Xbox one vs. ps4

[apie2004]

People should worry less about the price as the difference is the cost of a kinect. Not worry about features and buy on exclusives

I saw the limited version of the one they wanted another £200 I think

Limited version? They have only announced one SKU. Are you referring to the Day One Edition?

[clipperjay]

Don't know mate it might have been a con for all I know I just select the highest price on all the search engines and some are very expensive they all look the same to me and TBF don't know whats limited maybe it was a larger internal drive?

It's an £80 difference.  When you think about it £80 isn't much when you're making an investment in something you will probably be using for 5+ years.

The free games are only downloads for the 360 and won't be able to be transferred over to the One.

The difference in graphics is all speculation as various developers are saying different things at the moment. Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear Solid) has come out and said the difference in minimal at best. And it goes back to how developers end up using the hardware. Look at the PS3 vs. 360. PS3 was undoubtedly the superior console on paper, but in reality it never amounted to much. 360 games still looked fantastic for their time. The benefit the One has this time round is allowing developers to offload certain tasks to the Cloud rather than making the CPU calculate them, thus making breathing room for the CPU/GPU to focus on the more intense tasks (making the games look better).

At the end of the day, until we have the consoles in our hands we can't really say much.

Spot on.

Crazy, that people think there will be a signifcant difference in graphics between the 2 

IICR...The 360 has better results on the GPU compared to the PS3. I'm sure testing was done via the ghostbusters game. If you are into gaming soley...I believe the GPU is more important compared to other hardware in the machine.

Will preorder my xbox to get the one day edition

Probably some rubbish.  There is only one console being launched. No differences in HDD etc. The price is confirmed as £429.00 so if you see any with a higher price than that then tell them to jog on.

I've got mine pre-ordered too. I'm going to be going to the midnight launch of my local game shop and I will also be taking some time off of work once we know the exact date it is to be launched. I'm a little excited....

So....why was Microsoft using PC's running Windows 7 with Nvidia graphics cards for their Xbox one demos at E3 and not the xbox one, which has AMD graphics cards btw?

 

[clipperjay]

Hey Jon because it was easier to use the Microsoft presentation software? 
Think you should write a strong letter asking what hardware they used in those PC's only if you have the time though?

[Shady Pioneer]

MS have confirmed no DRM at all, able to trade games in without restrictions!

Dammit. Just about to post that. Looks like Ms have done a 180 on their plans. Wonder why.
Maybe they should call it the xbox 180? 
I wonder how many sales they've lost because of their original stance.
