Do you pay XBL Gold for online multiplayer?
If yes, there is no reason for you to pay another subscription. Use XOne to play multiplayer games, and on PS4 just play single player and/or exclusives, and you're set...


But Psplus offers a better value, even with the few bugs/maintenance.

I don't think it does...

I guess it's subjective, but on both consoles you get 2 free games per month, it just depends which games you like more...

No, PS+ does offer the better value. And so far has been the better network. XBL lost that title when coming into this new gen.

Besides the IGC (which is something XBL copied from them) with PS+ you do have better share functions (at least you can take screen shots) and SharePlay (which i personally think is the most innovative network feature of the current gen thus far).

To OP. Maybe I don't game as much as some/most, but I never really notice these network issues. I have been able to go online whenver I wanted to. Can't help but feel these issues are slightly exagerated. Having said that, I see no point in paying for two online services. If you are ok with buying a majority of your games on the XB1, then stick to XBL. In truth I don't even see the point in having both the PS4 and XB1. If the XB1 is going to be your primary console, you should sell the PS4 and get a WiiU. Having a console for the odd 1/2 exclusives per year that may interest you is a waste of money.
