With some practice neither do I, anymore. Although that scroll menu can be... frustrating with 50 players on one server and 12 of them trying to get into a blackhawk.

I have not got either yet, though i do plan on getting the PS4 at some point in the coming months when i get some more money in. Xbox One does not appeal to me.

Crysis came out on the PC in 2007. Yet it's still the best looking game out there by a huge margin. Add mods and you end up with this:

Which of these 2 main Next Gen consoles do you consider better, and why do you think that?

I personally prefer the PS4 as it allows for free internet browsing, has a touch pad controller, and has stunning graphics.


PS4 all the way

Arguably the PS4. I'm not likely to be able to buy one anytime soon anyway. Or I could just stick with what I have. I've lost interest in console gaming recently

In supporting the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, one is actively replicating the capitalist system in their living room, through their support of a closed system where the software and hardware is controlled by a board of corporate elites.

Thus, if one is opposed to capitalism, then they should take care not to purchase a console.

Worse frame rates,

OMG that is sooooo important!
:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Better graphics, more processing power, more flexibility and of course mods.

But personally I bought a ps4. It's cheaper, more powerful and I don't have to worry about the NSA.
Plus play station didn't make me angry with their DRM and online policies like Microsoft did.

Between the two, I have to say PS4. Despite the online pay, I still love the raw power that is majestically divided up to whats important.
I do like the Xbox however it does not seem to allure me like its competition.

As far as PC is concerned I love computers, I want a new custom made computer, Downside is everything is outdated within months or if your lucky years even if you throw 3 Grand at it. I do need two desktops (and a new laptop) in the future for game development and testing (IE: I favor Apple for development of software but simple PCs for gaming, Go figure?)
Just a average person! Is that too straight forward?

Whoa whoa whoa...now SONY is making you pay for online?
BASTARDS!!!!!

I wasn't aware that they did this (I don't have a next gen console and really didn't care about their details since I won't be buying one for a while...or maybe not at all at this point).

Well, I was going to say PS4 since I can't stand Microsoft and generally just like Sony products better, but shit, I'm probably going to switch to PC gaming now...

Why after all the iterations this has gone through, is this still a discussion?

Buy and play what you want, and what works for you. Who cares what any particular fanboy group says. YMMV, all that. Huzzah. I play what I play and like what I like, and I don't feel a particular need to be validated in that by a bunch of online posts to support those choices. I still can't gather why some do.

well, there's no point why we can't come together and discuss the positives and deficits of both consoles and why we chose what we did -- many of us are gamers, and own multiple consoles and a PC anyway. I personally prefer PC but i'll still choose PS4 over Xbox one any day.
