Forums - Gaming - VGC forums 'Great Debate' entries. Which is the best next console? PS4 orX1?

Debates are only interesting with open minded people. I don't think you're gonna get that here, people will know what side they are on from the beginning and nothing is going to change their mind.

I guess I will just observe then

Me too (But you'll need this to defend yourself)



Current consoles: Wii U, Gaming PC

Add me on Wii U! Adamjh99

Add me on Steam! GamingByAdam

im Pro Ouya.



I think it might work better if you recruit two (or more) people before the fact, ask each to write 500 words in support of opposing views, and then create a thread. Afterward, members can post about which argument was more convincing and push the debate forward.

Good luck!

People will pretend to not want to take part in this. Then they'll go on in other threads and get banned for what they could have done here.

That concept is flawed. You won't find non-fanboys for such a divisive topic on this forum. Neutrals will always choose both or neither.

Pick at least a topic where there are actual arguments that aren't based on personal preference.


BULLSHIT.

Some people thought 360 was better and now think PS4 is better. That disproves your statement. I really dislike how we can't say something is  better without being biased anymore.

Sometimes one thing is better than another.



Wii U put in the corner with the Ouya :(

I should've said a neutral with rational thinking abilities. The moment you decide something based on personal preferences you stop being neutral.

The only rational reason I can currently think of of choosing one console over the other  is not having the money to buy the other. But that's not enough of an argument for a complex product like a console. Console choice comes down to 99% personal preference and experience. You can't defend personal preferences in a debate.

But for the sake of argument I would totally like to hear your neutral arguments about which console is better and why.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Hm. Interesting. However, I doubt most people are going to care if they aren't allowed to participate.

Also, Sony will win the poll no matter what. Even a Nintendo option would beat an Xbox option, even if it has nothing to do with the topic.


People can participate. They can give their opinions of the ongoing debate as it unfolds.

So No Wii U? Just X1 and PS4?


Having 3 people in a written debate would be chaos for putting points across and counter debating.
