You guys are so blinkered! I told you the other day if one console becomes so popular that they cannot guarantee demand then people will just move to the next one and order that instead, plus most of the launch orders are most likely from entrepreneurs wanting to cash in on the lack of stock.
Said it before and will say it again, this is in MS favor, all they have to do is have more units available than Sony and those who cannot get a PS4 will go straight for the Xbox-one, I will be pre-ordering a PS4 and Xbox-one within the next day or so, hopefully the UK will have more stock? I for one will not be one of the idiots who pay over £1000 to get a PS4 at launch because there are no units other than e-bay and amazon.
Crazy thing is that this will result in more Xbox-one sales, if they can't get a PS4 and it's holiday time no doubt they will want to walk away with something.
Don't call me an idiot child! I was referring to the game play, Xbox-live is better, less cheats and more stable, I have 2 PS3's so I am qualified to a opinion. Thanks.
I will be getting Xbox-one because I think Xbox-live will be superior to PSN.
@Gimmemorebubblez Interesting! cross game chat also, I will likely get both :)
Edit: Shame Sony does not work as hard on the PSN network!, I respect them for trying out new hardware ideas but the PSN really let the PS3 down, and now Xbox-one will be using cloud computing something I expect Sony will do also but MS are expanding on it better just like Xbox-live over PSN, in my opinion Sony=better hardware MS=better network.
Why you say more powerful? can you prove that comment?
Yes mate, it's been confirmed.
I am not on Sony or MS side but to say that Next Gen already belongs to Sony is way premature, you do not seriously think MS does not have something up their sleeves do you? everything can change between now and November, these are launch prices, come Christmas the offers will start, and I also doubt people will jump from Xbox-live to PSN until they see it betters it!
Someone said this blows everything on the Xbox-one away! sorry but Ryse although different easily beats this on looks.
Can someone point me in the direction of Sony's best looking PS4 game so far, I have not seen anything that betters Xbox one so far.
And can someone point me in the direction of the best looking game please, Xbox one had some really great looking games, I am just checking the PS4 stuff but have not seen anything on the level of the Xbox one stuff, it's not going to be easy choosing this time around but for me Sony has to match live, I have a PS3 and I think it's great but online was never on the same level has Xbox-live.
Does it come with cross game chat?
Well I have had both consoles for some time now and I think they are both great, but in all fairness I have never noticed a massive difference in PS3 and Xbox 360 graphics, I have noticed the frame rates tend to be better on 360, UC3 looked amazing but I have not been impressed with the Killzone games, boring and dull looking, they look better on youtube videos than they do when playing them, much prefer the Halo look.
This is the only generation where I have even considered buying redesigns, I have the old Xbox-360 jasper model I think? quieter than the first lot, and my kids have PS3 slims, and they are impressive in their own right, graphically I don't rate one above the other. I don't like the idea of a top loader, I had the dreamcast and my friends baby opened the lid and was sick in it, put me off a bit.
I will only buy prepaid subscriptions form MS from now on, getting a bit fed up of using my bank account for deals, then clearly stating that I do not want to continue when asked, then still getting charged, the e-mail account I used to have closed some time ago and MS and MSN will not offer me a solution to change my password which I forgot so I have little control, my only option is to create a new account and loose all the old DLC I have, one of my kids has a PS3 which I use all the time, ...
@kikizoo Only on N4G could someone tell me I imagine something that really happens.
I have Xbox-live and PSN now, and to be fair Xbox-live is the better service if you like online play, PSN has Playstation HOME which has come a long way but other than that Xbox-live is better, it's not just the chat features, PSN just seems easier to hack games, there is something wrong when I can get kicked from a MW2 lobby by a hacker or put up with the various cheats they use.
I would have both but not jump ship, say what you like but Xbox-live is far more evolved than PSN, PSN should be a main focus for Sony, Home is a great idea it's not that which is the problem, it's gaming comms side and how open PSN is to cheaters compared to Xbox-live.
I was right though wasn't i, go check amazon.
