To be fair and prove I'm not trying to sell the X1 for MS let me post a few things that I consider draw backs.

 

1. The console itself is a mammoth in size like the original xbox. the PS4 is small and flashy looking. What I predict happening is Microsoft will be forced to bring out a r modeled version a short time into the one's life. whilts the PS4 may never need a re design. So for us jumping the gun we will be pissed when the new smaller box comes out inevitably.

2. Kinnect/price. I had to find the good in connect but my original view point of it was that it wasn't necessary. I wished a version that didn't include it existed. It probably will later but once again us launch buyers are stuck with it so I will have to make due.

3.The Hard drive not being able to upgrade. these next gen games are huge and they force you to install them. We will be stuck with limited libraries on our side.

4. The resolution issue. It doesn't really bother me but it's a little annoying that it exist. I'll just right if off as early struggles for now.  If it is reoccurring I can live with it though.

Edit: I don't think anyone should turn a blind eye to the low points of their console of choice. All that does is make things easier for the rich people at MS Sony and Nintendo. With blind fandom they can screw us over and over and all we care about is what is wrong with the other side.

I would like to see some more people post things they don't like about their brand of choice if that isn't a problem.

1. Most of Sony's first party games don't do it for me.

2. I don't care for online gaming.

3. By then I will most likely have moved on to newer systems.

If I end up getting PS4, it'll be for one reason; if it has games I want. So far it doesn't. So I will wait and see.

I will give a short list of why I will be getting an Xbox one instead.

1. Both sides have done some nice marketing to keep their consumers with them as they move to new generations. Things like MS' gamer score which they will be using in order to give discounts down the road. though that isn't a seller for me, What I do have on my mind is the loads of digital games I have bought on xbox live, as for disc based games they are not backwards compatible on either side , but I do think I will be able to retrieve my purchased digital content (somebody confirm this if possible please). Another thing is my current Xbl subscription that will last a little over a year.

2. Call of duty Ghost: That is basically the only thing I play (I did take a break to explore GTA5 but I'm back on cod. again.) Xbox will have the largest available players in america (the overall sales does not matter, I cannot play against japanese or australian people online) I trust the online service that MS has offered for years and I am curious why you say playstation plus is a reason.

3. Kinect 2.0: We are at a graphical bridge. I do not think anyone wouldn't agree that this will be the advancement in generations that we see the least amount of graphical improvements from the predecessors. The days of being amazed by graphics are a thing of the past. with Kinect 2.0 offers, I see a bright future in a wide range of things I can do with my box unrelated to games but still are very cool.

4. Not a selling point but a cool feature. the ability to capture anything on screen. that combined with the ability to be a pass through display with anything with and HDMI connection makes for some good high def capture from a wide range of stuff. (finally the cod videos in my vault can see the world or vice versa)

5. Controller preference: I won cod tournaments on the 360 and got beat in the 1st round of a ps3 tournament from an average player because my big hands couldn't do anything with the toy of a controller design the ps3 had.

6. Titan Fall. I don't get much games but this one is a must have for a long running cod fan like myself. It's a cute idea that it will come to the PS4 later but I have two problems with that. *we don't no how long after it's xbox release in march it will take before it lands in the lap of PS4 owners, could be a few months, could be a year, could be never. * By the time that it does come it will be played out and the franchise will generally be considered an xbox thing. So just like call of duty, I expect to consistently see more people online on the xbox version.

You are the reason COD is the same each and every year. Thanks.

Why is PS Plus a reason to buy a PS4?


I would say the Free games that you get are extremely worth it, but that is just me. Do you not see any value in PS+?

Is PS+ free now? If not, there aren't any free games.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Veknoid_Outcast on 27 October 2013

The first two bullet points are good, but isn't the third point a reason NOT to get a PS4, at least not immediately? If Sony and third-parties are still supporting PS3, there's no real rush to get a PS4.

Slightly off-topic, here is a cool thread where people listed three reasons to get every 8th gen system: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=170398

I would like to indicate other reasons that have contributed to my day one purchase of the PS4.

The Price Point of $400 is quite reasonable and well within my price range including of course the additional two games and PS+ I will be purchasing on day 1.

The reputation of Sony in regards to home consoles is outstanding and while the PS3 had a rocky start i would like to say that I have had more fun with the console than any other console to date and therefore expect great things from the PS4

From what I have come to understand is a greatly improved controller.

2014 for Xbox 360:

- Titanfall
- Project Spark
- Fable Anniversary

and the 360 is 1 year older than the PS3 already. So wake me up when Sony announce such games in 2015 for the PS3.

Fable Anniversary is a remake that was supposed to release this year and the other two games are only getting a 360 release because most of the people will not have moved to next gen by the first half of 2014.

Seriously the whole "the Xbox is a year older" argument is completely pointless in this situation, as what counts is the point when the companies release the successor to their respective console. So to rephrase you're basically saying "look the 360 is getting those games half a year after its successor released, so the PS3s support will only be as good if it gets games of equal size a year and half after its successor released" and that doesn't sound very smart now does it?
