Hope you have your flamesuit ready...

Kinect is nice for Kinect games. When it works (it does most of the time for me), navigating through the UI is great. I hope you enjoy it and seriously, Forza Horizon 2 is a must. You should also try Titanfall if you like that type of game.

Thanks. Yeah I'll keep trying the Kinect and see how I go. I was honestly shocked at the visuals and responsiveness of FH2. It's the most fun I've had with a racing game since Mario Kart 8.

Haha ok, i think it's going to be very funny when you will trade your X1 for ps4 next year ;D i don't think you made a smart decision. :P

I can't see that happening. Uncharted 4 is the only thing that looks good to me and I'm not going to hang onto my PS4 for one game.

Already this thread has had several borderline posts. Enough of it. Next one will be given a ban so be more careful in future.

OT: Enjoy your Xbox One!

Thanks man. Not sure what's with the hate.


You kinda paved the road for it yourself, especially when you didn't actually buy the PS4 to use it, but to sell it. It's kinda misleading, and I'm pretty sure you knew you'd get those responses. It's sort of (but not quite baiting) when you didn't even want the PS4 to begin with.

Not saying the responses are justified, but it was bound to happen, and you probably knew it.

I would have just saved my money and got both. You are going to be missing out on so much. You had 6-8 years of gaming on one console on lock down. You had to lose money in the trade in unless you sold it on ebay. Regardless it is your choice.

I know. The problem is that I have this thing called a wife who dislikes my hobby enough as it is. 3 consoles in the house plus my gaming PC might make her snap.

And so? You tolerate her stuff. She has no right to say no to your stuff. Unless you're compromising funds for house related bills etc.

Nah I can afford to spend a few hundred dollars here and there without it affecting anything. You're right though. I don't know why I feel guilty buying gaming stuff. She's been (unsuccessfully) trying to get me to stop gaming now for 8 years. lol.

I just recently sold my PS4, and am looking forward to get an XB1 when the MCC comes out in a couple of weeks

I'm very happy with my decision to swap, as at the end of the day it's all about the games and the Xbox One has the exclusives I want.


Exactly. That's all that matters. Hope you have an amazing time.



WHO IS JESUS REALLY?

Why did you buy the PS4 in the first place then? If the Xbox has the exclusives you wanted why didn't you just get it first. I never understand this.

Nice purchase, looking forward to getting one if Quantum Break is any good.

Bought it to sell for $399AU to sell it at a profit (they go for $549AU). Couldn't find any buyers willing to pay $450 or more so I just decided to swap it for the Xbox.

haha. So it wasnt because of games as you said in the OP. I would just remove that part of the OP because its obvious youre stealthing for nerdrage and its pointless along with the thread title, why can't it just be "Just got an Xbox One" or "Couldn't sell my PS4 for profit so I finally got an Xbox One" But I digress. Enjoy.

I thought putting it in Microsoft Discussion would help avoid it. If I had put it in Sony Discussion I would have called that flamebaiting.

Also, I did use the PS4 when I decided I couldn't sell it for a profit. It's not a bad system and like I said, it has quite a few advantages over the X1, but the games just don't appeal to me as much as the X1.
