Well purely because i currently game on my ps3 and occasionally my 2013 iMac and obviously either new console would be an upgrade to both!!
I agree with you jaxx ps3 online has never been a patch on xbox live but hopefully that will change this time around! I know the ps4 is better on the spec sheet than the xbone but so was the ps3 compared to the 360 but that counted for nothing, this generation seem to be singing from the same hymn sheet so i don't think the devs will struggle with the ps4 like they did the ps3 which is obviously a good thing.

I dobnt own either but my 5 pence worth is to buy the one that has the games that interst you the most as its the games that provide the enjoyment, if I brought either a ps4 or xbox one now they would just be collecting dust.

This is the only thing that has me changing my mind lol Killzone has never done it for me but i loved the forza series. Something keeps niggling away at me though telling me that its sony's turn even though i personally prefer the xbox launch lineup over the ps4's.
Aaaaaarrrrggghhhh what am i to do!! (good job i can't get one yet lmao).

I can agree and agree to disagree on most of your post Jaxx, but not on the PS4 dashboard. It's damn near instant on mine and the load times are superb in comparison to last gen. I've been reading that the Xbox one suffers from long loading times. Have you found that?

Easy answer splash out and Buy Both

Never had a xbox but always feel as though I missed out not being able to play forza series. I wouldn't buy the bone because of the spy [censored] with the cameras and nothing on the PS4 interests me at the mo. So I'm going to wait a while, plus games will be cheaper when I'm ready

I thought you could turn all the spy stuff off now on the Xbox one? I reckon PS4 would be the same if you left the camera on all the time.

Anyway, I doubt Jaxx has been bombarded with spam emails selling underpants, but there's no harm in asking? Well not because of his Kinect anyway.

Yea that's exactly it guys, pick the console that has the best games for you. Don't get lost in all the arguments of "well the Xbox is just a media console" as it's all absolute poppycock. The difference in graphics is negligible so don't let that sway your decision. They both look great!

You don't have to have the Kinect plugged in if you don't want to. It is really good though, they have made the games much more interactive like I think I said on one post the other day in Dead Rising you can whistle or shout at the zombies to attract them to you etc. Still feels a bit odd shouting at the tele, but hey it's something a little different. If you want to unplug the Kinect you just pull the wire out the back, it's not hardwired in or anything it's pretty cool too that you can have your Xbox "always on" in a kind of standy mode so when you walk in the room it just comes on instantly and is like "HEY JAXX!" as the Kinect camera is SO much better it recognizes you every time.

I was sold on a PS4 for ages, then right at the last minute I thought "why am I swaying towards the PS4? Mainly because of reading stuff online with people hating on the Xbox". So then I decided I would stick to what I know and I am happy I did

I should add I will still get a PS4 I think, just not yet. Killzone looks good but not good enough to warrant the whole console. Infamous, meh, the first one was alright I played it on my housemates PS3 but not that much to write home about and I don't really know anyone that thought it was that amazing.

On the Xbox we have Quantum Break and Titanfall coming in the Spring which both look pretty sweet. Quantum Break looks like a game version of the TV show Fringe, and I absolutely love Fringe so I am quite excited about it. Plus it is by Remedy who made Alan Wake which is one of my favourite games!

Like I say though, different horses for courses.

That's my biggest dislike about the xbone. I don't want any of that facial recognition [censored] going on in my house, especially not with something that's connected to the internet
