I haven't decided which one I want to vet at launch yet. Both seem virtually the same as far as hardware and both look to have some cool games coming within the firs year or so. PSN is my biggest concern for PS4. All the PS3 games I ha e played lag and even the dashboard stuff like trophies seem to take forever to access. As far as Xbox One always being online and concerns about being watch through the kenect... so what if microsoft sees me doing a line ok coke off of a prostitute's bottom.
I will be gettin a ps4 instead of an xbox uno and with the $100 im saving im. Buying booze and throwing myself a farewell xbox party.
This should answer your question.
I am going to be switching over to Sony! :D
I'm with you I'm done with X-bone and am all Sony now. Today I'm hunting down a bass guitar to order online so I can smash my 360Quote:

Sony was the first to use the internet for consoles, the first to use an HDD in them, the first to offer online gaming and content dl from online, the first in all the disc based media.
the xb1 is trying really hard to do what the ps3 was already doing, while the ps4 does what xb1 can't. In terms of hardware, having that slightly more powerful hardware will give it the edge in game development, allowing it to play more games for a longer time frame of development, as well as playing more highly developed games.
the state of the xbox is soo bad, and ps4 is soo good that the stock market has rapidly shifted in favor of this.. as in.. people who aren't even into games or play them know xbox is dead and have put their money on the winning horse.

it's not even a question of which has what features, the only ones buying xb1 now are the fanatics who chose to ignore facts, the illiterate/deaf/blind, and the unknowing parents/grandparents of some 9yo.
imo.. go one way, and don't support the other.. tired of the "exclusive" issues of today as well, going with a single, powerfull system will coax these developers to pass on the exclusivity thing and we as gamers will benefit from richer libraries that don't bust the piggy bank.
ps4=
more games
more media
more freedom (region free and can play used games, does not require internet.)
more capable (has blutooth connectivity for other devices, standard av out for those without hdtv's, and better hardware)
it simply has alot more.. for $100 less.
really want a camera that bad? you can buy one and still spend less in total than xboxdone.
watching the games side by side at ea.. (watching at xbox, PLAYING at sony) the quality of games was better, but noticeable was that the graphics were staggeringly better on the ps4 titles that were cross platform (thanks to faster ram and a more gaming centric architecture).
Currently leaning heavily towards the PS4, but not 100% yet.
I just had to find the trailer for mirror's edge 2, Infamous second son, Destiny, and FFXV. I wasn't looking for a reason to buy another console. Why did I have to find one. The $100 savings sells the ps4 for me. The support of selling and trading used games is almost as crucial as the price. Trading games means they still have value after purchase where as Xbox's model means I damn well better love everything I buy because I'm stuck with it; and that's sight unseen cause there's little hope of rental.
I didn't want to get into this round of console wars. I didn't want another console. Sony nearly has me sold on the ps4...
Sony has me on their side right now and i'm looking to buying a PS4 unless Microsoft pulls a game changer out of their money bag.
Can I come? As the resident Off-Topic boozehound, I think I can contribute.Quote:

Although I prefer Playstation, I've never bashed Microsoft stuff - until now. I see no reason someone would want an XBone over a PS4. Like it's been mentioned, everything about the hardware and, usually, the software, is inferior. Since I can't judge by exclusives anymore (MGS games used to sell the Playstations to me) I have to decide based on how I get more for less. Sony is kickin' *** and saying "**** taking names".
pre ordered 800 xb1's for my shop, then cancelled the order. They asked me why....... lol......... I plan to sell good, reliable products, that everybody can use, being in a military oriented town, that takes about 98% of my customers not able to use the xbox by regulation, plus I get enough money, ripping off soldiers is REALLY bad for business.
