Ps4 vs xbox one

[sparked1]

I talked to a guy that worked at gamestop yesterday and said the online thing wasn't a big deal that if you didn't get online everyday when you did get back online it would catch up like when your xbox does the random updates from time to time. But that would still suck having to just wait everytime you get online.

That's how the PS3 works. Mine seems to update way too much and it takes way too long. Can't get online until you update. Wouldn't be bad if it didn't take so damned long each time. It's really annoying.

With the current reversal on Microsoft's position regarding online only and used games, I'll probably stick with their platform. The PS4 has better hardware (if you care about specs) but I still like the direction Microsoft is going. I tend to use my 360 as a cable box these days anyway, so it works for me. I've owned the PS3 and it was nice but their online gaming community was a bit lacking. In the end I'll probably own both but the $100 dollar difference isn't enough for me to change my mind just yet.

Had Microsoft kept their previous plans in place I wouldn't have supported them just out of principle.

I'm no longer a hardcore gamer so my viewpoints don't mean much. As far as titles, I still feel Xbox has the edge (for my preferences) with games like Gears of War and Halo. On the flip side, I've always enjoyed the God of War series.

Yeah, I got that email...reversing their decision on always on and used games. Still, they're coming in at $500 higher than PS4. I'll probably stick with XBox, but I'll wait till the first price cut or I can get a used one...still plenty of games I have yet to finish on the 360.
