I'm not sure why you make it such a point to say Sony sacrificed innovation when they did quite a bunch of innovations.
Just because xbox one went over the top and added garage door opening functionality doesn't mean sony sacrificed.

EDIT: Additionally, and I'm not calling you a liar, but it sounds like you didn't even play ps4 as much as you say you did. Sounds like your friend got an xbox1 and you went over to play it. I guess I am calling you a liar. Oh no, but it's not because you didn't like ps4, it's just the way you gloss over the details "we checked out the UI but there wasn't much there", "played for a while but got bored respawning and shooting in killzone". That sounds like someone who is trying to be vague.

EDIT2: No cross game chat? No mention of streaming? Yeah, no, take your viral somewhere else.

PS4 is innovative?

Are you about to tell me how xbone is and ps4 is not?
Or are you just making throwaway comments to improve your post count?

I'm dead serious. Tell me how the PS4 is innovative... Tell me what new things it has brought to the table for console gaming... I just see a more powerful PS3.
I'm sure it has and will get many great games, but it is in no way innovative to the gaming industry.

Tell me what's innovative about the xbox one

 No one buys a console anymore 'just to play' games.

Very true. That is why Xbone is outselling PS4 by that much. PS5 will launch quite soon with a snap feature to compete with the Xbone.

Nope Ps4 with an Update will suffice. Does the Ps4 and Xbox Do literaly the same thing ? exept 100$ and Titanfall game ?

@ frequency... you know that's kinda uncool frequency.... we went back and forth there for second and in my last response to you I was trying to be decent, not come across as arrogant or provoke more argument.
I just wanted to know if that was honestly what you thought,
that I was talking about all consoles and not just the ps4 and x1 specifically.

wasn't trying to be an ass.. you coulda answered me.


I don't know man A LOT of people quoted you and asked you questions that you never responded to. Me included some people were really just curious(like me) about some things and you never answered either....sooooooooo yeah man.....yeah lol.



The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...

This is like the people who brag about their heated swiveling cup holders and "cool" purple headlights, spinning rims, how many TVs it has, and useless look at me gadgets in their brand new new car...meanwhile it has less horsepower than everything else and an economy car suspension, you know,the things that actually matter for a cars primary purpose?

Priorities.

You keep your Bluetooth, ill keep my 750 HP when I see you revving at the light grinning.


Based on your statements you are cearly you are playing on the wrong system. If all you really care about is Horsepower then clearly you should be in the PC Camp. To keep your analogy going, the difference between a PS4 and an Xbox One is like the difference between a Honda Civic (xbone) and a Honda Civic SI (PS4). Is there a difference? You bet ya, but nobody who REALY cares about power would be caught dead driving either one of them when there are much more powerful options on the market.



Long Live SHIO!

Very good OP. You actually made me consider getting a Xbone down the track. I currently only play WiiU and 360 and had no intention of getting anymore consoles but this thread has got me excited!!

to be honest, I was just playing nice to try and get the goof to answer me. dude was wrong, knew it, knew I had him and decided, after busting out some intellectual nonsense, to suddenly take the sanctimonious high road and not respond anymore.
see, this way he could pat himself on the back and turn a losing argument around by getting the last word. 
the worst kind of contributor to these forums are the ones that have no problem jumping into a post and insulting the OP, then quickly turning deaf, dumb, and stupid when the OP razzes them back a little bit. cowards, anonymous tough guys, you gotta love 'em.

as far as me not responding to you, I might have missed it, or simply ignored it depending on how you posed your question.
my post is an honest one, just a few quick reasons why I walked away from both consoles feeling the X1 was the better of two. 
for that.... for having that opinion and, OH MY GOD...  liking the X1 more and daring to point out my personal observations about the PS4's limitations in comparison, most responses were of the juvenile, meritless variety that didn't deserve an answer; I'm a liar, I'm a Microsoft intern (lol), I'm trolling.... just a bunch of nonsense. 
like the post right above this one... just silly, argumentative, confrontational nonsense. unnecessary.
or that other guy, Ashadian towards the top of the page, who somehow.. amazingly I might add, thought I was saying that people don't primarily play games on their consoles, they watch movies and do other stuff. 
A lot of people in here don't take the time to read what's right in front of them, come across one thing they disagree with and immediately turn to attack mode without comprehending the entire context of what's written.

Whatever you asked me, I'm not gonna comb through 21 pages trying to find it, if it was a respectfully written question and not some fanboy, butthurt drivel.. ask me again and I'll answer it. 
no big deal if you don't.

I'm sure it has and will get many great games, but it is in no way innovative to the gaming industry.

Let's see now.

1) Livestreaming direct from the console
2) Record previous 15 minutes of gameplay at all times
3) Built in clip editor to get only the bits you want to use uploaded
4) Ability to stream gameplay to the vita through local network or WAN
5) Touchpad input on a game controller
6) Built in light bar on controller for motion control titles
7) Low level suspend state, able to continue downloads and perform updates while in standby
8) Deep social integration (account setup directly accesses social media to gather avatars, name, etc, tightly packs the privacy options for these elements too)
9) Title upgrades from PS3 to PS4
10) Ability to stream ALL audio through the 3.5mm jack on the controller, not just voice communications
And a bunch more I really don't care to list at 3:21am.

Clearly there are plenty of innovations on both consoles, some people just dont want to see it.



There is only one thing that matters to me. I owned all 3 last gen and will own MS and Sony this gen....Maybe WiiU if they make a proper Metroid. Sony has yet to be outdone on first party games. MS simply can't compare on this front. Nintendo has many great ones, but I personally don't get anywhere near as many hours of enjoyment out of them. Sony exclusives have been the best since PS1, with the excpetion of N64.  It was around at the same time and had better ones.  Nintendo rocks but it isn't a very good comparison to the other two for me, because it is so much more heavily focused on young gamers, and I'm not young.

there he is!!
still waiting for you to answer my question Frequency.
Did you honestly think I was talking about ALL consoles ever released when I said, 'people don't buy consoles anymore just to play games'

See, either way I got you. 
Don't answer, you're running away, as you have been.
Answer the question, I trap you in your own disingenuous logic or illustrate your abject stupidity. 
.... of course you already know that which is why you haven't responded, so that sorta cancels out the second option above, which would leave your insincere reasoning glaringly alone and obvious.

(see, you shouldn't have started with me in the first place... next time try leaving something constructive with your initial post instead of insulting the person)

It's essentially not down to specifications or features but what exclusives they can push out over the consoles lifetime.
We can be sure of the xbox one and ps4 having a decent life cycle, where as the wiiu's life cycle remains to be seen at this point.
