PS4 or Xbox 1?
« on: November 03, 2013, 10:30:06 AM »

So these new systems are just around the corner. There has been some reviews so far comparing the PS4 to upgraded PC's and the graphics and play are very close now. I haven't seen a review for the Xbox 1 yet.

I have played both systems at Fan Expo and they both looked very slick.

So what's everyone take on the new systems?

I already fully paid for my PS4 so I'll have it set up on release date.

Ah, the steam box. I have high expectation for that and I'll most likely jump on board with one of those as well.

I love Steam. Great company and fantastic deals.

When I do get one, a couple of years down the road. I just bought a new 360 not too long ago after my old one died. It will probably an XBox 1, I've always had a better experience with X-Box.

Sticking with PS3.
I still own a half dozen games (or more) I haven't even tried.
Plus the PS3 games will  see a nice price drop.

I'd wait a year before buying either one. Let them get the kinks out of the way.

But if you twisted my arm I'd get a PS4. There are more JRPGs exclusive to the system and anything else I want will show up on both.

my PS3 broke about a year ago. I'm trying to see if it would be cheaper to buy a new one then fix the old. Sadly my best video gaming days are far behind me. :'(.
oh yeah PS4, just cause I've always bought playstation.

Plus for the first year all new PS4 games will be ported to run on PS3 so there is really no rush.  Like the graphics on PS4 are going to be leaps and bounds over PS3, not likely... Gone are the days when you can clearly see a difference when you upgraded to the next system.

What is funny is I enjoy playing my Original NES games more then playing all these new games...
