That's awesome to hear Brother -

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Didn't console wars used to be against the TOS? Or am I imagining that? If so, I miss that. I genuinely don't care why you think the XB1 is better, just leave us in here who are thrilled with our PS4s be.

I see a distinct difference between these two threads. Guys here in the PS4 thread are justfitying have the "Best possible gaming only machine" and bashing the "kiddie" multi-media aspect to the XB1. While the guys in the XB1 thread are just drooling over the fact the XB1 is amazingly awesome at gaming AND everything else. No ones talking about the PS4 there because there's no need.

I even said yesterday how I liked the PS4, but honestly, the XB1 did the best job offering the public the best leap forward in terms of what we will be seeing now, and in the future. Some people who will remain nameless sent me PM's saying they were "offended" I didn't gush over the PS4's raw power. Honestly, that raw power, will never be an issue. You'll never notice a great difference over these two machines gaming capabilities as time goes on.

Right now, I have a good gaming PC, not the best, but my friend has an abvsolutel beast of a machine, and when I see him play BF4, and compare it to my "high" settings to his "ultra" settings, the difference literally means nothing to me.

Whoever is saying the XB1 isn't being innovative isn't really paying attention. They are the ones that brought the most advanced innovation to the table these past 2 weeks.

And just so I'm not labeled the fanboy label, I have a PS3, loved it, and love Uncharted and The Show...which is why I will be buying the PS4 as soon as one of those games come out.

Saying we will never notice the difference between the graphical capabilities of the two systems is ridiculous, and not true. I will remember you said this down the road.

I am really glad you love the XBone, I truly hope you enjoy it to the fullest extent and get as much use out of it as possible. Happy gaming!

Things like gigantic storage space, connecting to NAS (if you really want to go digital with your media), sorting, listing and downloading all the information for the media you have saved on the computer. All for much cheaper than an XBone. Yes, you lose the ability to play "console" games of this generation in a way... but if you built a HTPC for a couple hundred a few years ago and bought a PS4 you're in a better position than owning an XBone, in terms of media and flexibility - in my opinion of course.

Here's a little picture I just took of an episode I have downloaded on my PC. I'd like to see the XBone do this when I put an .avi, .mp4 or .mkv file on it (just kidding, consoles don't want to play MKV files.)

Spoiler

I know I said I was done, but this is the last point - Swear.

A HTPC was clunky and the worst experience that does not compare. I had one. It could do a lot. It integrated Cable TV much like the XB1 does. But it did not even come close to integrating gaming. You could alt-tab to switch but there would be graphical hiccups, crashes related to the PC software not being compatible, your screen resolution would need to change every time you jumped in and out of the menu system and a game, if you were trying to multi-task...

The two do not compare at all. If you've used both, you should know this right away.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Alright, I get it.

The XBone has really cool features.

I'm gonna go play some Killzone. See yall on there.

Have they released info on any Jak and Daxter games yet? I kinda miss those good ol platforming days

The difference will be so minimal and you'll never notice it unless you have your PS4 and XB1 sitting right next to each other while you play the same game....which is pretty unrealistic, so yes, it won't make a difference to people.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

I'm getting really frustrated with 2K14. I cannot get any custom roster to load in Quick Game or MyGM. Anybody else having this problem?

And to speak my mind on the watching television on a console…. it is not a big deal. You already have television and can switch inputs in three seconds. Also not everybody has an HD box. I live in a dorm, and the feature to me just seems useless. If I want to watch TV, I watch TV. If I want to play video games, I turn on my console. I just don't see the innovation anywhere when you already had a cable box. That's just my two cents on the subject.

Nope, you're wrong.

It already has made a difference to people. Check the resolution differences game sites have already noted.

It might not make a difference to you, but I know in BF4 on PC, I notice a huge difference between High and Ultra, and you said you don't, so, maybe everyone is looking for different things.

Depends on how long ago you used it. The gaming point i cede, which I thought I expressed but perhaps not (hence why I said I'd rather have a dedicated HTPC and PS4.) XBMC has come a long way since it's inception, though, and I love it now.

Also, on the "you being the controller" / virtualization thing.

If I were a betting man, I'd put my money down on the Oculus Rift type technology having a larger impact on gaming than the motion/voice controls - but even as amazing as that is it has it's downsides (silly facemask/helmet/goggles/whatever you want to call it) to wear.

I just have to say - I always have my 2 year old on lap while using the PC, and he points and giggles every time he sees your Avatar - so thank you for that.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Wait. I thought I was in a thread to talk about Playstation 4 and not Xbox One.

I must be lost....

Seriously guys like 23 said before let's get this back on topic. If you want to talk Xbox and Innovations go to the Xbox thread please.

Huge is pretty subjective. Cause High to Ultra is not huge.

That said, I don't buy games based on their graphical prettiness. Give me a game with good graphics and great gameplay and I'm happy. Which is what both consoles will deliver.
