Is your point that at this point, neither system is worth the investment with both of their weak launch line ups?
Sometimes, people read what they want to read im afraid.
at this point for me question if im getting a system at launch is not really games just the rumors coming out including ps4 over heating and features not being on these things at launch and x1 game quality issues. I will admit i have been trying to win ps4 from taco bell but if some strange reason best buy opens pre order on ps4 which i doudt happens i would jump on it over x1 at this point.
The reason I wrote the comment I did is because Preedatore was trying to justify the $500 Xbox One purchase based on the 3 games not found on the PS4. I was just offering an objection to his comment not trying to validate a reason to buy a PS4.
You just proved my point, the Vita has been a flop yet Sony is still supporting it, let's look at Nintendo's flop, the Virtual Boy, it was discontinued within a year of release. And where are you getting that Microsoft will all of a sudden become the cheaper option down the road, where are you pulling this prediction from? It makes zero sense unless you are talking about them removing Kinect down the road, in which case that makes the $500 Xbox One investment that much worse.
I never once mentioned I don't like Kinect, or argued for or against it's value, so I'm unsure why you have posed this question to me.
You should study up on the specs before making statements like that. GDDR5 is one of many specs the PS4 outclasses the Xbox One on. And there is a very real possibility the ESRAM in the Xbox One is limiting the resolution and unless programmers cheat and use forward rendering, baked lighting, etc. they will not be able to achieve 1080p. This of course is speculation, but judging by the information leaking out, it's starting to be confirmed.
Yeah but dencent kinect game sales do like nike workout game had decent sale numbers. With that said is it worth paying 500 bucks for kinect 2.0 only NO. But for all the features x1 offers and I will say a overall better 1st party games out of the gate yes 500 bucks is great value for all you get. In my mind both systems are over priced sweet spot would be 350 in this economy.
Esram is not bad at all if used right in x1 every game can be 1080 p. if games are not in 1080 p it's just revs being lazy plain and simple. I'm sorry but no way ghost should only be 720 p on x1 iw is just lazy plain and simple.
It's called upscaling.
ING ARGUING IN THIS THREAD. TAKE IT TO PM. NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR STUPID ARGUMENT.
I'm pretty excited myself. The only thing I wish I would've done was upgrade the TV in my office where I'll be playing. Maybe, doing something with the sound as well. However with a newborn on the way, everything else has taken a backseat!
Thanks, I will
I've tried to stay out of this, but it is just getting ridiculous. How manny of you guys are playing on TVs over 42"? Guess what, if your TV is under 42" (or monitor) you can't see the difference. Same with all this 60FPS bull shit. Most people can't even see the difference. EDIT: Viewing distance also matters.
One of the best posts I've read in this or any other thread of late. People don't seem to remember prior launches at all. The "console war" discussion is beyond lame, not to mention tired. It's the same old crap that's been posted here and elsewhere since June. Why do people waste their time continually rehashing the same arguments...I don't get it. If one side "wins" the console war over the other, what's in it for you? You going to win the lottery as a result of it? Jesus, just enjoy the games and buy the system you want. It's like debating politics with strangers over the net. Why waste your time and quality of life rehashing the same old endless arguments.
I just edited my post to reflect that because I should've put that in to begin with, thanks for pointing it out.
The excuses you Xbots will make to justify your Xbox One purchase are beyond belief. In what other product line would people make excuses and justifications for purchasing the inferior product at the higher price point? It makes little to no sense.. and people call Apple customers "sheep?" This is a whole other level.
Sorry bud, I don't pledge allegiance to any corporation. I buy what I want based on my needs. My current stable of tech - A Macbook Pro, Nokia Lumia 928, Xbox 360 and 3DS XL. Of course, that is 2 Microsoft products so damn, I must suck on that Microsoft tit all day long.
Not acting like Sony is the king of anything, they have the better system, accept it. But even if the hardware was identical, the PS4 is still $100 cheaper, then you factor in that it's substantially stronger hardware and it's a no brainer. Sure in launch titles resolution suffers and maybe your TV size and viewing distance BS is a fine excuse, but down the line when games get more complex and it isn't just resolution that is compromised what will be your excuse then? You say you don't have allegiance to Microsoft yet with all the negative surrounding the system you are blindly buying into their inferior product at a higher price, if not allegiance then what is it?
The only reason I'm getting an X1 at launch is 'new toy syndrome' and familiarity with the Xbox platform. I'm serious - go read this article about the 'power' of a system - http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-the-secret-developers-what-hardware-balance-actually-means-for-game-creators
Orly, where, prove it? Both systems are about the same performance wise. And because both systems have similar guts if one suffers slightly the devs will just likely dial things back a little so both versions look, play and perform the same. MS recently bumped their specs to improve things on their end but the gap between both machines were pretty close anyways.
it's my money why would you care what i do with it and why should i justify why im buying x1 you playstation fan boy. im buying x1 because i do enjoy the 1st party titles at launch for x1 then the ones for ps4. I think xbox live with dedicated servers will be a better service still then psn. 2) i have tons of friends on live unlike psn. 3. i like the added featurs of x1 including kinect and the tv stuff. 4 i can't pre order a ps4 even if i wanted one.
You do realize the PS4 has voice commands as well?
The spec bump did little to narrow the margin between the Xbox One and the PS4. And we are already seeing multiplats better on the PS4, so your multiplats will be level statement is incorrect.
