Ps4 or X Box 720

[flappo]

which one will be the gratest console ?

[flappo]

microshit's track record is obv. a disadvantage as everything they make is utter crap

[fryingdutchman]

PS4 all the way.

[fryingdutchman]

Although I wish they'd show the fucking console already!!!

They've only shown the fucking controller...I'm sick of seeing it.

But their press conference reveal awhile back was amazing, and I think PS4 is going to be a great machine. From all reports it's built much more like a high-end gaming PC, and developers are going to love it. PS3 was a ballbuster because it was all proprietary Sony hardware and developing for it was a real bastard.

I think it's way past time that we had a video game section in the Roth Army forums.

I would like to be considered for mod duties....

What do you say, el Flappo?

Speculation is that it will start in the $400's...

And I think they're only making one model. Not a bunch of different sized hard drives like they did with PS3.

I went Xbox 360 last time mainly to let the little un shoot up his mates.
When i was reading articles recently the difference between the two next consoles is so weighed towards the ps4 being the one for games am gonna have to go with Sony .

There's a lot of conflicting information surrounding Xbox 720.

But in my opinion Playstation has always been the better console. Xbox 360 got a boost because Sony killed themselves with a $600 pricetag out of the gate with PS3, and people just weren't willing to spend that kind of coin.

But the sales figures are virtually identical now between PS3 and Xbox 360.

Xbox also scored because they had a lot of exclusives like "Halo" and others. But I think that "exclusives" are not going to play a big role in the next generation.

Besides, the Playstation Network remains FREE, while you have to shell out $$$ for Xbox Live.

I'd go with Sony over Microsoft any day, but if they get into all the DRM schemes to keep people from buying used games I will not purchase one.

I barely play the PS3 I have now. I use it so infrequently that when I try to go to watch Amazon Prime videos on it, it wants to update every time.

[fryingdutchman]

Who voted that they were too busy wanking?

You should be able to cast multiple votes. Many of us wank while banging hookers in Grand Theft Auto....

[fryingdutchman]

I think we'll really get to see some serious shit at the E3 show in June.

That will really show what's what between the two machines.

The used games issue is a huge bone of contention for a lot of people...as is backwards compatibility.

It looks like cloud gaming will be a big issue in the next generation. Sony dropped a ton of cash to acquire cloud gaming service Gaikai. It will be interesting to see how they use it...

[twonabomber]

That's another thing I'm not interested in: the cloud. Storage is cheap, I can afford to have my stuff where I need it.

Watching the clusterfuck that has been the new Sim City release doesn't make me want to use anything with DLC or an "always on" Internet connection.

I think the industry is heading for another crash.
