Hi All

SO before I start I don't want people slagging either console off!!

I am looking into buying a PS4 or a Xbox 1. I was thinking about the Wii U but for some reason it doesn't appeal to me.

So been doing so research on both console are very impressive. I am thinking a PS4 as I have a Vita and like the idea of Remote play. both have some great game and I am into FPS and games like Tomb Raider something with a challenge and that makes me feel like I am getting my moneys wroth.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks

get a PS4, if you have the Vita, its a nice feature. Unless you are into Halo / racers games, PS4 will be great for you.

fixed that for you

haha, seriously though, the PS4 has the same multiplats as the one, he already has a vita so it seems the obvious choice in this case. Games should be the decider though, if he likes FPS, he will probably prefer XB1 controller. PS4 controller is really good, but the triggers still not perfect . thumbsticks are really smooth though

Its the Vita feature that is sort of pushing me to the PS4 as you said most games these days are cross platform. I have played on both system

and the pads although different in feel I feel pretty conformable with both.

Yeah, the post rule is dumb, but it is what it is.

The Klondike bar rule is bad ass though. I just had two of em myself.

If you like shooters, halo 5 is coming out around this same time next year on xbox 1. To some people Halo is the only thing they care about games wise, if you are like those people you should get an xbox 1.

Oh yeah, as for a real answer.

Just go with the platform with the exclusive franchises you're interested in.

My personal opinion? Get a PS4. Why? Both of these systems will mostly share the same library. Chances are, the PS4 will have the better versions of most multiplats... plus Sony tends to deliver more exclusives. Most of their 1st party offerings may not be that great, but eh, neither are MS's. And hey, Sony does have the occasional 1st party gem.

I hate to recommend either system at the moment, they're both lagging on compelling games. They should both be hitting their stride by this time next year though.

It is a bit of a crappy rule but hay ho.

Think it will be a PS4 not into Halo really although I did enjoy that game. Plus the Vite remote play is a massive thing after thinking about it as my wife and kid like to watch X Factor it mean I can sit and shoot some bad guys! haha

I think both consoles will do well in the next 12 month and if i had enough money I would get both.

Thanks Guys!! :-)

If you have a Vita I'd get a PS4 unless there are specific Xbox One/Wii U exclusives you want.

1. You need 500 posts to start a new thread on SW.
2. This is not a SW topic.
3. SW is the absolutely worst place to ask these questions.
