Xbox One vs. PS4

Gizmag compares the specs (and other features) of the Sony PS4 and Microsoft Xbox One.

Parapalegic Batman with no Kriptonite vs Pre-Crisis Superman wouldn't be any less 1 sided.

doctorstrange4725d ago

To be fair, Batman would still win that one. Cause he's Batman.

Rhaigun4725d ago

What about Knightfall Batman vs Man of Tomorrow Superman?

;)

A $400 stronger console with little restrictions and requirements versus a $500 weaker console(that suppose to have "cloud computing") with too many restrictions and requirements.

sonic9894725d ago

the PS4 can do all those cloud stuff
so i will say PS 0100 for life ( if you know what i mean )

BallsEye4725d ago

my phone can do cloud stuff, I bet my watch could do, but it was not designed for it from scratch and it does not have a cloud system to connect to, therefore your argument is silly. It's like saying, I have FPS games on my smart phone, my smarthphone can do FPS games so I dont need a ps4.

AAACE54725d ago

I'm curious to see how people react to XOne's little differences! Such as the system won't work unless you have Kinect hooked up!

Rhaigun4725d ago

@ballseye
We know you're trying to be funny, because there is no reason you would make that comment, and still visit this site everyday. Problem is, its not funny. Go home troll.

sonic9894725d ago

@Ballseye
look what i am saying is microsoft are making big deal out of that in game cloud computation which we all know is silly even if you are using the best compression and decompression hardware or algorithms still that wont solve the problem because networks cant transmit the data at a constant rate ( bus bandwidth ) .
and as we know sony built the PS4 hardware around gaikai cloud technology so i think in that regard sony and MS are equal ( maybe )
btw i would like to see how things turn out in the end but sony completely have the upper hand with more advanced hardware .

Enough with the X1 vs P4.. We all know who's going to win because its no longer debatable

Boody-Bandit4725d ago

Agreed.
Which is why I'm already dialing back responding to articles like this. MS will be looking up at Sony ALL next gen if they don't make drastic changes to their policies regarding DRM, online connectivity at price point.

urwifeminder4725d ago

I cant wait to play forza 5 and a next gen halo really looking forward to the release of xboxone even next gen as a whole pc games will finally move forward all multiplats I will get on pc though.

HammadTheBeast4725d ago

Good luck. While I don't agree with your choice, I hope the next halo is like 2 or 3.

urwifeminder4725d ago

Thanks Beast I will have a blast hope you enjoy your gaming action.

BallsEye4725d ago (Edited 4725d ago )

From article

"Used game blocking

XBOX ONE - up to publishers
PS 4 - no"

LIE - sony stated themselves (which you can read in many articles on main page) that it is up to publishers to apply DRM.

Fix:

XBOX ONE - up to publishers
PS 4 - up to publishers

If you press a disagree have balls to respond and give a valid argument.

Biased article, when presenting controllers, says nothing about new trigger rumble and pressure..

imt5584725d ago

Fix:

XBOX ONE - up to publishers
PS 4 - up to publishers

Wrong!

XBox One has DRM inside it, god damn. Imagine, The Witcher 3 will be DRM free on PS4 and PC, but not on Xbox One because console has DRM inside. Too bad!

BallsEye4725d ago

Wrong! It's UP TO PUBLISHERS in xbox one. NOTHING IS FORCED. Please check out angryjoe interview with major nelson, he actually ASKS about witcher 2 drm situation and major nelson answers- if this is what publisher want to do (not have drm on their product) then we will fully support them.

STOP SPREADING FANBOY LIES

imt5584725d ago

But Microsoft forcing DRM, Sony not! And that's the difference. The Witcher 3 will be free DRM, but sorry, dude, no online check-in within 24 hours on XBone, there is no play.

HammadTheBeast4725d ago

BallsEye, are you crazy?

I saw the EXACT same interview, Angry Joe asked him "Would publishers be able to remove DRM?" And all Nelson said was "we're looking into ways to help publishers meet their needs".

doctorstrange4725d ago

Valid argument:
Used Game Blocking
Xbox One - up to publishers, but 24hr check in required on any game, will block singleplayer + multiplayer if not connected.

PS4 - online used game blocking up to publishers, singleplayer not. EA + Ubisoft saying they won't do online passes, Sony saying they won't do online passes.

iistuii4725d ago

Of course it's a lie. It honestly doesn't worry me either way. My pc iPad & console are connected 24/7 & in 10 years or more I've had my Internet down 2 Days in total. My iTunes music, steam & origin games are all mine & so will my X1 games. Welcome to the future. The only things I have a problem with on X1 are kinect, I don't & won't use it, should be optional & the digital downloads should be more like steam, a lot cheaper.

Rhaigun4725d ago

Tell this to all the service men and women who are stationed in places without the internet. Then, try to explain why Microsoft doesn't care.

koolaid2514725d ago

If you're in the service you shouldn't be playing video games lol.

nix4725d ago

iistuii, it's not about "i'm on internet always so no problem", it's about where the gaming is heading. you may have enough money to buy and stay online but not everyone is that lucky.

the "others" unfortunate ones will not be able to share games, play second hand games, play offline if MS' consoles becomes a norm.

you should actually feel lucky that xbox one is coming to Spain this year or whichever country you're living.

The_KELRaTH4725d ago

Whether or not it's up to the publishers to use DRM for copy protection that has nothing to do with the X1 blocking the use of 2nd hand games.
The PS4 does not block 2nd hand games.

WalterWJR4725d ago

Xbox blocks used games and you can't play any games without checking in every 24hrs.

Playstation does not, if you still can't tell the difference between the two then you need to read a book.

If publishers want to add online DRM to there games they can just like any game on ps3/xbox 360.

less balls more brain.

pompombrum4725d ago

Disagreed.. why because it isn't the same. Microsoft can control all elements of used game blocking if they/publisher wants.. on the PS4, Sony can only control the online components of games.

So to fix your fix:

Xbox One: Up to publishers for single player and mp

PS4: Single player no blocking, online up to publishers.

Naughty Dog Was Reportedly Divided On Joel's Controversial Fate During Development Of TLOU Part 2

Naughty Dog was reportedly divided on the controversial fate of Joel in The Last of Us Part 2 during the game's development.

Cacabunga25d ago

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot24d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose25d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE25d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername24d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy25d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde25d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8625d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8625d ago (Edited 25d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300025d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle25d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7725d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
