PS4 Vs. XBOne, which is better?

"Every new console generation sees a battle of epic proportions play out among gamers and nerds alike. These battles involve players taking a stand against their opposition by flaming them, while defending the console of their dreams (or buyer’s remorse). These battles are bloody, and paint gamers in a terrible light, so I have set out to create an objective list as to which console is, in fact, superior. Let’s take a look at my top five reasons why PlayStation is five different battles for the systems to square off against each other." Says CalmDownTom

Well, it depends...
Do you want the most powerful next gen console? Get a PS4.
Do you want a machine that lets you watch tv on your tv? Then you know which one to get

2cents4613d ago

Most powerful vs most innovative

Most powerful vs most feature rich

Most powerful vs most accessible

Schwarzenegger vs Chuck Norris

Power ain't everything.

xHeavYx4613d ago

@2cents
Most innovative, feature rich, accessible? Care to provide some facts with your non sense?

2cents4613d ago

Heavy,

Innovation: kinect, heart rate, tof, eye tracking, gesture, voice, night vision, multiple OS for fidelity, haptic triggers. Voice converted to IR commands for multiple devices.

Features: hdmi throughput, snapping, companion apps, matchmaking, better achievements, Dedicated servers.

Accessible: controller, voice, gesture, windows platform sharing- pc, tablet, mobile, Xbox, home development with ID@Xbox

Just afew that spring to mind. Don't bother trying to catch me out coz it won't happen. I don't blindly follow anyone, I make opinions and decisions on the information available and pass my thoughts on the matter.

Nonsense? Looking in the mirror when you say that right?

Plenty, still waiting to see that 50% more power but then, if I'd just wanted a beefed up specs from a console, I'd stay on PC for gaming. I want a new experience, not just graphics. I know n4g is not a place to speak such things but I gotta admit MS is going more for that new experience than Sony. PS4 is ps3 on steroids. XO got azure, Kinect which this time proves to be awesome piece of hardware and is implemented in nearly every game (even bf4) snap, hdmi in videochat while gaming..plenty of stuff which I like. Not saying it's better, but more appealing atleast for me. Matter of preference.

Easy, PS4. Article is horrible though.

Hicken4613d ago

Yeah, that was pretty bad.

Mr_Luke4613d ago (Edited 4613d ago )

Again an article like this! Oh well, Ps4 for sure ;)
November is coming!!!

P.S. is it my impression or the article is obscenely written and without any news/info/something interesting?

hello124613d ago

PS4 plays games play online player hosted matches only.

XB1, better exclusives, you can bloody talk to the console and it will do what you ask it of it, amazing!

Better chat audio, HDMI out, Dedicated servers for free for all games, better software for graphics and gameplay, better controller than the dualshock, better apps.

XB1 of course wins it and it will be shown to be the winner, when the console launches.

Yo, heavy, you gotta relax, man. Take it easy. Eat some chill-pills. Take a much-needed vacation. Go skiing or sailing or kayaking. go play in the waves, or drink an adult beverage. Have a tickle fight with a pile of puppies. Go for a long stroll down a sandy beach. Touch a railing and then touch your face. Eat a snowcone. Get Randy Newman to sign your boobs. Smoke a cigar and stroke a lion. Do situps in your garage. Eat a pine cone. Smush a ladybug with your palm. Eat a bag full of roasted peanuts. Get a haircut. Build a birdhouse. Take a picture of a celebrity. Pick up a musical instrument. Take a dip in the pool. Throw on some R&B and have a private dance party. Make friends with a neighbor boy. Take prescription drugs and drink alcohol. Eat a snail. Spend 200 dollars at the rippers. Dress up as Santa and scare some kids at the mall. Drink a handful of lake-water. find some Asian people and pretend your a giant. Clone yourself and then kick your clone around and tell him to run errands for you. Make love to a Taiwanese gymnast. Slap a bumper sticker on your ass and run around town naked making beeping noises. Do the hokey-pokey. Find religion.

Allsystemgamer4613d ago

Lol someone's "research" is wayyyyyy off lol

hello124613d ago

I laugh at Sony fans all the time. They don't even research, to what their console can do and not do. I'm not even buying a PS4 and i know more than most Sony fans.

Sony fans told me Killzone has dedicated servers and i am a fool. Which is entirely false by the way. Its running a network like the X box 360 did.

Killzone Shadow Fall has dedicated servers hosted in various regions around the world. These servers do not run the logic of the game – they only act as a hub between the clients, forwarding network traffic from one player in game to all other players in game. This allows people with a slower connection or strict firewall settings to play without issues. Almost all logic relating to you (e.g. moving, shooting and taking damage) runs on your local PS4, with only a very small portion of the game logic (i.e. mission/scoring logic) running on the ‘session master’, one PS4 in the game selected for its connection quality.

This came from the Killzone developer himself. This isn't dedicated servers. So whos the idiot here?

Another rumor put out by Sony fans recently.

COD Ghosts was only running at 720p and yet Infinty award announced back in June of this year the game was running at 1080p and 60 frames on xb1.

http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...

This is the reason Sony fans will end up with an inferior console, because you don't research the facts.

ravinash4613d ago (Edited 4613d ago )

"Almost all logic relating to you (e.g. moving, shooting and taking damage) runs on your local PS4"

Thats how most on line gaming works!
What, are you expecting the the cloud will magically do half the processing for you? Or that somehow you'll just have a terminal session working on the server somewhere. (abit like how Sony's Gaikai system will do?)

Sorry to break the news to you, but most of the processing with the games on XB1 will still be on the console.
A company thats investing on multi platforms will not bother investing the extra code to get cloud procssing working for their game when they also have to get it working for the other platform..so you can forget games like COD..so that just leaves the the exclusives.

That brings us back to the arguement about how many games MS release as exclusive.

medman4613d ago

KNWS is clearly an uneducated gamer, if he is even a gamer at all. You show your low intellect for all to see and somehow seem satisfied with yourself. Typical Cod aficionado, clearly. Wake up. Or don't. But leave the rest of us with viable brain cells alone.

-Foxtrot42d 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…

HectixRose44d 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.

JEECE43d 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.

CantThinkOfAUsername43d 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.

Soy43d ago

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

DarXyde43d 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.

Ashunderfire8643d 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.

Ashunderfire8643d ago (Edited 43d 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.

pwnmaster300043d 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.

solideagle43d 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

Relientk7743d ago

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