... your list is incorrect...if you cannot even get the basics right, why should anyone listen to you.. for starters you know the PS4 is region free... cooling/noise both have problems but the XBO needs a massive box to cool itself down... as for software updates. Well Sony has definately had less but bigger meatier features... while XBO has had more. Horses for courses. So patches, I think that one can be left open, while the others are definately fine lines of you being incorrect and what people dont care about as much as you. So what about about hardware specs, or perhaps asthetics, or perhaps replacing the hard disk, or perhaps how the controller doesnt require batteries or perhaps how the PS4 controller is better... you see anyone can make a list...some people will agree, some wont. But you know how to really decide which is considered the better console.... shhhh don't tell anyone, this is secret, and you might know.... CONSOLE SALES!! The market has currently decided which the better console is, you can dispute that, but ultimately if they are priced at the same, people believe that the PS4 is the better product... or they would buy an XBO... there is no argument there, that is FACT. Just cause you shout it, doesnt make it true. Sales is the ONLY indicator of what people think is the better product, especially if the product selling less has to undercut on price and still sells worse. Now lets get back on topic about will it sell more in November and December. Personally I think it will be close, but should still see a PS4 win. |
Thank you for this, you saved me a few minutes to write the exact same thing...
I like it how he mentions region-free, a feature Microsoft discovered only recently, and only after their 180, as the original plan was not only always-online 24 hour check-in to your parole officer, but also region locking in all aspects...
You skipped some more advantages, I'll single out one: VOICE COMMANDS!
I find it pitiful and embarassing that a console whose major selling point was an integrated camera allowing for voice navigation, actually peforms much worse than a console with a completely optional peripheral... And that console X still cannot use voice commands through a headset, which console P could from the start... And that console P supports numerous languages, while console X still has troubles with English...
And of course that console X has more updates since it launched completely bare... It needed an update to be able to show available hard drive space, after all...
Unlike some people's hopes, wishes and dreams, majority of people are not sheep purchasing expensive products because of louder shouting salesmen. Sure, that used to be the case in 1950s, but in today's socially interconnected world with all information at the touch of a finger, the sensible consumer will choose a superior product without mistake.
But it's OK, it is nice for people to have choices, because we would not know how PS4 was excellent had we not had the inferior console to compare it with...
