I have PS4, so obvious which one I want to win. However I do hate how horrible Sony fans are at times, so a part of me sometimes does want xbox one to crash them certain months.

The XBO might win Black Friday according to some. So your evil, hidden MS side can rejoice.

If you had asked this question when Mattrick was still in charge, I'd say Sony.
Now that Spencer is in charge? I'd rather have MS win.

I don't see how anyone that's a fan of the industry can say Sony is more of a "good guy" than Spencer-led Xbox. Sony has openly lied to consumers (which they got into hot water for, thankfully...Ubisoft should be next), and unlike MS they didn't apologize and try to make things right. Their two most recent first-party games were rushed, glitchy messes (Driveclub and LBP3), they take cheap shots at the competition, and they gave the bird to all Vita adopters.

But gaming is known as having some of the most cynical fans around. It shouldn't surprise anyone that people hate "the new guy", and it REALLY doesn't surprise me people hate an American corporation...as if they're any different.



I would say the XONE!
Because Sony fans are irritating me.
and i love supporting the underdog. (sinne XONE got soooooooooooooooooooo much hate before it released)



Pocky Lover Boy! 

PS4 easily, it's got the games I want. I just wished that Sony was willing to take more risks with new IPs and when purchasing new developer teams, more Japanese developer teams to be exact (Seriously, those guys know how to program their shit). The PS3 had a lot of variaty when it came to exclusives, I hope the same applies with the PS4, just with more ambitious tittles.



I'm now filled with determination.

isnt it someone or something which people thinks that has a little chance of winning?

The title should be "Nintendo has already lost. Who do you choose to win?" jk
 
Since I am a Nintendo fan,I voted and went with my next best man, the PS4.



nice

Interesting opinions.
Winning as in having majority marketshare doesn't mean much as long as the other console is selling decently.
That being said, I feel its better for PS4 to be on top, since not only do they seem to handle being ahead better than Xbox, Sony is literally betting everything they have on the PS4, they aren't going to be able to make it as competitive as MS has with the XB1.

A desperate Xbox has the means while complacent xbox just follows the trends a la kinect. Meanwhile, a desperate Sony is more likely to go bankrupt, and while some like that concept in practice any of the big 3 going out would be bad.

Not to mention, Nintendo would get snuffed out by a solo xbox. The gaming world is already becoming more Americanized even with Sony maintaining the balance.

wikipedia says an adventure game is "a video game in which the player assumes the role of protagonist in an interactive story driven by exploration and puzzle-solving" (e.g. zelda). very narrowly defined, that's what an adventure game is (it does not include rpgs, tho adventure games can have rpg elements, but does include text adventures like maniac mansion and ace attorney, etc.). an action game is "a video game... that emphasizes physical challenges, including hand–eye coordination and reaction-time." this is less clearly defined because it can include everything from fighting games to shooters and platformers (action platformers like mega man and contra, for example).

none of what you're describing really fits either category. they are open-world, sandbox-y games that implement a few scattered elements of the action/adventure toolkit, so to speak, but are not really action/adventure games at bottom. obviously these genres overlap--a game like the wonderful 101, for example, is a real-time strategy game + an action/adventure game (more the latter than the former really). gunstar heroes and contra 3 are action platformers. bayonetta 1/2 and dmc are pure action games. so i feel as tho we're not really talking about the same thing here. open-world games on the wii u will eventually include (in some way) the next zelda and xenoblade chronicles x, and monster hunter 3 has some elements of that, as do the dragon quest rpgs that haven't yet been localized (and probably never will). lego city undercover is the closest to gta gameplay there is on wii u, and i guess there's also watch dogs (which happens to suck). you're right that there aren't many games of that sort on nintendo platforms, and part of it is surely due to technical limitations. that's not being disputed i don't think. what you're describing just aren't action/adventure games (uncharted, tomb raider etc. are).

stop being so biased please!!! An adventure game is a game that you go on an adventure. Simples! RPG's are nearly all adventure games.

If that was the only definition than Heavy Rain is the best adventure game (and one of the only) ever made. It's really grasping at straws only saying a game like zelda is an adventure game. I do more exploring in GTA 5 for example then i ever would in a game like that. 

ANd nearly all the games i listed have puzzling solving of some sort, exploration and an inter acting story. And if the the game isn't sandbox like GTA or Far Cry then the amount of exploring you can do is seriously limited.
