1 as an impulse buy just because they have a few games out now, although I think they've put all their eggs in one basket and the lineup will be pretty dry most of next year. If I did buy an XB1 I honestly think it would be a waste of my money as I already have a PS4 which I believe will be much better overall throughout the whole gen.

EDIT: I'd just like to add that I haven't really had a console that most of my friends own since the PS2 and trading games again is awesome! Saves so much money
