OS Roundtable: PlayStation 4 or Xbox One?

PS4.....The more I hear the words "Exclusive License/Rights" from companies like Microsoft and EA, the more I am pushed away....

Yeah I agree. Exclusive deals are brutal. Always a sign of bad things coming.

I don't want to miss the next Uncharted, Little Big Planet, and many other PS4 exclusives. I also really love the Vita, which will link with the PS4.

TV and an all in one stop media box means that Microsoft is banking on folks with limited budgets to buy their system. Why buy all the other media devices,w hen one box can do it all. The outcome will be folks fighting for game or tv time at once.
That box will wind up in the family room or living roorm. The scenario will be little sister wants to watch my little pony while littel brother wants to play Call Of Duty....

question I have is does thiis box have the capability to connect to multiple output devices via a router or switch. Is it a multi port device, so that little sister, Mom or Dad can watch/stream TV on one televison via the XBOX while someone else games?

Xbox One. I'll get the PS4 soon after, but it will only be used for exclusives, just like my PS3.

X-Box One is a total disappointment. I'm sure it will play games wonderfully, but the PS4 looks more powerful, sounds as if it's gonna get better support than the PS3 did, and, as everybody else here mentioned, I buy my consoles for gaming; I have a smart TV, a PS3, my Satellite receiver, an Xbox 360, a PC, a smartphone, a tablet, and a smart Blu-Ray player which all do the job of giving me viewing content admirably. Microsoft bragging about that is like some back country cable provider bragging about HD. We already got that, brah. Next?

There were two exclusives (Maybe Three) that were shown at the PS4 event. The other games that Sony showed are coming to Xbox One too, so it's really all about preference. I honestly want both systems. I done this with every console war so I see no reason to stop. E3 will prove to be a big deal for both companies. Sony is going to come with there Exclusives, but if Microsoft shows off 15 Exclusives, and at least 5 of them are top notch w/ 2 of them being new IP's, then that changes the focus. I want new games. I'm tired of playing the same franchises. If Sony and Microsoft can do this then it's a win-win for gamers.

The fact anyone would choose the One over the PS4 at this point baffles me.

How much are they paying you to say that?

E3 will be what wins me this year, though the only choice is "PS4" or "No Next-Gen"

I'm already dead set against the One. I'm poor, I don't have the income to deal with the used game bullcrap the One is trying to enforce. Most of my games are used. If I have to choose between paying 60 for a new title, or paying 60 for 4 older titles that I can lend out to friends for free... I choose the latter.

If I buy a console (which face it... I will. I'm 25 and have disposable income) it will be the PS4 and even then it's just for the games that won't come out on PC.

This gen also marks the first time since NES that I will not buy a console (the XBone.)

Everything MS is doing and focusing on this gen is a joke to me and screams to not touch it with a 10 foot pole, sadly.

PS4 for me.

[BlackRome]

As long as PS4 continues to use that design for their stick from 1994. No thanks.

100% PS4. I was very underwhelmed by the XboxOne. It's like they don't know their consumer. You can't be everything to everyone. The only time I'm going to be interested in the All-in-One device is when Apple comes out with a gaming system. Until then, I'm buying a device that plays games spectacularly, period!

[BOSKY!]

I already own an amazing gaming system and it's extremely easy for me to go from gaming, to TV, to movies, to fantasy sports already with the products I own. PS4 is what I will buy, it's the better system in my eyes.

[MR OKTOBA]

As of now Im leaning toward a PS4 as a release day purchase. It could change and I know ill purchase both consoles, but PS4 just sold the gaming system aspect where xbox pushed the whole all in one entertainment thing. Unless E3 shows different I just think xbox shoulda showcased the game system first.
