It was inevitable really, but I think with every generation that goes on Microsoft gains a bigger userbase. Anyways, I think the X1 right now is a better value than the PS4, considering what's packed in the box.


Dude i own both and really it isent.  
As fun as talking to the bone to turn it on is, PS4 ruthlessly faster boot up and game loads are worth way more.  Bone is a fast mustang but Ps4 is a race spec Ferrari.

This gen you got some of the best devs in the world working exclusivly on the more powerfull easy to program console.  Ill tell you PS4 is gonna slaughter the bone once Sony first partys start dropping thier games.  

 

Well that just might turn out to be true but, so can the opposite - who knows. Right now, I think both are in the same boat in being consoles with almost nothing to play or show off their 'greatness'. There's only so much Killzone and Forza one man can play before he gets bored, and goes back to his PS360 - which I assume a lot of games are doing right now. So saying one is better than the other because it's faster is nonesence because RIGHT NOW, both seem equally matched. However, I think the X1 is built better, it just looks better, the UI looks better and i'm sure will get even better, even the HDMI cord and mic in the box are better, it comes with a camera,...it's just is a better value IMO, but that's just my opinion. One appears to be mainly a gaming console, while the other appears to be an entertainment console. So in that sense as well the X1 I think is a better value.

If the bone can totally get rid of me needing a box from my cable provider, and i can turn on and of my tv with it id say it can match the PS4 in some markets.

But can it do that ? i dont want a half assed entertainment console, i want one that takes over TV/Cablebox/remote

ha ha, yeah right,...and pay $200 instead of $100 more? You're already complaining about paying $100 more, and now you want MS to put in even more entertainment features? I just seems that no matter how great an entertanment console and value for money the X1 is, it will never be enough or the right price for Sony fans.


Paying more for very little, if they want to be a big bad entertaiment system then it best do everything evtertaiment.  Cause as far as gaming PS4 will flat out destroy it.  What does bone do that makes the extra worth it ?? voice commands and what.  

500 console, 50 Live 25 rechargable battery 80 LE Forza 5 (only decent ex and it lacks content, not including day one $dlc)  add tax and im at $740.  

PS4 400 PSN + 50 + 60 Killzone - add tax and im at $576 ( im not counting the $$ worth of free PSN+ games)

So where is this incredable value you speak of  ? For a vast majority of people, bone will not be worth the price.
