I have owned a PS4 since 2015 and recently bought an Xbox One S. I bought the Xbox for the exclusives, mainly Forza as I used to love the Forza games on the 360. The PS4 will still be my main platform mainly due to most of my friends being there. The Xbox will definitely be my go to device for media though, thanks to Dolby Atmos for headphones :D

I loved Drive Club. Before GT Sport it was my go to game is I just wanted to chill out and drive beautiful cars

I play Odyssey on a base PS4, performance is far from perfect, but it's hardly unplayable. This is coming from someone who played The Witcher 3 at launch

I remember playing the demo and not really having the urge to go out and buy it. I dunno maybe it's just not my type of game. I do enjoy a lot of different types of games though, but Nier never appealed to me

I have the base PS4, which has always been pretty noisy at times. Still, I've never encountered any problems related to heat, so I've just learnt to ignore it

That is a great deal, though the Tomb Raider games will take a lot of getting used to if youve never played them before. I'd definitely go for it if you haven't already

Given how some recent games are performing on PS4, especially the base model, I’d say yes

@xantufrog: It is quite easy to get hold of an older CRT TV, at least here in the UK anyway

The best console is the one you most enjoy gaming on.

I'd take/send the console back and have it exchanged for another one. Something is clearly wrong
