    Max running temperature while gaming/multi-tasking
    XBOne: 49 Celsius (120 Fahrenheit)
    PS4: 45 Celsius (113 Fahrenheit)

    XBOne is cooler than PS4 while idling.

    This is what swayed my decision in the end.



    This is what did it for me:

    Just from watching the first 2 videos alone I'm better off just waiting on buying either console.

    Yep, I've gotten that same impression from every review I've seen.

    I thought this was interesting. The ? recognition and voice controls were heavily marketed for the XB1 and barely mentioned for the PS4. Given that the Kinect2 is a much more advanced piece of tech over the PS4 cam and the fact that M$ put a lot more into those options than Sony, I would have thought that the XB1 would ? the PS4 in those functionalities. Surprisingly, they are pretty similar in performance.

    They are pretty much the same when it comes to ? recognition. The PS4 arguably performed a little better in t this little exercise given that it only failed one test where as the XB1 failed one and struggled on another. It should be noted that this test is really simplistic and the XB1 supposedly gets better at things over time so who knows.

    Just get the console/service you prefer.


    Xbox Live is an almost perfect online service so I got an Xbox.

    Right I could care less about which console/camera performs better between the two

    Cosign. Kinect is dope though. Skype calls are epic. The way the camera follows and zooms in an out automatically. Good ? .

    Ehhhh, I've been one of the people saying from the start that only the gaming matters, but others here have been making a big deal out of every little feature that the consoles do. So I just posted it. I think ? recognition is unecessary, but I did think the test itself was interesting.

    So far I like the Xbox One better *shrugs*

    Aye but how is the online gaming component for PS4 ? And I dont mean browsing I mean with actual gameplay IN the game. Please tell me they fixed that ? .....

    Can't tell you how online is w/o experiencing XB1 first to compare it to but it doesn't drop connection like PS3 did, but it still has lag at times.

    I think everyone should like the XB1 more at this point. They both have weak lineups, but the PS4 is supposed to be focused on gaming, so its weak lineup hurts it more. That said, the PS4 has over 100 games in development for it now, so that situation should change soon. I don't know how many are in development for XB1, but I'd guess it's less since they don't have the Indy support that was built up for the PS4.

    Cause ? who don't have either system can know people with both and likely have played enough of both to have valid opinions. Don't get mad because not everyone felt the need to run out and buy some ? that was pretty much guaranteed to not yet be worth the money. Until they get some games worth playing and get past all the bugs and deficiencies PS3 >> PS4 and XB1. I could have gotten both systems if I wanted, but what's the point when there are more PS3 games I want coming out in the near future than PS4 games.

    Gameswise ...... right now the Wii U is a better purchase than XB1/PS4

    Had the Mario/Luigi bundle in my cart today with Transformers Prime ........ just to confirm then changed my mind.

    Sleeping on it

    Well that shouldn't really surprise anyone. It's been out longer and has stronger first party support. But if strength of catalog right now is all that mattered, you'd still be better of sticking with current (or past) gen consoles since they have better catalogs than all three new systems.

    They won't be for everybody, no game really is, but they are all quality releases with big fan bases.

    Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare
    Killer Instinct
    Dead Rising 3
    Forza 5
    Ryse: Son of Rome
    Lego Marvel
    Need For Speed
    NBA 2K14
    Fifa 14
    Call of Duty
    Battlefield
    Assassins Creed 4
    Madden

    Seems like plenty for 2 months...

    I'm loving my system. I'm enjoying the games and all the multimedia and voice command aspects. I dunno, I guess I feel like if you want to enjoy the new consoles, you will. Once you actually have one, and are playing the games and using the system, all the other BS just doesn't matter.
