    Ghost Recon wildlands and all their dlc in 2 years has me going back to it and back to it on the X which looks superior in every way on the x

    Witcher 3 has a 60fps mode and the 4k mode is superior with a locked 30fps and an hdr that actually works correct on the x

    Gears of War 4 has one of the great looking games at native 4k with a rock solid 30fps and 4k textures. That game to me is the best looking game this gen. Horizon is a boring game to me but it does look amazing but the actually quality of gears is better as it has far more particles and 4k textures. and did I mention a 60fps mode?

    Assassins creed origins looks amazing on the X and is a contender for looker of the generation

    God of War is amazing to me but easy and beat it and no dlc or reason to play it again. Horizon to me was boring as heck...

    COD, BF1 now in 4k and Ghost Recon, Wolfenstein, Assaisins creed origins, all games that are superior on the x...even doom

    exclusives are nice when they come out but I have not touched uncharted 4, or any sony exclusive after a month....

    This is why multi plats rule because they make it to where there is always something to look forward to.
    Multi-platform games are great but three of my top four games are PS4 exclusives. Quality wise, exclusives are usually better but more so, should be better because the game only needs to be developed for one platform. God of War gave me 80+ hours of excellent gameplay, story, characters, etc. in a semi-open world that looks breathtaking to explore. AC Origins gave me over 100 hours but the story and characters flopped at the end because it was rushed and had no build up. Yeah, ACO looks superb but as an overall game, it's not on the same level of Horizon or God of War because it's lacking in certain areas.

    The only game I put ahead of those three PS4 exclusives is The Witcher 3 because in nearly every aspect, no other game is going to match it let alone surpass it regardless of the publisher. It's simply not going to happen. But do I need or want to replay it just because CDPR added a 4K/HDR patch? Hell no.

    Obviously, online focused games are different but since im not an online guy, they don't apply to me but for those that do, it's great they keep supporting those games. But when it comes to 4K/HDR, once PS4 Pro launched, every game that was released for PS4 on November 15th, 2016 or afterwards should have had that implemented day one. Same for X (Nov. 7th, 2017). Should not be months or years later. That's just unacceptable in my eyes.

    In this regard, Sony is the only publisher that hasn't disappointed me yet.

I have confidence in these studios. After the crap fest that was SOD 2, I have zero faith or confidence in Undead Labs. Spencer better increase that studio in personnel, money, tech, etc. because if SOD 3 is the same as SOD 2, then I'll be even more disappointed than I was three months ago. Compulsion Games truly makes no sense to me but im thinking that maybe Spencer saw what they'll be working on after We Happy Few. Other than that, im still trying to figure out what Spencer sees in that studio because im sorry but I just don't see it.

      Of course, all their next games are next gen so im not expecting to see anything until E3 2020 at the earliest but at the same time, it's what I want them all to do. Concentrate and focus on next gen titles.

Trying to buy something on Xbox One digitally, holy crap. It took me literally an hour to buy RAGE when it was on sale for $5 two months or so ago. The UI simply wouldn't work or do what I wanted it to do. If it wasn't for RAGE 2 and being hyped for it and wanting to play the original RAGE (which I did, very enjoyable by the way but horrible ending), I would have said screw it and moved on. The PS4 looking the same as day one is what I love about it. I don't want Sony changing it. Everything is just so easy and simple. I hope Sony keeps the same exact setup for PS5. I'll be so happy.

            You mean use the scroll bumper to get to store and click search and enter the first 3 letters of the game was difficult?

              Seriously. It couldn’t be easier to find a product you want on either console.

                It wasn't that. Actually, typing in the game which was RAGE is what I wish PS4 Store had instead of scrolling through letters. For RAGE, the problem was "confirming" my purchase. That little box on the bottom right was off screen and I couldn't click it to confirm my purchase. It simply wouldn't line up with the cursor. Tried to even change the screen size on my TV and that didn't work. A few aspects made it worse. It literally took me an hour of going through all the menus, getting to the game and trying to buy the damn thing. I don't know why the "confirm" box was off screen. Nothing worked. Tried scrolling with both analogs and nope. Nothing. That freaking confirm box just wouldn't go on screen. In general, I just see the overall UI as horrible but that's just me. I loved the Xbox 360 UI and wish they would have kept it the same on Xbox One but to each their own.

                  That would have been a horrible trade for you, the S is not even close to the machine the Pro is. If you want to come to Microsoft gaming then you need to come to the X or don't come at all. If you don't and are used to gaming on a Pro you are going to be gravely disappointed.

                    Honestly, I don’t see any difference between the Pro and the OG PS4 I had before it. When I previously had an S I had no issue with my experience. Be mindful, I’m not trying to dispute anything you’ve stated. I’m just saying that for me, it likely wouldn’t mean much. The main reason I’m holding out is because I’d rather have the latest Xbox and that’s it.

                      Well the S is the weakest of all so it's probably good you didn't do the trade because I really think you'd have noticed it going from the Pro to the S.

                      The X is the way to go trust me, you will be happy with it as I am back to being more into Microsofts camp again after being with Sony until the X came out.

                        I see some for sale for around 350. Definitely not looking to buy new LOL I should be able to get most of that via a Pro sale.
