I appreciate your respectful reply. I always brace myself for battle whenever I quote someone!

Not sure when/if they changed the cloud rules.  I have two PS4s and sometimes I start a game on one console and continue it on the other. When I had PS+, I had to download the saves myself. They uploaded once a day but not anymore. Now, I have to decide which games I'll play in the living room (mostly kid stuff like Crash and LBP3) and which games I'm going to play in the game room. If there's a way to transfer saves between consoles, I don't know it. Tempted to get ps+ again solely for the cloud saves!

 

And yeah, new games matter to me as well but I'm mostly about building A HUGE library and just playing whatever I'm in the mood for. Sometimes it's the newest graphical spectacle. Sometimes, it's Peggle with my wife or Jak and Daxter.

I try not to go to battle with people. Anyone that I tend to "battle" with I have just started ignoring. You will notice there is a certain someone I haven't responded to.  They are very high on my "never read, never reply" list.

I have one PS4 hooked up to my TV, and one close to my router so I could go wired.  Wired it for online stuff where I need a good connection all the time.

So PS+ is important there. Upload and download saves whenever.  So XB allowing that "free of charge" is absolutely a perk.

Having a 4k drive is also a perk. I just wasn't talking about those perks.

BC is great and all, but it isn't enough to tilt the scales imo.  It is the side item.

The wii U had the perfect BC.  It lacked in third party.

PS4 has crappy BC , but it has exclusives and third party nailed.

XB1 is right in that middle. The BC is better and more specific. They also are getting a lot of the third party games. The issue is with other games are lacking.

So none of the systems are perfect.  None of them I chose for BC though.

No argument here. My current favorite console is the Switch. No backwards, comp. No 4K. No HDR. At the end of the day, it's games (and maybe that portability factor. I can't lie...). And if I were totally honest, if I were suggesting a console to a new owner, the Xbone would probably be at the bottom of the list--even though I play it a crazy amount of time. 

Anyway, enjoyed talking with you. Until we cross paths, again. Take care.
