XBox One or Playstation 4

Which one are y'all getting? The XBox One or PS4 or both?

Probably the Xbox. I hardly play games anymore, but they are so much more versatile than ordinary Bluray players.

Never been a fan of Playstation. Xbox is the choice for me.

PS4 for sure. XBox One has too many limitations. If I'm paying $499.99 I should be able to play used games, and if I'm in an area where I may not have access to internet service, I should still be able to use it for gaming.

They did away with that always on and the inability to play used games thing.

Or so I thought. If that's the case, PS4 for me. I'm not going to contribute to the software as service business model.

Agreed. While the XBox One (lovingly referred to as the Xboner and now the XBox 180)'s reversal of using traded games and the once every 24 hours check in to their online service, that was a clear change due to low pre-order numbers and poor reception from the gaming public.

The games coming out for next generation I can get all on PS4, or my 360. That being said, I'm waiting a bit after the launch to get a new system. Usually after a while there is a price break or a bundle.

That being said, I'm hyped for Battlefield 4.

That building collapse.

Kev is right. They did away with that because of the reaction of some of their devoted customers. They would have lost a lot of customers and money on that bad decision.

I'm all about the Xbox and have been since the original. I'll only get the PS4 for GT6, when and if it becomes available for it. I was going to preorder the Xbox One, but decided not to. I made the mistake of preordering the 360 when it was first announced, and as a result, ended up getting the "Red Ring of Death".

Now, I'm going to wait about a year to see what kind of problems the new system has, if any at all. According to Microsoft, that was something they're paying close attention to with the new system. I'm still going to wait, though.

I think the Xbox One scaled back some of the changes they were making, but this gif slayed me.
