    I always say the ONE is a media player with gaming functions and, the 4 is a gaming console with media functions.
    yeah it's like I told Curt now. if you want an media center, buy a media or bluray player. consoles are for gaming and the PS4 does that amazingly well cause they aren't trying to be a jack-of-all-trades

    The XBox One UI is changing in the next couple of months. Which adds another plus. It will be running the Windows 10 base that will add DirectX 12 and universal apps.

    Also how on earth can you call the XBox One a media player? It's first and foremost a game console. Your comment is a typical fanboy comment.

    A PC is a jack of all trades. Does that make it worse than a PS4 for gaming?

    A Raspberry Pi 2 B+ would be better option as media player from testing my fathers I was able to get media with a 50Mb/s bitrate to play reasonably well at 29.95 fps.

    I am a fan boy, for giving an opinion?

    Yes because the XBox One is a games console first and foremost. It's just a bonus that it's a good media player too.

    [MENTION=2226]InSanity[/MENTION] - When I had both consoles there were times that one or the other sat dormant for a week or three.

    In my honest opinion, get whichever you see fit in terms of the console exclusives you would prefer to play/get. Make your decision based on the exclusive games. Don't let yourself get too hung up on the technicality of the PS4 being able to put out 3 more fps and be a higher res. Bottom line, they each perform great and deliver a good gaming medium to deliver entertainment.

    I think [MENTION=20]Solitude[/MENTION] can confess as to how vividly/highly I spoke of it when I had sold the Xbone to him.

    I am a fan of both. There are some things that each console does better than the other. Get used to it, but don't get hung up by it.

    Thanks for your excellent comment. It was difficult when the range of opinionated comments came in from the PS4 owners.

    a PC is a master of all trades, which is why it is and always will be the master race.

    I've been pondering getting an Xbone again, Forza 6 is around the corner

    I've got the PS4 and I love it, but I have never owners an Xbone so I couldn't give a fare opinion.

    As said before, honestly the only thing to do is look at the exclusive games and see what you prefer.
